Why EPER?
  • Rio Declaration in 1992 gave impetus to the idea
    of setting up emission inventories as a tool for
    providing information on pollutants to the
    public.
  • Idea became concrete in 1996 EU Directive on
    Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control
    (IPPC).
  • In 2000 the details of the inventory given in a
    Commission Decision on the establishment of a
    European Pollutant Emission Register (EPER).
  • Data covering 2001 published in 2004 2004
    data reported in 2006.

8
What information can I find in EPER?
  • EPER contains data on the main pollutant
    emissions to air and water reported by 11,000
    large and medium-sized industrial facilities in
    the 25 EU Member States (2004!) and Norway
  • 50 pollutants are covered
  • All reported emissions data are publicly
    accessible through the website eper.ec.europa.eu,
    hosted by the European Environment Agency in
    Copenhagen
  • website also provides descriptions of each of the
    substances, their uses, major emission sources
    and their impacts on human health and the
    environment

11
Comparing reports 2001 / 2004
  • 2004 reporting seems to be more complete as
    compared to 2001
  • Problems in identification of the individual
    facilities
  • Obligatory ID fields filled quite well
  • Less information in the voluntary ID fields

source EPER review report 2004, publ. 2007
12
Who benefits from EPER?
  • Citizens can find out about emissions from
    industrial facilities in their neighbourhood and
    compare them with other facilities
  • This empowers people to ask serious questions,
    and engage in discussions, about reducing these
    emissions
  • Companies can look at the pollution records of
    their competitors, increase their own efforts to
    excel in environmental terms and then demonstrate
    this to the public.
  • EPER aims to provide scientists, local
    authorities and policy makers with a consistent,
    Europe-wide emissions database

13
Which industrial facilities are included in EPER?
  • EPER covers large and medium-sized industrial
    plants
  • which are listed in Annex I of the IPPC Directive
    (identical with Annex A3 of the EPER Decision)
  • and which exceed specified emission thresholds
  • the threshold values have been fixed at a level
    that aims to cover about 90 of the emissions
    from facilities covered by IPPC (to limit the
    administrative burden on industry)
  • EPER holds emissions data on 11,000 installations

Large VOC-install. gt200t/a or gt150 kg/h

15
What share of total EU15 emissions does EPER
cover?
  • provides data for large and medium-sized point
    sources in the industrial sectors covered by the
    IPPC Directive
  • The share of emissions from all sources covered
    by EPER varies for each Member State, industrial
    activity and pollutant
  • For some air pollutants the EPER share can be
    assessed, whereas for direct and indirect
    emissions to water it is more difficult due to a
    lack of pan-European data sets gtgtgt

16
Comparison with the EU15s total emissions (2001
reporting)
  • 42 carbon dioxide (CO2)
  • 15 methane (CH4)
  • 13 dinitrogenoxide (N2O)
  • 6 non-methane volatile organic carbon (NMVOC)
  • 26 nitrogen oxides (NOx) and
  • 70 sulphur oxides (SOx) emissions

n.b. EPER covers mainly industrial sources.
excluded transport sector, most agricultural
sources(but underlying totals include these
emissions!)
17
How has the quality of EPER data been checked?
  • quality of the data has been checked at local,
    regional and national level before the data were
    included in EPER
  • responsibility of States to check the accuracy of
    their emissions data before submitting them to
    EPER
  • In addition, Member States, the Commission and
    the EEA have checked that the data submitted
    comply with the agreed reporting format outlined
    in the EPER decisions and EPER guidance document

18
Is any information kept confidential?
  • According to the EPER Guidance Document all EPER
    data are non-confidential
  • Nevertheless, under existing EU legislation the
    protection of personal data has to be ensured
  • Therefore, where an EPER facility is operated by
    a private person (and not a company), the
    emissions are included but the persons name and
    address may be kept confidential

From EPER to E-PRTR
  • EU signed the UN-ECE Protocol on Pollutant
    Release and Transfer Registers (PRTR) under the
    Aarhus Convention in 2003, and ratified on 3
    March 2006
  • EPER was upgraded to a fully comprehensive
    European PRTR "E-PRTR" that includes data on
    waste transfers
  • Commission published the regulation 166/2006 on
    the European PRTR
  • First reporting year for the PRTR 2007

From EPER to E-PRTR what's new?
  • Expansion in all dimensions to match the PRTR
    Protocol and existing EU legislation
  • Inclusion of releases to land and transfers of
