Solid fuels

In Belgium, the sub-sector Solid fuels (part of Energy) was responsible for 0.04 Mt CO₂eq of emissions in the year 2021, which is 0.035% of total emissions in that year. Compared to 1990 (0.48 Mt CO₂eq), emissions have decreased by 92.1%. Under existing measures, emissions are projected to reach 0.04 Mt CO₂eq by 2050.

What is part of this sector? Emissions from coal mining and emissions (e.g. methane) that escape from abandoned mines.

This sub-sector accounts for 0.2% of Energy emissions in Belgium.
