The results of the study are used, among other things, for the Danish Energy Agency's annual energy statistics and the Ministry of the Environment's assessment of emissions from wood stoves in Denmark. The study is based on a survey sent to a sample of households in Denmark. The study is conducted every two years, and reports dating back to 2009 can be found on the Danish Energy Agency's website. Statistics Denmark carried out the current study in collaboration with the Danish Energy Agency., Statistical presentation, The statistics calculate the number of homes and holiday homes that are entirely or partially heated by wood stoves, etc., and the proportion these homes represent of the total housing stock. Additionally, the total consumption of firewood, etc., corresponding to the year 2023 is calculated. The results are presented as totals and broken down by geography, primary heat sources, wood stove types, and housing types., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The firewood survey is a sample-based survey. The interviews were collected via a web-based questionnaire, with approximately 20,000 responses most recently collected. The selected respondents are scaled to a national level using background information from population and housing statistics registers. The results are adjusted for non-responses, and data is error-checked at both micro and macro levels. During data processing, a limited number of responses are corrected due to inconsistencies or obviously incorrect answers. Household use of firewood, wood briquettes, and wood pellets is converted from physical quantities to total energy consumption based on standard values for energy content., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The survey was developed with support from a working group with representatives from the Danish Energy Agency and the Danish Environmental Protection Agency, who use the results for calculating energy consumption and particle emissions from wood-burning stoves. Additionally, the statistics are of interest to others concerned with energy and the environment. As the survey is new under Statistics Denmark, there is no experience yet with user satisfaction., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, There will always be errors associated with sample-based and questionnaire-based statistics. The survey framework was reviewed and quality assured before distribution, but it is rare to avoid identifying sources of error afterward. The results of the statistics are compared with previous, relevant studies on wood consumption, etc., and deviations are to be expected due to normal sampling uncertainty, minor differences in data processing, and real changes in the prevalence and consumption patterns regarding heating in private homes and holiday homes., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The survey is conducted every two years, and the publication time is two months from late May to late August. It is not possible to assess punctuality as the statistics are new under Statistics Denmark., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistics replace previous versions of the Wood Survey, which, at the initiative of the Danish Energy Agency, has generally been conducted every two years, most recently in 2021., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The plan is for the statistics to be published every other year in the StatBank under the topic , Energy Consumption, with the title , Firewood and Other Biomass for Heating, and in News from Statistics Denmark on Energy Consumption.

In the material flow accounts, the weight of the materials used in the country's economy as a whole is calculated. Additionally, the total amount of resources globally extracted to produce the materials and goods used in the economy is estimated using raw material equivalents. Material flow accounts measured by weight have been compiled since 2014 and contain published data from 1993 onwards. Material flow accounts measured in raw material equivalents are available from 2008 onwards., Statistical presentation, The material flow accounts are an annual report on the weight of Danish resource extraction, as well as the import and export of goods and natural resources distributed by material types, while the raw material equivalents indicate the amount of raw materials globally used to produce the goods included in the material flow accounts. In both accounts, three derived indicators are also calculated, namely direct material input, domestic material consumption, and physical trade balance. Raw material equivalents are also calculated for imported and exported goods and services., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The EW-MFA and the RME are compiled on the basis of internal sources on resource extraction, import and export The RME account is based on modelling. , Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The Material Flow Accounts and raw material equivalents are relevant for anyone seeking information on the relationship between the economy and the use of natural resources. The results are pertinent for analyses of sustainable resource consumption, as domestic material consumption serves as an indicator for two of the UN's sustainability goals. The accounts are requested by ministries, agencies, consulting firms, among others. The accounts are part of the European environmental economic accounts collected by Eurostat., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The overall Material Flow Accounts are based on a range of well-established official statistics. However, the information about the weight of different material types relies in some cases on conversion factors from other units, introducing uncertainty. Additionally, the raw material equivalents are based on a relatively new calculation method involving model calculations and a wide range of assumptions and estimates. Consequently, these figures are associated with greater uncertainty and primarily express orders of magnitude., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published three years and three months after the end of the reference period. The statistics are typically published without delays compared to the planned timing., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The Material Flow Account follows the UN's standard for environmental economic accounts, the System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA). Therefore, the account is comparable to other countries' Material Flow Accounts that adhere to the same guidelines., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, These statistics are in a Danish press release.

Not all data are fully comparable across the two years due to changes in data sources and introduction of new methods., Statistical presentation, The accounts present information about flows of natural resources, goods and residuals (waste and emissions to air, etc.) measured as tonnes per year. The accounts include all type of materials, which are used or supplied. , The flows are recorded by industries and other categories, e.g. extraction from nature, imports, exports, private and government consumption, emissions to the environment, etc. , The accounts are balanced, which means that the quantity of materials used by an industry equals the quantity of materials, that leaves the industry as sold products and residuals. , Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The accounts are based on several sources, for instance, International Trade in Goods, Purchases by Manufacturing Industries, National accounts, and Environmental-Economic Accounts supplemented by data from e.g. the Danish Environmental Protection Agency and websites and organizations and companies., The primary data are processed and supplemented by estimations and allocations, after which they are organised in a so-called physical supply-use table. Finally, this table is adjusted in such a way that supply equals use., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The accounts are of relevance to all, who are interested in information about those physical material flows that take place in relation to the Danish economy. It can be used as a basis for analysis of the circular economy, e.g. for analysis of which industries that use or produce certain types of materials. , Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, In general it can be assumed that there are less uncertainties associated with data obtained directly from primary statistics, while data that results from estimations and allocations will be associated with more uncertainties. , The balancing item, which is represented in the accounts, is to some extent a result of inaccuracies related to other items in the accounts. However, it cannot directly be used as a measure of the uncertainties, since it may also reflect other special relations., No estimations of the magnitude of the uncertainties have been made. , Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The accounts for 2020 have been published 4 years and three months after the end of the reference year (2020).

The accounts also include imports and exports of waste. The Waste Accounts have been published since 2015, based on data from the Danish Environmental Protection Agency. The Waste Accounts is a part of the Environmental-Economic Accounts for Denmark (Green National Accounts)., Statistical presentation, Waste accounts measure the amounts of generated waste distributed to 117 industry groups. Within the industry groups, waste is distributed according to categories and forms of treatment. Imports and exports of waste are distributed according to form of treatment and waste category. The waste accounts are published annually and disseminated through a press release and tables in the StatBank., Municipal waste by municipality, treatment form and waste type is compiled for the first time in 2023., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Waste data are validated in the Danish Environmental Protection Agency before Statistics Denmark receives them. The data processing in Statistics Denmark primarily concerns the detailed and complete distribution of the waste to the 117 industry groups of the Green National Accounts., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Waste accounts are of relevance for administrative bodies, researchers, NGOs, businesses, the educational sector and individuals - all with interests in waste, resources, economic-environmental interactions, the circular economy etc. To ensure international comparability, the waste accounts are prepared according to the UN statistical standard SEEA (System of Environmental Economic Accounting) 2012., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The quality is good concerning the figures for total amounts of waste as well as the amounts for different forms of treatment. However, the distribution by waste fractions become more uncertain at more detailed levels, due to measurement errors (in the reporting)., The detailed distribution according to industry groups is subject to uncertainty, both in the source (ADS) and in the assumptions made in the distribution of waste to detailed industry groups. , Waste by individual municipalities is less precise than totals for the municipality groups due to waste from one municipality being treated at a facility in a different municipality, or waste stations being used by inhabitants of several different municipalities etc., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published 21 months after the end of the reference period.

The accounts comprise the forest land as well as the wood (timber) resource. The forest accounts were first published in 2017, as part of the Green National Accounts for Denmark. In 2021, the accounts have been extended back in time so all data series start in 1990., Statistical presentation, The forest accounts are an annual account of the Danish forest area and the growing stock in the forests. The accounts contain opening and closing stocks as well as balancing items broken down by region. Concerning the growing stock, the accounts are in physical units (cubic meters) as well as monetary units (DKK) and are published with a division into broadleaves and conifers, whereas the forest area is accounted only in physical units (square km). The accounts are published in the StatBank as well as in general publications from the Green National Accounts for Denmark., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The forest accounts are produced separately for forest area and for growing stock. The accounts for the forest area are obtained almost directly from the Danish reporting on land cover under the Kyoto Protocol and from the calculation of the area of undisturbed forest provided by the Agency for Green Transition and Aquatic Environment. For the physical growing stock accounts, several sources are matched and harmonized in order to compile complete and consistent accounts. From the physical growing stock accounts, the monetary accounts (in DKK) are calculated through a valuation model based on estimated prices., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The forest accounts are of relevance for administrative bodies, researchers, NGOs, businesses, the educational sector and individuals - all with interests in forest, natural resources, interactions between environment and economy, natural capital, sustainability etc. In the context of the United Nations and other international organizations, there is a large focus on green national accounts., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The forest accounts are reliable estimates of the physical size of the resources, as well as the change in these over a number of years. Smaller variations from one year to the next may however reflect uncertainties rather than real changes. Especially for the monetary valuation of the growing stock (in DKK) there is significant uncertainty, both concerning the estimated prices as well as inherent in the method used which is based on a number of assumptions. The estimate for the value of the growing stock should therefore be considered a provisional estimate of the order of magnitude., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The forest accounts are normally published 21 months after the reference period ends. Apart from minor adjustments of the target date, the accounts have always been published as planned., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The forest accounts are compiled according to the guidelines for asset accounts for natural resources from the UN statistical standard 'System of Environmental-Economic Accounting'. This ensures a high degree of comparability with the same type of accounts from other countries using this standard. The forest accounts are fully comparable across the published time series within the individual tables., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The forest accounts are available in their most detailed form in the StatBank under the subject , Natural resource accounts, .

      Documentation of statistics: Deaths and life expectancy (Discontinued)

      Contact info, Population and Education , Get documentation of statistics as pdf, Deaths and life expectancy 2016 , Previous versions, Deaths and life expectancy 2015, Deaths and life expectancy 2013, These statistics cover all deaths among people with usual residence in Denmark regardless of whether the death occurs in Denmark or abroad., Information about cause of death is not available for those people, who have died abroad., The statistics of the dead include in the annual calculation of average life expectancy, compiled by Statistics Denmark. The average life expectancy indicates the expected average life expectancy of a newborn, based on mortality for the last two or five years period, e.g. 2016-2017., Statistical presentation, These statistics contains information on number of deaths by sex, age and municipality of residence., These statistics cover all deaths among people with usual residence in Denmark regardless of whether the death occurs in Denmark or abroad., Information about cause of death is not available for those people who have died abroad., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, Daily deliveries from the Central Population Register (CPR) and yearly delivery from Statens Serum Institut (SSI) are basis for the statistics., Data is not checked for errors., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, Municipalities, regions, ministries, the media and private individuals are using the statistics for public and private purposes and as input to the public debate., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, The statistics are based on the Central Population Register (CPR). The quality of the data is very high., For approximately 5 per cent of the deaths the cause of death is missing. These people have often died abroad., The statistics of death include the annual calculation of average life expectancy, compiled by Statistics Denmark.
