Since 1970 VGB has collected data based on standardized definitions, calculation methods, and recording procedures. With the liberalization of the energy markets the technical and economic assessment of power plants has gained more and more in importance. Intensifying the co-operation between Eurelectric and VGB it was decided to merge both associations’ data collection for the availability and unavailability of power plants. Since 2008 the data of Eurelectric´s TherPerf-Report and VGB´s KISSY-Report has been presented in one common report.

The vgbe Power Plant Statistics Performance Indicators (KISSY) is the tool to deal efficiently with these questions.

This report provides information about the availability and utilization for the period 2012 - 2021. The current report provides performance indicators for 589 power plant units plus 162 machine sets of storage and pump storage hydro power plants.
