Damage to human health and the environment due to pollution costs between €277-433 billion per year, with 20 % of all EU pollution coming from installations regulated by the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED). In order for the EU’s Zero Pollution action plan to successfully reduce the pollution burden to zero by 2050, there is a clear need to revise the IED. However, this requires the development of measurement infrastructure to underpin the key legislative changes: an order of magnitude decrease in emission limits; new reporting and uncertainty requirements; monitoring species of emerging concern. Proposals addressing this SRT should provide the measurement infrastructure necessary for the implementation of the revised IED.
