In the first three quarters of the year, the consumption of elec-tricity totalled 63.5 TWh, which was 8.2 per cent more than in the previous year. Energy consumption was put up by the cold weather in the early part of the year and by the recovery of industrial production. The increased use of fossil fuels and peat put carbon dioxide emissions from the production and use of energy up by 15.3 per cent from the previous year. Fuel prices have risen almost to the level of 2008. The prices of domestic fuels have risen more moderately.
