Percentage of household members who use clean fuels and technologies as their primary energy source for all three forms of consumption: cooking, heating, and lighting.

The Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS) is a global survey by UNICEF. The MICS Serbia surveys are based on a representative sample of households, women and children and were conducted throughout the territory of Serbia, except for the territory of Kosovo and Metohija. The data are from the MICS 2019 survey (MICS VI). As a special sample, the survey included households in Roma settlements.

 

MICS publications and research archives can be found at https://www.stat.gov.rs/istrazivanja/mics/. The research archives contain final reports, databases, programs for calculating indicators, sample information and more.

 

For more information on monitoring the situation of children and women and the global MICS program, see https://mics.unicef.org

Method of calculation

The number of household members using clean fuels and technologies as their primary source of energy for cooking, heating and lighting is divided by the number of members in all households and multiplied by 100.
