Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Fuel Combustion provides estimated New York State emissions releases. The inventory includes annual data from 1990 through at least 2010, broken down by sector and fuel type. The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) compiled this dataset.
Use Cases
- Analyze emissions trends over time using the year column and million metric tons values.
- Compare sectoral contributions using the residential/commercial/industrial, electricity generation, and transportation breakdowns.
- Model the relationship between fuel type and sector emissions using the current year's fuel type breakdown data.
Strengths
- Time series spanning at least 20 years from 1990 to 2010.
- Sector-level breakdown for residential/commercial/industrial, electricity generation, and transportation.
Limitations
- Data is currently only updated through 2010, creating a significant temporal gap.
- Geographic coverage is limited to New York State, not nationally representative.
