Costs, benefits and climate proofing of natural water retention measures (NWRM) ValentinaVilloria – Ömer Ceylan Coordination Workshop Preparation for the WS&D Policy Review and the Blueprint for Europe's Waters 29 June 2011
Methodological and quantitative basis for identifying the financial needs and policy implications at the EU level for NWRM Costs and benefits, and resilience to climate change of NWRM and EU policy and funding instruments to promote no-regret measures Best instruments to create synergies between the EU policy framework and no-regret measures at a river basin level Objectives
Structure the information gathered in the call for evidence and complementary sources • Provide a quantitative estimate of the potential for NWRM at EU level, and aggregated figures for costs and benefits • Analyse the potential implementation barriers or critical success factors for no-regret measures in EU policies, leading to practical recommendations Tasks - overview
Structure the information gathered in the call for evidence and complementary sources • Typology of measures and river basins • Available literature and case studies (e.g., LIFE+, INTERREG, FP6/7 projects) • Metadata Catalogue • Gaps in the information • Metadata Catalogue design (in MS Access and to be compatible with WISE and EU Adaptation Clearinghouse) Task 1
Task 1 – Benefits and Co-benefits Benefits Co- benefits
Provide a quantitative estimate of the potential for NWRM at EU level, and aggregated figures for costs and benefits • Choose a geographically and typologically representative sample of measures • Provide the JRC the main parameters for an EU-wide modelling of NWRM • Provide the JRC with Policy Scenarios (e.g., implementation of one or various measures) • Modelling by JRC (at least three CC vulnerability scenarios) Task 2
Task 2 • Provide a quantitative estimate of the potential for NWRM at EU level, and aggregated figures for costs and benefits • Effectiveness of measures at EU level (flood risk prevention, etc.) • Aggregated costs and benefits • Costs and benefits of no-regret measures (emphasis on co-benefits)
Task 3 • Analyse the implementation barriers or critical success factors for no-regret measures in EU policies • Relevant EU policies and EU funding instruments • Result: Policy recommendations
