Following the decrease in the use of coal for electricity generation, a trend of reduction in emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulfur in the NPP continues (6%-13%).
Increase in greenhouse gas emissions
Increase of 2% compared to 2023, carbon dioxide, methane and mainly fluorine gases (a sharp increase of 30%) due to a temporary order for the war on iron swords. The Montreal Protocol implementation regulations allow the import of refrigerant gases for security purposes or to protect human life.
