Inventory Review 2005 - Emission Data reported to CLRTAP and under the NEC Directive - Initial review for HMs and POPs
EMEP/MSC-W Technical Report 1/2005

Released: 2005/08/16: See the report

A EMEP/EEA Joint Review Report.

Abstract
This report presents the first annual review of emissions data reported under the UNECE Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution (LRTAP) and the National Emissions Ceilings Directive (NEC Directive) of the European Union.

The report has two main sections. The first section is an initial review of emission data for HMs and POPs reported under the LRTAP Convention, including a comparison of reported data with emissions data calculated for several pan-European emission inventories. The second section of the report comprises the second part of the Synthesis and Assessment Report. It presents an overview of the results from the 2005 review of inventory data quality.

The review tests performed in 2005, and which are the focus of this report, correspond to the first two stages (initial check, and synthesis and assessment) of the proposed annual review process.

A main recommendation from this work is to continue progress towards a centralized review in order to get a step further towards the goal of increasing the accuracy of the emissions inventories.

The main messages generated from this year’s review are summarised. Further details on each issue are provided in the respective sections of the main body of the report. General recommendations arising from this year’s review are summarised in the final section of the Executive Summary.
