        National Survey on Energetic Consumption in Private Households (2018)

        The Secretariat of Energy (SENER) and The Commission for the Efficient Use of Energy (CONUEE), with the collaboration and support of the National Institute for Statistics (INEGI), developed the first National Survey for Energy Consumption in the Household Sector (ENCEVI).

        The survey was intended to generate statistical information about the use patterns of various energy sources at the residential level, so as to get data about their management. The instrument was applied in the first, second and fourth trimester in 2018. First results were published in November 2018.

        National Energy Effciency Database

        The National Energy Efficiency Data-Framework (NEED) was set up to provide a better understanding of energy use and energy efficiency in domestic and non-domestic buildings in Great Britain. The data framework matches gas and electricity consumption data, collected for BEIS sub-national energy consumption statistics, with information on energy efficiency measures installed in homes, from the Homes Energy Efficiency Database (HEED), Green Deal, the Energy Company Obligation (ECO) and the Feed-in Tariff scheme. It also includes data about property attributes and household characteristics, obtained from a range of sources.
