CO₂Emissions from Fuel Combustion - 2011 Highlights

The IEA helps to inform the debate on climate change leading up to Durban

How much CO₂are countries emitting? Where is it coming from?

In the lead-up to the UN climate negotiations in Durban, the latest information on the level and growth of CO₂emissions, their source and geographic distribution will be essential to lay the foundation for a global agreement. To provide input to and support for the UN process the IEA is making available for free download the "Highlights" version of CO₂Emissions from Fuel Combustion.

This annual publication contains:

  • estimates of CO₂emissions by country from 1971 to 2009
  • selected indicators such as CO₂/ GDP, CO₂/ capita, CO₂/ TPES and CO₂/ kWh
  • CO₂emissions from international marine and aviation bunkers, and other relevant information
These estimates have been calculated using the IEA energy databases and the default methods and emission factors from the Revised 1996 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories.

The tables available in the PDF document can also be downloaded in a separate EXCEL file.
