NO This document provides an overview of the Energy Footprint (EF) methodology as applied in the Global Footprint Tool, updated as of October 2024. It outlines the definition and calculation of EF, which attributes global primary energy production—both direct and indirect—to domestic final demand across 164 countries. The report details the use of a multi-regional input-output (MRIO) framework, specifically leveraging the GLORIA MRIO database, to capture the supply-chain-wide energy flows linked to economic activities. Disaggregation into six energy categories (including coal and peat, oil and natural gas, nuclear, solid biofuels, captured energy, and heat) is explained, along with guidance on forecasting, validation, and quality assurance processes.
