Definition

Greenhouse gas emissions of the industries and households resident in the area during the calendar year, in million tonnes of CO2 equivalent, measured by the production approach of the environmental-economic accounts. Indirect emissions, such as those from electricity bought from another region, are not counted. Stats NZ regional estimates for the regional council areas of New Zealand.

A residence basis: emissions of a region's businesses and households, including their activity elsewhere, so it is not the territorial inventory in ghg_emissions_total and the regions do not add up to the national inventory. Stats NZ revises the whole series with each release.
