Notes on data changes

Here we list notes explaining important emissions changes for the country.

  • CRT data from BTR1 has been added. It covers 1990-2022 and replaces and extends NIR5 data.
    • The main change for 2023 and cumulative emissions is a 99.7% reduction of fugitive CO2 (flaring). The emissions in BTE1 are much higher than in BUR4, but much lower than in NIR5 that was used in the last PRIMAP-hist version. CH4 in 1.B2 has strongly increased.
    • Another important factor for the CR scenario are the higher waste CH4 emissions.
  • Changes in the TP scenario are smaller. The main factor are lower CH4 emissions from waste, and fugitive emissions (from EDGAR). Waste CO2 is much higher. This change comes from CRT data as there is no third party source for waste CO2 emissions.

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.
