Chapter 4. Case Study: Spain 173
Table 4 - 5. Change in emissions from base (1990) to latest reported year (2006) and current (2006)
progress to targets for Spain
Current CO2 (1990-2006) 57,38 %
Current non-CO2 (1990-2006) 24,56 %
Current total GHGs (1990-2006) 50,63 %
Kyoto target (KT) 15,00 %
Difference with KT 35,63 %
EC's proposed target (ECT) 31,80 %
Difference with ECT 18,83 %
2.3 Factors and indicators by sector
The share of national emissions among sectors, presented in table 4 – 6, is
determined by several factors, which include the contribution of each sector to
GDP, the efficiency of the use of energy for production and the carbon intensity
of the production processes.
The split of sector for the purpose of this document is based on the source
categories of the Revised 1996 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas
Inventories.
Background information and drivers of emissions at a sectoral level will be
presented, together with a performance indicator for each of the sectors
(electricity, industry, transport, households & services, agriculture, waste,
LULUCF, and international aviation and shipping). In most cases the indicator
is emission intensity (i.e. per kilowatt-hours (kWh), per ton of product) or per
capita emissions.
