  3. EEA main processes 2013

  4. Recent EEA publications ‘The impact of international shipping on European air quality and climate forcing’ ‘Evaluation of progress under the EU National Emission Ceilings Directive’ ‘Monitoring CO2 emissions from new passenger cars in the EU: summary of data for 2012’ ‘Road user charges (external costs) for heavy goods vehicles (HGV)’ ‘End-user emissions from energy: Reallocation of emissions from energy industries to end-users 2005…-2010’ ‘The contribution of transport to air quality - TERM 2012: Transport indicators tracking progress towards environmental targets in Europe’ ‘Air quality in Europe — 2012 report’ ‘EEA Signals 2013 – Every breath we take’ (short articles covering various aspects related to air quality)

  5. Planned publications ‘Annual NEC Directive status report’ (mid-late May) ‘Annual EU emission inventory report under the LRTAP Convention’ (July) ‘EMEP/EEA Air pollutant emission inventory guidebook’ (mid-year) ‘Potential reduction of emissions from Europe’s LCPs’ (June) ‘A retrospective of predicting the future - projections in hindsight’ (Dec) ‘Revealing the costs of air pollution from industrial facilities in Europe – an update’ (mid-year) EU Greenhouse Gas Inventory to UNFCCC 1990-2011’ (end May) Tracking progress towards Europe’s GHG targets’ (Oct) Proxy EU GHG inventory: 2012 estimates’ (Oct) ‘Data reporting on fluorinated gases’ (Sept) ‘Data reporting on ozone depleting substances’ (Dec)

  6. Publications – Annual NECD status report 2012 Describes the ‘final’ 2010 and ‘provisional’ 2011 emissions data reported at end of 2012 Scheduled for publishing mid-late May

  7. Publications – Annual NECD status report 2012 • 12 MS missed NECD ceilings in 2010; – 7 continued to breach ceilings in 2011 • Germany was the only MS to exceed three of four emission ceilings under the directive in both 2010 and 2011 • Many MS reported ‘NE’s in their inventories. For several MS, a simple estimate of the missing ‘NE’ emission changes their status relative to ceilings: • 2011: Denmark (for NOX and NH3), the Netherlands (NOX), Portugal (NMVOC) and Slovenia (NOX). • 2010: Portugal (NMVOC) and Slovenia (NOX).

  8. Publications – Annual NECD status report 2012 Country Notes: Emission data for Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland are the latest reported data under the LRTAP Convention and are compared with the emission ceilings of the Gothenburg Protocol. Liechtenstein has signed but not yet ratified the protocol. Of the remaining EEA member countries, neither Iceland nor Turkey has yet signed the Gothenburg Protocol.

  9. Planned Eionet and EEA workshops 2013 14thJoint EIONET and TFEIP meeting (14-15 May) Fluorinated GHGs capacity-building workshop (21 May) Technical workshop short lived climate forcers (SLCFs) (Quarter 4) EIONET Air Quality meeting (October) Other workshops (e.g. COPERT training, EIONET meeting on climate) etc. will depend on additional resources becoming available later in the year.

  10. Questionnaire for EIONET participants EEA now regularly undertakes evaluations of all EIONET-related workshops. The main objective is to receive feedback to help strengthen the EEA – Eionet cooperation and improve the effectiveness of the network Please return forms to Silvia Tomasina (EEA)
