Proftest SYKE arranged proficiency test for measurement the gross and the net calorific value, the content of ash, carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, moisture, sulphur and volatile matter in fuels in September 2011. One peat sample and one coal sample were delivered to the laboratories for the analysis of each measurement. In total, 41 laboratories participated in the proficiency test. Additionally, the participants were asked to estimate/calculate the emission factor for both samples. The robust means of the reported results by the participants were used as the assigned values for measurements. The evaluation of performance was based on the z score which was calculated using the standard deviation for proficiency assessment at 95 % confidence level. The total standard deviation for performance assessment was mainly set on the basis of the reproducibility requirements presented the standard methods. The evaluation of performance was not done for the measurement of moisture. In total, 85 % of the participating laboratories reported the satisfactory results. About 71 % of the participants used accredited methods and 86 % of their results were satisfactory. In measurement of the gross calorific value from the peat sample 83 % of the results were satisfactory and respectively in measurement of the coal sample 87 % from the results were satisfactory. In measurement of the net calorific value from the peat sample 90 % of the results were satisfactory and respectively in measurement of the coal sample 96 % from the results were satisfactory.
