1 Clean Air for Europe TFIAM Conference Small scale combustion installation AMIENS May 2004 André Zuber & Michel Sponar European Commission TFIAM Conference Small scale combustion installation AMIENS May 2004 André Zuber & Michel Sponar European Commission

2 Clean Air for Europe SCI’s : a complex reality l l Definition: all installations not covered by LCP and IPPC directive meaning all installations < 50MW not regulated at EU level l l Includes different: m Sectors: residential, commercial, industrial m Technologies/Fuels: gas, oil, coal, wood.. l l Country specific situations l l According to preliminary baseline, SCI’s = important source of emission

3 Clean Air for Europe Actions in CAFE 1. 1. Development of the baseline: IIASA 2. 2. JRC research: improvement in the knowledge of emission factors: analysis of the emissions of different combination of fuel/technologies 3. 3. Emerging technology in industry: contract with IFARE/UBA Austria, covers industrial SCI’s 4. 4. City Delta: relative importance of SCI’s emission in urban zones 5. 5. Specific contract: AEAT - “ Cost and environmental effectiveness of reducing air pollution for SCI’s”

4 Clean Air for Europe AEAT study

5 Clean Air for Europe Data flows

6 Clean Air for Europe Task 1: Emission inventory Objective: Objective: Compare emissions with other sectors, identify the main contributor in the sector “Measure oriented“ – not academic Method: C Method: Comparison of existing inventories, additional expert consultations Expected output: Analyse of past and projected emissions, priority order for action in sub-sectors

7 Clean Air for Europe Task 2: Existing and planned measures Objective: Objective: Make an inventory of existing and planned measures and analyse/compare their effectiveness Method:, Method: Literature review, stakeholder/expert consultation, analysis of emission trends Expected output: Expected output: Typology of measures, associated costs and emission reduction, identification of effective measures

8 Clean Air for Europe Task 3: Emerging Technologies Objective: Objective: Description of new and emerging technologies (non industrial) and analyse their potential development Method: Method: Basis: RAINS/EGTEI, stakeholder/expert consultation-opinion, literature review Expected output: Expected output: Inventory of emerging technologies, associated costs and emission reduction potential, assessment of penetration

9 Clean Air for Europe Task 4: Feasibility of measures Objective: Objective: Development of practical policy options/measures to reduce emissions from SCI’s Method: Method: Identification with Commission of most promising measures, in depth assessment of costs/effectiveness and feasibility Expected output: Expected output: List of measure to be considered in the thematic strategy

10 0%5%10%15%20% SO2 NOx PM10 NMVOC NH3 2000 1995 1990 Inventories: first results (% of total emissions, source: AEAT)

11 Inventories: first results (PM 2.5, % of total emissions, source: AEAT)

12 Clean Air for Europe Preliminary conclusions from projections/inventories PM10 and PM2.5: Residential biomass and solid fuel burning are the main contributors, significant proportion of the national totals. PM from solid fuel will decrease in the future contrary to biomass SO2: Residential combustion of liquid fuels and solid fuels and commercial/institutional liquid fuel are the main SO2 sources. Strong decrease expected in the future, main drivers: S contents legislation, decrease of solid fuel use

13 Clean Air for Europe Preliminary conclusions from projections/inventories NOx: Residential and commercial natural gas use significant source as well as use of light fuel oil. No significant reduction expected in the future due to increase use of gas and fewer abatement techniques available NH3: Residential biomass and solid fuel burning are main sources but contribution to national total is relatively small NMVOCs: Residential biomass and solid fuels dominates as non-industrial SCI emission sources of NMVOCs. Similar evolution expected then PM due to biomass

14 Clean Air for Europe Potential measures: First ideas Final measures will depend on cost/benefits, feasibility, subsidiarity…. l l Extension of the scope of existing EU legislation: IPPC with development of new BREF’s, and/or LCP below 50 MW l l Ban on use of certain types of fuels in most “sensitive” areas (cities, industrial hot-spots) l l Specific programmes in the structural funds helping for fuel switching and energy efficiency

15 Clean Air for Europe Potential measures: First ideas l l Use of economic instruments (e.g. Acid Rains programmes in the US up to 25 MW, EU CC emission trading up to 20 MW) l l New product standards for new boilers under the new directive on energy efficiency and/or new labelling policies l l New maintenance/inspection obligations l l New fuel standards Thank you for your attention
