Special Eurobarometer 258: Energy Issues

Description

This report illustrates the current results and then highlights changes during the five month period between the two surveys. This latest survey was conducted between 27 March and 1 May 2006 in the 25 Member States, as well as in the candidate and acceding countries using a sample of 29 220 respondents. Further details of the survey methodology can be found in the technical note annexed to this report. The energy challenges are apparent. Increasing demand, and as its corollary, growing consumption, pose various challenges: ensuring sufficient and secure energy supplies, combating increasing dependency on energy imports, making adequate investments in new technologies and tackling environmental effects, especially the greenhouse effect. It is possible to successfully meet these challenges: energy related problems are relatively recent, many technical options already exist or are under development and the stakeholders are willing to collaborate on solutions. On the other hand, over and above the costs involved in meeting up these challenges, it is necessary to change consumer habits and recognise the urgency of these problems. In general, there are two main ways of tackling these challenges: reducing energy demand by changing consumption habits or using energy in a “greener”, more diverse and more efficient manner. #####The results by volumes are distributed as follows: * Volume A: Countries * Volume AA: Groups of countries * Volume A' (AP): Trends * Volume AA' (AAP): Trends of groups of countries * Volume B: EU/socio-demographics * Volume B' (BP) : Trends of EU/ socio-demographics * Volume C: Country/socio-demographics ---- Researchers may also contact GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences: [https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer](https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer)
