These energy related emissions fell by 7% and 10% respectively between 2005 and 2009 and 31% and 35% between 1990 and 2009. The most important reductions were achieved in the energy supply sectors (Energy Industries and Fugitive emissions) as a result of fuel switching from coal and oil to natural gas.

HFCs and PFCs have a wide range of GWPs depending on the gas and emissions are already reported in tonnes CO2-equivalent.

The sector LULUCF (Land use, land use change and forestry) is not included in the national totals under the UNFCCC either. LULUCF in the EU is a net carbon sink, resulting from higher removals by sinks than emissions from sources. A positive change in LULUCF means a reduction in emissions (i.e. a removal of emissions).

In 2008, renewables contributed 10% in final energy consumption (see ENER28). Adding biomass to the traditional fossil fuel mix reduced the amount of CO 2 (electricity-only) emitted per KWh electricity produced by 8% in 2008. Combining fossil fuels, nuclear and renewables led to a reduction of 44% in CO 2 (electricity-only) emissions per KWh electricity produced in 2008. Between 1992 and 2007 g CO 2 emission per kWh of electricity and heat output decreased by 17% within the EU27 compared to the USA and China, where g CO 2 emissions per kWh decreased by 6% and 5% respectively.  However, looking at the global trend CO 2 emissions per kWh have increased by 8%.

Total net imports (imports minus exports) of natural gas, solid fuels and oil (including petroleum products) as a share of primary energy consumption rose from 47.8 % in 2000 to 56.2% in 2008. The increased use of gas, primarily replacing domestic coal, has had a positive environmental benefit within the EU (for example via reduced emissions of greenhouse gas and air pollutant emissions), but has also increased some risks associated with security of energy supply.     No publisher pastocin energy consumption ENER CO2 ENER12 uranium energy natural gas gas ENER2011 emissions oil solid fuels ENER012 ENER2009 fuel assessment11 fossil fuels Assessment09 2011-09-22T08:55:12+02:00 Indicator Assessment http://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/indicators/energy-efficiency-and-energy-consumption/assessment-1?utm_source=EEASubscriptions&utm_medium=RSSFeeds&utm_campaign=Generic   In the EU-27 countries, energy efficiency in the transport sector increased by 15% between 1990 and 2008- at an annual average rate of 0.9% - due to increased efficiency particularly for passenger cars and airplanes. Over the same period, per capita energy consumption in transport in EU-27 countries increased by 26% - at an annual average rate of 1.3% - slower than GDP (2.1% annually). In 2008, the average per capita energy consumption in transport in EU-27 was 0.75 toe. In other EEA countries, the increase of per capita energy consumption in transport was either below the EU-27 average (e.g. Switzerland with 7% and Norway with 11%) or significantly above (e.g. Turkey with 36% and Iceland with 42%). Growth in passengers and freight traffic, together with an observed modal shift from public transport to road transport, contributed to increase the energy consumption in transport, offsetting the energy efficiency gains.

These energy related emissions fell by 0.2% and 1% respectively between 2007 and 2008. Since 1990, these emissions declined by 25% and 31% respectively in the EU and EEA member countries. The most important reductions were achieved in the energy supply sectors (Energy Industries and Fugitive emissions) as a result of fuel switching from coal and oil to natural gas. It is expected that in the future concentrations of PM 10 in most of the urban areas in the EEA region remain well above the short-term limit air quality values.

They fell by 4%, 5% and 17% respectively between 2007 and 2008 in EEA32 countries (Since 1990, these energy related emissions declined by 35% and 75% for NO x and SO 2 respectively but increased by 103% for NH 3 in the EU-27 and declined by 30% (NO x ) and 71% (SO 2 ) and increased by 106% (NH 3 ) in EEA-32 member countries. However as noted earlier the percentage of energy related NH 3 emissions are insignificant compare dot the non-energy related NH 3 emissions. Most of the total reduction in pollutants contributing to acid deposition since 1990 is accounted for by lower SO 2 emissions from the energy-producing sector and lower NO x emissions from the transport sector. Despite significant progress and the EU-27 on not track to meet overall targets [1] , further reductions are needed to improve remaining local and transboundary air pollution issues, and for ensuring that individual countries meet emissions ceiling targets under the National Emissions Ceilings Directive (NECD) and the UNECE Gothenburg Protocol.

Energy related emissions of these pollutants in the EEA-32 fell by 4%, 3%, 5% and 1% respectively between 2007 and 2008, and since 1990, these emissions have declined by 53%, 59%, 30% and 44% in EEA member countries. The largest reductions in emissions occurred in the road transport sector, largely as a result of the continued introduction of catalytic converters in new vehicles during this period. Energy production and use still remains a significant source of emissions for these precursor pollutants. Reducing energy-related emissions of ozone precursors therefore is a key priority for reducing local and transboundary air pollution and in ensuring that the EU and individual countries meet emission ceiling targets under the National Emissions Ceilings Directive (NECD) and the UNECE Gothenburg Protocol, meet their limit values under Directive 2008/50/EC on ambient air quality and cleaner air for Europe and the Air Quality Framework Directive and its daughter directives.
