What is the difference between “Production” statistics and “Transaction” statistics?

Production statistics refer to the month and year when the electricity/gas was produced, whereas Transaction statistics refer to the month and year when the transaction took place.

Is it possible to get access to the statistics prior 2019?

The statistics and data for period of 2001-2019 are in a different format and last such version from March 2021 can be found below (in that version the figures from 2019 onwards are not up to date):

What you need to know as users of the AIB EECS GO Statistics

This statistical report is updated daily at midnight, processing all received data from individual AIB Members, and provides data:

1. Relating to electricity/gas produced during a specific year: the number of certificates issued, expired and cancelled
2. Relating to the date when transactions actually took place: the number of certificates transferred domestically, exported/imported over AIB Hub, expired and cancelled.

Production and Transaction statistics

Production statistics refer to the month and year when the electricity/gas was produced, whereas Transaction statistics refer to the month and year when the transaction took place.

Thus Production --> issue is the number of GOs issued for electricity/gas produced in a specific month, while Transaction --> issue is the number of GOs issued during a specific month, regardless of when the associated electricity/gas was produced.

Similarly, Production --> cancelled is the number of GOs cancelled which relate to electricity/gas produced in a specific month, while Transaction --> cancelled is the number of GOs cancelled during a specific month, regardless of when the electricity/gas was issued.
