Our role in EC4MACS

Ø Task 6:      Transport scenarios
Ø Period:      Oct. 2006 – Sep. 2011

Ø Actions
   w 6.1: Update baseline transport projections
   w 6.2: Alternative scenarios proposed by the Commission/stakeholders
   w 6.3: Evaluate options, including uncertainty characterisation

Ø Deliverables
   w 6.1 Interim baseline transport projection (2007)

TREMOVE Model

Ø TREMOVE is a policy assessment model, designed to study the effects of
  different transport and environment policies on the emissions of the
  transport sector and was developed for Auto­Oil II Programme
Ø Objective: Make available to the European Commission services a
  transport model
   w that is applied for environmental and economic analysis, up to 2020
   w of different policies and measures to reduce the atmospheric
      emissions (incl. greenhouse gases)
   w from all modes of transport (road, rail, aviation, maritime and inland
      waterways)
   w in the enlarged European Union

Ø LAT is only a user and (so far), not a developer of TREMOVE

TREMOVE Development ­ TREMOVE II – Lot 3 (KUL)

Ø Task 3.1 ­ Calibration of the TREMOVE model
   w Integrate of the most recent emission factors available at EU level
     (COPERT IV – ARTEMIS)
   w Validation of the data set of the model against the national statistics
     and forecasts used for NEC
       • Co­operation with IIASA
       • Meetings with Member States, to complement and detail the data
         and assumptions
       • Adaptation of the model to the extent that it contributes to the
         validity of the model and does not hamper its internal consistency.
   w Revision of the baseline scenario fully consistent with the NEC
     Baseline + variant based on alternative national projections.
Ø Task 3.2 ­ Simulation of 60 policy packages
   w Euro 5, Maritime, CO2+Cars (on­going), etc.
Ø End of contract: 9/11/2006
TREMOVE III – Lot 1 (TML)

Ø Develop source code & software structure (model speed, user interface)
Ø Follow­up of “TRENDS­2” project (COPERT IV non­road modes, IPTS)
Ø Allow easily introducing transport baseline data from alternative sources
Ø Improve the dataset (best available level of detail and data quality)
Ø Extension of the scope of TREMOVE to EU­27, CR, TU
Ø Improve the structure of the model, so that behavioural responses are
  better reproduced in all modes.
Ø Take into account the conclusions of independent model review
Ø Organise ad­hoc seminars with the most relevant experts
Ø Draft list of improvements:
    w Enable new modal substitutions / Endogeneous load factor and occupancy
        rates for all modes

TREMOVE III – Review (MNP)

Ø Independent and scientific review of TREMOVE
   w MNP, IEEP, IIASA, BIO
   w Assessment
      • Check to what extent the structure of each module of TREMOVE
        provides a scientifically credible representation of the reality.
      • Define the limitations and the implied system boundaries and
        explain to what extent may these restrict the validity of the
        conclusions and policy advice
   w Recommendations for improvements:
      • Short term: to be implemented by TML before March 2007
      • Medium/long term: prepare further framework for model
        maintenance and improvement, after March 2007
EU Vehicle Database

Ø Low quality current data on vehicle stock
   w Information about general aggregate categories only
   w little consistent information on age and technology distribution
   w very little information is available as regards disaggregated activity data.
Ø Objectives:
   w Build a consistent and accurate database providing detailed information on
     the stock of vehicles at country or regional level, minimum each year 2000­
     2005
   w Cover the requirements of TREMOVE, TERM and COPERT.
   w Define a methodology for the further regular update of the database.
Ø Scope:
   w Al least TREMOVE 3 countries (EU27+4)
   w All modes, as well as non­road mobile machinery
   w Focus on road transport vehicle

COPERT

Ø Copert is a methodology and a software tool to calculate emissions from
  road transport
Ø Its development has been supported by the European Environment
  Agency
Ø Input for methodology updates have been several European projects in
  the area of emissions. The most well known have been:
   w   The Corinair activity
   w   The MEET/Cost 319 projects
   w   The Artemis/Particulates cluster
   w   JRC/CONCAWE activities on fuel evaporation
   w   The UNECE Task Force on Emission Inventories
Ø LAT has been the main developer over the recent years but Copert is
  considered a collective development of many individuals/organizations

Further Development of TREMOVE/TRENDS/COPERT

Ø TREMOVE: v2.5 finalized on 9/3, covering EU27+4 up to 2030, including
  Copert 4 emission functions

Ø TRENDS: Call (6/2006) from JRC/IPTS focusing mainly on emission
  factors for non­road modes (won by TRT Milan)

Ø COPERT: Continuous funding from EEA/ETC ACC enough to support
  development on the methodological and software fronts

Ø Currently TREMOVE is supported by DG ENV, Copert by EEA and TRENDS
  by EUROSTAT and JRC

Ø There is discussion to transfer all responsibility for further development
  to JRC (IPTS/IES)

Ø Future development plans to be decided in the months to come
Linkages and interfaces

Ø These have been already historically developed and will be
  further enhanced in this project
