The Ministry of Fuel and Power Statistical Digest was previously published as a Command Paper, the first being that for the years 1938 to 1943, published in July 1944 (Cmd. 6538). A publication tracing the history of energy production and use over the past 60 years was produced in 2009 to mark the 60th anniversary of DUKES. The publication is available at: www.decc.gov.uk/en/content/cms/statistics/publications/dukes/dukes.aspx II The current issue updates the figures given in the Department of Energy and Climate Change’s (DECC) Digest of United Kingdom Energy Statistics 2011, published in July 2011. III This printed and bound issue consists of seven chapters and four annexes. The first chapter deals with overall energy. The other chapters cover the specific fuels, renewable sources of energy and combined heat and power. The annexes cover conversion factors and calorific values, a glossary of terms, further sources of information and major events in the energy industries. IV This Digest is also available on the internet. Some additional information appears on the internet only. The tables on the internet are provided in Microsoft Excel format. Most internet versions of the tables include data for earlier years, which are not provided in the printed copy publication. For example commodity and energy balances (see VII and VIII, below) for 1998 to 2008 are included on the internet, and tables that show five years in this printed version show fourteen years in their internet form because page sizes are not a limiting factor. In addition, the following appear on the internet version only: Long term trends text and tables Major events from 1990 to 2012 - Annex D (only Major events for 2010 to 2012 appear in the printed and bound version) Energy and the environment – Annex E UK oil and gas resources - Annex F Foreign trade – Annex G Flow charts – Annex H Energy balance: net calorific values – Annex I Heat reconciliation – Annex J V Annual information on prices is included in the publication Quarterly Energy Prices.
