Data Compilation in Finland for Energy Statistics
In Finland, data compilation for energy statistics involves various sources and methods. The process includes surveys, calculations, and reports from different industries and associations. These data sources provide insights into energy consumption, production, and trends in the country. The information collected helps in understanding the energy market and making informed decisions regarding energy policies and planning for the future.

Data Sources and Data Compilation in Finland Canberra, 3rd of May Ville Vertanen
Energy data collection of Statistics Finland 2010 Questionnaire / calculation model Frequency Source /coverage Production of electricity and heat annually survey of 250-300 plants Calculation model for air emissions (Ilmari) annually based on VAHTI data (Monitoring and Environment Loading Data System) Monthly consumption and stocks of coal quarterly coverage: 95 % of coal consumption Sales and prices of fuel chips quarterly Largest companies Calculation model for space heating annually based on building and apartments register (among others) Energy use in Manufacturing annually 2 100 establishments (stratified sample). Oil refinery report monthly Neste Oil company Sales of petroleum products monthly Few companies which are not members of KL (Finnish Oil Federation) Ville Vertanen 12/03/2025
Other data sources of energy statistics (1) Source Frequency Data Associations in the field of energy Finnish Energy Industries /Electricity monthly, annually Electricity generation, imports, exports, consumption, fuels ( ) capacities Finnish Energy Industries /District heating monthly, annually Production of district heat, fuels (also from combined production of electricity and district heat), price of district heating Finnish Glass House Growers Association * Estimate over energy consumption of greenhouses Finnish Natural Gas Association annually Supply and consumption of natural gas Finnish Biogas Association /University of Joensuu annually Biogas register Finnish Heat Pump Association SULPU annually Heat pump statistics Suomen turvetuottajat ry (=Finnish Manufacturers' Association of Peat) annually Production, Sales and prices of peat (data from members) Association of Finnish Peat Industries 1/4, Production, Sales of peat, division of consumption annually Finnish Wind Power Association /VTT Technical Research Cetre of Finland monthly Wind electricity, wind energy statistics Sales of petroleum products, commercial stocks, preliminary data of imports and exports Finnish Oil and Gas Federation ( KKL) monthly, annually Ville Vertanen 12/03/2025
Other data sources of energy statistics (2) Source Frequency Data Authorities Energy Market Authority monthly, annually Prices of electricity and gas, emission trading registry (including fuel consumption) National Emergency Supply Agency National stockpile levels of petroleum products, stock changes (for IEA reporting) Institute of Meteorology annually Degree days Information Service Central of Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry * Market garden register (a survey), consumption of fuels in greenhouses Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority 1/4 Imports of uranium Board of Customs monthly Foreign Trade Statistics (Ultika database) Monitoring and Environment Loading Data System (VAHTI - registry) annually Fuels and emissions Ville Vertanen 12/03/2025
Other data sources of energy statistics (3) Others Association of Finnish Local and Regional Authorities annually Small heating plants owned by municipalities Finnish Forest Research Institute (Metla) annually Consumption of solid wood fuels in energy production, wood fuel use in residential buildings (every 10 years) Solpros Oy annually Solar electricity and heat VTT Technical Research Cetre of Finland /TYKO and MEERI emission calculation models annually Fuels for domestic navigation and working machinery VTT Technical Research Cetre of Finland 1/4 Production, exports, consumption and prices of wood pellets (partially transfering to Metla) Ville Vertanen 12/03/2025
Energy use in Manufacturing, Methodology (1) Data on energy is to be primarily derived from administrative sources Environmental Administration s Compliance Monitoring Data System (VAHTI) Those liable for environmental permit Fuels Data of the Energy Market Authority Those liable for emissions permit Fuels Energiateollisuus ry Those within main grid industry Data on consumption of electricity Ville Vertanen 12/03/2025
Energy use in Manufacturing, Methodology (2) Rest of data are collected with a sample survey 1. Large energy consumers, selection to sample 100%: Enterprise/Establishment Belongs to the emissions trading sector (external source) Is obliged to have an environmental permit (external source) Belongs to the main grid industry (external source) Employs at least 1,000 persons Uses an unusual fuel Operates in an unusual industry (always at least 15 observations per stratum) 2. Medium size energy consumers Sample raising of data (Method: Horwitz-Thompson) 3. Small energy consumers (micro enterprises/establishments) Small-scale sample raising of data (Method: Horwitz- Thompson) As a quality assurance measure, data is also collected from external sources with own, direct data collection. Ville Vertanen 12/03/2025
Energy use in Manufacturing, Methodology (3) Sample size 2,100 (of 35,000 establishments) large energy consumers 990; medium-sized 1140 (sample); small 800 (sample, every 4th year) Electronic data collection (Internet) Response rate ~80% Electronically 88% Quality control Change compared to year before (amount of energy used, energy content) New source of energy reported, etc Ville Vertanen 12/03/2025
