Mission purpose and scope

• A technical assistance mission visited the Instituto Nacional de Estadística e Informática (INEI) of Peru during February 3–7, 2025.
• Objective: review, assess, analyze, and validate the results of the Physical Energy Flow Accounts (PEFA) and Air Emissions Accounts (AEA) for 2019; discuss dissemination strategies; and provide guidelines for preparing metadata and data releases.
• The mission was conducted with support from the Switzerland State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO) under a two-year “Environmental and Climate Change Statistics Capacity Development Program”.

Data status and publication timeline

• The Covid-19 Pandemic affected the availability and timeliness of the source data for compiling the accounts.
• The accounts for 2019 are being developed as a learning exercise and will be published as experimental accounts in May 2025.
• The time series up to 2023 will be compiled as soon as the new data is available.
• Update and compilation tasks:
  • Update the AEA for 2019 and compile the accounts for 2020 and 2021 when the inventory data are available in March 2025.
  • Compile the PEFA 2020–2022, as energy balances for those years are already available.

Technical work completed during the mission

• The mission provided hands-on assistance to make residence adjustments on land, water and air transport operated, both on PEFA and AEA.
• Residence adjustments used:
  • national accounts data on transport, and
  • air transport data from the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD).
• Most of the adjustments were incorporated to the accounts on site.

Key findings and needs

• The mission reaffirmed the need to enhance communication, collaboration and coordination among data producing agencies and implement data sharing.
• To accomplish regular production and broader dissemination of the accounts, additional human resources need to be allocated to the compilation of the PEFA and the AEA.
• The objective is that by May 2025, the country would release the first set of experimental indicators for broader stakeholder engagement and for setting up a mechanism for regular production of the accounts.

Priority recommendations to compile PEFA and AEA

• Use the data from the supply and use table of the national accounts and the balance of payments to finalize the adjustments of transport services.
• Publish the results and metadata of the PEFA and the AEA for 2019.
• Update the AEA for 2019 and compile the accounts for 2020 and 2021 when the inventory data are available in March 2025.
• Compile the PEFA 2020–2022, as energy balances for those years are already available.
