In "Austria's Annual Greenhouse Gas Inventory 1990–2019" the Umweltbundesamt presents updated figures of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Austria including the first seven years of the second commitment period under the Kyoto-Protocol. In 2019 GHG emissions amounted to 79.8 million tonnes of CO2 equivalents. This corresponds to a 1.8% increase against 1990 and a 1.5% increase compared to 2018. Key drivers for the development 2018–2019 were the higher production of iron and steel as well as the increasing electricity production from natural gas power plants.
GHG emissions according to Article 2(1) of Decision No. 406/2009/EC (“Effort Sharing Decision”) amounted to 50.2 Mt CO2 equivalents in 2019 and were thus 1.9 Mt CO2 equivalents above the annual emission allocation for 2019. Content and format of this report are in accordance with the obligations under the GHG Monitoring Mechanism Regulation (EU) No. 525/2013.
