  1. Status Expert Working Group on Emissions from Inland Waterway Engines Informal Legislators-Industry Roundtable Meeting on IWT Marine Engine US-EPA, Ann Arbor, 26 Sept 2006 www.euromot.org

  2. The Experts’ Group • Attendees • EC (DG ENTR, DG TREN, JRC) • CCNR and its Member States • EBU, ESO (Vessel Operators Association) • Euromot, EMA • Objectives • Check feasibility of proposals for further emission reduction • Provide experts knowledge to the 97/68/EC NRMM Technical Review • Consider international rulemaking processes • 2006 Meetings: 13 Feb (Chaired by NL), 1 June (Chaired by Euromot), next on 28 Nov www.euromot.org

  3. Working Programme Schedule as of 13 Feb 2006 “The group agreed to develop by the end of 2006 (a) a proposal for a 2012 emission regulation based on engine internal measures as proposed by the German delegation to the December 2005 CCNR meeting (b) a proposal for a 2016 emission regulation considering aftertreatment options. The proposal shall be subject to review in 2012 The proposals shall include fuel quality requirements and ensure all engine applications onboard vessels are covered (i.e. including auxiliary and generator engines).” www.euromot.org

  4. Emissions Reduction Proposals - New Fleet • About 2012 • Baseline proposal made by CCNR (German Delegation) • Engine internal measures only (in-cylinder, no EGR) • Reductions based on EU Stage IIIA (SV): • NOx+HC: by approx. 25-30% (to 5 - 7 g/kWh) • PM: by approx. 40% (to 0.12 - 0.25 g/kWh) • Agreed only on a target range, no further details discussed so far • About 2016 and beyond • Recognised a demand for further reduction • To cope with maturity and feasibility aspects of technology options any proposal will have to be reviewed well in advance (suggested 2012 or even 2010) www.euromot.org

  5. Emissions Reduction Proposals - Existing Fleet • Long lifetime of engines demands actions equally important to measures on new engines such as: • Better fuel • Demand for low-S qualities addressed to national delegations • EU regulations: IW vessel fuel is not part of the 98/70/EC fuels’ directive review but handled by 2005/33/EC • 2005/33/EC: 2000 ppm S, from 2010 1000 ppm S, review in 2008 (by DG ENV) • Re-engining: National subsidy programs to allow for replacing old engines • Group will support JRC emission inventory review and provide engine/vessel data for River Rhine operations www.euromot.org

  6. Engine Manufacturers’ Key Objectives • One set of European regulations on emissions from inland waterway vessels • Alignment • With international regulations and developments • With technical requirements and regulations for general NRMM (low vol markets and limited resources will require phase-in) • Need low-S fuel fully available well in advance of introductory dates • Specific constraints for marine applications • Simplify and streamline current regulations • Type approval and certification procedures (e.g. mutual recognition EC/CCNR) • Misalignments and inconsistencies (e.g. marine auxiliary < 560 kW in 2004/26/EC) www.euromot.org

  7. Current EU Legislation for Inland Waterway Vessels EU Stage IIIA (from Jan 2007) • Aligned with CCNR Stage II • Mutual recognition of certificates as of April2006 CCNR • Stage I • Stage II (from July 2007) www.euromot.org
