EurObserv'ER

Share of each ressource in the renewable primary energy production in EU in 2006

Since 1998, The EurObserv'ER barometer measures the progress made by renewable energies in each sector and in each member State of the European Union in an as up-to-date way as possible (with figures less than 12 months old). EurObserv'ER produces a series of figure-backed indicators covering energetic, technological and economic dimensions.

Every two months one barometer dedicated to one particular renewable energy sector is published in the magazine Systèmes Solaires - le Journal des Énergies Renouvelables and on PDF version. Moreover, onec a year an overview barometer gathered the main indicators published during the year and complete them with additionnal renewable sectors which has not been detailed.

The main objectives of our barometers are the following:
» Monitor and analyse the development of renewable energy sectors in the European Union
» Evaluate this progression in comparison of the White Paper objectives for 2010
» Disseminate the results of the investigation to European journalists and energy actors
» Enable all webvisitors to download the barometer

For 2008 - 2010 a new programme has been concluded with the Commission including new features:
» the widening of the field of its investigation to include the two new member States, i.e. a total of 27 countries ;
» the development of new indicators to measure socio-economic impacts in the European RES sector.
All barometers are sactif for free from this website

SIG

A new tool is available on line to consult data from the EurObserv'ER Barometers. It's a module that allows internet users to set their own query parameters themselves by crossing a sector, an indicator (economic, energetic or political), a year and a geographic zone (a country or a group of countries) at the same time. The results are displayed on maps of Europe that also provide information on sector potentials. The assembled data results from the Barometers published since 2001. The system can also be used to download desired results in the form of a PDF or Excel format file. The EurObserv'ER Barometers Project is supported by the European Commission.
