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 2016 report shows:

Supply:

• almost all of Jersey’s energy supply was imported; about 2% was produced on-Island as electricity generated by the energy-from-waste plant
• petroleum products accounted for almost two-thirds (65%) of Jersey’s energy supply; electricity (imported and on-Island generated) accounted for the remainder (35%)
• Jersey’s total primary energy supply (TPES) was 3% higher than in 2015, driven by an increase in the importation of petroleum products used for on-Island electricity generation

Use:

• total final energy consumption (FEC) was 2% higher than in 2015
• energy consumption per head of resident population was 1.5 toe and was below that of the UK (2.1 toe)
• more than a third (37%) of energy used was consumed by households, a similar proportion (35%) was used for transportation (predominantly road transport) and over a quarter (28%) was used by industry and government
