DA energy datasets

25 January 2012

Aether is leading new work for DECC to identify, review and assess available energy datasets that could be used to improve the UK and Devolved Administrations greenhouse gas inventories. The project team consists of Aether and AEA, who have a thorough understanding of the current data limitations and the current methods employed to derive the DA datasets. The project will primarily focus on solid and liquid fuels.

 

The aims of the project are to:

1. Identify new and existing energy consumption datasets that could be used to improve the UK and DA inventories

2. Map out how existing data flows through the DA inventories

3. Review potential new datasets to assess their usefulness

4. Outline methods that could be used to integrate data into an improved UK and DA inventory.
