Research into the Enhancement of Historical Energy Statistics
Knowledge of the history of energy policies should constitute the base on which to formulate future energy policies, but the lack of highly accurate energy statistics which are longitudially comparable is hampering further research. Therefore, we will conduct research into the enhancement of historical energy statistics to make them highly accurate and thus able to serve as the basic materials for energy policy research. Also, by applying these historical energy statistics we will also conduct research on the form that energy policies should take.
