The fuel baseline standard is calculated based on Union average fossil fuel consumption of petrol, diesel, gasoil, LPG and CNG, as follows:
where:
‘x’ represents the different fuels and energy falling within the scope of this Directive and as defined in the table below;
‘GHGix’ is the greenhouse gas intensity of the annual supply sold on the market of fuel ‘x’ or energy falling within the scope of this Directive expressed in gCO2eq/MJ. The values for fossil fuels presented in point 5 of Part 2 of Annex I are used;
‘MJx’ is the total energy supplied and converted from reported volumes of fuel ‘x’ expressed in mega joules.
Consumption data
The consumption data used for calculation of the value is as follows:
Fuel | Energy Consumption (MJ) | Source |
---|---|---|
diesel | 7 894 969 × 106 | 2010 Member States reporting to the UNFCCC |
non-road gasoil | 240 763 × 106 | |
petrol | 3 844 356 × 106 | |
LPG | 217 563 × 106 | |
CNG | 51 037 × 106 |
The fuel baseline standard for 2010 shall be: 94,1 gCO2eq/MJ
