Annex B. Effective carbon rates sectoral decomposition and fuel category breakdown
Table A B.1. Sectoral decomposition in the OECD Effective Carbon Rates Database | |
---|---|
Sector | Definition |
Road | All energy used in road transport. |
Electricity | All fuels used to generate electricity for domestic use (rather than the amount of energy generated from each fuel). Note that fuels used in the auto-generation of electricity are classified under industrial production. |
Industry | All energy used in industrial processes, in heating (incl. inside industrial installations) and in the transformation of energy, including fuels used for auto-generation of electricity in industrial installations. |
Buildings | All energy used for commercial and residential heating. |
Off-road | All energy used in off-road transport (incl. pipelines, rail transport, domestic aviation and maritime transport). |
Agriculture & fisheries | Energy used in agriculture, fisheries and forestry. Energy used in on-road transport in this sector is included in the road transport sector. |
