Concepts
  • ENTERPRISE:  Legal entity (natural or legal person) that is an organisational unit producing goods or services, which benefits from a certain degree of autonomy in decision-making, especially for the allocation of its current resources. An enterprise carries out one or more activities at one or more locations.
  • REFERENCE PERIOD:  Period to which the information refers and which may be a specific day or a time interval (month, fiscal year, calendar year, among others).
Definition Fuel - Substance that, through a combustion process, releases energy used for thermal, mechanical, or electricity generation purposes, which may originate from fossil, synthetic, or biomass derivatives (solid, liquid, or gaseous). Year-on-year growth rate - Rate that compares the level of the index/variable between the reference period of the current year and the same reference period of the previous year. This rate of change, given a stable seasonal pattern, is not affected by fluctuations of this nature, although it may be influenced by localised effects in one or both of the quarters compared.
