Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the Netherlands: Summary Report 1990-1998 (IPCC Tables 1-7)

Report | 24-07-2000

This report documents the 1998 Netherlands' annual submission of its greenhouse gas emission inventory according to the European Union's Greenhouse Gas Monitoring Mechanism and to the United Nation's Framework Convention on Climate Change (FCCC). From the inventories it can be concluded that emissions of CO2 and N2O increased from 1990 to 1998 by about 12% and 9%, respectively, while in the same period CH4 emissions have decreased by 18%. Of the new gases, for which 1995 is a reference year, emissions of PFCs increased by 4% in 1998, while emissions of HFCs and SF6 (potential) remained at the same level. Total CO2-eq. emissions have increased in 1998 by 8% relative to 1990 (1995 for fluorinated gases) (6% when correcting for temperature).
