In 2022, electricity production from renewable sources increased by 20 percent year on year.

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

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 Q2 2022, electricity production from coal increased by 40 percent year on year.

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.

In 2021, electricity production declined by 2.2 billion kWh year on year, to 117.9 billion kWh.

In 2021, total natural gas consumption in the Netherlands amounted to 40 billion cubic metres (m3), against 42 billion in the previous year.

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 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.
