5 Role of EGTEI in emerging technologies Emerging technologies Need to have an assessment of technologies which could get a certain part of application in 2020 and later and to understand what could be their technical efficiency, their costs and the limitation for penetration (natural replacement rate, for instance). Information regarding power plant sectors, steel plants, chemical industry could be very useful. Emerging Technologies are for IIASA of highest priority and the model could be easily updated to add these new techniques. TFIAM Gothenburg 8-9 December 2005

6 Role of EGTEI in emerging technologies Emerging technologies Most important pollutants are PM and NOx and it is less important to focus on NMVOC. Jean Guy Bartaire will set up a meeting with IIASA, EGTEI, the European Commission, IPTS Seville and some industry experts in order to decide what could be done, or what needs to be done and to determine who could support a study of this type.
