In 2020 the combustion of biomass produced 19 megatonnes of CO2, 16 percent up on the previous year.

In Q2 2021, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions showed a year-on-year increase of 11 percent. This means emissions are nearing pre-COVID levels.

In Q1 2021, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions showed a year-on-year increase of 1.4 percent. This is mainly due to higher natural gas consumption for heating and higher electricity production.

Quarterly estimates of greenhouse gas emission in accordance with the IPCC guidelines.

In 2020, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions showed a year-on-year decline of 8 percent to 166 megatonnes CO2 equivalent.

In the third quarter of 2020, CO 2 emissions were 4.5 percent down year-on-year.

In the second quarter of 2020, CO 2 emissions were 21.1 percent down year-on-year.

In the first quarter of 2020, CO 2 emissions were 8.7 percent down year-on-year.

In 2019, greenhouse gas emissions declined by 3 percent (5.7 megatonnes) to 182.5 megatonnes of CO2 equivalents year-on-year.

In the fourth quarter of 2019, CO 2 emissions were 1.8 percent up year-on-year.

In the third quarter of 2019, CO2 emissions were 4.4 percent down year-on-year.

In the second quarter of 2019, CO2 emissions were 2.9 percent up year-on-year.

Greenhouse gas emissions stood at 189.3 bn CO2 equivalents in 2018, 2 percent lower than in 2017 and 15 percent down on 1990.

Which sectors emit greenhouse gases?

The average greenhouse gas footprint of Dutch consumers rose from 15.1 tonnes CO2 equivalents per capita in 2017 to 15.8 tonnes in 2018. Between 2008 and 2016 the footprint declined. Consumption of...

IIn Q1 2019, CO2 emissions in the Netherlands were down by 0.8 percent year-on-year.

In Q4 2018, CO2 emissions in the Netherlands were up by 0.5 percent year-on-year. Households and the transport sector emitted more CO2, while energy companies produced less.

In Q3 2018, CO2 emissions in the Netherlands were up by 0.1 percent year-on-year. Households and the services sector emitted less CO2, while energy companies contributed slightly more.

In 2017, 80 thousand heat pumps were installed which extract heat from the outside air.

In Q2 2018, CO2 emissions in the Netherlands were 3.8 percent down year-on-year. The decline was mainly the result of reduced natural gas consumption for heating.

In Q1 2018, CO2 emissions in the Netherlands were 2.5 percent up year-on-year.

In 2017, greenhouse gas emissions in the Netherlands were 1 percent lower than in the previous year.
