Country Practice Template

As part of the preparation of the Energy Statistics Compilers Manual (ESCM), a country practice template has been developed by the Oslo Group in cooperation with UNSD. The template provides a common format for countries to report and share their practices in the collection, compilation and dissemination of energy statistics. The use of a common format is expected to facilitate the review and the comparisons of country practices and will feed into the preparation of the ESCM.

The Country Practice Template together with the Instructions can be accessed below. (The same information is also available at the Oslo Group Website). National agencies engaged in the collection and compilation of energy statistics are encouraged to complete the Country Practice Template and send it to oslogroup@ssb.no and energy_stat@un.org.
