An understanding of the evolution of sectoral CO2 emissions for all EU countries in recent
decades would clearly be useful for political authorities when designing future environmental
policies. This paper investigates the process of convergence in sectoral per capita CO2 emissions,
with a focus on the energy sector. The concept of club convergence is used to analyse emissions
in 28 EU countries from 1971 to 2012, with special attention paid to the energy subsectors (power
generation and heating, manufactures and construction, transportation, and other minor fuel
combustion). We find that core European countries (France, the Netherlands, Germany and the
UK) are included in the best performing clubs, no matter the sector or subsector, whereas among
Central and Eastern European Countries, a few diverge from the average towards higher
emissions. Relative convergence among a large number of EU members would, therefore, support
the relevance of both the EU abatement policy and international agreements in this process. [-]
