Data calculation/treatment
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.

About this dataset
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.
Purpose of collection
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.
Method of collection/Data provider
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.
