TRANSCRIPT
ETMS – Prague meeting
16th of October 2012, Stockholm
Nordregio collection (NUTS level)
Nordregio collection: gaps• Goal: At least 3 years covered since year 2000 for ESPON countries
• Focus on filling gaps for the EU28+4 countries
• EU28+4: most of the identified gaps were for Lichtenstein followed by Switzerland
• Lichtenstein, still missing:- At-risk-of-poverty-rate- Income as PPS based on final consumption per inhabitant- Share of renewable energy in final consumption- Total Intramural R&D Expenditure in Millions of PPS
• Some variables and countries (Germany, UK): only data on NUTS1 level: “at-risk-of-poverty-rate” and “households with broadband access” indicators
• Changed administrative regions (Germany, Italy, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland): data is missing for certain regions for almost all variables. NSI’s contacted for estimations or methods to calculate not much response yet
Nordregio collection: RIATE (ESPON DB) • RIATE (ESPON DB/M4D project) was contacted for calculated transfer keys from 2006 to 2010
NUTS and pre-2010 data
• Goal for ESPON to create longer time series (and to get more data in the NUTS2010 nomenclature) but due to a limited budget and the time needed not much has been completed
• Some reports produced on methods to deal with the changing regions due to “territorial split”. Four possible methods were highlighted in the “ESPON M4D – First Interim Report”:
1. the ESPON OLAP Cube2. gridding and smoothing3. The smallest common part4. Estimation of missing values thanks to other statistical dimensions • Technical report: “Missing data related to the change in NUTS structure” from June 2013
contains methods for possible usage
• Pre-2010 data: Not much from the NUTS2006 datasets, but that they have the entire NUTS1999 Eurostat DB
Western Balkans
• Western Balkans not in focus so far
• We could add population data that we already received (to be aggregated from LAU level), but time consuming
• Possibility to add ESPON ITAN data (collected by CNRS EVS)
• Further inquiries with NSI’s and similar institutes for data that we now miss entirely?
Specific issue: Share of Renewable Energy in Final Consumption
• Has been found on NUTS0 level only
• Eurostat: “Share of Renewable Energy in Final Energy Consumption by NUTS 2 regions - %” [env_rfec] is not comparable to “Share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption” [nrg_ind_335a]
• “Share of renewable energy in gross final energy consumption” [nrg_ind_335a] seems to be of better quality and the one that is a EU2020 indicator was chosen
• EEA and IEA: no regional data for this indicator
• NUTS0 level, other sources/indicators:
1. Energy prices? http://www.energy.eu/ “Natural gas, electricity and transport fuels prices”
2. Housing and building-related energy consumption: http://www.entranze.enerdata.eu/
