The Environment Agency’s Pollution Inventory
The Environment Agency (EA) compile a Pollution Inventory (PI) of emissions from around 2,000 major point sources in England and Wales. This requires the extensive compilation of data from a large number of different source sectors. This valuable source of information is incorporated into the NAEI wherever possible, either as emissions data, or surrogate data for particular source sectors. The information held in the PI is also extensively used in the generation of the NAEI maps, as the locations of individual point sources are known. The NAEI and the EA work closely to maximise the exchange of useful information. The PI allows access to air emissions through post code interrogation, and may be found at:-
