IRIS - Industrial emissions Reporting Information System Database Schema: IRIS is a website (http://iris-test.eea.europa.eu/IMPL.aspx) created by the European Commission, DG Environment, with the support of the European Environment Agency (EEA). IRIS provides a summary of the information reported by Member States on the implementation of the IPPC Directive in the context of the latest reporting period (2006-08) (IPPC Implementation).

Energy efficiency index (ODEX) in industry by country: Energy efficiency index of industry (ODEX) is a weighted average of the specific consumption index of 10 manufacturing branches; the weight being the share of each branch in the sum of the energy consumption of these branches in year t and the sum of the implied energy consumption from each underlying industrial branches in year t (based on the unit consumption of the sub-sector with a moving reference year).

Industry: The environmental performance of European industry has improved over the past decades. Changes have occurred for a number of reasons: stricter environmental regulation, improvements in energy efficiency, a general tendency for European industry to move away from certain heavy and more polluting types of manufacture, and companies' participation in voluntary schemes aiming to reduce their environmental impact. Despite these improvements, industry today is still responsible for a significant burden on our environment in terms of pollution and waste generated by the sector.
