Methodology

Transport pages combine two complementary Eurostat datasets. nrg_bal_c provides historical series and 2024 totals. nrg_d_traq provides fuel, vehicle and sub-mode detail, with 2023 currently the latest year for 25 countries. Reference years are always shown explicitly.

The detailed nrg_d_traq dataset currently covers 25 countries and ends in 2023, while nrg_bal_c is available through 2024.
