Overview
EN 19694-1:2016 - Stationary source emissions: Determination of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in energy‑intensive industries - Part 1: General aspects is the umbrella European Standard that defines common principles, terminology and rules for quantifying GHG emissions from key heavy industries (steel & iron, cement, aluminium, lime and ferroalloys). It sets out harmonized methodological requirements to ensure accuracy, precision and reproducibility of GHG results used for reporting and verification.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Scope & definitions: Common terms (CO2e, biogenic CO2, mass balance, activity data, KPIs) and organizational/operational boundary rules.
- System boundaries: Guidance on defining facility, operational and organizational boundaries for consistent inventories.
- Harmonized measurement methods:
- Mass balance based methods for process and fuel-related emissions.
- Stack emission measurement based methods for direct monitoring of flue gases.
- Monitoring plans: Minimum content for monitoring plans (see Annex A) covering activity data, methods, QA/QC and reporting lines.
- Sampling, analysis & labs: Reference to standards for sampling, lab competency, accreditation and required analytical methods.
- Uncertainty assessment: Principles and procedures to quantify measurement and calculation uncertainty.
- Reference factors: Use of Global Warming Potentials (GWP), process, electricity and fuel emission factors; treatment of biomass and mixed fuels.
- Biomass considerations: Definitions, sampling and reporting rules to separate biogenic and fossil-derived CO2.
- Verification & assurance: Requirements for third‑party verification/certification and data quality assurance (Annex C).
Practical Applications
- Establishing compliant GHG inventories and site-level emission performance monitoring for energy‑intensive production sites.
- Designing and documenting a robust GHG monitoring plan for regulatory reporting, emissions trading schemes or corporate sustainability programs.
- Supporting third‑party verification by providing standardized, auditable methods and reference annexes.
- Informing process optimization, carbon management, and comparison of emission performance over time.
Who uses this standard
- Environmental and sustainability managers in steel, cement, aluminium, lime and ferroalloy plants
- Emissions measurement teams and process engineers
- Accredited testing laboratories and QA/QC specialists
- Third‑party verifiers, auditors and national regulators
