I don;t know exactlt and there are no real stats. However, i think people are trying to figure how much (energy) each person omits.Under the Energy Accounting system (which is the idea behind it), a car, for example, would be valued by the energy it takes to create the product (energy to run and supply the factory, plus the energy to transport all materials and the final product). In this way, ecological costs are accounted for, since energy is the main non-renewable resource consumed by humans. Any manufacturing system which produces a car using less energy, would be cheaper in price and cost less energy. In this way, quality and efficiency are maximized through careful review of their toll on the total reserve of energy available to the population.Another example of why technocrats support the energy accounting system is that they say it eliminates social problems, which are caused by the current Price system. Since the productive capacity of the technate is equally available, technocrats state that things such as theft, gender inequality, and even racial hierarchies would be greatly discouraged.Since technology is continuously evolving, there is much debate on what method would be used to record and measure expenditure of energy among the populace. In any case, the Technate would have to use technology to eliminate security risks and make the process seamless.
