Total consumption of solar power in New Zealand

The data is always released for the previous year soon after the MBIE Energy Balances are released. For clarity, the ‘end use’ values expressed in the EEUD represent how delivered energy is split between its uses
in given sectors. The end use values do not represent end use energy volumes after efficiencies and losses are accounted for.

Figure.NZ created summary pivot tables in Excel to be able to process aggregated figures.

Energy End Use Database (EEUD) is a unique New Zealand data asset maintained by Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA) enabling insights and analysis of energy use across sectors and technology by government, industry, and academia.

The EEUD provides annual estimates of how energy is used across the New Zealand economy. Delivered energy estimates are provided for fuel types, sectors, end uses and technologies.

Energy use estimates are derived using ‘top down’ approach based on MBIE’s annual high-level sector/fuel energy demand data and proportioned into further disaggregated sectors, end use applications and technology values using ‘bottom up’ data held by EECA.
