Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what his latest estimate is for domestic wood burning as a proportion of primary emissions of fine particulate matter, PM2.5, based on his Department’s contributions to the Digest of UK Energy Statistics for the UK in 2020 published in July 2021.

Emissions of key air pollutants are compiled and reported by Defra on an annual basis through the National Atmospheric Emissions Inventory at https://naei.beis.gov.uk/data. Emissions data for 2020 will be published on 15 February 2022.
