Total GHG emissions (excluding those from LULUCF) increased from 245,757.14 GgCOeq in 2000 to 354,357.61 GgCOeq in 2016, with an average annual increase of 2.31%. The net removal of CO increased from 61,960.76 GgCOeq in 2000 to 91,134.15 GgCOeq in 2016. Net GHG emissions therefore increased overall from 183,796.37 GgCOeq in 2000 to 263,223.46 GgCOeq in 2016, with an average annual increase of 2.27%. From 2000-2016, the main source of GHG emissions was the Energy sector, which saw an increase of 53.74% from 165,143.84 GgCOeq in 2000 to 253,895.61 GgCOeq in 2016. The proportion of GHG emissions in the Energy sector accounted for 67.20 % of total emission sources in 2000, increasing to 71.65% of total emission sources in 2016. In the same period, the share of emissions from the Agriculture sector decreased from 19.93% in 2000 to 14.72% in 2016, while the share of emissions from the IPPU and Waste sectors remained constant (See Figure 1-9).
