BC emissions from the industrial sector in the Netherlands show a large increase in 2007, particularly for BC. This is due to a increase in combustion of natural gas liquids in the IEA energy data. natural gas liquids was mapped to the aggregate diesel fuel category in the current sion of CEDS, resulting in an increase in BC emissions, which is not realistic. This mapping will be changed in future versions of the dataset, which will remove this increase.

We have evaluated the impact of this incorrect fuel mapping and this only has a signifiant impact on estimated emissions of BC, OC, and CH4 over 2007-2014 in the Netherlands.
