Three types of emissions
The figure illustrates three types of emissions. The domestic direct emissions come from the household’s consumption (the private consumption) of fuel and heating. The domestic indirect emissions come from the production of goods and services in the Swedish private consumption. International indirect emissions come from the production of goods and services consumed in Swedish households, before being imported. All three types of emissions above sum up to the total emissions from private consumption in Sweden.
