The Data Demands of the Statistical Review of World Energy
No analysis of energy markets can be done without a robust, reliable and comparable dataset relating to resources, production, consumption and prices of the various energy sources. Energy analysts, academics, but also the world of industry, environmentalists know this well. However, it is not always easy to find all this data, especially with regular frequency, global coverage, and free of charge. For this reason a publication such as the Statistical Review of World Energy is essential and every year it is awaited from all. We spoke about this highly respected data publication, its genesis, and its evolution, with Ian Jones, Head of Knowledge, Insight, and Research at the Energy Institute.
