In 2019, the European Commission presented the European Green Deal.

Collecting climate data should be just as routine for statistical institutes around the world as collecting data on the population or the economy.

In Q3 2023, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions were 9 percent lower than in Q3 2022. This was mainly due to lower emissions from the electricity sector.

Between 2019 and 2022, the share of renewable energy in the Netherlands rose from 9 to 15 percent.

Structural changes in material use since 1950 are presented and analysed. An Index Decomposition Analysis for CO2 emissions is conducted.

In Q2 2023, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions were 5 percent lower than in Q2 2022. This was mainly due to lower emissions from the electricity sector.

In Q1 2023, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions were 4 percent lower than in Q1 2022. This was mainly due to lower emissions from the built environment and manufacturing.

On 14 March 2023, Statistics Netherlands (CBS) organised a Green Deal Workshop to focus on key issues such as climate change, energy, the environment and nature and their associated challenges and...

Dutch greenhouse gas emissions, calculated according to the IPCC directives, by source category

Across the world, there is an increasing need for information on climate change and energy transition, environmental quality and circularity, and nature and biodiversity.

In Q3 2022, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions showed a year-on-year decrease of 4 percent. This is mainly because natural gas consumption was down.

In Q2 2022, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions showed a year-on-year decrease of 9 percent. This is mainly because natural gas consumption was down.

In Q1 2022, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions showed a year-on-year decrease of 11 percent. This is mainly because natural gas consumption was down by a quarter.

In 2021, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions showed a year-on-year increase of 2.1 percent. This means that the sharp reduction of emissions in 2020 did not continue.

IIn Q3 2021, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions showed a year-on-year decrease of 3 percent. The decrease is mainly due to lower electricity production.

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