An emission performance standard is a limit that sets thresholds above which a different type of vehicle emissions control technology might be needed. While emission performance standards have been used to dictate limits for conventional pollutants such as oxides of nitrogen and oxides of sulphur (NO x and SO x ), [ 3 ] this regulatory ...
Emission (radiocommunications), a radio signal (usually modulated) emitted from a radio transmitter Emission coefficient , a coefficient in the power output per unit time of an electromagnetic source Emission line , or "spectral line", a dark or bright line in an otherwise uniform and continuous spectrum
An emission intensity (also carbon intensity or C.I.) is the emission rate of a given pollutant relative to the intensity of a specific activity, or an industrial production process; for example grams of carbon dioxide released per megajoule of energy produced, or the ratio of greenhouse gas emissions produced to gross domestic product (GDP).
[66] [68] The 2019 Regulation set new emission targets relative to a 2021 baseline, with a reduction of the average CO 2 emissions from new cars by 15% in 2025, and by 37.5% in 2030. For light-commercial vehicles the new targets are a 15% reduction for 2025 and a 31% reduction for 2030. [67] [69] Specific emissions targets for passenger cars
Emission intensity is a ratio between greenhouse gas emissions and another metric, e.g., gross domestic product (GDP) or energy use. The terms "carbon intensity" and "emissions intensity" are also sometimes used. [63] Emission intensities may be calculated using market exchange rates (MER) or purchasing power parity (PPP).

2 emissions are measured in pounds per hour using both an SO 2 pollutant concentration monitor and a volumetric flow monitor. For NO x, both a NO x pollutant concentration monitor and a diluent gas monitor are used to determine the emissions rate in weight per volume or weight per heat value (for example lbs/million Btu, lbs/ft 3, kg/kWh or kg ...
A coal power plant in Germany. Due to emissions trading, coal may become a less competitive fuel than other options. Emissions trading is a market-oriented approach to controlling pollution by providing economic incentives for reducing the emissions of pollutants. [1] The concept is also known as cap and trade (CAT) or emissions trading scheme ...
Emission standards for light-duty diesel vehicles (GVW ≤ 3,500 kg) are summarised in Table 4. Ranges of emission limits refer to different classes (by reference mass) of light commercial vehicles; comparable to EU light-duty vehicle emission standards. The lowest limit in each range applies to passenger cars (GVW ≤ 2,500 kg; up to 6 seats).
