Description of work This work package, essential to the right execution of the project, relates to determining the situation of the energy statistics in the EU residential sector, to the identification of good practices, both in the EU and in countries and organisations external to the EU, and to the standardisation of methods, and the terminology to be suggested to the EU MMSS with a view to being able to meeting the conclusions and requirements recommended by Task-force 2008. Sub-Tasks: Task 2.1. Global inventory and geographic coverage Task 2.2. Compendium inventory Task 2.3. Standardized methodology Task 2.4. Operational list of definitions Task 2.5.

7. 3 strategic objetives: 1.Conceptual framework which provide a common basis to consolidate the statistic information on energy statistics in the household sector 2.Concepts and definitions, statistical units, variables, and classifications. 3.Coherent use of data acquisition and processing methods in order to produce statistical data 7 Task 2.3. Standardized Methodology M ESH PROJECT : P RODUCTION OF A M ANUAL FOR S TATISTICS ON E NERGY C ONSUMPTION IN H OUSEHOLDS What we understand by “Standardized Methodology”? “Use of a common normalized system of methodological components: harmonised concepts and definitions; statistic units; classifications; nomenclatures and codes; standardized models of questions and standard variables …..which make it possible the comparison, integration and analyses of data and results” Initial inventory of concepts/methods.. obtained from glossaries, NSIs, etc. of the countries considered in the geographic coverage Review, adjustment and depuration Criteria to standardize concepts/methods Selection of a glossary of concepts/methods (1)Relevant concepts/methods for the design and development of the statistical operations; (2)Concepts/methods of interest to consider (1)Accordance with international official guidelines/recommendations or theory; (2)Other concepts/methods Standardized methodology

8. Necessary input for the methodology standardization Consideration of a preliminary list of definitions related to energy consumption in households, developed by the ESWG of Eurostat in 2009 Set of definitions structured according to the TF 2008 requirements Distribution of the list as a reference for comments among MESH partners 8 Task 2.4.
