Eurostat is the Statistical Office of the European Communities. Its mission is to provide the European Union with high-quality statistical information. For that purpose, it gathers and analyses figures from the national statistical offices across Europe and provides comparable and harmonised data for the European Union to use in the definition, implementation and analysis of Community policies. Its statistical products and services are also of great value to Europes business community, professional organisations, academics, librarians, NGOs, the media and citizens. Eurostat's publications programme consists of several collections: News releases provide recent information on the Euro-Indicators and on social, economic, regional, agricultural or environmental topics. Statistical books are larger A4 publications with statistical data and analysis. Pocketbooks are free of charge publications aiming to give users a set of basic figures on a specific topic. Statistics in focus provides updated summaries of the main results of surveys, studies and statistical analysis. Data in focus present the most recent statistics with methodological notes. Methodologies and working papers are technical publications for statistical experts working in a particular field. Eurostat publications can be ordered via the EU Bookshop at http://bookshop.europa.eu. All publications are also downloadable free of charge in PDF format from the Eurostat website http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat. Furthermore, Eurostats databases are freely available there, as are tables with the most frequently used and demanded short- and long-term indicators. Eurostat has set up with the members of the European statistical system (ESS) a network of user support centres which exist in nearly all Member States as well as in some EFTA countries. Their mission is to provide help and guidance to Internet users of European statistical data. Contact details for this support network can be found on Eurostat Internet site.
Introduction
Energy, Transport and Environment Indicators Since its first edition, this publication presents facts and figures from the Energy, Transport and Environment sectors, all in a single volume. Where available, data for EU-27 are included this year for the first time. The pocketbook contains three chapters of selected indicators for Energy, Transport and Environment issues. Energy indicators include energy supply, final energy consumption, renewable energy sources, and the structure of the energy industry, energy dependency, energy efficiency, and energy prices. Transport indicators cover infrastructure, equipment, transport of passengers and freight and road safety. The Environment chapter includes indicators on climate change and greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution, municipal waste, water use, biodiversity, toxic chemicals and pesticides, environmental protection expenditure and environmental accounts. In the majority of cases the indicators contain national data for the 27 EU Member States, the EFTA and candidate countries. Where aggregated data for EU-27 (or EU-25) are available, they are presented, in general, for the period from 1995 to 2005 (Transport, mainly from 2000 to 2005 and Energy prices from 1995 to 2007). The main data source for indicators is the harmonised EU Energy Statistics although other official Eurostat data sources such as the OECD/Eurostat Joint Questionnaire on the state of the environment have also been used. The bulk of data on emissions have been provided by the European Environment Agency while the most important data sources for transport indicators are the EU legal acts on transport statistics and the Eurostat/UNECE/ECMT Common Questionnaire. For detailed data please check: - free data available on the Eurostat web site at http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat - DG Energy and Transport web site (DG TREN pocketbook updated regularly at http://ec.europa.eu/dgs/energy_transport/figures/pocketbook/). - European Environment Agency (EEA) web site at http://eea.europa.eu

Currently, approximately 50% of the EU energy consumption is imported. The EU is highly dependent on oil (82%) and natural gas (58%) and the forecasts show the same trend for the next decades. Furthermore, there is an accelerating decline in the resources of fossil fuels which are concentrated in few producing countries In the last decade (1995-2005) total energy dependency rate of the 27 EU Member States increased by 9 percentage points. Eleven countries were in 2005 less dependent than in 1995, and other eleven countries increased their dependency by 0.4% to 9.6%. Hungary, Poland, Netherlands and Ireland experienced bigger increase of energy dependency by 14%-20%. As for the United Kingdom (which had in 1995 energy dependency rate of -16%), the situation was almost reversed in 2005. Among the EU-27, only Denmark had in 2005 a negative energy dependency of -51.6% while sixteen countries had higher energy dependency ratio than the EU-27 average. Norway, a very significant oil and gas supplier to Europe had six times more energy exports than their own consumption.

EU-27 energy dependency of hard coal and derived products was 28.2% in 1995 and almost double (53%) in 2005. Among the 27 Member States, only the Czech Republic and Poland are exporting countries, supplying mainly other EU countries. It must be noted that although 20 MS have a dependency ratio above 90%, the effect to the EU average is not significant. This is attributed to the exporting activity of Czech Republic and Poland and also to the high share of hard coal and derived products in the energy balances of both countries. The share of hard coal and derived products in the energy balances of Czech Republic and Poland amounts to 45% while the average share for the remaining countries is 11%.

The EU-27 is highly dependent on imported oil. In 2007 the energy dependence rate for oil raised to 82.2% compared with 74.4% in 1995. At EU-27 level, primary production of crude oil decreased by 23% (39 Mtoe), while the imports increased by 12% over the period under consideration. In 1995, only the United Kingdom was net oil exporter and became simply oil independent with only 2 Mtoe net exports in 2005. On the other hand, Denmark which was net oil import country in 1995 developed to net oil exporter with more oil exports in recent years than the gross inland consumption. All Member States (except for: Romania, Estonia, Hungary, Slovakia and the two net exporting countries mentioned above) have an oil dependency rate greater than 90%.

Data Source: Eurostat Note: Negative dependency rate indicates a net exporter country. Positive values over 100% indicate stocks build-up during the reference year.
In 2005, the EU-27 energy dependency rate for natural gas was 57.7%, an increase of 14.1 points compared with 1995. While the primary production of EU-27 natural gas remained stable, the Gross Inland Consumption increased by one third compared to 1995. This increase is compensated by the 77% increase of imports. The top 3 import countries (Germany, Italy and France) increased their imports by 53% compared with 1995. In addition, Spanish market with 8.3 Mtoe net natural gas imports in 1995 grew intensely by 15% average annual rate to 34 Mtoe holding a 12% share of EU total imports in 2005.
Apart from the two net exporters mentioned above, the UK, Romania and Poland, the remaining Member States have an energy dependency rate for natural gas bigger than 80%.

Primary energy commodities may be divided between fuels of fossil origin, nuclear energy and renewable energy commodities. Fossil fuels are taken from natural resources, which were formed from biomass in the geological past. The definition of renewable energy sources (RES) includes energy generated from solar, wind, biomass (wood, municipal wastes, biofuels and biogas), geothermal, hydropower, and ocean resources. EU-27 primary energy production registered a steadily decreasing trend from 1995 to 2005, resulting to a 5.3% decrease over the whole period. Year by year, the fuel mixture of primary energy production changed in favour of nuclear energy and renewable energy sources. While the share into the total remained almost stable for Lignite, Natural Gas and Oil, the Hard Coal share decreased by 7%. In 2005, CO2 free sources (renewable energy sources and nuclear energy) had a share of 42% while the fossil fuels represented the remaining 58% of total primary production of energy.

EU-27 gross inland consumption grew by 9.8% (161 Mtoe) over the 1995-2005 period. Natural gas recorded the highest absolute increase from 333Mtoe in 1995 to 445Mtoe in 2005, while nuclear energy grew by 15% to 257Mtoe. The increase of renewables was 41% over the 19952005 period yet, the share of renewables into the total remains still small (7% in 2005). On the other hand, gross inland consumption of solid fuels dropped by 12% and at the same time gross inland consumption of oil grew by only 4%, despite the fact that oil is strongly linked with the transport sector where significant growth is observed. Even with increasing energy efficiency and development of renewable energy, oil and gas will remain the most important fuels for the energy and transport sectors. As a consequence, the external dependence and the security of supply for these fuels will continue to be of great importance for the economic activities.

EU-27 imports of natural gas rose by 29% from 2000 to 2005. However imports from Russia rose by 9%, from Norway by 33% and from Algeria by 2.4% forming altogether 83% of total imports. Due to diversification efforts, imports from other countries increased more than four times, representing 17% of total imports in 2005. On the contrary, consolidation has been exhibited in crude oil imports, which grew by 7% over the last five years. In 2005, 32% of the imported crude oil came from Russia, up from 22% in 2000, and 17% from Norway, down from 21%. Saudi Arabia and Libya contributed significantly with 10% and 9% respectively while Iran maintained its spot as a Top-5 country of origin, with a 6% share. Hard Coal imports confirm Russia as a first-rate energy supplier to the EU. Although South Africa, with a share of 26% of the total hard coal supplied to the EU-27 in 2005, remains the main supplier, Russia has tripled its exports to EU over the period 2000 to 2005, reaching a 24% share, up from 9% in 2000.

The decreasing trend in gross inland consumption of solid fuels, where a drop of 12% between 1995 and 2005 is observed, is not reflected in net imports of solid fuels. Actually, net imports of solid fuels have greatly increased, by over 60% during the same period. Net imports of solid fuels to the EU-27 in 2005 amounted to 196 thousand tonnes or 127 Mtoe. EU-27 total oil imports amounted to 591 thousand tonnes in 2005, 17% more than in 1995. It must be noted that finished products are only a small proportion of total oil imports which fluctuated between 2 to 5%. However, although only Denmark and UK are net oil exporters, many countries are net oil products exporters. Germany, Italy, France and Spain, the Top Four net oil importers in 1995 that formed 72% of total net imports, decreased their imports by 3.0%, dropping their contribution to total imports to 63%.

Natural gas net imports continue to exhibit a quite steady average annual increase of 6 %, having risen by 77% since 1995. Of the three traditional North Sea producers, (DK, NL, UK), the United Kingdom has recently become a net importer and the Netherlands have reduced their annual exports while Denmark on the other hand has expanded their net exports more than 3 times between 1995 and 2005. Germany, France and Italy remain the largest importers of EU-27; nevertheless, their total net imports share dropped from 75 to 65% within the period 1995-2005 despite substantial growth in net imports, as in the same period, other countries have expanded their consumption.

Data Source: Eurostat Note: Top 5 EU-27 Exporters and Importers are drawn according to average activity levels of the last three years: Top 5 Exporting countries are France, Czech Republic, Poland, Lithuania and Bulgaria. Top 5 Importing countries are Italy, Netherlands, Finland, Hungary and Belgium.
The net electricity imports of the European Union vary during the period under consideration and there are considerable differences between Member States. This volatility must be seen in the context of trade in electricity rather than availability of local resources.

France exported about 11% of its production and the Czech Republic 18%. As a consequence, France is the largest net exporter of electricity in the EU-27. France has kept its historical top spot, followed by the Czech Republic, which became an important net electricity exporter. On the other hand the largest net importer is historically Italy that has maintained its status, followed by the Netherlands.

Observing the shares in final energy consumption, industrial consumption was higher in 1995 than the consumption of transport but as the years passed, the situation has reversed and in 2005 industrial consumption was 28% of total consumption, while transport sector consumption was 31%. The consumption of the other sectors remains the highest with a 41% share into EU-27 final energy consumption.

ENERGY 1.4.1
EU-27 final energy consumption increased by 9.7% over the period 1995-2005, a bit slower than EU- 25, which increased by 10.4%, since total consumption of the two new Member States (Romania and Bulgaria) decreased during the same period. EU-27 industrial consumption reversed to 1995 level after a slight dip around 1999. The greater part of the 27 MSs increase was due to the transport sector which grew by 21% from 1995 to 2005.

As mentioned before, the EU-27 final energy consumption in industry had in 2005 the same level as in 1995. The three big industrial sectors presented into the table, have kept almost the same share into total industrial consumption (53% in 1995 and 50% in 2005). The final energy consumption of 2005 compared with 1995 varies a lot among Member States, from 39% decrease in Bulgaria to 52% increase in Spain. Germany, the top energy consumer in the industrial sector, has reduced its consumption by 9.5%. Italy, Slovenia, Austria and Ireland are examples of significant increase (in relative terms) over the period under observation.

A clear trend observed in EU-27 industry is the significant reduction in the use of solid fuels, where a decrease of 26% during the period 1995-2005 is observed. However, a total of ten countries have increased the consumption of solid fuels, most notably being the Czech Republic and Italy. The picture is similar in the case of oil products. Increased consumption in nine countries has not been enough to counter the pan-European trend of oil replacement; hence EU-27 industrial consumption has decreased by 13% over the same period. An opposite trend is observed in the case of Natural Gas and Electricity where the majority of EU Member States increased their industrial consumption.

The ten years between 1995 and 2005 have marked a 21% increase in consumption in transport, which is mainly driven by consumption for road transport, which has a predominant share (82%) of total transport consumption. The consumption for air transport exhibited the most important relative growth, increasing by 46% to a share of 14% of total transport consumption in 2005. The two new Member States, Bulgaria and Romania, exhibit substantial growth of road transport consumption between 1995 and 2005, well above the EU-27 average. However, the highest increase in energy consumption for transport was registered in the Czech Republic, Ireland and Luxembourg.

Reacting to energy market and technological changes, the fuel mix of the transport sector has adapted. Despite a 19% increase in energy consumption by road transport between 1995 and 2005, gasoline consumption has dropped by 15% to a share of 32% in the fuel mix used in transport. On the other hand, diesel oil has for the first time exceeded the 50% share of total transport consumption, following a 50% increase between 1995 and 2005. It can be noted that high increase of energy consumption for the Czech Republic, Luxembourg and Ireland is mainly due to the very high increase of diesel oil consumption. Furthermore, all of the five largest transport fuels consumers (Germany, UK, France, Italy and Spain) exhibit important decrease in gasoline consumption in most cases in favour of diesel oil.

The 27 Member States installed capacity of electricity generation plants rose by 17% the last decade. Thermal power plants continue to provide the majority of capacity, with a share of 58% in 2005. In addition, their growth rate was similar to that of total installed capacity. In 2005, on EU-27 level, solid fuels input to thermal power plants was 54% of total input followed by input of natural gas with a 29% share. Nuclear and Hydro capacity, on the other hand, both grew by only 5% and so their shares were in 2005 almost 2 percentage units less than in 1995, at approximately 18.5%. However, it is important to note that in Germany, Lithuania, UK, Bulgaria and Sweden more than 7GW of nuclear capacity has been decommissioned since 1995 i.e. more than 5% of the 2005 nuclear capacity.

EU-27 total electricity generation increased by 565 TWh or 21% over the period under consideration. Electricity generation of Thermal and Nuclear plants registered higher increase than the one of their capacity. This is especially true for nuclear electricity generation, which increased by 13%, while the nuclear capacity increased by 5%. Hydro electricity generation in 2005 was by 6% down compared with the 1995 figure. Electricity generation of the other renewable energy technologies was in 2005 almost 5 times more than in 1995 but still their share to the total electricity generation was low (~5%).

The efficiency of thermal power stations is calculated as the ratio between the output of electricity and heat from electricity and CHP power plants and the input of fuels to these plants. The EU-27 average efficiency of thermal power stations has increased to 46.9% in 2005 up from 45.2% in 1995. Between 1995 and 2005, decrease in efficiency is observed in France, Romania, Czech Republic and Germany while Luxembourg, Latvia, Denmark, Finland and Hungary demonstrated a significant increase during the same period. In any case, it must be noted that average thermal efficiency at country level exhibit significant fluctuations, part of which due to the operation schedule of thermal power stations. The efficiency increase observed in the previous years continued in 2005 due to technological advances (cogeneration and combined cycle power plants) and investment, following the decommissioning of outdated power plants.

EU-27 total RES capacity increased by almost 40% during the last decade mainly due to the development of Wind and Biomass technologies. Out of the 55MW total growth, 36MW is attributed to wind energy capacity while the combined capacity growth of wood, biogas and MSW was 10MW. However, Hydro power remains the largest sector, with a 70% share in 2005 followed by wind energy with a 20% share. In 2005, Germany further increased its lead in photovoltaic capacity, reaching 1 508MW and 89% of EU-27 total photovoltaic capacity. Germany and Spain lead the wind sector, with 69% of the total EU-27 wind capacity. Finland and Sweden, on the other hand, have 44% of the wood burning power plants. Italy with a 98% share of geothermal capacity is almost the sole player in the sector, which is represented also by Portugal.

In 2005, EU-27 electricity generation from renewable energy sources was 465TWh and the contribution of renewables to total electricity consumption was 14.0%. During the period 1995-2005 total RES electricity increase was 106 TWh with 30% increase during the period, particularly exhibited since 2000 mostly due to the wind electricity increase (56TWh). It should be noted that hydroelectricity generation covers around 70% of the total RES generation. Hence, due to the large share of hydroelectric power together with the annual variation in precipitation and also the role of hydro plants in covering peak demands, electricity production from renewables and consequently their share in total electricity consumption fluctuate from year to year.

Over the period 1995-2005, the EU-27 gross inland consumption per capita increased by 6.9%, a bit slower than that of the EU-25, which increased by 7.5%. The EU-27 average was 3.69 toe per capita in 2005 and fourteen Member States had figures within the range of 25% of that average. Outside this range, variation can be quite wide, extending from Luxembourg and Finland (2.8 and 1.8 times the EU 27 average) to Latvia and Romania, with the latter having GIC per capita half of the EU 27 average. Noteworthy is that the per capita consumption of Households is a very limited share of GIC per capita. In the case of EU-27, Households consumption per capita is only 0.63 toe out of total gross consumption of 3.69 toe per capita. However it must be noted that Households consumption doesnt include consumption of transport fuel by Households.

Households and services are responsible for more than half of final electricity consumption during the period 1995-2005 starting with a 51.6% share in 1995 and reaching 54.4% in 2005. On average, EU-27 final electricity consumption per capita was 5 614 kWh in 2005 almost 24% higher than in 1995. Spain, Portugal and Cyprus experienced more than 50% total period increase reaching or even surpassing the EU 27 average. However, Sweden, Finland and Luxembourg have the highest values more than double the EU-27 average.

Crude oil prices behave much as any other commodity with wide price swings in times of shortage or oversupply. The crude oil price cycle may extend over several years responding to changes in demand as well as in supply. For almost 10 years, between 1987 and 1996 crude oil prices were within the range 15-20 USD per barrel, only in 1990, when Iraq invaded to Kuwait, price of crude oil spiked at almost 35USD per barrel, soon however returned at 15 $/bbl. In 1996 price of Brent was 20.6 $/bbl with a decreasing trend which ended by the end of 1998. Afterwards, price of Brent started its increasing trend reaching 65 $/bbl on average in 2006. At 2005 constant and exchange rate adjusted prices, price of Brent recorded a huge increase of more than 160% during the last decade, starting from 19 /bbl in 1996 to reach the average 2006 price of 51 /bbl.

Unlike the global crude oil market, which is highly sensitive to geopolitics, natural gas is a continental market and prices are affected primarily by supply and demand fundamentals thus, natural gas prices fluctuate less than oil prices on daily or even monthly level. However, the trend of annual average natural gas prices is similar to that of oil prices the last decade. After having been rather stable in the 90s, average import prices for natural gas and LNG recorded high increase since 1999 which led prices of 2006 to almost three times higher than the average level of the previous decade. At 2005 constant prices, natural gas prices rose by 225% from 1996 to 2006 while the rose of LNG prices in the same period was quite lower, 190%. Noteworthy is that LNG import prices were higher than natural gas prices until 2002 when the situation change so that in 2006 LNG import prices appear with a discount of 12%.

Unleaded Gasoline
Automotive Diesel
In 2006, like crude oil, both unleaded gasoline and automotive diesel recorded all time high prices at 1.20 /lt and 1.06 /lt respectively. At 2005 constant prices and on EU-15 average, the retail (tax inclusive) price of diesel increased by 41% during the period 1996-2006 while average price of unleaded gasoline rose by 26%. However, retail prices of both unleaded gasoline and automotive diesel exhibit significant lower increase than crude oil prices mainly due to the fact that excise tax and other taxes on gasoline and diesel increased by less than 25% in most Member States.
75
ENERGY 1.8.5
Of all the Member States, unleaded gasoline costs more in the Netherlands, followed closely by UK, while the lowest price can be found in Estonia and Lithuania where diesel is also the least expensive within the EU-25 countries. Diesel is most expensive in the United Kingdom while in the Netherlands and Belgium there is a discount of almost 25% compared to unleaded gasoline.

Between 1999 and 2004, the total length of the railway network decreased by 3.9% on EU-27 level as is reflected on the network density but since this decrease is not reflected in the transport performance one can draw the conclusion that the utilisation rate is increasing. The network density and the utilisation rate depend, among other things, on the topographic characteristics of the individual countries and their population densities. In general, rail network density seems to be low in the periphery of the European Union and high in the centre. In 2004, the railway network of Germany (>35 000 km) was the longest one among the EU-27 countries, followed by the network of France (30 880 km) and Poland (20 250 km). In 2004, the Czech Republic had the highest density (122) with total railway network length of 9 602 km, followed closely by Belgium with a density of (116km/km2 surface).

It is important to realise that a length-per-area indicator cannot be used per se to compare the level of infrastructure development between different countries or regions. Population density and other factors must also be considered in such a comparison.

The density of the motorway network in the EU-25 is about 14 km per 1 000 km2. The highest density is to be found in the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg, and, at quite a distance, in Germany.

Inland waterways density in the EU-27 was practically constant over the period 1999-2004 but the network is very unbalanced across the EU-27 with some countries completely lacking inland waterways and, on the other hand, countries such as the Netherlands and Belgium with a very extensive waterway system. This leads to the exceptionally high density of 122 km/1000km2 for the Netherlands, compared to the average within the EU-27 of 9 km/1000km2. In terms of inland waterways length, Finland was in first place with a network of 7 884 km in 2004 consisting of mainly lakes, followed by Germany with 6 636 km; France was third with a network of 5 372 km.

In 2005 at the EU-27 level, there were 481 ports, each handling more than 1 million tonnes of freight or more than 200 000 passengers per year. This threshold on handling is the reason the number of main sea ports changes from year to year and not a real rapid change in infrastructure. The largest number of ports is to be found in Greece, Italy, Denmark and in the United Kingdom.

The number of passenger cars per 1000 inhabitants has almost continuously increased from 1999 to 2004 in every EU-27 country. Therefore, a total increase of 9% is observed over these years, from 412 in 1999 to 449 in 2004 for a total of 221 million cars in the EU-27 by 2004. The most significant increase in the order of 30% to 36% was recorded in countries with low motorization rates in the past, namely Bulgaria, Greece, Latvia and Poland.

Note: There are still some problems of definitions applied differently, mainly on the distinction between a lorry and a passenger car (i.e. vans, pick-ups etc.). Another problematic area is if the countries include only brand new vehicles in the first registrations or if they also include imported used vehicles. Therefore one should be cautious when interpreting the figures.
In 2004 the average renewal rate in the EU-27 was approximately 7%, while the highest rate of 16.1% was reported by Luxembourg. It is notable that the renewal rate has been decreasing in recent years in most of the Member States and in the EU-27 as a whole. More specifically, the renewal rate dropped by 16% from 1999 to 2004 at the EU-27 level.

Portugal most likely still had in 2004 the highest number of lorries and road tractors (185 per 1000 inhabitants in 2003) among the EU-27 countries, with Cyprus coming second (155 per 1000 inhabitants) and Malta third at a distance (110 per 1000 inhabitants). These high figures are partly explained by the fact that there is little or no rail network in these countries or even waterways networks, so most of the inland transport of goods is done by road.
95
TRANSPORT 2.2.3
Like passenger cars, an increase is monitored in the motorization rate of lorries and road tractors from 1999 to 2004 and the countries having high increase in passenger car motorization do not necessarily have also high increases in the motorization of these vehicles.

In 2003, Luxembourg had the highest renewal rate of 16.6%, followed by Ireland, the United Kingdom, Hungary and Belgium, all of them with a renewal rate of more than 10%. It can be noted though, that the above countries with the exception of Hungary, had motorization rates very close to the EU-25 average. The renewal rates of the countries with high ratio of lorries and road tractors per 1000 inhabitants were rather low: 3.7% for Portugal, 4.2% for Cyprus and 4.1% for Malta.

The average EU-27 freight transport, in terms of tonne-kilometres, grew by 15% in the period 2000-2005. The increase between 2003 and 2004 is 8%, partially attributed to the change in the methodology of road and rail freight transport surveys. It must be noted that due to the change in the methodology of freight transport surveys many breaks in series resulted in the table on the left hand page.

In 2005, 73% of the EU-27 freight inland transport (in tonne-km) was done by road. In most of the countries, road transport was the dominant mode with the exception of Estonia and Latvia where rail transport performance was double or more the road transport performance. For most of the countries, there was an increase in the share of road freight transport in 2005 when compared to 2000, with some exceptions, most notably Belgium, followed by the United Kingdom, Denmark, Estonia and Greece. Rail freight transport had a share of 18% at the EU-27 level in 2000 which dropped to 17% in 2005. There was also a full percentage point decrease in the combined shares of inland waterways and pipelines: from 11.8% in 2000 to 10.8% in 2005.

The tonnage of goods transported by rail in the 27Member States in 2004 was close to 1 700 million tonnes, an increase of 13% over 2003, while in 2005 the same practically tonnage was transported. The growth from 2003 to 2004 and 2005 is mainly attributed to the significant increase in some countries such as Poland that recorded an impressive 75%, the United Kingdom with 33% and to a lesser extent, Germany and Austria.

The picture of the EU-27 Member States is diverse: the indicator for international passengers per thousand inhabitants varies considerably for 2005. Figures below 500 appear for Romania, Poland, Slovakia and Lithuania while, on the other hand, Ireland, Malta and Cyprus have values higher than 5 000. The United Kingdom with 204 million passengers led the international air transport in 2005 followed by Germany (146 million) and Spain (144 million).
119
TRANSPORT 2.4.3
Note: In principle, data on air passengers used for this indicator, are based on On Flight Origin/Destination information rather than Flight Stage. Flight Stage information is used when no On Flight Origin/Destination data were available and in these cases direct transit passengers are included. Air passenger figures exclude double counting of national passenger transport, i.e. counting the same passengers twice, once reported by the origin airport as departures and once by the partner airport as arrivals. Similarly, the aggregated figures for the EU exclude the double counting effect on intra-EU traffic. For example, a person flying from Paris to London will be counted in France as a departure passenger and in the United Kingdom as an arrival passenger but only once at EU level.

Note: Caution should be observed when interpreting the figures since they take into account passengers having made national, international intra-EU and extra-EU journeys. Thus passengers in national and international intra-EU traffic are double counted, once at embarkation and once at disembarkation.
Sea transport of passengers per thousand inhabitants was reduced by an approximate 5% in the EU-27 in the last reporting year, with Greece responsible for the greatest part of this reduction. Denmark is in the first position with 8.8 passengers per capita followed closely by Greece with 7.8 passengers per capita. Italy ranks several places below, although approximately 80 million passengers were embarked and disembarked at Italian ports. It is notable that in Greece and Italy, two of the three countries with large passenger movement figures, important ferry connections are included, which cover short national journeys as well.

In 2004 and 2005 the slightly decreasing trend in the number of persons killed in road accidents per inhabitants has continued. Only in Bulgaria, Latvia, Lithuania and Romania, there was no decrease in 2005 although these countries have relatively low motorization rates. Cyprus has rebounded from the peak observed in 2004. In addition to these countries, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland had in 2005 a high (more than 130) number of deaths per million inhabitants. In 2005, there were about 47 thousand deaths in road accidents for EU-27, 2 thousand less than 2004.

Ozone is a colourless gas with an acrid odour, and a powerful oxidant. Up in the stratosphere (at a height of 20 to 30 km) it absorbs the bulk of harmful ultra-violet radiation from the sun (at wavelengths between 240 and 320 nm) which can cause skin cancer and damage vegetation. Down in the troposphere (below a height of 10 km) however, ozone is a health and environmental hazard and a greenhouse gas. Tropospheric ozone is produced by photochemical reactions in the troposphere via its precursors: NOx, NMVOC, CO, CH4. Emissions of these pollutants are covered by the 1999 Gothenburg Protocol under the United Nations Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution, and by the EU national emission ceilings directive (NEC Directive 2001/81/EC). For the new Member States the targets are specified in the 2003 Treaty of Accession. Total ozone precursor emissions decreased in the EU-27 by 27.2% between 1995 and 2005. The highest contribution still comes from the transport sector.

In 2005 in the EU-27, 75.8% of the photochemical ozone is connected with energy use and only 24.2% with non-energy use. Motor vehicles and combustion sources are the major contributor of nitrogen oxides and non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOC). The sector "Solvent and other product use" is another major source for NMVOC emissions. On a European scale roughly a quarter of the total anthropogenic NMVOC emission are from road transport and more than one third from solvents. Most solvents are part of a final product, e.g. paint, and sooner or later evaporate. A small fraction of the solvents ends up in waste or as emission to water and may finally also contribute to air pollution by evaporation from these compartments.

In 2005, emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOC) together were responsible for about 86.2% of the tropospheric ozone emissions in the EU-27. Between 1995 and 2005, the reduction for NOx is 22.7% and is mainly due to the expansion in the use of low NOx combustion technology and catalysts for cars. The 28.9% reduction of NMVOCs is also attributed to the use of catalysts for cars and a reduction in fugitive emissions from fuel handling processes (e.g. recovering fuel gases in tanking operations). However, substantial reductions of both NMVOCs and NOx are still required to achieve 2010 targets of the EU national emissions ceilings directive (NEC Directive 2001/81/EC). Carbon monoxide (CO) and methane (CH4) are of minor importance for the formation of ground-level ozone.

Particulate Matter with diameters less than 10 micrometers PM10 can be carried deep into the lungs where it causes inflammation and other problems. It is estimated that only its finer fraction PM2.5 shortens the statistical life expectancy in EU by more than 8 months and even over 2 years in the most polluted areas [source Clean Air for Europe programme]. Primary PM10 refers to particulate matter emitted directly into the atmosphere. PM10 precursors considered in this publication are sulphur dioxide (SO2), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and ammonia (NH3) that are partly transformed into particles by chemical reactions in the atmosphere (secondary PM10). There are no specific EU emission targets for primary PM10. However, emissions of the precursors NOx, SOx and NH3 are covered by the EU National Emission Ceilings Directive (NEC Directive 2001/81/EC) and the Gothenburg Protocol under the United Nations Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution. The total PM10 emissions in the EU-27 have decreased by 29.7% since 1995. The enlarged Union has managed to reduce its overall emissions of air pollutants and looks on track to meet the overall targets for 2010, as set in the NEC Directive, although the situation varies across individual Member States.

Energy use is the major source of total PM10 emissions, accounting for 79.8% of the total in 2005. Agriculture was an important sector too with almost 15% of the total PM10 emissions in 2005. Ammonia emissions from animal husbandry and use of nitrogen fertilisers are important PM10 precursors.

The substantial decrease in PM10 emissions is mainly due to reduction of sulphur dioxide (SO2) emissions following a switch from high sulphur fuels to natural gas, use of low sulphur coal and introduction of flue gas desulphurisation in power plants. Additionally, there have been significant reductions in emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from road transport and energy industries. This is to a large extent due to the introduction of catalysts on new cars and the introduction of combined cycle gas turbine power generation. In 2005, 92.6% of the ammonia (NH3) emissions are from agriculture; emissions from road transport were only 1.9% of the EU-27 ammonia emission total in 2005 but there is a strong positive trend in connection with vehicles fitted with threeway catalysts. Reducing emissions of the pollutants causing PM10 emissions will also reduce the acidification of the soil.

There is scientific evidence that emission of greenhouse gases from human activities, such as the burning of coal, oil and gas, are causing an overall warming of the earths atmosphere and that climate change is the most likely result with potentially major economic and social consequences (Winning the battle against global climate change, COM(2005) 35). In 2005, the Member States with the highest per capita emissions were Luxembourg and Ireland and the Member States with the lowest per capita emissions were Latvia and Lithuania. The data for Luxembourg includes emissions from road fuel sold in Luxembourg, but consumed abroad (fuel tourism). Although overall per capita emissions in EU-15 and EU-27 have fallen since 1990, they have risen in nine countries; in Spain, Malta, Portugal, Cyprus, Greece, Austria, and Ireland, they have increased by more than one tonne between 1990 and 2005. For the same period, the largest reductions, of 4 or more tonnes, were in Estonia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Latvia, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Bulgaria.

The greenhouse gas emissions are reported under Kyoto Protocol and the EU Decision 280/2004/EC. In the first quantified emission limitation and reduction commitment period, from 2008 to 2012, the EU has agreed to an 8% reduction in its greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990. Individual targets for each of the EU-15 countries have been agreed under the EU burden sharing agreement (Council Decision 2002/358/EC). The new EU Member States and candidate countries have differing targets under the Kyoto Protocol. Overall, since the Kyoto base year, emissions in EU-15 have shown a decrease of 2.0% in 2005, determined largely by considerable emission cuts by the EUs two greatest emitters which account for about 40% of total EU-15 GHG emissions: Germany (-18.7%), which is now close to its burden-sharing target and the United Kingdom (-15.7%) which has exceeded its target. Italy and France, the third and fourth largest emitters, increased (12.1%) and decreased (-1.9%) their emissions between 1990 and 2005. Emissions in Cyprus, Malta, Spain, Portugal, Greece, and Ireland have increased by more than 20% since 1990.

From base year to 2000, significant reductions of 9.3% in EU-27 GHG emissions were achieved, mainly as a result of fuel switching, in particular due to the replacement of coal-fired power stations with more efficient and less carbon-intensive gas-fired plants, combined with an increased use of cogeneration. The decrease in emissions in Germany was partly due to structural change after reunification. In the United Kingdom the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions was partly a result of the liberalisation of the energy market and subsequent changes in the choice of fuel used in electricity production from oil and coal to gas. But between 2000 and 2005, greenhouse gas emissions from the EU-27 have increased, by 1.5%, mainly as a result of a marked increase in energy use, particularly for electricity and transport, combined with a slowdown in fuel switching to lower carbon sources in power stations.

Energy use in 2005 accounted for about 79.8% of total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Energy efficiency increased during the 1990s and therefore GHG emissions decreased over the decade. Emissions from the sector Other (energy), accounting for about 15% of the total GHG emissions, are dominated by fuel combustion from households which is more or less stable depending on weather conditions. In 2005, agriculture accounted for about 9% of EU-27 GHG emissions, with a reduction of about 8% between 1995 and 2005. This is mainly due to declining numbers of cattle and lower emissions from agricultural soils. Emissions from the transport sector increased continuously between 1995 and 2005 (+17.3%), due to high growth in both passenger and freight transport by road. The increase in carbon dioxide emissions from international aviation and navigation was even higher, but these are currently not addressed in the Kyoto Protocol.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is by far the most important greenhouse gas, accounting for about 82.5% of the global warming potential due to all EU-27 anthropogenic GHG emissions covered by the Kyoto Protocol in 2005. The main source of CO2 is the burning of fossil fuels. Agriculture is the dominant source of anthropogenic methane (CH4) emissions; the other two important sources are waste management (e.g. landfills) and fugitive emissions by the energy use (e.g. coal mining). The largest source of nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions is agriculture (fertilisers and manure use) followed by the chemical industries (adipic and nitric acid production). For both CH4 and N2O, emissions have decreased between 1995 and 2005 (-22.5% and-12% respectively). Fluorinated gases [F-gases: hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6)] increased by 2.7% between 1995 and 2005. The production of PFCs has halved during this period and the SF6 emission has also decreased significantly. However, HFC-emissions have increased dramatically by 38.9% between 1995 and 2005, mainly as the result of the expanding use of HFCs as a substitute for ozonedepleting substances that were gradually phased out in the 1990s.

The total amount of municipal waste generated is growing. The upward trend has slowed down slightly since 2000 and indeed shows signs of stabilising, though at high levels. Over the period 1995 to 2005 both the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the generation of municipal waste grew by about 20 %; there is no evidence of decoupling of these trends. For 2003 some countries reported smaller amounts of (garden) waste due to the warm and dry summer. The amount of municipal waste generated per person is generally higher in the old Member States (EU-15) than in the new Member States although Cyprus and Malta do have a relatively high production of waste. Ireland has the highest generation of municipal waste in the European Union. Municipal waste consists of waste generated by households and waste collected within the municipal waste collection scheme from businesses and institutions. The inclusion of businesses and institutions depends on individual countries' waste management procedures.

The amount of waste landfilled depends on the national policy on waste management; that is, it depends on the importance given to waste avoidance, recycling and incineration. For many countries landfill remains the major treatment method, e.g. for more than 80 % in Lithuania, Malta, Cyprus, Bulgaria, Greece and Romania. In such countries the amount of municipal waste going to landfill will be in parallel with the rise in municipal waste generated. On the other hand there has been a sharp decline in the amount of waste landfilled in some other Member States. In the Netherlands, Denmark and Belgium less than 10 % of municipal waste go to landfill. In recent years landfilling was also significantly reduced in Sweden, Germany, Italy, Austria and Estonia. The result of these mixed developments among the Member States is a steady decline in landfill for the EU as a total. Although landfill is still the most important way to dispose of municipal waste, nowadays less than half of the municipal waste generated is disposed of by deposit/land treatment.

The levels of municipal waste incinerated vary over the Member States, depending on the number and location of suitable incinerators and on national waste management policies. Denmark and Luxembourg have a high level of waste incineration. Countries that drastically reduced landfilling, as Germany and Sweden, have increased their incineration capacity. The other alternative to landfill is recycling; both Denmark and the Netherlands have banned landfilling, but while Denmark mainly uses incineration, the Netherlands has a more mixed strategy. Belgium is the only country having achieved a significant reduction of waste going to landfill without increasing incineration. Although more and more countries use incineration in their waste management its contribution is still small in some of them. The establishment of new waste incinerators takes a lot of time and resources. For Eight Member States the use of incineration for the treatment of municipal waste is insignificant. The data include both incinerators with and incinerators without energy recovery.

Incineration of municipal solid waste with energy recovery has been developed significantly since 1995. In 2005, the share of municipal solid waste to the primary production of biomass and wastes was over 14% from about 10% in 1995. It can be noted that in 2005 practically half of the energy production from waste incineration took place in France, the Netherlands and Germany. Noteworthy is also the increase of energy recovery from incineration of municipal solid waste in Italy and Finland, while UK and Spain have reduced their growth rates. In Italy particularly, the share was limited in 1995 and climbed to 11% in 2005.

Around 2 700 million tonnes of waste were generated in EU-27 in 2004 according to the first reporting under the Waste Statistics Regulation. Germany, France, Romania and the United Kingdom reported the highest amounts of waste generated with more than 300 million tonnes in each country. The ratio of hazardous waste to non hazardous waste is fairly scattered across the EU 27 Member States. The aggregated EU-27 share of hazardous waste is calculated as 2.7% of the total waste, however, in Estonia more than a third of the generated waste is classified as hazardous, with Belgium following with 9.8%. The lowest share of hazardous waste is reported by Latvia (1.7%). After the first analysis of the data received in 2006 the classification criteria for the hazardousness of waste and the allocation of waste streams to statistical waste categories are being further clarified in order to prepare for the second reporting in 2008.

Countries exhibit a wide variety of policies for the treatment of waste. Data from the first reporting under the Waste Statistics Regulation shows that new EU Member States still rely very much on disposal of waste by deposit/land treatment. As also reported for the sub-category municipal waste, the lowest rates with less than 20% of total waste going to landfill are reported by Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands and Austria. Recovery, including energy recovery from incineration, has gained a more important role in a majority of Member States and accounts for increasing shares of the treatment of total waste.

The European Union has set targets for the recycling of packaging waste. (Recycling does not include energy recovery by the use of waste as a fuel). In 2001, 25% of all packaging put on the market had to be recycled, and all the then 15 EU Member States met the objective. For 2008 the recycling target for old Member States is set to 55%, for new Member States special transition periods apply. In 2005 seven countries under the 2008 target already met the objective, and many others are coming closer. Highest recycling rates are reported by Belgium, followed by Germany and Austria. However, the figures also suggest that some countries with a high recycling rate have problems to further increase or maintain this high level.

Renewable fresh water resources for any given country are made up of two components: "external inflow", which is the inflow of water from neighbouring territories, be it at the surface (river flow) or subsurface (groundwater flow), and the "internal flow", which is the precipitation (all forms) minus the evaporation from surfaces and the evapotranspiration by plants. The amounts available per capita are a combined effect of a country's climate, its hydrology, its geography, and its population density. The absolute values of this indicator vary among countries over more than one order of magnitude, with the relative share of both constituents being extremely different. The external inflow per capita is high for relatively small countries with large rivers passing through the territory, like for Austria, Slovakia and Hungary in the Danube basin, the Netherlands at mouth of the river Rhine, Portugal with major river inflow from Spain, Latvia with the Daugava or Slovenia with alpine rivers flowing in. In contrast, large amounts of precipitation-fed resources (internal flow) are available in sparsely populated humid countries such as Finland, Sweden and Estonia or Alpine countries such as Slovenia and Austria. At the other end of the scale, some countries are relatively short in internal water resources due to their dense population (e.g. Belgium, Netherlands). The Southern European island states (Malta, Cyprus) face an especially difficult situation due to their semi-arid climate without any river inflow.

The per-capita-abstraction of fresh groundwater is relatively uniform throughout Europe, with the exception of a few Mediterranean countries (Portugal, Greece, and Cyprus) where abstraction is higher, mainly due to the climate-triggered demand. The picture is completely different for surface water abstraction, which differs widely between countries, even neighbouring countries like Latvia and Lithuania. This is due to the use of surface water for cooling purposes in thermal power stations (generation of electricity, like in Belgium) or for agriculture, as in Spain. Depending on the structure of a country's energy supply, water for cooling purposes can be the dominant driving force for surface water abstraction. The table of total fresh water abstraction (page 164) shows that over the fifteen years covered by the table, there is a clear decrease in total abstraction in new Member States and in Association countries where structural changes in economic sectors and in particular in manufacturing industries have led to reducing the production and using water in a more efficient way. In industrialized countries that experienced fewer structural changes (e.g. Sweden, Switzerland), total abstraction remained relatively stable.

The treatment level of the wastewater before discharge and the sensitivity of the receiving waters affect the impact it has on the aquatic system. According to the Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive, urban wastewater in sensitive areas should receive tertiary treatment, whereas urban waste water in less sensitive areas should receive at least secondary treatment. Although not the whole of EU-27 territories is covered by urban wastewater collection systems, an average of around 70% of the wastewater receives at least secondary treatment. Germany, Spain and the Netherlands apply at least secondary treatment to the wastewater for more than 90% of their population. Moreover, in Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, Finland and Sweden tertiary treatment is provided for the wastewater of more than 80% of their population. On the other hand, most water treatment is of only primary level in Ireland, Greece and Romania, as illustrated in the above graph.

The statistics on pesticides collected by Eurostat relate to plant protection products (PPP), which are mainly used in agriculture. Sales statistics provided by the Member States on a voluntary basis give only a broad picture of PPP use in the Member States. A proper assessment of the risk associated with PPP can only be done with reliable use data. Thanks to a grant to the European Crop Protection Association detailed estimates of PPP use by country, crop, and category are now available for EU-15 from 1992 to 2003 and for EU-25 from 2000 to 2003. Sales and estimated use data show similar trends with a constant difference of nearly 30% between both sets of data. The huge impact of fungicides -and among them of sulphur used to protect vineson the overall PPP consumption is evident. A detailed analysis confirms that beside the country size some crops have a clear influence on the total amount of PPP used: grapes for fungicides, cereals for herbicides and olives, citrus or fruit trees for insecticides. To allow a more in-depth risk analysis, in the context of its Thematic Strategy on the Sustainable Use of Pesticides, the Commission is proposing to adopt a Regulation aiming at regular collection of comparable PPP use data.

Definition: This indicator presents the trend in aggregated production volumes of toxic chemicals, broken down into five toxicity classes. The toxicity classes, beginning with the most dangerous, are: Carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic (CMR-chemicals); Chronic toxic chemicals; Very toxic chemicals; Toxic chemicals and chemicals classified as harmful. There are some 30 000 man-made chemicals currently in use in the EU, which are produced or imported in quantities over 1 tonne per year. Since June 2007 the new EU chemicals policy, known as REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and restriction of CHemicals) is in force: Basic information on toxicological properties of chemicals, their use patterns and quantities on the market will become available in the coming years. An important objective of REACH is to reduce risks by substitution of hazardous by less hazardous substances. This indicator monitors progress in shifting production from the most toxic chemicals to less toxic classes. (The indicator does not provide information on the risk from the use of chemicals: Production and consumption are not synonymous with exposure, as some chemicals are handled in closed systems, or as intermediates in controlled supply chains.) Between 1995 and 2005 the total production of chemicals has grown by 31% (EU-15). The production of chemicals classified as toxic increased by 23%, with a 25% growth for CMR chemicals. Over the 10 years statistics highlight the steady growth of chemicals production volume, and no decoupling from the growth of GDP can be observed. The coming years will show if the lower figures for 2006 will be the initiation of a downward trend. The high share of the most toxic categories of chemicals, the CMR chemicals, represents a worrying trend if continued.

The EU policy on nature conservation is mainly based on the two Directives 92/43/EEC on the conservation of natural habitats and of wild fauna and flora and 79/409/EEC on the conservation of wild birds, which include the setting up of a coherent European ecological network of sites under the title Natura 2000. This indicator is based on territories that countries propose should be designated for the protection of natural and semi-natural habitats, wild fauna and flora according to the Habitat Directive. The assumption for this indicator is that the establishment of this network will enable the hosted natural habitats and species of Community importance to be maintained or restored at a favourable conservation status in their natural range and therefore contribute to halting the loss of biodiversity in the European Community by 2010. The indicator shows the progress in designating sites under the Habitats Directive; it does not show the conservation status of habitats and species within the sites yet and only focus on the nationally designated areas proposed under the Habitat Directive. The site proposal phase, now close to finalisation, will be concluded with the adoption of lists of sites of community interest for all bio-geographical regions. Until then, updates of information are provided regularly by Member States and consolidated twice a year by the European Environment Agency (European Topic Centre for Biological Diversity) and published by DG Environment as Natura 2000 Barometer (see http://ec.europa.eu/environment/nature/natura2000/barometer/index_en.htm).

Following a strong reduction in the populations of common birds during the 90s, the past years have seen a stabilizing trend. Although at first declining, Farmland Species Population is rebounding to levels close to the 2000 ones, while at the same time, Forest Species Population inched towards early 90s levels when declining trends reappeared. The combined population has varied within 5% during the past ten years.

Environmental taxes are a market-based instrument that aims to integrate the cost of adverse environmental impacts into prices. Through them, producers and consumers are given an incentive to assess the environmental consequences of their behaviour in their production and consumption decisions and thus encouraged to limit environmental pressures and use natural resources responsibly. However, environmental interests also have to be weighed against other concerns, such as competitiveness, regional policy and employment. Levels of environmental tax are therefore adjusted to reflect these other concerns. The concept of environmental taxes includes four categories; energy, transport, pollution and resource taxes. In 2004, energy taxes accounted for roughly 75% of total environmental taxes in both EU-15 and EU-25. The second largest contributor to total environmental taxes in the EU comes from transport taxes. They include mainly taxes on the ownership of vehicles, such as tax on vehicle registration, road tax and tax on imports of vehicles. Only Malta has higher tax on transport than on energy, but the share is also high in Cyprus and in Ireland.

ENVIRONMENT 3.7.2
In 2004 the members of EU-25 collected revenues from environmental taxes of 280 billion Euro (266 billion Euro in EU-15 Member States). This is about 2.7% of GDP within both EU-25 and EU-15. The percentage of energy taxes was 2.0% of GDP. Between 1996 and 2004 14 countries have increased the revenues from energy taxes in relation to GDP. Taxes on energy consist of taxes on fuel, mineral products and production of electricity. With the exception of Malta and Cyprus the increase of energy taxes took place in countries located in the north of Europe such as in Estonia, Denmark, and in Germany. In 2004, Luxembourg had the highest share of energy tax in GDP with 3.0%, up from 2.8% in 1996, followed by Slovenia, at 2.7% of GDP, and Denmark at 2.5%.

Greenhouse gas [GHG, which includes carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O), and methane (CH4)] emissions and environmental pressure can be analysed by economic activity given by NACE sections. NACE is the statistical classification of economic activities in the European Community. In 2003, section E (Electricity, gas and water supply) represented 31% of GHG emitted by economic activities. Together with section D (Manufacturing), these economic activities accounted for 59% of GHG emissions. The environmental pressure due to GHG emissions from economic activities can be measured by the ratio between the GHG emissions and the Gross Value Added (GVA). It was considerably higher for section E than for all other sections: 6 676 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per million Euro of GVA, followed by sections A-B (Agriculture, hunting and forestry, and Fishing) with 3 013 tonnes, section C (Mining and quarrying) with 1 193 tonnes, section I (Transport, storage and communication) with 645 tonnes and section D with 637 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per million Euro of GVA.

The environmental pressure due to methane (CH4) is more important in sections A and C with total methane emissions being respectively 1 010 and 347 tonnes of CO2 equivalent per million Euro of GVA; for nitrous oxide (N2O), the environmental pressure concerns almost exclusively the Agriculture sector. On the other hand, the economic performance in relation to the environmental pressure due to GHG emissions is quite favourable in sections F to N (excluding section I). In all these NACE sections, the environmental pressure is relatively small and the GVA is relatively high.

ENVIRONMENT 3.7.3
Acidifying substances:
The acidifying substances considered in this publication are sulphur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) and ammonia (NH3). Emissions of these gases are associated with the formation of acid rain.
Acid Equivalent:
In the concept of Acid Equivalents weighting factors are used to aggregate the emissions of acidifying substances and present a single figure for this in kilo tonnes acid equivalents. They represent an oversimplified approach to a very complex process of chemical interactivity. Acid equivalents are estimated as follows: sulphur dioxide * 1/32; nitrogen oxide * 1/46 and ammonia * 1/17.
Carcinogenic Substance:
A carcinogenic substance is a chemical which is capable of causing cancer. A cancer is a malignant tumour which can spread to other organs of the body. For the purpose of classification and labelling, and having regard to the current state of knowledge, such substances are divided into three categories: Category 1: Substances known to be carcinogenic to man. There is sufficient evidence to establish a causal association between human exposure to a substance and the development of cancer. Category 2: Substances which should be regarded as if they are carcinogenic to man. There is sufficient evidence to provide a strong presumption that human exposure to a substance may result in the development of cancer, generally on the basis of: - appropriate long-term animal studies, - other relevant information. Category 3: Substances which cause concern for man owing to possible carcinogenic effects but in respect of which the available information is not adequate for making a satisfactory assessment. There is some evidence from appropriate animal studies, but this is insufficient to place the substance in Category 2. For more details, see: Dangerous Substances Directive (67/548/EEC, as last amended in 2001), http://ec.europa.eu/environment/chemicals/
CHP:
See Combined Heat and Power
CO2 Equivalent:
Emissions of some substances resulting from burning of fossil fuels and other activities like industrial processes or agriculture significantly change the composition of the atmosphere and cause the anthropogenic greenhouse effect: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6). These substances have individual global warming potentials (GWP) ranging from 1 (CO2) to 23 900 (SF6). In order to aggregate
182
the emissions of the different substances and present a single figure for the climate change issue they are expressed in CO2 equivalents.
Cogeneration:
See Combined Heat and Power
CMR Chemicals:
Carcinogenic substances (C), Mutagenic substances (M) and substances that can harm Reproduction (R) are called CMR-substances. Some substances in this group can cause several of these effects. Substances assigned CMR are jointly decided upon in the EU. In the work to reach a non-toxic environment CMR-substances are given priority. The long-term goal is that they must not be used at all.
Constant Price:
The constant price of a commodity is its price considered in constant terms, taking account of inflation.
Current Price:
The current (or nominal) price of a commodity is its price considered in current terms, without taking account of inflation.
183
Energy Dependency:
Energy dependency shows the extent to which a country relies upon imports in order to meet its energy needs. It is calculated using the following formula: net imports / (gross inland consumption + bunkers).
Energy Intensity:
Energy intensity gives an indication of the effectiveness with which energy is being used to produce added value. It is defined as the ratio of Gross Inland Consumption of energy to Gross Domestic Product.
Environmental taxes
An environmental tax is defined as a tax on an environmentally harmful tax base. The concept consists of the revenues from four types of taxes: energy-, transport-, pollution- and resource taxes. Carbon dioxide taxes are included under energy as they are often an integral part of general energy taxes. Excluded are general Value Added Tax (VAT) on environmentally harmful tax bases as well as royalty payments and other special taxes related to oil and gas extraction.

the products of combustion are returned to ambient temperature. This quantity includes the heat of condensation of any water vapour contained in the fuel and of the water vapour formed by the combustion of any hydrogen contained in the fuel.
Mutagenic Substance:
A mutagenic substance is a chemical capable of producing a mutation or a chemical which gives rise to an enhanced occurrence of mutations. A mutation is a permanent change in the genetic material of cells. Effects on whole chromosomes may involve structural or numerical changes. A
185
mutation in the germ cells in sexually reproducing organisms may be transmitted to the offspring. For more details, see: Dangerous Substances Directive (67/548/EEC, as last amended in 2001), http://ec.europa.eu/environment/chemicals/

levels of an economys productive assets and the wealth of its inhabitants at particular points in time. If environmental aspects were directly included in national accounts these would be overburdened with information. A satellite approach is therefore applied, where some conceptual freedoms exist for compiling the accounts. The satellite accounts, in this case the environmental accounts, can therefore be linked directly with relevant economic and environmental statistics and classifications and provide harmonised comparable accounts across any country applying this methodology. The NAMEA Air methodology follows the national accounts principle that all air emissions from the production processes (both mobile and stationary sources) should be allocated to the producer who creates value added with his products. NAMEA Air therefore follow the residential principle of the national accounts while the UNFCCC reporting presented in previous pages follows the territorial principle.

NMVOC equivalent:
The emissions of ozone precursors can be aggregated using their ozone forming potential in NMVOC equivalent. This represents an oversimplified approach to a very complex process of chemical interactivity. The following weighting factors are applied to estimate the emissions in NMVOC equivalents: nitrogen oxides=1.22, volatile organic compounds without methane=1, carbon monoxide=0.11, methane=0.014 (de Leeuw 2002).

PM10 equivalent:
To obtain the total particulate formation potential of air emissions, the sum of primary (direct emissions) and secondary (formation by photo-chemical reactions in the atmosphere) aerosols is calculated. The emissions are aggregated in the PM10 equivalent. The following weighting factors are used for aggregation: PM10=1, sulphur oxides=0.54, nitrogen oxides =0.88, ammonia=0.64 (de Leeuw, 2002).

between the enthalpy of the fluid produced in the production borehole and that of the fluid disposed of via the re-injection borehole. Biomass / Wastes: In the case of municipal solid wastes (MSW), wood, wood wastes and other solid wastes, production is the heat produced after combustion and corresponds to the heat content (NCV) of the fuel. In the case of anaerobic digestion of wet wastes, production is the heat content (NCV) of the biogases produced. The production includes all quantities of gas consumed in the installation for the fermentation processes, and excludes all quantities of flared gases. In the case of biofuels, the production is the heat content (NCV) of the fuel.
Reprotoxic Substance:
This category of chemicals includes substances that cause reproductive impairment in adults and developmental impairment or death in the unborn child. Reproductive impairment can include infertility, impotence, menstrual irregularities, spontaneous abortion and damage to offspring. Individuals may vary widely in their exposure and susceptibility to reproductive hazards. For more details, see: Dangerous Substances Directive (67/548/EEC, as last amended in 2001), http://ec.europa.eu/environment/chemicals/

Two main channels are used by Eurostat to collect statistical data: 1. Legal acts on transport statistics which cover detailed data collections for all the main modes of transport: Rail freight: Council Directive 80/1177/EEC of 4 December 1980 (O.J. L 350 of 23.12.1980) replaced by Regulation (EC) No 91/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2002 (rail freight, passengers, traffic and accidents) (O.J. L 14 of 21.1.2003) Road freight: Council Regulation (EC) 1172/98 of 25 May 1998 (O.J. L 163 of 6.6.1998) Inland waterways: Council Directive 80/1119/EEC of 17 November 1980 (O.J. L 339 of 15.12.1980) Maritime freight, passengers and traffic: Council Directive 95/64/EC of 8 December 1995 (O.J. L 320 of 30.12.1995) Aviation passengers, freight and traffic: Regulation (EC) No 437/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 February 2003 (O.J. L 66 of 11.3.2003) Road accidents: Council Decision 93/704/EC of 30 November 1993 (O.J. L 329 of 30.12.1993) 2. The "Common Questionnaire" of Eurostat, UNECE and ECMT, which is used to collect, on a voluntary basis, annual aggregated data covering many aspects of inland modes of transport (rail, road, inland waterways and pipelines). Other voluntary agreements cover the collection of other types of data such as regional transport indicators. The main dissemination channel used for Eurostat data is the on-line database which covers, from the early eighties, millions of transport figures from EU countries plus, to a lesser extent, statistics from EFTA, Mediterranean and Candidate countries. Some miscellaneous publications in paper and electronic formats are also available, such as the Panorama of transport and several "Statistics in Focus".
191
Natural gas
Natural gas prices are collected by Eurostat on a similar basis to electricity prices following the same regulation. Again, the prices are as of 1 January in the year shown. The EU averages are also calculated in the same way albeit using different standard consumers and different consumption measures to weight the country prices. For domestic consumers, the standard consumer used is D3 (annual consumption of 83.70 GJ i.e. 23 260 kWh) while for industrial consumers it is I3-1 (annual consumption of 41 860 GJ i.e. 11.63 GWh). More detailed information on the collection of natural gas prices can be found in Eurostats Gas Prices publication. The average EU price is calculated by taking a weighted average of the prices in individual countries. Domestic natural gas prices are weighted
192
by final energy consumption of gas in households while industrial prices are weighted by final consumption in industry. Since price data are available for 2006 and 2007 but consumption data is not, the prices for 2006 and 2007 have been weighted by 2005 consumption; this should have only a small effect on the EU average. The survey collects prices all taxes included, prices without VAT and prices all taxes excluded. The domestic prices shown here are prices all taxes included while industrial prices are shown without VAT (i.e. what industry will actually pay for the energy).
Petroleum products
The heating gas oil, residual fuel oil, unleaded gasoline and automotive diesel prices are supplied to DG TREN of the Commission by the Member States as those being the most representative price levels actually charged to consumers for the specific categories of sale listed below. This data collection is based on Council Decision 1999/280/EC and Commission Decision 1999/566/EC. The prices given are as of the first Monday after the 15 January of each year. The heating gas oil prices given are for deliveries of between 2 000 and 5 000 litres while those for residual fuel oil are for monthly deliveries of less than 2 000 tonnes or annual deliveries of less than 24 000 tonnes. Average pump prices are given for unleaded gasoline and automotive diesel fuel. The EU average prices are calculated by weighing the prices from each country by the national final energy consumption of each product. Price data for all petroleum product prices are available until 2007. The 2006 and 2007 data are weighted with 2005 consumption figures.

* The tonne of oil equivalent is a conventional standardised unit defined on the basis of a tonne of oil with a net calorific value of 41 868 kilojoules/kg. The conversion coefficients from the specific units to kgoe (kilogramme of oil equivalent) are thus computed by dividing the conversion co-efficients to the kilojoules by 41 868.
