Details

These data have been extracted from the UK Greenhouse Gas Inventory that is presented on an annual basis to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The Greenhouse Gas Inventory is developed independently to the UK Emissions Trading Scheme (UK ETS).

The factors in these tables should only be used in accordance with the requirements in an installation’s approved monitoring plan, which is part of the greenhouse gas emissions permit or hospital or small emitter permit.

See previous tables for UK participation in the EU ETS (link to National Archive site).
