More recently, Germany has made a commitment under the multicomponent protocol to further minimise SO₂ emissions. Since 2010, it is no longer permissible to exceed a National Emission Ceiling of 550kt SO₂ for Germany as whole. The revised Gothenburg Protocol and the revised NEC Directive both define emission reduction targets relative to a 2005 base year, mandating 21% (2020) and 58% (2030) reductions respectively. | More recently, Germany has made a commitment under the multicomponent protocol to further minimise SO₂ emissions.

- | By far the largest proportion of SO₂ is produced by the oxidation of the sulphur contained in the fuels used in combustion processes, Fuel Combustion (NFR 1.A) with close to 96% of total SO₂ emissions in 1990 and a 96% reduction between 1990-2019. In 1990, the biggest source of emissions therein is Public Electricity and Heat Production (NFR 1.A.1.a) with about 60% of the emissions from Fuel Combustion (NFR 1.A). Other sources substantially influencing the SO₂ emission trend are Manufacturing Industries and Construction (NFR 1.A.2) and Other Sectors (NFR 1.A.4, including commercial/ | + | By far the largest proportion of SO₂ is produced by the oxidation of the sulphur contained in the fuels used in combustion processes, |
