Energy resources during 1.I.- 31.VIII. 2014 - provisional data -
According to the National Institute of Statistics (INS), during 1.I.-31.VIII.2014, the primary energy resources increased by 3.4%, while those of electric energy increased as compared to the same period of previous year, by 8.5 %. The main primary energy resources during 1.I.-31.VIII.2014, amounted to 20993.11 thousand tonnes oil equivalent 2 (toe), increasing by 682.2 thousand toe as against 1.I.-31.VIII.2013.
Domestic production amounted to 14554.9 thousand toe, increasing by 1.4% as against the same period of previous year, while imports amounted to 6438.2 thousand toe, increasing by 8.2%. During this period, electric energy resources amounted to 41772.2 million KWh, increasing by 3285.2 million
KWh (+8.5%) as against the corresponding period of 2013. The increase of electric energy resources was mainly due to increased domestic production, of 3401.1 million KWh (+8.9%).
The thermal power stations production amounted to 17198.0 million KWh increasing by 891.6 million KWh (+5.5 %). The hydroelectric power stations production was 12761.4 million KWh increasing by 1888.1 million kWh (+17.4%), while the production of nuclear power stations was 7637.6 million KWh decreasing by 47.0 million kWh (-0.6%).
The production of wind power stations during 1.I.-31.VIII.2014 was 2945.5 million KWh increasing by 45.1 million KWh and photovoltaic solar energy produced during this period was 973.5 million KWh increasing by 623.3 million KWh, as against the same period of previous year.
The final consumption of electric energy in national economy during this period was 32960.4 million KWh, by 1.1% lower than the corresponding period of 2013; public lighting decreased by 25.1%, while population consumption decreased by 1.6%.
The exports of electric energy amounted to 4632.4 million KWh increasing by 3825.6 million KWh.
The own technological consumption in networks and stations amounted to 4179.4 million KWh decreasing by 168.9 million KWh, by 3.9%, respectively.
