This report presents information on greenhouse gas emission projections for Austria and relevant policies and measures, according to reporting obligations as defined in Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 on the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action. It includes greenhouse gas projections for the coming years up to 2040 and describes the policies and measures to reduce emissions from each source.
The results include two different scenarios: the scenario “with existing measures” takes into account climate change mitigation measures implemented by 1 January 2018. It shows a decrease of 11.6 % in greenhouse gases from 1990 to 2040. The scenario “with additional measures” also includes planned policies and measures specified in the Integrated National Energy and Climate Plan for Austria (December 2019). Within this scenario a decrease of 22.1 % is projected for 2040.
