3.2.2 Methodological issues
The Danish emission inventory is based on the CORINAIR (CORe INventory on AIR emissions)
system, which is a European program for air emission inventories. CORINAIR includes methodology
structure and software for inventories. The methodology is described in the EMEP/Corinair
Emission Inventory Guidebook 3 rd edition, prepared by the UNECE/EMEP Task Force on Emissions
Inventories and Projections (EMEP/Corinair 2004). Emission data are stored in an Access
database, from which data are transferred to the reporting formats.
The emission inventory for stationary combustion is based on activity rates from the Danish energy
statistics. General emission factors for various fuels, plants and sectors have been determined.
Some large plants, such as power plants, are registered individually as large point sources and
plant-specific emission data is used.
3.2.2.1 Large point sources
Large emission sources such as power plants, industrial plants and refineries are included as large
point sources in the Danish emission database. Each point source may consist of more than one
part, e.g. a power plant with several units. By registering the plants as point sources in the database
it is possible to use plant-specific emission factors.
In the inventory for the year 2003 70 stationary combustion plants are specified as large point
sources. These point sources include:
• Power plants and decentralised CHP plants (combined heat and power plants)
• Municipal waste incineration plants
• Large industrial combustion plants
• Petroleum refining plants
The fuel consumption of stationary combustion plants registered as large point sources is 414 PJ
(2003). This corresponds to 67% of the overall fuel consumption for stationary combustion.
Further details about the large point sources are shown in Annex 3A. The number of large point
sources registered in the databases increased from 1990 to 2003.
