Consumption of energy depends strongly on weather conditions. Natural gas or heating oil bills for instance will be noticeably higher in severe winters. If the temperature decreases below a certain value, "heating threshold", more energy is consumed due to increased need for space heating. Taking this into account, Eurostat launched a project aiming at the development and implementation of a common method for the climatic correction of final energy consumption for space heating purposes in the 28 Member States of the European Union. Temperature corrected energy consumption data help interpreting energy consumption trends and contribute to the design and measurement of policy goals.
