Annex VI of Regulation (EU) No 691/2011. This act is in preparation and scheduled to be adopted in the fourth quarter of 2015. A list of energy products for the European environmental economic accounts is an essential element to determine the scope of these statistics, to allow comparability of data across countries and to ensure the internal consistency (balancing) of the physical energy flow accounts. Regulation (EC) No 1099/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 October 2008 on energy statistics 2 provides a list of energy products in Annex B, covering most of the energy products needed in physical energy flow accounts.

Appropriate consultations are being carried out during the preparatory work, including at expert level. The Working Group on Environmental Accounts and the Working Group on Environment Expenditure Statistics were consulted in a joint meeting in March 2015. The Directors of sectoral and environmental statistics and accounts (DIMESA) were consulted in June 2015.

Both the European Parliament and the Council have been duly informed and invited to participate in expert meetings.

3. Conclusions

No conclusion can be drawn yet as the power to adopt delegated acts conferred on the Commission pursuant to Regulation (EU) No 691/2011 on European environmental economic accounts has not been exercised.
