Why the primary data from enterprise is important?

Energy balance gives a whole picture of a

country’s energy supply and demand, the energy

transformation, and the relative importance of the

different fuel supplies in their contribution to the

economy. Therefore a good energy balance sheet

plays a significant role, but in order to compile a

good Energy balance sheet, first of all, the reliable

basis data of enterprises is a must.

China energy consumption by sectors in 2009

The energy survey in industry sector For the industrial enterprises above designated size, we do comprehensive survey quarterly. The number of these enterprise is about 300 thousand, their out put values take up about 90% of whole industry sector.

Some related data resource

China’s energy statistics is in charge of the energy purchase, consumption, storage, and conversion. The gross industrial output value and output of industrial products is collected by other department of National Bureau of Statistical of China. And we also get electricity consumption data from China Electricity Council.

The method of ensure the data

First, improve the data check program, and ensure the primary data quality.

When the enterprise report the survey, we use software to do the primary checking process. We also explore timely and effectively the inquiring methods, and continuously add the checking factors so the data input mistake can be find out quickly.

The method of ensure the data

Second, focusing on the key industrial enterprises.

Third, focusing the data evaluation on the district and city level.

In China, the energy statistics is reported level by level.

Fourth, enhancing the training to the junior officer of energy statistics.

The Department of Energy Statistics and each local statistical bureau offered energy statistical data processing training program and many special seminars every year.
