Consumption Variation
Consumption corresponds to all the natural gas consumed monthly in mainland Portugal. It is broken down into two main market segments, as follows.
Electricity Market, which corresponds to natural gas consumed by combined-cycle power plants for electricity generation; and Conventional Market, which corresponds to natural gas for household and industrial consumption, excluding electricity generation.
Monthly variations are calculated vis-à-vis the same month of the previous year. Annual values concern the accumulated values up to the corresponding month and those for 12 months concern the twelve months ending in the corresponding month in comparison with the same period from the previous year.
