The Government will take into account all factors that need to be considered in regulating the sale of the most polluting fuels. This includes the types of emissions from different fuels, the air quality benefits, and the impacts on business and households of switching to cleaner fuels. Our assessments of emissions of pollutants from domestic combustion sources use a range of data but are based on established international reporting. The range of fuels and appliances used in the UK is large and emissions from each combination vary greatly depending on how the appliance is operated. Emission factors for wood can also vary due to the differences in moisture content and fuel density. In compiling our National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory we use a combination of guidebook emissions factors for different combinations of fuels and appliances, alongside UK specific data on regional fuel and appliance usage.
