Footnote:

This table provides metadata for the actual indicator available from Iceland statistics closest to the corresponding global SDG indicator. Please note that even when the global SDG indicator is fully available from Icelandic statistics, this table should be consulted for information on national methodology and other Icelandic-specific metadata information.

Percentage of population with access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking

Unit of measurement

Percentage (%)
Definitions

Access to modern cooking solution in the home will be defined as “access to clean fuels and technologies” rather than “access to non-solid fuels.” This shift will help ensure that health and other “nexus” benefits are better counted, and thus realized.
Calculations

Countries classified as high-income with a Gross National Income (GNI) of more than US$ 12,746 - per capita are assumed to have made a complete transition to using clean fuels and technologies as the primary domestic energy source for cooking and the primary reliance on polluting (unclean) fuels and technologies use is reported to be less than 5% and assumed as zero for regional and global estimates.
Comments and limitations

Data follows the UN specification for this indicator. This indicator has been identified in collaboration with topic experts.

This table provides information on metadata for SDG indicators as defined by the UN Statistical Commission. Complete global metadata is provided by the UN Statistics Division.

Proportion of population with primary reliance on clean fuels and technology
Target number

Global indicator description

Proportion of population with primary reliance on clean fuels and technology is calculated as the number of people using clean fuels and technologies for cooking, heating and lighting divided by total population reporting that any cooking, heating or lighting, expressed as percentage. “Clean” is defined by the emission rate targets and specific fuel recommendations (i.e. against unprocessed coal and kerosene) included in the normative guidance WHO guidelines for indoor air quality: household fuel combustion.
