Evaluation of eu economies according to emission trends and energy intensity

Economic development of the world is closely linked to the consumption of electricity. Energy is central to improved social and economic well-being, and is indispensable for industrial and commercial wealth generation. But however essential it may be for development, energy is only a means to an end. The end is a sustainable economy and a clean environment, high living standards, prosperity and good health. Energy indicators for sustainable development represent an important component in the national analysis and planning tool kit for achieving sustainable development. The indicators are intended to provide a flexible tool for analysts and decision makers at the national level to better understand their national situations and trends, the impacts of recent policies and the potential impacts of policy changes. The aim of this publication is to present selected indicators such as carbon intensity and energy intensity with their analysis. The development of energy efficiency indicators is determined by changing economy conditions and present needs - monitoring of energy economy and controlling its management towards sustainable development.
