Questions to be answered Ø Available tools for EC4MACS Ø Use for policy analysis Ø Extensions foreseen in the coming years, additional insights Ø Which linkages to other aspects (outside the own modelling domain) could be of relevance? Ø Critical interfaces with other models Ø Questions
Our role in EC4MACS Ø Task 6: Transport scenarios Ø Period: Oct. 2006 – Sep. 2011 Ø Actions w 6.1: Update baseline transport projections w 6.2: Alternative scenarios proposed by the Commission/stakeholders w 6.3: Evaluate options, including uncertainty characterisation Ø Deliverables w 6.1 Interim baseline transport projection (2007) w 6.2 Interim assessment of alternative transport scenarios (2008) w 6.3 Final baseline transport projection (2009) w 6.4 Final policy scenarios (20102011)
TREMOVE Model Ø TREMOVE is a policy assessment model, designed to study the effects of different transport and environment policies on the emissions of the transport sector and was developed for AutoOil II Programme Ø Objective: Make available to the European Commission services a transport model w that is applied for environmental and economic analysis, up to 2020 w of different policies and measures to reduce the atmospheric emissions (incl. greenhouse gases) w from all modes of transport (road, rail, aviation, maritime and inland waterways) w in the enlarged European Union Ø LAT is only a user and (so far), not a developer of TREMOVE
TREMOVE Developments TREMOVE 2 Lot 3 (KUL) TREMOVE III Lot 1 (TML) TREMOVE III Lot 2 (LAT) TREMOVE Review (MNP/IEEP/IIASA/BIO) Car choice / taxation (IEEP) EU Vehicles Database Further framework for model maintenance and improvement
TREMOVE Development TREMOVE II – Lot 3 (KUL) Ø Task 3.1 Calibration of the TREMOVE model w Integrate of the most recent emission factors available at EU level (COPERT IV – ARTEMIS) w Validation of the data set of the model against the national statistics and forecasts used for NEC • Cooperation with IIASA • Meetings with Member States, to complement and detail the data and assumptions • Adaptation of the model to the extent that it contributes to the validity of the model and does not hamper its internal consistency. w Revision of the baseline scenario fully consistent with the NEC Baseline + variant based on alternative national projections. Ø Task 3.2 Simulation of 60 policy packages w Euro 5, Maritime, CO2+Cars (ongoing), etc. Ø End of contract: 9/11/2006
