Energy consumption by the Construction target sector in the Netherlands, 1990-1999*
Little is known about energy consumption in the construction industry. It is therefore difficult to arrive at conclusions about developments.

Technical note
It is difficult to measure energy consumption on a building site , which means that the data presented may not be entirely accurate. It is therefore not possible to comment reliably on developments in energy use in this sector.
