Austria ́s Annual Greenhouse Gas Inventory 1990-2009

In "Austria's Annual Greenhouse Gas Inventory 1990-2009" the Umweltbundesamt presents up-to-date figures of greenhouse gas emissions in Austria. In 2009, the second year of the 1st commitment period under the Kyoto Protocol, greenhouse gas emissions amounted to 80.1 million t of CO2 equivalents. This corresponds to a 2.5% increase against base-year levels and a 7.8% reduction below 2008 levels. The driving forces behind the emission trend 2008-2009 were the economic crisis - affecting industrial production (steel, cement), power generation and road performance (freight transport) – and the increased use of biofuels. Content and format of this report are in accordance with obligations under the greenhouse gas monitoring mechanism 280/2004/EC for implementing the Kyoto Protocol. Updated emission data have to be reported to the European Commission by 15 January each year.《奥地利1990-2009年度温室气体清单》中，奥地利联邦环境署（Umweltbundesamt）公布了奥地利最新温室气体排放统计数据。2009年作为《京都议定书》（Kyoto Protocol）首个承诺期的第二年，该国温室气体排放量达8010万吨二氧化碳当量（CO₂ equivalents）。这一数值较基准年增长2.5%，较2008年下降7.8%。2008至2009年排放趋势的驱动因素包括：波及工业生产（钢铁、水泥制造）、发电及道路货运的经济危机，以及生物燃料使用量的提升。本报告的内容与格式符合《欧盟280/2004/EC号温室气体监测机制》中落实《京都议定书》的相关义务要求。最新排放数据需于每年1月15日前提交至欧洲委员会（European Commission）。
