Traduction de «Mtoe » (Anglais → Français) :

At the moment, by convention, primary electricities of renewable origin are accounted on their thermal equivalent per Joule effect (1 TWh = 0.086 Mtoe), whereas electricity of nuclear origin, which is also considered as a primary electricity, is accounted on the basis of the heat produced in the reactor (1 TWh = 0.26 Mtoe by convention).

This is due to more than double by 2010 from 69 mtoe in 2003, i.e. in the Commission's judgment an increase in biomass use to approximately 150-187 mtoe is possible by 2010.

8. Considers that, in order to reduce the environmental impact of the EU’s 1725 mtoe of energy consumption, approximately half of which is imported and some 1500 mtoe of which consists of climate damaging fossil fuel use, the EU’s energy strategy should concentrate initially on the total substitution of fossil fuel use in the transport sector by 2030 and a substantial increase in the use of renewables in the electricity generating sector with a view to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 60-80% over 1990 levels by 2050;

C. whereas total energy consumption in the EU currently stands at 1725 m tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe), i.e. 38% oil, 23% gas, 18% coal, 15% nuclear and 6% renewable energy sources, and total energy consumption could reach 1900 Mtoe within 15 years (by 2020),

4. Notes that world total final energy consumption grew from 4 549 Mtoe in 1973 to 6 646 Mtoe, an increase of 46.1% over 25 years; notes that EU consumption is projected to grow by 22% in the period 1990 to 2020 and concludes that with demand rising faster in the world outside the EU, particularly in non OECD countries, there will be increased competing demand from third countries for the energy needed by EU Member States; and draws the conclusion from this that the EU must make efforts to ensure energy demand does not rise as forecast. Every available effort must be made to increase energy efficiency and energy-saving, and reduce depe ...[+++]ndence on imports;
