• Why energy accounting ?• Short history and organisation• Main components Dutch energy accounts:
1) energy flow accounts
2) asset accounts for oil and gas• Other environmental accounts related to energy• Main users• Conclusions
Why energy accounts ?
• High policy demand for energy data• Part of integrated framework comparison macro-economic parameters, international comparibility etc.• Link physical data with economic data: taxes, subsidies• Indicators, analyses, input for modelling• Produce data for National Accounts• Compilation of air emission accounts
Short history…
• 1995-2000: Pilot projects for physical flow accounts and asset accounts
• 2004-2006: Development and implementation of energy flow accounts
• 2006-2007: Development and implementation of energy asset accounts
• 2008 onwards: regular compilation of energy flow and asset accounts
Organisation of the work
• Department of National accounts• Environmental accounts: 5 fte (2009)• Compilation of the energy accounts (flows and assets): 0,3 fte• No surveys: integration of existing statistics and accounts
Energy flow accounts
• Supply and use of energy products by economic activities• Both monetary and physical• Residence principle• Allocation of energy supply and use to ISIC

Energy asset accounts
• Physical and monetary balances for oil and gas• Opening stock, new discoveries, extraction, revaluation, closing stocks• Data sources:
1) Report oil and gas in the Netherlands
2) National accounts
Volume and value of the assets for natural gas in the Netherlands

Main users of the Dutch energy accounts
• Energy research centre of the Netherlands• Netherlands environmental assessment agency• Ministry of economic affairs
• Sustainability monitor (Statistics Netherlands and
several research institutes)
• General public
Future developments
• Long time series (1950 – present)• Renewable energy• Input-output analyses
Conclusions
• Demand for energy accounts in the Netherlands• Important indicators• Once implemented the compilation takes relatively little time• Collateral benefits: National accounts, air emissions
