Energy statistics, April 2021
Primary energy production rose 4.7% on a year-over-year basis in April, up from a 1.4% gain in March. A significant proportion of this increase was attributable to the steep declines in energy production at the onset of the pandemic in the spring of 2020. Crude oil, coal, and natural gas were the main contributors to the year-over-year increase in production, while primary electricity generation was down in April. Secondary energy production (+9.8%) was also up year over year, mostly due to higher production of refined petroleum products. Nevertheless, overall energy production in April remained below pre-pandemic levels.
