A data overview is available in the global energy statistics app
Total Energy Consumption
Austria's energy consumption per capita is 3.7 toe, which is 22% higher than the EU average (2021). The country's electricity consumption stands at 7 470 kWh, i.e., 30% above the EU average.
Graph: CONSUMPTION TRENDS BY ENERGY SOURCE (Mtoe)
Total energy consumption rebounded by 5% in 2021, after a 5% decrease in 2020 due to the Covid outbreak. It remained stable over 2010-2019 at normal climate (most of the variations are explained by fluctuations in weather conditions).

Crude Oil Production
Oil production is low and stable (0.6 Mt): it covers less than 5% of the country's needs. In 2021, Austria imported 7.6 Mt of crude oil, mainly from Kazakhstan (39%), Libya (22%), Iraq (21%), and Russia (8%, -2 points), mainly by pipeline from Trieste to the Schwechat refinery.
The country produced 7 Mt of oil products in 2021 (-15%) and imported 6 Mt of oil products, mainly from neighbouring countries.

Oil Products Consumption
Oil consumption rebounded by 5% to 11.3 Mtoe after a 9% decline in 2020. It increased by an average of 1.1%/year between 2014 and 2019 after a decrease between 2005 and 2014 (2.2%/year).
Graph: OIL CONSUMPTION (Mt)
Transport absorbed 62% of the oil products, up from 58% in 2010, while the share of buildings (residential and services sector) slightly contracted from 15% in 2010 to 13% in 2021. The share of non-energy uses is stable at around 15%.

Power Consumption
Electricity consumption increased by 5% in 2021 to 67 TWh after a 3.4% decrease in 2020. Over 2009 and 2019, it increased by an average of 1.1%/year.
Graph: ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION (TWh)
Industry accounts for around 41% of electricity consumption, with paper, machinery, chemical, and steel as main consumers. The share of buildings (residential and services sectors) amounts to 48%, of which 30% is for residential (+2 points in 10 years) and 18% for services.
Renewable in % Electricity Production
The national target to increase the share of renewables in final consumption to 34% by 2020 has been exceeded by 2.5 points. According to the #mission2030 strategy and NECP, the objective is to raise this share to 46-50% in 2030 (36.4% in 2021), of which 100% for electricity (69% in 2021) and 14% in transport (9.4% in 2021).

CO2 Fuel Combustion/CO2 Emissions
In 2018, the government revised its energy and climate strategy with the aim of achieving the EU GHG emission goals by 2030, equivalent to a 36% reduction in GHG emissions in non-ETS sectors from 2005 levels. The government announced in 2020 its objective of achieving carbon neutrality by 2040. In order to reach this target, the country has put a price on CO2 emissions. GHG emissions (without LULUCF) reached 77.5 MtCO2eq in 2021 according to the latest national inventory, which is 15.7% below their 2005 level and around 2% above their 1990 level.
