Workshop — Paris, France

2nd InterEnerStat Workshop

Background

The main objective of the workshop is to explore ways and means of further strengthening harmonisation and cooperation between organisations in order to (a) improve transparency, coverage, timeliness and quality of energy statistics and (b) reduce the burden passed to countries and organisations in data reporting. Major progresses have been achieved on data quality, coverage, timeliness, harmonisation, training, and cooperation since the 1st InterEnerStat workshop in November 2005. However, organisations are not necessarily aware of what the others do. InterEnerStat gives the opportunity to everyone to hear about what the others have done, do or will be doing in the near future. The workshop will then be divided into two parts: On Day 1, a "shopping" day to learn from each other (and "shop" ideas) about recent developments and improvements. Day 2 will be dedicated to a brainstorming session to examine various ways and means to strengthen cooperation and harmonisation.
