Abstract
New gross energy requirements (GER) have been calculated for 40 materi als for the reference year 1988. The materials comprise metals, plasti cs, paper, ceramics and non-metallic minerals, wood, and fertilizers. GERs are given both for the final (distinguished with respect to energ y carriers) and primary energy consumption. Most of the GERs hold for Western Europe but some only apply to The Netherlands.
