DECC release Local Authority Level Energy Statistics

March 2012: DECC have just released their latest breakdown of national energy statistics broken down to the i. local authority level, and also sub local authority level via datasets at ii. Middle Layer Super Output Areas and iii. Lower Level Super Output Areas. All datasets linked below are in Excel and can be downloaded from DECC’s website here. Direct links to the datasets are also available below.

Sub-national authority electricity consumption statistics 2005 to 2010
Time series of data for 2005-2010 of electricity consumption of all London boroughs, including average electricity consumption per borough (both domestic and non-domestic) and number of meters per borough. Note – the spreadsheet shows that the London average domestic electricity consumption at 3,988kWh is just below the UK average of 4,148kWh
Middle Layer Super Output Area (MLSOA) domestic electricity estimates 2010
All London boroughs represented, with domestic electricity consumption for 2010 only broken down to around 30 MLSOA (Middle Layer Super Output Areas) for each borough.
Middle Layer Super Output Area (MLSOA) non-domestic electricity estimates 2010
Similar to above, but with average electricity consumption at the MLSOA level for non-domestic energy users.
Middle Layer Super Output Area (MLSOA) domestic gas estimates 2010
Middle Layer Super Output Area (MLSOA) non-domestic gas estimates 2010
Middle Layer Super Output Area (MLSOA) domestic electricity estimates 2010: Look-up spreadsheets
Middle Layer Super Output Area (MLSOA) domestic gas estimates 2010: Look-up spreadsheets
Middle Layer Super Output Area (MLSOA) non-domestic gas estimates 2010: Look-up spreadsheets
Lower Layer Super Output Area (LLSOA) domestic electricity estimates 2010
Finer resolution at the LLSOA with boroughs divided down to 100+ areas
Lower Layer Super Output Area (LLSOA) domestic gas estimates 2010
Lower Layer Super Output Area (LLSOA) domestic electricity estimates 2010: Look-up spreadsheets
Lower Layer Super Output Area (LLSOA) domestic gas estimates 2010: Look-up spreadsheets

There are also a number of articles in the latest issue of  DECC’s Energy Trends which provides some background and summaries of the outputs of these datasets.
