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

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)

As a quality assurance measure, data is also collected from external
sources with own, direct data collection.

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

