Observation on data availability/gaps

The Emissions Factors Toolkit (EFT) is published by DEFRA and the Devolved Administrations to assist local authorities in carrying out Review and Assessment of local air quality as part of their duties under the Environmental Act 1995 as amended by the Environment Act 2021. The EFT allows users to calculate road vehicle pollutant emission rates for NOx, PM10, PM2.5 and CO2 for a specified year, road type, vehicle speed and vehicle fleet composition.
