The statistics are used to compile weightings in the Consumer Price Index and for calculation of the private consumption in the National Accounts. The statistics were first compiled in 1897 and annually since 1994., Statistical presentation, The Household budget survey is an annual statement of the detailed private consumption at household level for private households in Denmark. The survey covers private households in Denmark. The household budget survey provides a detailed breakdown of consumption. In the most detailed breakdown, consumption is divided into approx. 1,200 different consumption types., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The Household Budget Survey is a sample survey in which approximately 2,600 households are selected from Denmark’s total of around 2.9 million private households. From 2024, data will be collected annually from about 1,300 households, and the sample for a given year’s survey is based on data collected over a two‑year period., The survey includes information from three data sources: accounts, interviews, and administrative registers., All consumption expenditures, incomes, etc. are adjusted to correspond as closely as possible to the price and volume level of the final year., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, In addition to the general public the Household Budget Survey has a wide application.

Public authorities' planning and feasibility studies, etc. Internationally, where especially EUROSTAT is very active in order to establish comparable figures between countries. Research in a number of areas, as well as for marketing purposes., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, Only 8 percent of the contacted households chose to participate in the Household Budget Survey. This creates uncertainty, particularly for detailed consumption groups. For total consumption, this results in a margin of uncertainty of ±1.4 percent, while for items such as bread it is 1.8 percent, and as high as 18.6 percent for a rarely purchased item such as offal. There is underreporting in several areas, such as alcohol, tobacco, prostitution, and undeclared work. Uncertainty is greater when data are based on diary entries rather than interviews, and it increases further when looking at smaller subgroups of households., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The statistics are published approximately12 months after the end of the reference year. The statistics are usually published according to the time announced. , Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The Household Budget Survey is carried out in accordance with the guidelines of Eurostat, the Statistical Office of the European Union. Comparable figures are published by Eurostat. From 1994 onwards, the survey methodology was revised so that the survey is now conducted annually using the same method and on a comparable basis., Data for the years 2014 to 2022 were based on a two‑year sample and the ECOICOP nomenclature. To ensure comparability over time, data from 1994 to 2013 were recalculated according to this nomenclature in both current and constant prices., From 2024, COICOP2018 has been implemented in the Household Budget Survey as a result of the survey becoming regulation‑based. Data from 2015–2022 have been recalculated in both current and constant prices according to COICOP2018 to ensure continuity., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The Danish Household Budget Survey is published in a Danish press release, at the same time as the tables are updated in the StatBank.

The results of the study are used, among other things, for the Danish Energy Agency's annual energy statistics and the Ministry of the Environment's assessment of emissions from wood stoves in Denmark. The study is based on a survey sent to a sample of households in Denmark. The study is conducted every two years, and reports dating back to 2009 can be found on the Danish Energy Agency's website. Statistics Denmark carried out the current study in collaboration with the Danish Energy Agency., Statistical presentation, The statistics calculate the number of homes and holiday homes that are entirely or partially heated by wood stoves, etc., and the proportion these homes represent of the total housing stock. Additionally, the total consumption of firewood, etc., corresponding to the year 2023 is calculated. The results are presented as totals and broken down by geography, primary heat sources, wood stove types, and housing types., Read more about statistical presentation, Statistical processing, The firewood survey is a sample-based survey. The interviews were collected via a web-based questionnaire, with approximately 20,000 responses most recently collected. The selected respondents are scaled to a national level using background information from population and housing statistics registers. The results are adjusted for non-responses, and data is error-checked at both micro and macro levels. During data processing, a limited number of responses are corrected due to inconsistencies or obviously incorrect answers. Household use of firewood, wood briquettes, and wood pellets is converted from physical quantities to total energy consumption based on standard values for energy content., Read more about statistical processing, Relevance, The survey was developed with support from a working group with representatives from the Danish Energy Agency and the Danish Environmental Protection Agency, who use the results for calculating energy consumption and particle emissions from wood-burning stoves. Additionally, the statistics are of interest to others concerned with energy and the environment. As the survey is new under Statistics Denmark, there is no experience yet with user satisfaction., Read more about relevance, Accuracy and reliability, There will always be errors associated with sample-based and questionnaire-based statistics. The survey framework was reviewed and quality assured before distribution, but it is rare to avoid identifying sources of error afterward. The results of the statistics are compared with previous, relevant studies on wood consumption, etc., and deviations are to be expected due to normal sampling uncertainty, minor differences in data processing, and real changes in the prevalence and consumption patterns regarding heating in private homes and holiday homes., Read more about accuracy and reliability, Timeliness and punctuality, The survey is conducted every two years, and the publication time is two months from late May to late August. It is not possible to assess punctuality as the statistics are new under Statistics Denmark., Read more about timeliness and punctuality, Comparability, The statistics replace previous versions of the Wood Survey, which, at the initiative of the Danish Energy Agency, has generally been conducted every two years, most recently in 2021., Read more about comparability, Accessibility and clarity, The plan is for the statistics to be published every other year in the StatBank under the topic , Energy Consumption, with the title , Firewood and Other Biomass for Heating, and in News from Statistics Denmark on Energy Consumption.
