- Avoided Emissions and Generation Tool (AVERT) - Web ToolThe AVoided Emissions and geneRation Tool (AVERT) evaluates how energy policies and programs such as energy efficiency, renewable energy, and electric vehicles lead to changes in emissions of particulate matter (PM2.5), nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulfur dioxide (SO2), carbon dioxide (CO2), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and ammonia (NH3) from electric power plants at a county, state, or regional level. AVERT is a free tool designed to meet the needs of state air quality planners, energy officials, public utility commission staff, environmental agency staff, professionals in the clean energy field, people working on climate planning, and other interested stakeholders.1Licence not specifiedabout 1 year ago

- EPA FRS FacilitiesTo improve public health and the environment, the EPA collects information about facilities or sites subject to environmental regulation. This page provides state comma separated value (CSV) files containing key information of all facilities and sites within the Facility Registry System (FRS). Each state zip file contains a single CSV file of key facility-level information including facility name and address, geospatial information, EPA and State programs the facility is associated with, and facility industry classifications (SIC and NAICS codes and descriptions). Complete documentation of the CSV file is included within the zip archive.

- 2012 Greenhouse Gas Program_National_FRSIdentification of Greenhouse Gas data can be sourced through geospatial downloading of data as well as localized by facility through the Facility Registry Service (FRS) as well as the Toxic Release Inventory (TRI) Customizable searches are also available and can be collectively tabulated into a CSV file list. The tabular list of all these data sets are generated into a CSV and also separated by State.

- National Emissions Inventory (NEI) | Air Emissions Inventories | US EPAThe National Emissions Inventory (NEI) is a comprehensive and detailed estimate of air emissions of criteria pollutants, criteria precursors, and hazardous air pollutants from air emissions sources. The NEI is released every three years based primarily upon data provided by State, Local, and Tribal air agencies for sources in their jurisdictions and supplemented by data developed by the US EPA. The NEI is built using the Emissions Inventory System (EIS) first to collect the data from State, Local, and Tribal air agencies and then to blend that data with other data sources.

- Release Chemical Report | TRI Explorer | US EPATRI tracks the management of certain toxic chemicals that may pose a threat to human health and the environment. U.S. facilities in different industry sectors must report annually how much of each chemical is released to the environment and/or managed through recycling, energy recovery and treatment. (A "release" of a chemical means that it is emitted to the air or water, or placed in some type of land disposal.) The information submitted by facilities is compiled in the Toxics Release Inventory. https://www.epa.gov/toxics-release-inventory-tri-program/learn-about-toxics-release-inventory#What is the Toxics Release Inventory?

- EPA System of Registries Reusable Component Services (RCS)This is a catalog of data descriptions. It does not seem to contain any actual data, and although many of the data sources listed have a tab that say \"Dataset\", nothing loads. It is unclear whether these are datasets that exist elsewhere or which have been deleted already. It contains useful descriptions of the datasets (which may or may not exist). Home page states: "Find everything from web services to schemas, data models, and templates." Resource types include a wide range of application integration tools. System of Registries home page states: " provides ... automated services to enable better understanding of environmental terminology and data used by the Agency."
