Less coal was used to produce heat and electricity but this was offset by higher industrial and transport emissions, the latter increasing for the fourth consecutive year. Poland and Spain accounted for the largest increases in greenhouse gas emissions in absolute terms in 2017. Source: EEA. in 2017 compared with 2016.

Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions across the European Union rose slightly in 2017, mostly because of the transport sector. The rise is mostly due to the increase of oil consumption from road transport. The energy sector was able to reduce its emissions due to the decreasing share of coal used to produce electricity and heat in the EU.

Unlike other renewable energy sources, hydrogen can fuel hard-to-decarbonize heavy industrial sectors like steel, heavy transport, and cement. Producers of so-called blue, gray and brown hydrogen use either fossil fuels (natural gas or coal) or low-temperature gasification (.

Emissions from international transport (aviation and shipping) contribute another 3% to the total global GHG emissions. CH 4 is mainly generated by agricultural activities, the production of coal and gas, as well as waste treatment and disposal. N 2 O is mainly emitted by agricultural soil activities and chemical production.

Analysis by the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) argues that EVs are the quickest means to decarbonize motorized transport. Transportation accounts for only 27 percent of greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) in the U.S.; In Poland and China, for example, an EV would need to be driven 78,700 miles to break-even.

The Darlington SMR will provide a critical new source of clean nuclear energy for Ontario’s future projected energy capacity needs—a demand widely expected to ramp up as transportation and other sectors electrify, using Ontario’s clean power to help decarbonize the broader economy. Spur SMR deployment elsewhere in Canada and abroad.

Other findings of the report include: The road transport sector remains a major source of air pollution in the EU-27. Energy use by households (the burning of wood, gas, coal etc) is the most important source of PM 2.5 France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain and the United Kingdom contributed the most to EU-27 emissions in 2007.
