The Environmental Protection Agency says latest data shows that Ireland will meet its compliance limits on Greenhouse Gas Emissions.
The agency has released figures for the time period of 1990 to 2014, and they show that the total greenhouse gas emissions for Ireland in 2014 were around 58.2 million tonnes carbon dioxide equivalent (Mt CO2 eq), which is 0.7 % lower than emissions in 2013.
It follows a 1.3% decrease in emissions reported for 2013 and shows emission reductions in eight of the last nine years.
The EPA says there were increases across Industry, Transport and Waste sectors last year.
However, they report that there were decreases in greenhouse gas emissions in the Energy, Residential and Agriculture sectors.
More than 70% of Ireland's greenhouse gas emissions come from three sectors.
Agriculture is the largest single contributor to overall emissions at over 33%, Transport is at 19.5% and Energy at 19.1%.
The remainder shows emissions from the Industry and Commercial sector at 15.5%, from the Residential sector at 9.8% and Waste is at 2.7%.
