In the EU, CO 2 emissions from road transport have increased by 23% between 1990 and 2010, becoming responsible for approximately one fifth of the EU’s total emissions. This was mostly due to a sharp decline in uptake in France and Italy, countries where this fuel is most commonly used. In 2011, 55.2%

Well-to-Propeller GHG emissions results for marine alternative fuels. DNV GL has released a position paper on the future alternative fuel mix for global shipping. The global merchant fleet currently consumes around 330 million tonnes of fuel annually, 80-85 per cent of which is residual fuel with high sulfur content.

The higher share of gas led to an improved carbon intensity of fossil fuel consumption in many Member States. Other findings include: Emissions were higher in most of the key sectors in 2010, particularly those sectors relying on fossil-fuel combustion. Spain, Greece and Portugal again reported lower GHG emissions in 2010.

The report explored three major options for monetizing the resource: an onshore LNG plant; a transnational undersea pipeline; and the deployment of a CNG marine transport system. Cyprus faces serious shortages of both drinking water and energy; the nation uses fossil fuels to power water desalination, so the two problems are intertwined.
