Analysis and comparison of national and EU-wide projections of greenhouse gas emissions Objective: • support of the annual assessing of progress in GHG emission reduction in the EU as a whole Responsibilities within ETC/ACC: • AEA Technology, Oeko-Institute, RIVM, UBA-Berlin
Analysis and comparison of national and EU-wide projections of greenhouse gas emissionsreason why Two approaches for assessing emission projections for the EU: • EU-aggregate national emission projections delivered by Member States • EU-wide emission projections from studies modelling the EU as one region (Sectoral Objectives Study, Blok/de Jager/Hendriks 2001)

Analysis and comparison of national and EU-wide projections of greenhouse gas emissionsComparison by sectors for total GHG for EU15 in 2010 Emissions assessed by EU Member States or by EU-wide model study are projected to decline significantly or remain stable. So, what is the more probable message?

Analysis and comparison of national and EU-wide projections of greenhouse gas emissionsObstacles • Policies and measuresuncertain state of implementation; since when, really in effect?Consideration in what scenario? (‚With meas.‘, ‚With additional meas.‘?Less concrete identification in model runs • Sectoral disaggregationvarious sector splits and definitions • driving forces only little detail of energy structures, fuel mix, renewables, cogeneration, etc. in some cases • Framework assumptionspossibly some inconsistency with regard to energy prices, electricity imports/exports
Analysis and comparison of national and EU-wide projections of greenhouse gas emissionsFollow up • More appropriate reporting of emission projections • Further analysis of projections on the basis of more detailed information • Communication of key factors and reasons for differences • Experts network
