A view of the Top 30 companies active in the Electricity Sector |
Electricity production in the European Union (EU) slightly increased between 2002 and 2001 by 0.6%.
The highest increase was registered, Netherlands (+3.5), Denmark (3.3%), Spain (2.8%) and Belgium (2.5%).
The exceptional increase in Luxembourg is
due to a new cogeneration plant coming on stream. There was a substantial
decrease Sweden (-9.1%), a moderate one in Greece and Portugal (-1.6%) and
Ireland (-0.4%).
With regard the structure of electricity production in the EU it can be
seen that in 2002:
Conventional thermal power generation
increased by 4.4% and accounted for 52% of total production.
Electricity generation from nuclear
power stations slightly increased by 0.4% and represented 33.2% of total
production.
Hydroelectric power generation
substantially fell (-15.9%) and accounted for 11.8% of the total.
Electricity production from renewables increased by 20.5% representing 2.9% of the total production.
In 2002 electricity exchange has shown an increase in respect to the previous year. For the EU 15, the share of the sum of exports plus imports as a percentage of total net generation is 16.7% and it was 15.5% in 2001. Total net imports for the EU 15 were 36.9 TWh representing 1.4% of the production. Italy, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Finland remain the largest importers.
The EU 15 Maximum Net Generating Capacity in 2002 decreased by 0.6%. Decreases were registered in Denmark (-3.4%), Austria (-2.0%). Large increases were registered in Ireland (+14.1%) followed by the one in Spain (+7.5%).
Energy Supplied in the European Union amounted to 2555.4 TWh in 2002. There were substantial increases in Spain (2.4%), Finland (3.3%) and Ireland (2.6%).
The situation and performance of the electricity sector in the Candidate Countries (CCs) in 2002 and the changes compared to the previous year can be summarized as follow:
Electricity production in the CCs increased by 1.7%. Large increases were in Turkey (6.5%), Romania (3.3%), Slovakia (2.7%), Czech Republic (2.3%) and Lithuania. Decreases were observed in Poland and Bulgaria.
With regard the structure of electricity production in the CCs it can be seen that in 2002:
Nuclear electricity generation accounted for 17.1% of
the total production with an increase of 10% compared to 2001.
Conventional Thermal power generation represented 69.4%
of total with a decrease of 2.5%.
Hydroelectric power generation increased of 17.3% accounting for 13.4% of the total. The share of electricity production from renewables sources is at 0.1% of the total.
Electricity production from Renewables accounted only for 0.1% of the total electricity production.
In 2002, total net exports for the CCs were 31.1 TWh and electricity exchange, as the share of the sum of exports plus imports as a percentage of total net generation, has increased from 15.1% to 19.5%.
The Maximum net generating capacity for the 13 CCs increased by 5.1%. Turkey (12.4%), Romania (10.6%) and Czech Republic (5.5%) registered large increase.
Energy supplied in the CCs amounted to 487.2 TWh registering an increase of 0.5% in respect of the previous year.
