National emissions reported to the Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (LRTAP Convention), v1.2, 2024

Data on emissions of air pollutants submitted to the LRTAP Convention and copied to EEA. Data compiled are annual national total and sectoral 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 (NFR19) format used by countries. A consolidated dataset for all countries in the NFR19 format and consistent with the European Union's air pollutant emission inventory submission to the LRTAP Convention is also provided.



A revision has been made to the table structure to ensure more consistent and stable use of unit codes, pollutant codes, and attribute names. The database is now available in a format that supports the 2018-2023 versions, as well as a new 2024 format that will be used going forward.
