The aim of these statistics is to provide the most reliable and consistent possible breakdown of CO2 emissions across the country, using nationally available data sets going back to 2005. The main data sources are the UK National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory and BEISs National Statistics of energy consumption for local authority areas. All emissions included in the national inventory are covered, except aviation, shipping and military transport, for which there is no obvious basis for allocation to local areas. Publications
In addition, on the National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory NAEI website, interactive local authority level emissions maps are published on behalf of BEIS. These allow users to zoom in to any UK local authority and see the emissions for the area, and also identify the significant point sources, such as iron and steel plants. It is also possible to filter by different sectors, and view how emissions have changed across the time series. Air pollution data are also available on a local authority basis which looks at a number of gases that cause air pollution. Carbon dioxide which is presented in the emissions reports above is also considered an air pollutant. A number of activities contribute to both air pollutant and carbon dioxide emissions. Other activities that contribute to carbon dioxide emissions do not contribute to air pollutant emissions and vice versa. This is a National Statistics publication and complies with the code of practice for official statistics.
The revised Renewable Energy Directive (2018/2001) and the amended Energy Efficiency Directive (2018/2002) set separate EU level targets on renewable energy and energy efficiency in 2018. For renewable energy, a binding target of at least 32 % of final energy consumption by 2030 was set. Concerning energy efficiency, it is a headline target of at least 32.5 %. Both the renewable energy target and the energy efficiency target include a review clause by 2023 for an upward revision. Beyond these periods and targets, on 28 November 2018, the European Commission presented and adopted its strategic vision for 2050. Under the Long Term Strategic Vision on GHG Emissions Reduction, the European Commission showed long-term pathways and called for a climate-neutral Europe by 2050. It is expected that the long-term strategy is adopted and submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) as required under the Paris Agreement. In Table 6, all GHG relevant targets for the EU and their key facts are displayed in an overview. On the left, the table includes the international commitments under the Kyoto Protocol, the UNFCCC and the Paris Agreement. On the right, the EU commitments under the 2020 Climate and Energy Package and the 2030 Climate and Energy Framework are listed.

Building on the announcement last year of up to GBP 1 billion of additional funding to develop the next generation of cutting-edge automotive technologies, the government is making GBP 10 million of funding available immediately for the first wave of innovative R&D projects. This will scale up manufacturing of the latest technology in batteries, motors, electronics and fuel cells. The government is also calling upon the automotive industry to put forward investment proposals for the UK’s first ‘gigafactory’, and supporting supply chains to mass manufacture cutting-edge batteries for the next generation of EVs, as well as for other strategic EV technologies. The Net Zero Strategy allocates an extra £350 million for the electrification of UK vehicles and their supply chains.
The reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from the sources within the scope of the scheme by 21% compared to their 2005 levels is set for all EU Member States through a linear factor for reducing the permitted emission caps for the sectors under the ETS. For the non-ETS sectors Bulgaria has an individual commitment allowing an increase in emissions by 20% compared to their 2005 level. The national objectives of the Member States, in terms of share of renewables in the final energy consumption by 2020 range from 10% to 49%. Bulgaria's goal is set at 16%, including 10% share of biofuels in the final consumption of transport fuels.
of 30 June 2021 establishing the framework for achieving climate neutrality and amending Regulations (EC) No 401/2009 and (EU) 2018/1999 (‘European Climate Law’) THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
The measure extends the current 100% first-year allowance (FYA) for expenditure incurred on electric charge-point equipment. The allowance will expire on 31 March 2023 for Corporation Tax purposes and 5 April 2023 for Income Tax purposes. The measure is designed to encourage the use of electric vehicles by supporting the development and installation of electric charging equipment of such vehicles. It will promote the use of cleaner vehicles by making electric charge-points a more common feature. The measure complements the 100% FYA for expenditure on cars with low carbon dioxide emissions and 100% FYA for expenditure on zero-emission goods vehicles. This measure was first introduced on 23 November 2016 to support the transition in the UK to cleaner vehicles with zero or ultra-low emissions, which will improve air quality and make the UK a more environmentally friendly place. The measure will have effect for expenditure incurred on or after 1 April 2019 for Corporation Tax and 6 April 2019 for Income Tax purposes. It will expire on 31 March 2023 for Corporation Tax and 5 April 2023 for Income Tax purposes. Current law is contained in Section 45EA Capital Allowances Act 2001. Legislation will be introduced in Finance Bill 2018-19 to extend the FYA for a further 4 years.
Income is a means to improve living standards, but it is not the only factor contributing to poverty reduction. Raising income levels without achieving parallel improvements in the delivery of social services will not solve the poverty problem. It is also important to monitor such indicators as infant and child mortality, maternal mortality, food security and child nutrition, incidence of communicable diseases, school attendance and enrolment rates, and school learning achievement results. the available data suggest a strategy that accounts for the following:  Ozone depletion, climate change, reduction of biodiversity, natural disasters, and environmental pollution can cause the spreading of various diseases. Respiratory tract infection, parasitic infection, blood circulation diseases and indigestion are widespread in Azerbaijan. The incidence of communicable diseases that can be easily prevented, such as TB and malaria, is going down, but the situation requires close attention. This requires investment in preventative measures in the public health services, and for children ensuring full coverage with immunization programs. Under-nutrition and malnutrition problems continue to affect vulnerable groups, particularly but not solely the internally displaced. There is a need to intervene with special programs for these groups. School enrolment rates are high, but there are concerns about growing differentials in quality of education provided at schools. Increased public investment in education is necessary to ensure that all children are provided with the same opportunities. Housing conditions for vulnerable sections of the population are unsatisfactory, and affect the health status of household members. Overcrowding, heating with non-clean fuels, the lack of regular electricity supply, and the lack of access to piped water are problems faced by a large section of the IDP population and other vulnerable groups. Public investment must prioritize improvements in social infrastructure for these groups. 2.2. Significant Points for Policy Formulation

predetermining public budgets. The measures set out in the Climate Action Plan 2050 will be funded from the individual budgets when the relevant federal budget is drawn up. It is also crucial that electricity and other forms of energy remain affordable to avoid compromising economic development and social participation. With this in mind, we have a particular responsibility when implementing the Energiewende to create a regulatory framework for our energy and climate policy which guarantees affordability and a fair distribution of costs. The success of climate action depends crucially on the acceptance of necessary measures and on broad-scale public participation. The Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB) therefore set up a comprehensive ex ante dialogue and participation process in order to give representatives of the Länder (federal states) and local authorities, business and industry and civil society associations, and the general public the opportunity to play an active role in developing the Climate Action Plan 2050 and make suggestions for specific measures. We will continue the dialogue with the affected sectors and their businesses, the trade unions their workforces belongs to, associations and civil society on the basis of the Climate Action Plan 2050 as it now stands. The Climate Action Plan 2050 implements this modernisation strategy on three levels:

The EU Effort Sharing Decision (ESD) establishes binding annual greenhouse gas emission levels for Member States for the period 2013-2020. The ESD covers the emissions from the non-emissions trading sector (non-ETS) calculated as the total national emissions without LULUCF minus the national emissions in EU Emission trading sector for the Member State in question. The CO emissions from civil aviation are also excluded from the non-ETS emissions. The non-ETS emissions come from sources such as transport, housing, agriculture and waste. The emissions will be cut by approximately 10 per cent from the 2005 level by 2020 within the EU as a whole. The ESD sets Finland's reduction obligation for the sectors not covered by the EU ETS as 16 per cent of the 2005 emissions. This reduction obligation has been determined in CO2 equivalent (eq) tonnes after the EU internal review of the 2012 greenhouse gas emission inventory submission in the Commission Decision 2013/163/EU. The decision sets annual emission allocation for each Member State for the year 2013 to 2020. The Commission Implementing Decision 2013/634/EU adjusts these annual emission allocations taking into account the changes in coverage of the EU Emission Trading System from 2013 onwards.

The change that is going to be experienced over the next three decades will be the aggregate result of the respective sectoral transitions. Within the context of the Long-Term Decarbonisation Strategy and the Integrated National Plan for Energy and Climate, coordinated actions focused on achieving climate neutrality in the different economic sectors by 2050 are framed. Specifically, the Hydrogen Roadmap establishes decarbonisation objectives for those sectors whose, such as the industrial sector, mobility or the decarbonisation of the electricity and energy storage sectors. Along the same lines, the Biogas Roadmap will try to promote the use of this renewable gas to contribute to decarbonisation. Likewise, the Energy Storage Strategy comprehensively analyzes the storage needs for the transition of the energy system, taking into account an intersectoral perspective.

ENERGY STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA UNTIL 2020. The national target must be achieved by increasing the production of electricity from renewable sources, the final consumption of energy from renewable sources for heating and cooling and the consumption of energy from renewable sources in transport. Of the sectoral goals, only the one for consumption of renewable sources in the transport sector is mandatory - a 10 percent share of energy from renewable sources in transport consumption by 2020. The prices of energy produced from renewable sources are the only ones that will decrease in the longer term given the progress of production technologies. The prices of traditional energy resources will increase due to the depletion of fossil resources and their environmental characteristics. These two trends will lead to a convergence of existing price differences. In the next decade, however, the need for support for the entry of RES is not expected to disappear.
These Regulations provide a consolidated system of environmental permitting in England and Wales. They transpose provisions of 15 Directives which impose obligations required to be delivered through permits or capable of being delivered through permits. They define the term “regulated facility” and require every regulated facility to be operated under the authority of an environmental permit. They also: set out the procedures in relation to environmental permits; provide with respect to administration and enforcement related to permitting; provide for public registers to be kept by the regulator; confer powers on the regulator, Secretary of State and Welsh Ministers and imposes duties on the regulator. This includes power for the regulator to prevent or remedy pollution and to recover associated costs from the operator, a requirement on the appropriate agency to publish a public participation statement, and power for the Secretary of State or Welsh Ministers to make schemes setting fees and charges in relation to local authority functions under these Regulations.
The Rt Hon Jonathan Reynolds MP Secretary of State for Business & Trade President of the Board of Trade Department for Business and Trade Chair, Business and Trade Committee Reynolds.Correspondence@businessandtrade.gov.uk Thank you for your letter of 12 June regarding the Climate Change Committee invitation. As you know, this Government is committed to making Britain a clean energy superpower, which is why my department has included Clean Energy Industries as one of the Industrial Strategy’s eight growth sectors and Net Zero is a cross-cutting objective in all sector plans. The Clean Energy Industries Sector Plan sets out how the Government will secure growth in clean energy industries and unlock investment in the sector, particularly our domestic This work is being led by the Minister for Industry who serves in my department and the Department for Energy and Net Zero to ensure that Clean Energy industries receive the support they need to thrive and deliver on our net zero ambitions. I greatly value the important work of the Climate Change Committee. On this occasion, I was unable to accept the Committee’s invitation due to an overseas trade visit. If the Committee would still like to brief the department, my officials would be happy to take up I am copying this letter to the Chair of the Environmental Audit Committee and the Chair of the Energy Security and Net Zero Committee.
