CH: CO2 Emissions from Electricity and Heat Production: % of Total Fuel Combustion data is updated yearly, averaging 5.263 % from Dec 1960 (Median) to 2014, with 55 observations.

CH: CO2 Emissions from Electricity and Heat Production: % of Total Fuel Combustion data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Switzerland – Table CH.World Bank: Environment: Pollution. CO2 emissions from electricity and heat production is the sum of three IEA categories of CO2 emissions: (1) Main Activity Producer Electricity and Heat which contains the sum of emissions from main activity producer electricity generation, combined heat and power generation and heat plants. Main activity producers (formerly known as public utilities) are defined as those undertakings whose primary activity is to supply the public. They may be publicly or privately owned. This corresponds to IPCC Source/Sink Category 1 A 1 a. For the CO2 emissions from fuel combustion (summary) file, emissions from own on-site use of fuel in power plants (EPOWERPLT) are also included. (2) Unallocated Autoproducers which contains the emissions from the generation of electricity and/or heat by autoproducers. Autoproducers are defined as undertakings that generate electricity and/or heat, wholly or partly for their own use as an activity which supports their primary activity. They may be privately or publicly owned. In the 1996 IPCC Guidelines, these emissions would normally be distributed between industry, transport and 'other' sectors. (3) Other Energy Industries contains emissions from fuel combusted in petroleum refineries, for the manufacture of solid fuels, coal mining, oil and gas extraction and other energy-producing industries. This corresponds to the IPCC Source/Sink Categories 1 A 1 b and 1 A 1 c. According to the 1996 IPCC Guidelines, emissions from coke inputs to blast furnaces can either be counted here or in the Industrial Processes source/sink category. Within detailed sectoral calculations, certain non-energy processes can be distinguished. In the reduction of iron in a blast furnace through the combustion of coke, the primary purpose of the coke oxidation is to produce pig iron and the emissions can be considered as an industrial process. Care must be taken not to double count these emissions in both Energy and Industrial Processes. In the IEA estimations, these emissions have been included in this category.; ; IEA Statistics © OECD/IEA 2014 (http://www.iea.org/stats/index.asp), subject to https://www.iea.org/t&c/termsandconditions/; Weighted average; Restricted use: Please contact the International Energy Agency for third-party use of these data.

GHG net emissions/removals by LUCF refers to changes in atmospheric levels of all greenhouse gases attributable to forest and land-use change activities, including but not limited to (1) emissions and removals of CO2 from decreases or increases in biomass stocks due to forest management, logging, fuelwood collection, etc.; (2) conversion of existing forests and natural grasslands to other land uses; (3) removal of CO2 from the abandonment of formerly managed lands (e.g. croplands and pastures); and (4) emissions and removals of CO2 in soil associated with land-use change and management. For Annex-I countries under the UNFCCC, these data are drawn from the annual GHG inventories submitted to the UNFCCC by each country; for non-Annex-I countries, data are drawn from the most recently submitted National Communication where available.

Switzerland SF6 Gas Emissions: Thousand Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent
CH: SF6 Gas Emissions: Thousand Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent data was reported at 378.000 Metric Ton th in 2010. This records a decrease from the previous number of 448.300 Metric Ton th for 2008. CH: SF6 Gas Emissions: Thousand Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent data is updated yearly, averaging 378.000 Metric Ton th from Dec 1990 (Median) to 2010, with 5 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 586.800 Metric Ton th in 1990 and a record low of 293.100 Metric Ton th in 2000. CH: SF6 Gas Emissions: Thousand Metric Tons of CO2 Equivalent data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Switzerland – Table CH.World Bank: Environment: Pollution.

Switzerland Total Greenhouse Gas Emissions: % Change from 1990
CH: Total Greenhouse Gas Emissions: % Change from 1990 data was reported at -4.053 % in 2012. This records an increase from the previous number of -5.899 % for 2011. CH: Total Greenhouse Gas Emissions: % Change from 1990 data is updated yearly, averaging -2.991 % from Dec 1991 (Median) to 2012, with 22 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 2.589 % in 1991 and a record low of -6.023 % in 2002. CH: Total Greenhouse Gas Emissions: % Change from 1990 data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Switzerland – Table CH.World Bank: Environment: Pollution. Total greenhouse gas emissions are composed of CO2 totals excluding short-cycle biomass burning (such as agricultural waste burning and Savannah burning) but including other biomass burning (such as forest fires, post-burn decay, peat fires and decay of drained peatlands), all anthropogenic CH4 sources, N2O sources and F-gases (HFCs, PFCs and SF6). Each year of data shows the percentage change to that year from 1990.; ; World Bank staff estimates from original source: European Commission, Joint Research Centre (JRC)/Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency (PBL).
