Historical emissions

Historical emissions data cover the period 1990–2024. They are taken from Australia's National Inventory Report 2022, available from Australia’s National Greenhouse Accounts (DCCEEW, 2024b), and from the March 2024 Quarterly Update of Australia’s National Greenhouse Gas Inventory, published in August 2024 (DCCEEW, 2024i).

Emissions from the Quarterly Update are converted to AR4 using the AR5/AR4 ratio from National Inventory Report 2022 (DCCEEW, 2024b).
