The report evaluates the overall NOx emissions from larger gas boilers on the Danish market. The results of the work are to be used to build up knowledge on the environmental impact of gas utilisations that is useful for instance for the present discussion of the actual taxation of NOx emissions of appliances.
 
The conclusion is that the present figure (calculated with 2011 data) for the emission factor of large gas boilers/burners (population above 120 kW of heat input) is 34,4 g/GJ.
 
The figure is expected to decrease in the future with the replacement of older burners with new technologies. The pace of decrease could very much depend on the regulation that would apply in the future. Currently the annual decrease is about 0,3g/GJ.
