Emissions of fluorinated gases (F-gases)

The figures shows the emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6). Emissions are provided in Mt CO2 equivalent using the Global Warming Potential values of the 2nd IPCC Assessment report (SAR).

Additional information

Global-warming potential (GWP) is a relative measure of how much heat a greenhouse gas traps in the atmosphere.

In this figure the GWP values used are the ones provided by the 2^nd IPCC Assessment report (SAR).
