- The value of the industry is given by multiplying volume by the annual average non-household power price, or equivalent, excluding taxes and levies.
- The power generation industry is segmented by volume into electricity produced from nuclear, conventional (thermal generation from fossil fuels), and renewable (hydropower, wind, solar, biomass, and similar) sources. It excludes energy sourced from hydroelectric pumped storage.
