Energy consumption
How much energy does the manufacturing industry consume annually in enterprises with more than 20 employees? See consumption and changes since 2012 broken down by industry and type of energy. You can also get a breakdown by municipality.
Besides energy consumption in manufacturing industries, you can also see how many dwellings that have a wood-burning or wood-pellet stove. As well as get information about households' consumption of fuelwood and wood pellets for heating.
Selected statistics on Energy consumption
Manufacturing industries with the highest energy consumption
The energy census for the manufacturing industry, is a primary source, which means that data is formed in this census. All companies that, according to the Danish Business Register, are located in industry (DB07-branch 10-33) and parts of raw material extraction (DB07-branch 08-09), and that have at least 20 employees, are selected for the statistics. All selected companies are contacted for reporting.

Dwellings with wood-burning stoves
The data basis for the 2023 survey is a web-based survey sent to a sample of 49,325 households, stratified by housing type: single-family houses (typically detached houses, terraced houses, etc.), apartments, and holiday homes used for year-round living. Single-family houses are further divided by primary heating source, i.e., whether they have district heating according to the BBR (Building and Housing Register). Dormitories and residential institutions are not included in the selection. Holiday homes without year-round residence are addressed by asking respondents who indicated that they own or have access to a holiday home to complete a questionnaire on heating sources and the use of firewood, etc.

On the statistics – documentation, sources and method
See the documentation of statistics to learn more:
The purpose of the energy census for the manufacturing industry is to analyze volume and composition of the energy consumed by the manufacturing industry.
Data on energy consumption by manufacturing industry is provided bi-annually from 1980 and latest 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2024.
The purpose of the experimental weekly statistics on natural gas is to provide an early indicator of trends in consumption of natural gas and the import dependency. The statistics show weekly data on storage and consumption of natural gas in the current year compared to previous years.
The purpose of the study is to assess the number of wood stoves, etc., and to calculate the consumption of firewood and other biomass for heating in Danish households' homes and holiday homes. The results of the study are used, among other things, for the Danish Energy Agency's annual energy statistics and the Ministry of the Environment's assessment of emissions from wood stoves in Denmark. The study is based on a survey sent to a sample of households in Denmark. The study is conducted every two years, and reports dating back to 2009 can be found on the Danish Energy Agency's website. Statistics Denmark carried out the current study in collaboration with the Danish Energy Agency.
