J. Cofala • Methodology for estimating the control potential and costs for PM emissions in Europe • Costing method, cost components, parameters • Types of data and data sources • Cost curves • Conclusions and further needs
Costing methodology (1) • Annual cost method, 4 % real interest rate, constant prices of 1990 • Cost components: • investment, • fixed O+M, • variable O+M costs • Annual costs calculated per unit of: • Activity level (e.g., EURO/GJ fuel) • Pollutant removed (EURO/kg PM)
Costing methodology (2) • Two types of data: • Common – the same for all countries (e.g., capital investment, fixed O+M costs, demand for labor and electricity) • Country – specific (labor and electricity prices, waste disposal costs, capacity utilization, capacity stock, applicability)
Data sources • Reports of the UN/ECE Task Force on Emission Control Technologies • Reports on BAT for DG ENV in connection with revision of the LCPD • BAT REF documents of the European IPPC Bureau • Reports and databases of other organizations (e.g., CONCAWE, IEA Coal Research) • Auto Oil costing studies • National sources on country – specific parameters
Emission abatement cost curves • Rank available options according to marginal abatement cost • Begin with ‘Current legislation’ emissions and costs • Only measures on top of ‘Current legislation’ will be included • Country-specific applicabilities • Include information on capacity vintages (pre-2000, post-2000) • Retrofits of existing plants possible under certain conditions • No retrofits of mobile sources
Conclusions • Costing methodology and first version of national PM cost curves available • Costs of current legislation on PM emissions in Europe increase from 9 Billion Euro/year in 1990 to more than 50 Billion Euro/year in 2010 (CLE reduces 80 – 95 % of unabated emissions also in 1990) • Input data for costs calculations need review • Open questions (further work needed): • Rules for upgrading controls on existing sources • Rules for inclusion of multi-pollutant technologies (e.g., in transport) in integrated assessment to avoid double counting
