Integrated national climate and energy policies and measures

Integrated national climate and energy ‘policies and measures’ (PaMs) cover all actions which contribute to meeting the objectives of the integrated national energy and climate plans. European countries are committed to adopting, implementing and planning policies and taking the corresponding measures to achieve climate change mitigation and energy targets, such as reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, producing additional renewable energy, or reducing overall energy consumption. All European countries report information on implemented, adopted or planned PaMs every 2 years under the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action Regulation and its two Implementing Regulations (EU) 2020/1208 and (EU) 2022/2299.

Climate related hazards

This series refers to datasets related to the potential occurrence of a climate-induced physical event or trend that may cause loss of life, injury, or other health impacts, as well as damage and loss to property, infrastructure, livelihoods, service provision, ecosystems and environmental resources. It includes datasets on flooding, drought, urban heat island and heatwaves, extreme temperatures and precipitations, fire danger as well as climate suitability for vectors of infectious diseases. The datasets are part of the European Climate Adaptation Platform (Climate-ADAPT) accessible here: https://climate-adapt.eea.europa.eu/

Total GHG emissions and removals in the EU

Data on Total greenhouse gas emissions and removals of the EU, based on data reported by EU Member States under the EU Governance Regulation. This data set reflects the GHG inventory data by year as reported under the United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change.

Member States' greenhouse gas (GHG) emission projections

The Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action ((EU) 2018/1999) requires Member States to report national projections of anthropogenic GHG emissions. Every two years, each EU Member State shall report GHG projections in a ‘with existing measures’ scenario for the years 2020, 2025, 2030, 2035, 2040, 2045 and 2050 by gas (or group of gases) and by sector. National projections shall take into consideration any policies and measures adopted at Union level. The reported data are quality checked by the EEA and its European Topic Centre for Climate Change Mitigation and Energy (ETC/CME).

Monitoring of CO2 emissions from passenger cars Regulation (EU) 2019/631

The Regulation (EU) No 2019/631 requires Countries to record information for each new passenger car registered in its territory. Every year, each Member State shall submit to the Commission all the information related to their new registrations. In particular, the following details are required for each new passenger car registered: manufacturer name, type approval number, type, variant, version, make and commercial name, specific emissions of CO2 (NEDC and WLTP protocols), masses of the vehicle, wheel base, track width, engine capacity and power, fuel type and mode, eco-innovations and electricity consumption. Data for EU-27 and UK are reported in the main database.

Greenhouse gas emissions under the Effort Sharing Legislation, 2005-2023

The Effort Sharing legislation covers greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from domestic transport, buildings, agriculture, small industry and waste, and accounts for more than 60 % of total EU GHG emissions. For the period 2013-2020, the Effort Sharing Decision established annual greenhouse gas emission targets for Member States, using global warming potentials (GWPs) from the Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and excluding NF3 emissions. For the period 2021-2030, emissions are regulated by the Effort Sharing Regulation (ESR), including NF3 emissions and with the use of the GWP values of the IPCC AR5. The EEA coordinates the Effort Sharing Legislation review of Member States’ greenhouse gas inventories, so that the European Commission can determine compliance with the annual Effort Sharing Legislation targets on the basis of accurate, reliable and verified emission data. Review reports and final Effort Sharing Legislation emissions are published by the European Commission. The Effort Sharing Legislation emissions for the period 2005–2012 and for the latest year ('Y-1') are estimated by EEA on the basis of national GHG inventory data and ETS emissions.

EEA 2023 proxies on primary and final energy consumption

The recast Energy Efficiency Directive (EU) 2023/1791 sets a binding target for 2030 of 763 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) for final energy consumption (FEC), and an indicative target of 992.5Mtoe for primary energy consumption (PEC). Since early access to the most recent information on energy consumption is relevant for all stakeholders, the EEA and its European Topic Centre for Climate Change Mitigation and Energy (ETC/CME) produce each year a set of early estimates concerning the consumption of primary and final energy in the previous year, across the EU as a whole and in each Member State. These estimates are compatible with the scope of the energy efficiency targets for 2020 and 2030, and they correspond to the indicator codes PEC2020-2030 and FEC2020-2030 from Eurostat. The current data set covers the EEA 2023 approximated data on primary and final energy consumption (PEC2020-2030; FEC2020-2030).

Approximated estimates for the share of gross final consumption of renewable energy sources, 2023

The EU formally adopted an update of the Renewable Energy Directive (EU) 2018/2001 in October 2023 that, among other measures, increases the binding 2030 target from 32% to 42.5%, with the aim of achieving 45%. Since early access to the most recent information on the growth of RES is relevant for all stakeholders, the EEA and its European Topic Centre for Climate Change Mitigation and Energy (ETC/CME) produce each year a set of early estimates concerning the RES shares achieved by the countries and the EU as a whole in the previous year. The current data set concerns the EEA 2023 RES share proxies. The cut-off date for most data sources incorporated in the calculation of the approximated RES shares is 31 August of the publication year.
