Canonical URL: Peru: Technical Assistance Report-Report on Physical Energy Flow and Air Emissions Accounts (October 6–10, 2025)

A technical assistance mission visited the Instituto Nacional de Estadística e Informática of Peru during October 6–10, 2025.
Primary objectives:
- Review, assess, analyze, and validate the results of the revised Physical Energy Flow Accounts (PEFA) and Air Emissions Accounts (AEA) for 2019.
- Review, assess, analyze, and validate the preliminary PEFA for the period 2020–2022.
- Review, assess, analyze, and validate the preliminary AEA for the years 2020–2021.
- Discuss dissemination strategies for releasing these accounts.
Secondary objectives:
- Develop a time series for the indicators building on the experience of the data compiled for 2019.
- Set up a mechanism for regular production of the accounts.
- Support a broader stakeholder engagement.

The mission reviewed, assessed, and validated:
- PEFA data for the period 2020–2022.
- AEA data for the period 2020–2021.
The COVID-19 Pandemic affected the availability and timeliness of the source data for compiling the accounts.
Key alignment need:
- Adjustments are necessary to align energy and air emission data to national accounts data.

Allocation issues:
- Allocation of natural gas to the relevant industries requires improvement.
- Allocation of diesel to the relevant industries requires improvement.
Residence principle application:
- Applying the residence principle to maritime and inland water transport is required, involving the allocation of energy use and air emissions to the resident units in the country.
Data continuity and production:
- A time series for indicators needs to be developed building on the 2019 compilation experience.
- A mechanism for regular production of the accounts needs to be established.

Improve allocation methodologies:
- Refine allocation of natural gas to the relevant industries.
- Refine allocation of diesel to the relevant industries.
Apply national accounts principles:
- Apply the residence principle to maritime and inland water transport to allocate energy use and air emissions to resident units.
Strengthen production processes:
- Develop a time series for indicators using the 2019 dataset as a foundation.
- Set up a mechanism for regular production of PEFA and AEA.
Enhance dissemination and stakeholder engagement:
- Discuss and implement dissemination strategies for releasing the accounts.
- Continue engaging a broader set of stakeholders to support data compilation and use.
