Statistical data set

Transport energy and environment: data tables (ENV)

Data about fuel consumption and emissions for different transport modes.

Note that data tables in the transport energy and environment series are updated based on the most recently available data sources. As such the period of coverage will differ between tables. Each table name provides the period covered by the data.

Fuel consumption (ENV01)

ENV0101: Petroleum consumption by transport mode and fuel type: United Kingdom, 1990 to 2023 (ODS, 24.1 KB)

ENV0102: Energy consumption by transport mode and energy source: United Kingdom, 1998 to 2023 (ODS, 15.2 KB)

ENV0105: Petrol and diesel prices and duties per litre in April: United Kingdom, 1990 to 2024 (ODS, 14.5 KB)

Greenhouse gas emissions (ENV02)

ENV0201: Greenhouse gas emissions by transport mode: United Kingdom, 1990 to 2022 (ODS, 34.8 KB)

ENV0202: Carbon dioxide emissions by transport mode: United Kingdom, 1990 to 2022 (ODS, 34.3 KB)

Pollutants, emissions and noise (ENV03)

ENV0301: Air pollutant emissions by transport mode: United Kingdom, 1990 to 2022 (ODS, 136 KB)

ENV0302: Index of average hot-exhaust emissions for road vehicles in urban conditions: United Kingdom, 1992 to 2022 (ODS, 15.5 KB)

ENV0303: Population affected by aircraft noise around airports: United Kingdom, 2000 to 2023 (ODS, 25.1 KB)

Emissions from journeys (ENV07)

Note that the current version of ENV0701 covers journey emissions estimates for 2023 and was last updated in October 2023. An update to this data is expected in 2025. The methodology for this analysis can be found on the transport energy and environment statistics information page.

ENV0701: Emissions from journeys across the United Kingdom, by mode: United Kingdom, 2023 (ODS, 32.6 KB)

Discontinued tables

The following data tables have been discontinued, either because they have moved to a new location or because of data quality review. The most recently updated versions are available here for transparency.

We recommend using data from the Vehicle Certification Agency for car fuel consumption data.

ENV0103: Average new car fuel consumption: Great Britain (ODS, 24.5 KB)

Heavy good vehicle fuel consumption has been discontinued as the data is not currently considered robust enough to meet our quality standards. This is subject to review. Related road freight statistics are available.

ENV0104: Average heavy goods vehicle fuel consumption: Great Britain (ODS, 23.3 KB)

Renewable fuel statistics data is now published in a separate collection.

ENV0501: Volume of fuels by fuel type: United Kingdom (ODS, 20.7 KB)

ENV0502: Renewable fuels by country of source feedstock (ODS, 48.1 KB)

ENV0503: Greenhouse gas emissions savings from the use of renewable fuels (ODS, 10.8 KB)

Electric vehicle charging infrastructure statistics are now published in a separate collection.

ENV0601: Electric vehicle charging devices by local authority (ODS, 35.5 KB)
