 +Nitrogen oxides essentially arise from the nitrogen content of the fuels in combustion processes and at temperatures above 1,000 ° C also from air nitrogen. Another source of NO<sub>x</sub> is the electrolysis in primary aluminium production due to the presence of nitrogen in the anode, which can be oxidized to NO<sub>x</sub>. All these emission sources resulting from energy related processes are included in 1.A.2.b. If other sources of NO<sub>x</sub> have quantitative effects is not known. In order not to miss process related NO<sub>x</sub> emissions the standard emission factor is also used. Germany is following recommendations provided by the Expert Review Team for the NECD Review 2017.

-Therefore, all NO<sub>x</sub> emissions will be reported there. If other sources of NO<sub>x</sub> have quantitative effects is not known. The inventory compiler will try to get reliable information from the relevant industry association.+
