ANNEX C MONTHLY ENERGY STATISTICS This Annex describes the scope, units, reported period, frequency, deadline and transmission modalities for the monthly collection of energy statistics. Annex A applies for explanations of terms for which a specific explanation is not supplied in this Annex. 1. SOLID FUELS 1.1. Applicable energy products Unless otherwise specified this data collection applies to all of the following energy products: Energy product Definition 1. Hard coal Black, combustible, solid, organic, fossil sediment with a gross calorific value greater than 24 MJ/kg in ash-free condition with the moisture content obtained at a temperature of 30 o C and a relative air humidity of 96 %. 2. Lignite Combustible, brown to black, organic fossil sediment with a gross calorific value lower than 24 MJ/kg in ash-free condition with the moisture content obtained at a temperature of 30 o C and a relative air humidity of 96 %. 2.1. Of which: black lignite Lignite with a moisture content of 20 to 25 % and an ash content of 9 to 13 %. Black lignite was formed in the secondary era. Within the Union, it is now produced only by France from deep mining in Provence. 2.2. Of which: brown coal Lignite with a moisture content of 40 to 70 % and an ash content normally between 2 and 6 %; the latter, however, may be as high as 12 % depending on the deposit. Brown coal was mainly formed in the tertiary era. This fuel is mostly mined in opencast workings. 3. Peat Soft, loose to compressed, natural, combustible sediment of vegetable origin with a high moisture content (up to 90 %), light to dark brown in colour. This definition is without prejudice to the definition of renewable energy sources in Directive 2001/77/EC and to the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories. 4. Patent fuel Patent fuels of hard coal are artefacts of specified shape produced by hot milling under pressure, with the addition of binding material (pitch). 5. Lignite briquettes Artefacts of even shape produced after crushing and drying of lignite, moulded under high pressure without the addition of binders. This includes dried lignite and lignite breeze. 6. Coke derived from hard coal Artificial solid fuel derived from hard coal and obtained by dry distillation of the coal in the total or partial absence of air. Includes: — hard coke: obtained by carbonisation at high temperatures, — semi-coke: obtained by carbonisation at low temperatures, — gasworks coke: produced in gasworks. 7.
