National reported data

The JRC EDGAR team aims to contribute policy support to the Commission by providing a consistent global emissions inventory of greenhouse gases (GHG) and air pollutants (AP), together with official national inventories (e.g. as reported under UNFCCC, Gothenburg Protocol) and which allows gap filling where official data do not exist.

Different emission datasets are confronted, as requested by:

  • the Task Force on Hemispheric Transport of Air Pollutants (HTAP): go to EDGAR-HTAP
    (For more info: please contact Frank.Dentenerjrc.ec.europa.eu or consult www.htap.org)
  • the project of the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (E-PRTR)
    (For more info: please contact: Greet.Maenhoutjrc.ec.europa.eu or consult prtr.ec.europa.eu)
  • the project of the Covenant of Mayors
