The numbers correspond to inhabitants <strong>of</strong> a locality who have a job, wherever this job is<br />
actually located.<br />
- Number <strong>of</strong> employed persons in the Private Sector, Non-Governmental Organization<br />
Sector and Government Companies inside the locality, delivered in national and<br />
governorate Statistical Yearbooks 3 . Since we need this information to estimate the<br />
consumption <strong>of</strong> tertiary and industrial building <strong>of</strong> the locality, we use the following<br />
dataset:<br />

2.1.3. Energy demand in <strong>Palestine</strong> per sector and type <strong>of</strong> <strong>energy</strong><br />
One <strong>of</strong> the key reports used for producing these BEI is the Energy Balance report published by the<br />
PCBS for 2008 4 . One <strong>of</strong> its tables describes <strong>energy</strong> consumption in TJ/year or in sectorial units (kg,<br />
MWH, etc.) per type <strong>of</strong> <strong>energy</strong> (Solar, Electricity, Gasoline, Bitumen, Kerosene, Diesel, Oils, LPG,<br />
Olive cake, Wood and charcoal) and domain <strong>of</strong> activity (Mining, Manufacturing industry, Construction,<br />
Road transport, Households, Internal trade and services, Agriculture).<br />

It will <strong>of</strong>ten be referred to this table in the following chapters, usually by calling a consumption ratio per<br />
capita or employee for a given <strong>energy</strong> and sector from PCBS report on Energy Demand 2008.<br />
For example, to estimate tertiary LPG consumption in <strong>Nablus</strong>, we built such a ratio using the following<br />
formula:<br />
Ratio = LPG Pal 2008 / Pop Pal 2008 = 28.5 kg/capita/year<br />
LPG Pal 2008: Consumption <strong>of</strong> LPG for households in 2008 = 109 million kg/year<br />
