2024 Emissions footprint of UK domestic and imported gas

This factsheet summarises a comparison of the best estimates of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions footprint of the UK’s domestic gas supply, to the emissions footprint of gas imported as liquefied natural gas (LNG) or gas imported via pipeline in 2024. This does not include oil production and the emissions do not include downstream combustion emissions. Emissions intensity shown is the estimate of GHG emissions of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and methane (CH 4) per barrel of oil equivalent of natural gas. The previous comparison published by the North Sea Transition Authority in 2023, related only to carbon dioxide emissions intensities in 2022.
