Progress • Contribution to EEA main reports (Signals, TERM, fact sheets) • Support EU policies (CC and AP) • Report on GHG trends 1990-99 • Report on Ozone pollution in 2000 • Report on Air Quality in 1999 • Report on Air Emissions 1990-99 • Report on Energy and Environment EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Progress (2) • Towards a Core Set of Indicators for monitoring policy progress • Start with regularly updating fact sheets + ACC + projections • Proposal for CC state/impact indicators • EU FCCC GHG Inventory: complete • EU LRTAP Inventory incomplete EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Progress (3) • Maintain and update software tools (AE-DEM and Copert) • Support UNECE/EMEP (3th edition Guidebook, meetings, software) • Develop IEA framework for SOE2004 and contribute to CAFE and GHG MM baselines EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Conceptual IEA framework ETC-ACC Exogenous EU-15 Other EEA member countries Rest of world baselines baselines baselines harmonisation ETC-ACC baselines energy, transport, agriculture, others • Air Pollution • Emissions • Concentration/ deposition • Impacts • Integration • Costeffectiveness • Environmental effectiveness • Synergies • Climate Change • Emissions GHGs • Concentration GHGs • Impacts EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
IEA framework • Use of EU-wide models • but …. information needed from countries (monitoring data, state of action, review key assumptions) • Contribution to baseline scenarios EU GHG MM and CAFE (implementation failure, Kyoto, post-Kyoto, ...) EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Prospects • Enhanced support Climate Change policies: GHG projections, QA/QC GHG Inventory, State/Impact indicators • Further support Air Pollution policies • Support EEA main reports and Energy EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Prospects (2) • Support CAFE: contribution to baseline scenarios, support Working Groups • Report on Air Pollution in Europe: an integrated analysis of air emissions and air quality trends • Air Quality indicators: broadening scope to health EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Priorities: main policy developments • Kyoto Protocol Implementation • CAFE • Spring Council (SD indicators on a.o. energy, transport, GHG emissions, waste and urban AQ) EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Priorities (2) • Support EU policies • Improve completeness and quality of data • Enhance linkage between air emissions and air quality • Explore cross-benefits between climate change and air pollution EUROPEAN TOPIC CENTRE ON AIR AND CLIMATE CHANGE
