The Netherlands and the Kyoto target
The Netherlands has cut its greenhouse gas emissions by an average of 4 percent a year in the period 2008-2010 relative to the Kyoto base year, whereas the target is 6 percent. So emissions have to...
Slight drop in greenhouse gas emissions
In 2018, greenhouse gas emissions in the Netherlands were 2 percent lower than one year previously. This is related to less coal being used for electricity production. The emission intensity of the...
Urgenda reduction target for GHG emissions achieved in 2020
In 2020, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the Netherlands were 25.5 percent below the level of 1990.
Dutch greenhouse gas emissions fall further
The emission of greenhouse gases in the Netherlands fell for the fourth year in a row in 2008.
Half of transport GHG emissions are from aviation
In 2018, the volume of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted by the Dutch transport sector amounted to 26 billion CO2 equivalents.
Quarterly estimates of greenhouse gas emissions
Quarterly estimates of greenhouse gas emission in accordance with the IPCC guidelines.
Emissions to air; greenhouse gases and air pollutants
Determining Dutch emissions to the air, both greenhouse gases and air pollutants, broken down into stationary and mobile sources, and in accordance with international regulations.
Mild winter and economic crisis curb greenhouse gas emissions
Greenhouse gas emissions in the Netherlands were more than 6.5 percent lower in 2011 than in 2010. This was caused by a decrease in energy consumption of nearly 7 percent.
The SEEA EEA carbon account for the Netherlands
This document reports on the carbon account for the Netherlands, one of the thematic accounts of the SEEA EEA.
Dutch GHG footprint larger in 2017
Following a decline as of 2008, the GHG footprint of the Netherlands increased again, according to initial estimates.
Richer households cause more greenhouse gas emissions
The production of goods and services bought by households cause greenhouse gas emissions. On average a household in the Netherlands causes over 22 tons of CO2 equivalents in emissions.
Linking Microdata and analysis of enterprises in EU ETS
The registry at and monitoring of the ETS – companies by the Dutch Emissions Authority (NEa, Nederlandse Emissieautoriteit), are the starting point for linkage to the CBS data infrastructure in this...
Greenhouse gas emissions slightly down in 2017
In 2017, greenhouse gas emissions in the Netherlands were 1 percent lower than in the previous year.
Lower greenhouse gas emissions despite cold winter
Last year, greenhouse gas emissions in the Netherlands were nearly 1 percent below the level of 2011. The cold weather conditions in winter prompted consumers to use more natural gas for home...
Greenhouse gas emissions 9 percent lower in 2022
In 2022, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions were 9 percent lower than in 2021. This was mainly due to lower natural gas consumption in manufacturing, the built environment and agriculture
