 Germany has made a commitment to reduce particulate matter emissions. The revised Gothenburg Protocol and the revised NEC Directive both define emission reduction targets relative to a 2005 base year, mandating 26% (2020) and 43% (2030) reductions respectively. Germany has made a commitment to reduce particulate matter emissions.

-**Total PM₂.₅ emissions** dropped by 59.9% between 1995 and 2020. The Main Drivers for PM₂.₅ emissions are **Fuel Combustion (NFR 1.A)** with 72% of total 1995 emissions and a 65% reduction between 1995-2020 and as a sum the **Industrial Processes (NFR 2)** with about 21% of total 1995 emissions and a 51% reduction between 1995-2020. 
  
-Within both National totals and NFR 1.A, **Transport (NFR 1.A.3)** is responsible for the biggest part of PM₂.₅ emissions. Here, about 77% of 2019 PM₂.₅ transport emissions are induced by **Road Transport (NFR 1.A.3.b)**, caused by two third directly by fuel consumption **(NFR 1.A.3.b.i - v)** and the other third by road abrasion and tyre and brake wear **(NFR 1.A.3.b.vi - vii)**.+Between 1995 and 2021, **Total PM<sub>2.5</sub> emissions declined by 58.6%**.
