Condensing power

www.stat.fi/meta/kas/lauhdutusvoima_en.html

Electric energy produced by cooling down steam with water without using the heat energy of the steam.

Electricity intensity

www.stat.fi/meta/kas/sahkointensitee_en.html

Electricity intensity is defined as the ratio of total consumption of electricity to gross domestic product.

Electricity supply

www.stat.fi/meta/kas/sahkon_hankinta_en.html

Electricity supply refers to the total combined volume of produced electricity and net imports of electricity. Net imports refer to imports of electricity less exports of electricity.

Energy balance sheet

www.stat.fi/meta/kas/energiatase_en.html

Energy balance sheet describes the conversion of primary energy to final consumption. The balance sheet contains separate entries for primary energy supply, stock changes, energy production and tran…

Final energy consumption

www.stat.fi/meta/kas/energian_loppuk_en.html

Final energy consumption measures the consumption of electricity and heat, fuels for space heating, transport fuels and fuels for industrial processes. It differs from total consumption in that energ…
