 28-2-2017: regional meeting concerning the draft for the Regional background paper. The issue was regional and municipal energy statistics. In the region the regional policy instrument for energy and climate issues is the document “Hållbar utveckling och god livsmiljö i Kalmar län” and specifically the goal “Miljökvalitetsmålet –Begränsad klimatpåverkan”, but there is also a specific action plan called “NoOil”.Over the years the municipalities in the region have, in varying degrees, compiled energy statistics for different areas or objects connected to these documents.

-2010 The energy Agency for Southeast Sweden supported some municipalities with statistics for the year 2008 –a majority of the municipalities participated.

-2014 a regional public procurement was carried out to procure regional and county Statistics for the year 2012 –a minority of the municipalities participated.

-2015 the national networks of County administrative boards procured the same thing for the year 2013 but only for the entire county and not for the respective municipality.

-2017 the national networks of County administrative boards procured the same thing as for the year 2015. As comparison for the statistics the year 1990, 2005 and 2007 have been used.

To do: 

• ESS will look into what information that will be compiled in Support Regional Analysis document.

• ESS and KC will look into how CO2-emissions for different sectors can be compiled and presented.  

•ESS and RK will look into how new milstones should be developed so that available statistics from eg from the Central Statistics Office can be used for follow-up .
