EU Emission Tracker

Public electricity and heat production

In Netherlands, the sub-sector Public electricity and heat production (part of Energy) was responsible for 35.39 Mt CO₂eq of emissions in the year 2021, which is 21.2% of total emissions in that year. Compared to 1990 (40.19 Mt CO₂eq), emissions have decreased by 11.9%. Under existing measures, emissions are projected to reach 9.05 Mt CO₂eq by 2040.

What is part of this sector? Emissions from incineration of various fuels (oil, gas, biomass, ...) for public electricity and heat production.

This sub-sector accounts for 72.1% of Energy emissions in Netherlands.
