Production

Each year ECOBA prepares a statistic on production and utilisation of CCPs in the countries of their members. Since 1993 the statistics cover the data of the EU 15 countries. But CCPs are produced in more European countries and to avoid confusion ECOBA extended the scope of the statistics to demonstrate the European situation. As not all producers from Europe are members of ECOBA and as especially utilisation figures are not available in all member states the total production can be described as given below. The production data are verified by statistical figures on coal consumption. For the utilisation however, due to missing data from all producers and users, only the fields of application have been identified.

The ECOBA statistics on production and utilisation of CCPs in EU 15 countries in 2016 is given below. In 2016, the amount of CCPs produced in European (EU-15)power plants totals 40 million tonnes. The total production is given in the upper lines of the overview. The utilisation of the single CCPs is given in the lower table including the calculation of utilisation rates in the construction industry as well as for additional use for reclamation.
