More information

Based on data reported by Member States under the Monitoring Mechanism Regulation (Regulation (EU) No 525/2013):
• 1990-2017 historic trends from national greenhouse gas inventories submitted in 2019;
• 2018 approximated inventories submitted in 2019;
• projections submitted by Member States in 2019 + gap-filling.

Trends for ETS emissions are based on an allocation of 1990-2017 GHG inventory data to either the ETS or non-ETS sectors, at source category level.

Solid lines represent historical GHG emissions (available for the period 1990-2017). Dashed lines represent projections for the scenario with existing measures (WEM). Dotted lines represent projections for the scenario with additional measures (WAM). The Effort Sharing sector emissions presented are estimated based on the attribution of GHG emissions, reported by source categories in national GHG inventories and national MMR projections, to EU ETS sectors and/or Effort Sharing sectors. The sector here summarised as ‘industry and other’ aggregates emissions of energy supply, manufacturing, industrial processes and product use (GHG inventory source categories 1.A.1, 1.A.2, 1.B, 1.C and 2), which are not covered under the EU ETS.

Based on data

National emissions reported to the UNFCCC and to the EU Greenhouse Gas Monitoring Mechanism Data on greenhouse gas emissions and removals, sent by countries to UNFCCC and the EU Greenhouse Gas Monitoring Mechanism (EU Member States). This data set reflects the GHG inventory data for 2020 as reported under the United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change.

Briefings

National action across all sectors needed to reach greenhouse gas Effort Sharing targets EU legislation on Effort Sharing covers emissions from a wide range of sectors, such as road transport, heating and cooling in residential and commercial buildings, agriculture and small industries. These sectors have significantly different emission drivers and reduction potentials. Reducing these emissions to meet national Effort Sharing targets requires a diversified and well-adapted policy mix at the national level. Having reported a large number of planned policies and measures under the Monitoring Mechanism Regulation in March 2019, EU Member States and the United Kingdom must now fully implement them to allow the EU to deliver on its decarbonisation objectives. This briefing provides an updated overview of sectoral trends, projections of greenhouse gas emissions, and planned policies and measures in the EU Effort Sharing sectors.
