What you can ask
- “What does EEA E-PRTR (EU Emissions) have for the area or asset I'm working on?”
- “Pull the most recent EEA E-PRTR (EU Emissions) records and put them in a table.”
- “What does EEA E-PRTR (EU Emissions) cover, and how fresh is the data?”
About this source
EEA E-PRTR — the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register, the EU analogue of EPA TRI / GHGRP (European Environment Agency). Facility-level annual pollutant releases to air (CO2, CH4, NOX, SOX, NH3, CO, NMVOC, PM10, PM2.5) across the 27 EU member states for reporting year 2022, plus the 129 ranked top industrial facilities and the large-combustion-plant (LCP) inventory — filter by country, pollutant, industrial sector, reporting year, or a WGS84 bounding box. Each release row carries facility name, city, country, pollutant, total release mass (kg/yr), sector, and WGS84 lat/long. Use for European facility emissions the way you use envirofacts (TRI) and epa-ghg (GHGRP) for the U.S. No auth.
