Additional information

Data compiled are annual national total and sectorial emissions of air pollutants and associated activity data reported by EEA member and cooperating countries. Data are available for download in the UNECE/EMEP Nomenclature for Reporting (NFR14) format used by countries. A consolidated dataset for all countries in the NFR14 format and consistent with the European Union's air pollutant emission inventory submission to the LRTAP Convention is also provided.

Produced figures

Figure Persistent organic pollutant emissions in the EU-27 Member States, by country, 2005-2020 The figure shows changes in dioxins (PCDDs) and furans (PCDFs), hexachlorobenzene (HCB), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emissions between 2005 and 2020, based on data reported by EU Member States under the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) Air Convention. Red dots indicate an increase in emissions and blue dots indicate a decrease.
