Environment protection requires collecting, treating and managing information usually out of the scope of traditional industrial activities. CITEPA carries out studies under contract for public and private organisms, in order to provide them with relevant information and to propose well suited solutions.

Assessments achieved by CITEPA concern many different subjects such as :

• Emission into the air : CITEPA plays the role of National Reference Centre (see references).
• Sector assessments (impact of a policy, market study, diagnostic COV, etc...) (see references)
• Emission reduction strategy with policy, economy and technology aspects (see references).
• Management of the transboundary air pollution forum.
