RAINS databases

The following links point to documentations of the methodologies for emission calculations. Note that some of the data shown in these documentations date back to the analyses for the NEC directive in 1998/99! The actual data for the 2004 review are available from the on-line version of the RAINS model!

Ssupplementary documentation developed within the work of UN/ECE Expert Group on Techno-Economic Issues (EGTEI) should be used as well since it provides updated background information for a number of sectors.
