Additional information

Data compiled and held by ETC/ACC are annual emissions of CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6 from individual countries. Sectoral data (IPCC classification) is provided for the following main source categories: Energy, Industrial Processes, Solvent and Other Product Use, Agriculture, Land-Use Change and Forestry, Waste, Other, CO2 emissions from Biomass, International bunkers and Multilateral Operations.

Changes in EU-12 greenhouse gas emissions by sector, 1990-2006 The categories Total emissions, Energy and Transport do not include emissions and removals from LULUCF (carbon sink activities) and emissions from international bunkers (international aviation and maritime transport).

Changes in EU-15 greenhouse gas emissions by sector Some Member States did not report projections for all sectors or scenarios

Changes in greenhouse gas emission trends in Europe between 1990 and 2006

Annual emissions and five-year rolling average of EU-15 greenhouse gas emissions (1990-2006) The average greenhouse gas emission over five years is a rolling average of greenhouse gas emissions of the last five years

Greenhouse gas emission trends for EU-27, EU-15 and EU-12, 1990-2006 Figure shows the GHG emission trends for EU-27, EU-15 and EU-12

Gaps between 2010 projections and Kyoto targets Countries are sorted by regional grouping (EU-15, EU-12, other EEA countries and Croatia) and ranked by relative gap between 2010 projections (including additional measures, carbon sinks and Kyoto mechanisms) and Kyoto target

Changes in greenhouse gas emissions in Europe between 2005 and 2006

Changes in EU-27 greenhouse gas emissions by sector, 1990-2006 The categories Total emissions, Energy and Transport do not include emissions and removals from LULUCF (carbon sink activities) and emissions from international bunkers (international aviation and maritime transport).

Past and projected EU-15 greenhouse gas emissions compared with Kyoto target for 2008-2012 2010 projections from Denmark and Luxembourg correspond to average projections for the whole 20082012 period

Past and projected greenhouse gas emissions aggregated for the 12 new Member States For Estonia, Hungary and Latvia, the projections used in last year&amp;#39;s report are used here as no new data were available

Past and projected EU-12 greenhouse gas emissions

Gaps between 2006 emissions and Kyoto targets, relative to base-year emissions Countries are sorted by regional grouping (EU-15, EU-12, other EEA countries and Croatia) and ranked by gap between their 2006 emissions and their Kyoto target (without use of Kyoto mechanisms).
