Copernicus CAMS2_61 Global and European Emission Inventories

Tender description

This ITT, entitled ‘Global and European emission inventories’, is to provide gridded distributions of anthropogenic (global and Europe) and natural emissions (global only) for reactive gases, aerosols and greenhouse gases in direct support of CAMS production chains, with target resolutions of 50 km (natural emissions), 10 km (global) and 5 to 10 km (Europe). Lot 1: This ITT, entitled ‘Global and European emission inventories’, is to provide gridded distributions of anthropogenic (global and Europe) and natural emissions (global only) for reactive gases, aerosols and greenhouse gases in direct support of CAMS production chains, with target resolutions of 50 km (natural emissions), 10 km (global) and 5 to 10 km (Europe). The emissions will include aerosol, reactive gases, and greenhouse gases. They must also be stratified into headline activity sectors, where relevant. The emission data sets shall cover the requirements of both the CAMS reanalyses products and the CAMS near-real-time products, as further specified in the sections below. Besides the yearly totals, the successful Tenderer will deliver monthly, weekly and diurnal temporal profiles, so that variations can be accounted for in the CAMS systems. Improving the representation of the temporal variations of emissions and investigating modelling methodologies to calculate certain emissions as a function of meteorological parameters (including forecasted ones) or of other proxies will be in scope of the developmental aspects of the work as are further development activities to improve the emission data sets. Tenderers should note that the value specified under sections II.1.5) and II.2.6) is the indicative maximum budget for the whole framework contract and Price is one of the evaluation criteria. Please also note the important additional information in section VI.3) regarding funding and eligibility.
