Please note that the reporting platform remains open for submissions until the end of the year and the dataset is updated daily to reflect new submissions. Guidance on how to read this dataset is available in the Open Data Portal User Guide (Header Menu > Explore).

Please note that this dataset may contain data from cities or, in some instances, groups of cities at different administrative levels. This includes metropolitan areas, combined authorities, and some regional councils. When using the inventory data for aggregation, comparison and trend analysis, please note that the inventory data is based on non-verified self-reported city inputs. The reported inventory may not include all emission sources within the city boundary.
