Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) is a highly reactive gas, that along with Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) and Ammonia (NH3) is measured as a precursor to acid rain.
Sector classification is based on the NACE code, which is the industry standard classification system for economic activities in the European Community.

NOx emissions from electricity from gas production in the UK from 1990-2017
This statistic shows the total amount of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emitted by the production of electricity from gas in the United Kingdom (UK) from 1990 to 2017. It shows that emissions actually increased from 1990 to 2000, but then decreased over the following years. In 2017, * metric tons of sulphur dioxide (SO2) equivalent were emitted, compared to the * metric tons emitted in 2000.
