Access on Dotstat

Overview

The World Energy Statistics online data service contains key energy statistics for 156 countries and 35 regional aggregates. Data are provided in original units for the different types of coal, oil, natural gas, renewables and waste, as well as for electricity and heat. In general, the data are available from 1971 (1960 for OECD countries) to 2022. Preliminary 2023 data are available for select countries, products, and flows.

This service is updated two times a year with a progressively broader geographical coverage: in April and July, the final edition with global data for year-2.


Important licence information

Single user, multi-user or Enterprise?

Limited user licences (1 user, 5 users and 10 users) are appropriate as long as only the corresponding number of users can access or view the data. 

If more than 10 users need to access or view the data, you should purchase an Enterprise licence. If these users are in different locations or part of a subsidiary or affiliate, you should purchase a Global Enterprise licence.

If you intend to put the data in a shared application, platform or system, you should purchase an Enterprise licence. A Global Enterprise licence is needed if users viewing or accessing the data/derived data are in different locations or part of a subsidiary or an affiliate. 

For more details, see our terms and conditions.


Do I need a contract or permission?

If you are doing work for clients, i.e. third parties, you need to enter into a separate Agreement and pay a fee as this usage is not permitted under our standard terms and conditions. 

If you intend to use the data in any type of modelling for the purpose of creating derived data or derived products, and any services to distribute or display such derived products you need to sign an Agreement and pay a fee.

If you intend to have such usage or any usage falling outside of our Terms and Conditions, please fill in this questionnaire and return to datasales@iea.org.


The IEA reserves the right to check the customer's compliance with the terms and conditions.

Documentation

Expanded product description and database documentation. In January 2025, IEA changed its primary data sharing platform from Beyond 2020 (IVT files) to .Stat Data Explorer. The datasets in .Stat Data Explorer include different short names than the IVT and TXT files to improve harmonization across IEA datasets. The database documentation has been revised accordingly, with legacy documentation remaining available for users of discontinued IVT and TXT files.
