Significance for the industry

Industrial plants can use the PRTR for the purpose of identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and as a metric to assess their progress towards sustainable development. Monitoring or estimating pollution levels and publishing data on pollutant releases can foster transparency, work to improve efficiency and reduce pollution levels and associated costs. Transparency can lead to improved corporate reputation, fostering trust, and potentially improving the business. PRTR can benefit both management and workers by stimulating improved environmental stewardship

PRTR is of great importance to the industry because:

  • It serves as a major driving force for pollution reduction and eco-innovation in many sectors of the economy.
  • It helps to identify potential sectors and facilities that can be priority points for the deployment of technologies for clean production, eco-innovation and synergistic processes.
  • It allows similar industries to compare their environmental performance with other companies in the sector and to reduce pollution levels and associated costs.
