Select Methodology:

Choose between two emissions calculation methodologies below. The Small Emitters Tool (SET) uses a statistical model, while the Gate-to-Gate (G2G) approach is based on actual flight trajectories using the Advanced Emissions Model.

Small Emitters Tool (SET) Emissions

This dashboard provides an overview of CO2 emissions across the EUROCONTROL area, tracking their evolution since 2019. It includes comparisons with 2019 levels, both at network and individual State level.

The data is calculated using the Small Emitters Tool (SET) and provided by the EUROCONTROL Aviation Sustainability Unit. You can access the data in our data section. For details on the methodology, data sources, and intended use, please refer to the SET Methodology Info.

Gate-to-Gate (G2G) Emissions

This dashboard provides historical estimates of CO2, NOX, and SOX emissions based on the Gate-to-Gate methodology, developed jointly by the EUROCONTROL Performance Review Unit and the EUROCONTROL Aviation Sustainability Unit.

Emissions are calculated using the Advanced Emissions Model (AEM), and are based on the best available trajectory data. The data reflects results from the Area Focus methodology, as presented on the EUROCONTROL FlyingGreen platform and are available for access on the data section. For details on the methodology, data sources, and intended use, please refer to the G2G Methodology Info.
