Summary
The Energy Trends report looks at the supply and use of various fuels such as electricity, gas and petroleum products. It also focuses on changes over time.
The 2011 report shows:
- Total final energy consumption in Jersey in 2011 was 168,000 toe (1.95 million MWh)
- total final consumption in 2011 was 3% lower than in 2010
- this decrease in final consumption on an annual basis was predominantly due to a reduction in the use of kerosene for domestic heating purposes; the consumption of gas also decreased
- in contrast, electricity consumption increased by 2% in 2011 and road fuel consumption increased marginally, by less than 1%
- almost three-fifths of all energy used in Jersey in 2011 was a type of petroleum product, with road fuels accounting for about a quarter of total final energy demand
- almost all of Jersey's energy supply is imported, with less than 2% produced on-Island, as electricity generated by the new energy-from-waste (EFW) plant
