Description:
Figure TS.6 legend: Direct emissions estimates assign emissions to the sector in which they arise (scope 1 reporting). Indirect emissions – as used here - refer to the reallocation of emissions from electricity and heat to the sector of final use (scope 2 reporting). Note that cement refers to process emissions only, as a lack of data prevents the full reallocation of indirect emissions to this sector. More comprehensive conceptualisations of indirect emissions including all products and services (scope 3 reporting) are discussed in Chapter 2 section 2.3. Emissions are converted into CO2-equivalents based on global warming potentials with a 100-year time horizon (GWP100) from the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report. Percentages may not add up to 100 across categories due to rounding at the second significant digit. {Figure 2.12, 2.3}

(summarised from Annex II of the AR6 WGIII Report, 2022) • Direct GHG emissions
are allocated to sectors using IPCC 2006 codes, as described in Annex II •
Indirect CO2 emissions are sourced from the IEA dataset “CO2 emissions from
fossil fuel combustion” • Indirect CO2 emissions are harmonized with the direct
GHG emissions database using the 2019 data points as follows: • Aggregate
emissions categories are removed to avoid double counting (TOTIND, TOTTRANS,
MANUFACT) • ONONSPEC is allocated to the residential, commercial,
agriculture/forestry/fishing sectors, based on the fraction of CO2 relative to
the total in each of these sectors • IEA sectors are then matched to the IPCC
AR7 sectors, described in Annex II • The fraction of total IEA electricity and
heat emissions is calculated for each subsector • This fraction is then
multiplied by the electricity and heat emissions value in the EDGAR database to
harmonize the IEA indirect emissions with the EDGAR direct emissions • These
steps are all described in Annex II of the AR6 WGIII Report, 2022 The code for
the data processing procedure is available online:
