Key headlines
  • Energy production rose by 3.1 per cent compared to the record low level of 2021. Oil production fell to a record low level and remains down by 28 per cent on pre-pandemic (2019) levels. Gas output rose by 16 per cent, nuclear output rose by 4.6 per cent despite reduced operational capacity, but coal reached another record low. Wind, solar and hydro output rose to a record high level due to increased capacity and more favourable weather conditions.
  • Energy consumption in 2022 remained low, down 0.9 per cent on 2021 and down 11 per cent on 2019. Consumption levels in 2022 fell for all sectors except for transport due to warmer weather as well as the impact of higher prices towards the end of the year; industrial sector consumption fell by 3.8 per cent to a record low level.
  • Transport demand increased 15 per cent compared to last year but remains 11 per cent below prepandemic (2019) levels. Aviation fuel demand almost doubled in 2022, but is 21 per cent below 2019 levels, whilst petrol and diesel consumption in 2022 was broadly similar to 2019 averages.
  • Net imports fell by 2.6 per cent. Imports increased by 11 per cent with gas imports at a record high level, and exports increased by 24 per cent with gas and electricity exports at record high levels, with the UK a net exporter of electricity for the first time in over 40 years. The UK has played a key role in supplying gas to Europe as it looks to move away from Russian gas. The UK’s net import dependency stood at 37.3 per cent.
  • The bulk of the UK’s energy imports, over 90 per cent, comprise oil and gas and Norway is the UK’s primary supplier of energy imports. The largest share of oil imports arrives from the US, whilst Norway provides the largest share of gas imports. Russian imports of oil and gas reduced significantly in 2022 and ceased by the end of the year, and accounted for 2.6 per cent of total imports down from 9.6 per cent in 2021.
