Drivers for data dissemination

Drivers • Fundamental Principles of Official Statistics - Principle 1. …. . official statistics that meet the test of practical utility are to be compiled and made available on an impartial basis by official statistical agencies to honour citizens’ entitlement to public information. (73 rd plenary meeting 29 January 2014) • Communique of this G 20 Ministers Meeting - We also acknowledge the importance of public disclosure of market related information on all energy resources. • Raise visibility of statistics and message from stats (advertising) • Inform Government, business, public, investors © IEA 2017

Drivers - Selected Recommendations from IRES • The dissemination policy should be user oriented, reaching and serving all user groups, including format, and provide quality information • While recognizing the importance of statistical confidentiality, countries should implement those rules in a way to promote access to data while ensuring confidentiality • Countries make their energy data available on a calendar period basis • Countries announce in advance the precise dates when energy statistics will be released • Release dates: - monthly data, within 2 calendar months - quarterly data within 3 calendar months after the end of the reference quarter; - annual data within 15 calendar months after the end of the reference year • Countries are encouraged to harmonize their data with international standards • It is recommended that countries disseminate their energy statistics internationally as soon as they become available to national users and without any additional restrictions. • A glossary of terms should always accompany the disseminated tabulations of energy statistics. © IEA 2017
