International Energy Agency Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Emissions from Fuel Combustion, 1960-2018

The International Energy Agency (IEA) datasets published by the Energy Statistics Division (ESD) contain annual and quarterly time series data from 1960 onwards on energy production, trade, stocks, transformation, consumption, prices and taxes as well as on greenhouse gas emissions for  OECD Member countries and non-OECD countries.<br> <br> In OECD Member countries the data is collected by official bodies (most often the national statistics office in each country) from firms, government agencies and industry organisations and are then reported to the IEA using questionnaires to ensure international comparability. In non-OECD countries the data are collected directly from government and industry contacts and from national publications.<br> <br> The <i>International Energy Agency (IEA) Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Emissions from Fuel Combustion</i> database provides a comparative analysis of CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion, a major source of anthropogenic emissions. The data is designed to assist in understanding the evolution of these emissions on a country, regional and worldwide basis. Emissions were calculated using IEA energy databases and the default methods and emission factors given in the 2006 GLs for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories. <br> <br> These data were first provided by the UK Data Service in June 2005 and are updated semi-annually.<br>
