(1) 93 % methane. (2) Member States may apply other values depending on the type of wood most used in the respective Member State. (3) Applicable when energy savings are calculated in primary energy terms using a bottom-up approach based on final energy consumption. For savings in kWh electricity Member States may apply a default coefficient of 2,5. Member States may apply a different coefficient provided they can justify it. Source: Eurostat. | |||
