Energy statistics

The Swiss Energy Statistics (ENSTAT) published by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy (SFOE) provides a comprehensive and consistent set of statistical data on the Swiss energy system. It is aligned with the relevant guidelines of the UN, the International Energy Agency (IEA) and Eurostat.

The list of publications contains all energy statistics publications, along with their scheduled publication dates. It is published annually in January. In addition to their use in statistical publications, the majority of the data is also made available as open government data (OGD) (see the “Links” section, respectively).
