Each month, one of our Subject Librarians chooses an electronic resource which they feel will be of interest to you.

August’s Resource of the Month has been selected by John Southall, Bodleian Data Librarian and Subject Consultant for Economics and Sociology.

John’s choice is The International Energy Agency Statistics Package – or more simply the ISP – which offers access to various IEA data products, including those related to coal, electricity, natural gas, oil, and renewables. The ISP is designed for businesses and universities, offering a wide range of data on energy supply, consumption, trade with one start and expiry date.
Overview

It also offers a number of energy-related indicators, including energy prices, public RD&D and measures of energy efficiency.
