The Diffuse Emissions Manuals assist governments in estimating emissions from:
- non-industrial activities such as transportation;
- domestic activities such as lawn mowing;
- commercial activities such as baking of bread in small bakeries;
- industrial activities which are not reported because the relevant thresholds are not exceeded or because the industries are exempt from reporting.
The manuals facilitate consistent reporting by jurisdictions. The following twenty-one manuals are available for use by states and territories for estimating diffuse emissions.
Diffuse emissions are also known as aggregated emissions data (AED).
