Story details

Statistics Norway reported on 7 October that turnover across oil and gas extraction, mining, manufacturing and electricity supply rose 3.3% in August 2026 from July on a seasonally adjusted basis. The three-month increase was 0.9%, while the calendar-adjusted year-on-year change reached 25.2%.

Unadjusted turnover for the combined scope was NOK 284.779 billion. SSB cautions that the electricity-supply total includes generation, distribution, trading and district heating, and does not represent the value of electricity sales to customers. The series measures turnover value, not production volume.
