Greenhouse gas emissions calculated according to IPCC regulations

This new table contains annual figures on greenhouse gas emissions to air in the Netherlands. These include emissions of total greenhouse gases expressed in CO2 equivalent and emissions of the individual gases: carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), methane (CH4) and F-gases. The emissions are broken down by climate sectors, as used in the Dutch Climate Agreement, and by underlying sectors. Greenhouse gas emissions to air have been calculated according to the requirements of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). IPCC was established by the United Nations and aims to identify and share the available knowledge on climate, climate change and its impacts. The IPCC provides (scientific) guidance for the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol. For an overall overview, air emissions from bunker fuels sold in the Netherlands for international aviation and international shipping have also been included. These emissions are not covered by the IPCC Directive. They do not count towards the greenhouse gas emissions that the Netherlands provides to the IPCC and are therefore not included in the total figure. Data available from: 1990. Status of the figures: The figures from 1990 to 2022 are final. In order to achieve a coherent and consistent time series, the complete time series is (re)calculated each year, in the first quarter, so that the latest insights, in particular as regards emission factors, can be taken into account in the calculations. Changes as of 8 February 2024: The 2022 provisional figures have been replaced by final figures. When will there be new figures? Preliminary figures for 2023 will be published in September 2024.
