This statistic shows the amount of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions through the production of electricity from sources other than oil, coal, nuclear or gas in the United Kingdom (UK) from 1990 to 2017. It shows that emissions have increased, which is consistent with the rise in popularity of alternative energy. In 2000, 9,000 metric tons of sulphur dioxide (SO2) equivalent were emitted, rising to 20,700 metric tons of sulphur dioxide equivalent in 2017.
