Annual reporting of emissions of the greenhouse gases specified in the Kyoto Protocol to the Secretariat of the UNFCCC comprises emission calculations in a common form (CRF tables) and a related background report (National Inventory Report). Statistics Finland is the national entity responsible for the greenhouse gas inventory in Finland.
The inventory contains annual data on the emissions of direct greenhouse gases: carbon dioxide CO2, methane CH4, nitrous oxide N2O, HFC compounds (hydrofluorocarbons), PFC compounds (perfluorocarbons) and sulphurhexafluoride SF6. In addition the following emissions are tabulated: carbon monoxide CO, nitrogen oxides NOx, sulphur dioxide SO2 and non-methane volatile organic compounds NMVOC. The emissions are estimated using data on activities and emission coefficients. The statistics and the report are in English.
The used classifications are based on the UNFCCC guidelines on reporting and review of the United Nations.
The inventory is produced in collaboration between Statistics Finland and expert organisations (the Finnish Environment Institute, the Finnish Forest Research Institute, Agrifood Research Finland) as defined in Finland’s national inventory system.
The inventory is completed annually in December (data for year x-1) and published in electronic format on Statistics Finland’s website. The inventory is delivered to the Commission of the European Communities in January (data for year x-2) and in its final form to the UNFCCC by 14 April (data for year x-2).
The time series of the inventory start from 1990, which is the base year in accordance with the Kyoto Protocol.
