Final Consumption of Energy

Final consumption of energy measures the consumption of final energy products, i.e. fuels used for electricity, district heating and space heating, and transportation fuels and industrial processing fuels. The difference between total and final consumption is lost through transformation and transmission losses of energy.

Final consumption of energy in 2023 (provisional data):

• 1 022 PJ (284 TWh, 24.4 Mtoe)
• 182 GJ / capita (50.7 MWh / capita, 4.36 toe / capita)

Final consumption of energy in 2022:

• 1 032 PJ (287 TWh, 24.7 Mtoe)
• 186 GJ / capita (51.5 MWh / capita, 4.43 toe / capita)

Final energy consumption decreased by 1%. Consumption declined by 2% in industry and transport and increased by 0.5% in heating of buildings and by 0.9% in other uses.
