Notes on data changes

Here we list notes explaining important emissions changes for the country. ’' means that the following text only applies to the TP time series, while  means that it only applies to the CR scenario. Otherwise the note applies to both scenarios.

  • Lower energy CO2 in 2022 (CR) is from EEA2024 data. Higher energy CO2 in 2022 (TP from higher EI data)
  • HFCs are lower in 2022 and cumulatively because the downward trend of the lasts years is continued which was not fully picked up by the extrapolation used in v2.5.1 (CR and TP)
  • Cement CO2 is lower in 2022 due to a decline in emissions not modeled by the Andrew cement data used in v2.5.1
  • Agricultural N2O is lower in 2022 because of a downward trend in emissions in 2022 which was not modeled by extrapolation.
  • Waste emissions changes in the TP time-series are due to the removal of FAOSTAT data.

Changes by sector and gas

For each scenario and time frame the changes are displayed for all individual sectors and all individual gases. In the sector plot we use aggregate Kyoto GHGs in AR6GWP100. In the gas plot we usenational total emissions without LULUCF. ## country reported scenario
