Matul l-2022, il-provvista tal-elettriku fʼMalta kienet magħmula mill-produzzjoni netta tal-impjanti tal-enerġija (67.5 fil-mija), mill-provvista tal-importazzjoni netta (22.2 fil-mija) u minn sorsi rinnovabbli (10.3 fil-mija) (Tabella nru 1 u Ċart nru 1).

Fl-2022, il-produzzjoni grossa magħmula mill-elettriku li kien ġej mill-impjanti tal-enerġija u minn sorsi rinnovabbli ammontat għal 2,293.5 GWh. Ix-xahar taʼ Lulju wera l-ogħla ammont taʼ produzzjoni grossa bʼ249.0 GWh (Tabella nru 2).

Il-produzzjoni tal-elettriku li kien ġej mill-impjanti tal-enerġija rreġistrat żieda taʼ 2.3 fil-mija meta mqabbla mas-sena ta qabel u li laħqet l-1,996.5 GWh (Tabella nru 3). It-tiġjib tal-enerġija minn sorsi rinnovabbli rreġistra żieda taʼ 12.9 fil-mija sabiex laħaq 297.0 GWh fl-2022. Il-biċċa l-kbira tal-enerġija rinnovabbli (97.5 fil-mija) kienet miġjuba minn pannelli fotovoltajċi (Tabella nru 4).

Matul l-2022, kienu importati bl-interconnector total taʼ 646.1 GWh, li huma żieda taʼ 18.1 fil-mija meta mqabblin mas-sena taʼ qabel (Tabella nru 5).

Ix-xahar taʼ Lulju (318.8 GWh) kellu l-akbar provvista taʼ elettriku matul l-2022 bʼsehem taʼ 11.1 fil-mija. Dan kien segwit mix-xahar taʼ Awwissu (317.2 GWh) li kellu sehem taʼ 11.0 fil-mija mill-provvista kollha tas-sena (Tabella nru 6).

Fl-2022, ix-xhur taʼ Lulju u Awwissu kellhom l-akbar domanda għall-elettriku, u rreġistraw 581 MW u 575 MW, rispettivament. Id-domanda medja annwali rreġistrata fl-2022 kienet taʼ 473 MW – li hija żieda taʼ 8.0 fil-mija meta mqabbla mas-sena ta qabel (Tabella nru 7).

Fl-2022, l-emissjonijiet GHG mill-kombustjoni tal-fjuwil fl-impjanti tal-enerġija żdiedu bi 3.1 fil-mija fuq is-sitwazzjoni fl-2021 (Tabella nru 8 u Ċart nru 2).

Methodological Notes

1. Definitions:

Megawatt (MW): is a unit for measuring power that is equivalent to one million watts.

Megawatt-hour (MWh): is equal to 1,000 kilowatts or one million (1,000,000) watts of electricity produced by a power plant that runs continuously for one hour.

● Gigawatt-hour (GWh): is equal to 1,000 megawatts or one billion (1,000,000,000) watts of electricity produced by a power plant that runs continuously for one hour.

Maximum electricity demand: the highest amount of electricity consumed at any one point in time across the entire network system.

● Renewable energy: energy that is obtained from resources which are continually replenished on a human timescale. Such resources include sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves and geothermal heat.

● Photovoltaic (PV) system: A complete set of components for converting solar radiation into electricity by the photovoltaic process, including the array/s of photovoltaic modules that collect and absorb sunlight for conversion into electricity, inverter/s and associated balance of system components.

● CO2 equivalent: is a metric measure used to compare the emissions from various greenhouse gases on the basis of their global-warming potential (GWP), by converting amounts of other gases to the equivalent amount of carbon dioxide with the same global-warming potential.

● Own use by power plants: is the difference between Gross and Net production, i.e. it is the electricity and heat used by power station auxiliaries directly related to generation and including that used in the fuel handling plant, cooling water plant, power station services, heating, lighting, workshops and administrative buildings directly associated with the power station during both on-load and off-load periods.

● Gross electricity production: is the sum of the electrical energy production by all the generating sets concerned (including pumped storage) measured at the output terminals of the main generators.

● Net electricity production: is equal to the gross electricity production less the electrical energy absorbed by the generating auxiliaries and the losses in the main generator transformers.

● Imports and Exports: Amounts of electricity and heat are considered as imported or exported when they have crossed the political boundaries of the country, whether customs clearance has taken place or not. If electricity is “wheeled” or transited through a country, the amount should be reported as both an import and an export.

Electricity supply: For electricity, this is the electrical energy supplied from the plant. In the case of a national network, this is equal to the sum of the net electrical energy production supplied by all power stations within the country, reduced by the amount used simultaneously for pumping as well as the amount used for heat sold using heat pumps and electric boilers. It is then reduced or increased by exports to or imports from abroad.
