Differences of Physical Impacts Pollutant / Noise Emission Transport and Chemical Transformation Impact Pathway Approach – Part 1 Calculation is made twice: with and without project!
Background Concentration of PPM2.5 [µg/m3] Additional Emission of 1000 t PPM2.5 in Egypt
Quantification of Impacts and Costs relation between pressure and impact Concentration Response Function (CRF): Example: Additional Years of Life Lost = 6.5 · 10-5· DPPM2.5 · Population Number of additional Years of Life Lost [YOLL] in Egypt due to 1000 ton emission of PPM2.5 = 748 in the Northern Hemisphere = 53 in Western Europe < 0.5

Quantification of Impacts and Costs Exposure Response Function: Additional Years of Life Lost = 6.5 · 10-5· DSulfate · Population Quantified number of additional Years of Life Lost due to one year operation : 748 YOLL Monetary value40,000 Euro2005per Year of Life Lost 748 YOLL x 40000 €/YOLL = Damage costs per year:29.2 Million Euro2005
Outline EcoSense • EcoSense is designed for carrying out impact assessments • with a consistent standard (ExternE Impact Pathway approach - CRF, monetary values) • with little data requirements (dispersion models, meteorology, receptor data) • for all European countries (incl. extension). • Calculations can be performed on three spatial scales: • Local scale • Regional scale • North hemispheric scale • Only the emission data of the source is needed to perform calculations Coverage of EcoSenseWeb
Regional atmospheric dispersion modelling • Regional modelling with a parameterized EMEP/MSC-West Eulerian dispersion model from MET.NO Source-Receptor (SR)-matrices for EU25 SR-matrix: concentration increment in each grid cell per unit of emission • Intention: estimation of impacts and damages on European scale • More appropriate dispersion models for country scale may exist but EcoSense is designed to make calculations for all European countries. • Ongoing improvement: Coupling of the Eulerian dispersion modell Polyphemus with EcoSenseWeb detailed calculations feasable.
Example regional model: Delta concentraion of Sulfate due to the emission of 1 t SO2 in South-Germany
Local atmospheric dispersion modelling Intention: estimation of impacts and damages close to the emission source (50 km around the source) Example ISC ST (Gaussian) model results for: • Athens area • Stack height: 50m • Stack Temp: 332°K • Emission rate: 2.5g/s • Exit velocity: 1.7m/s • Stack diameter: 2m SO2 annual average Local meteorology needed to perform ISC ST EcoSenseWeb includes a meteorological data generator
Local Modelling: Meteorological data generator Example: Athens • Calculates for a selected point in Europe the specific meteorological data • Input for the local ISC-ST model
Northern hemispheric atmospheric dispersion model Example: Conc. increment due to NOx Emission in N.America Intention: rough estimation of impacts and damages in the northern hemisphere Hemispheric modelling with EMEP/MSC-West Eulerian dispersion model from MET.NO Source-Receptor (SR)-matrices for Emissions in Europe, North America, Far East, Middle East, and Russia. SR-Matrices for Emissions in North African countries. sec. particles (ug/m3)
Further impacts considered in EcoSenseWeb • Loss of biodiversity • due to landuse change • due to acidification and eutrophication • Assessment of external costs of GHG emissions • Marginal damage costs • Marginal abatement costs • Assessment of external costs due to radio nuclide emissions
