Q1. Definition of Electricity consumption: This entry consists of total electricity generated annually plus imports and
minus exports, expressed in kilowatt-hours. The discrepancy between the amount of electricity generated and/or
imported and the amount consumed and/or exported is accounted for as loss in transmission and distribution.
Electric energy consumption is the form of energy consumption that uses electric energy. Electric energy consumption
is the actual energy demand made on existing electricity supply. Electricity was the main energy form
consumed in the end-use sectors. In 2011, 30.5 Mtoe of electricity was consumed, followed by
25.9 Mtoe of oil products, with 76% of them consumed by the transportation sector. Natural
gas and coal were typically consumed in the industrial sector as a fuel to provide heat steam
and fluid, which accounted for 4.3 Mtoe and 1.8 Mtoe of consumption, respectively. The enduse sector energy consumption could also be expressed in primary energy form, as shown in
Figures 1.

Q2. Malaysia has a good mix of energy resources; oil, natural gas, coal and renewable energies such as hydro power
electricity, biomass, and solar. We are interested in detailing some information towards these types of energy and the
utilization in Malaysia within 5 years time back. Instead of electricity generation, these most popular types of energy
those being used in Malaysia widely are also important in various fields such as transportations, industries, residential
and commercials, and also being exported to some countries. Sources of electricity refer to the inputs used to generate
electricity.
Oil refers to crude oil and petroleum products. Gas refers to natural gas but excludes natural gas liquids. Coal refers to
all coal and brown coal, both primary (including hard coal and lignite-brown coal) and derived fuels (including patent
fuel, coke oven coke, gas coke, coke oven gas, and blast furnace gas).
