EEA work on GHG emission
• Compiles the EU GHG inventory and
reporting under UNFCCC and the Kyoto
Protocol
• Assesses progress towards Kyoto and
2020 targets
• Assesses efficiency of polices and
measures
• Analyse the application and effect of
the EU ETS
• Provides GHG emissions data in useful
formats

Key messages: GHG emission trends
•
•
EU27 per capita emission and per GDP
emissions has decreased 1990-2005.
Variation among countries is large.
EU27 GHG emissions has decreased by 7.9%
1990-2005. Reasons:
•
•
•
•
•
14
Domestic and EU wide polices and measures
Liberalisation of energy market in UK (‘dash-forgas’)
Economic restructuring in the new Member states
The German re-unification
Transport is the only sector on EU level that
has shown large increases in GHG emissions
since 1990
GHG projections
‘Predictions are difficult,
especially of the future’
15
EU-27 emissions are projected to be 10%
below 1990 with all measures in 2010

Key messages GHG projections
•
EU-15 is capable of meeting its Kyoto target with some
margin:
•
•
•
•
•
•

19
IF existing domestic policies and measures fully delivers the
envisaged reductions AND
IF additional policies and measures are rapidly adopted and
implemented AND
IF removals from land use, land-use change and forestry are
accounted AND
IF the planned use of Kyoto mechanisms is fully implemented by
Member States AND
IF some Member States over deliver in line with their projections
to compensate potential gaps by other Member States AND
IF emission reductions currently projected for the year 2010 is
achieved during the whole 5-year commitment period, 2008 until
2012 AND
CLOSE TRACKING IS CRUCIAL
‘From Kyoto through Bali to
Copenhagen’

The challenges
• How to bring US, China and India
onboard?
• How to find a fair split of efforts
between developed and developing
countries
• How to develop the toolbox to curb
emissions
• Time is short

24
A global carbon market..EU vision
• Significant role of the carbon market
already today – should be strenghtened
post-2012. An environmentally more
effective CDM should continue to play a
role
• Carbon market is part of the solution
but not a panacea – needs to be combined
with other tools to further technology
cooperation, financial flows and
investment

Mitigation in developing countries
• Reaching development objectives will be imperative;
mitigation and adaptation
• Reduce growth of emissions asap, and absolute
reductions after 2020
Toolbox:
o No commitments for least
developed countries
o Sustainable development
policies
o Enhanced CDM
o Performance-based funding
o Sectoral approaches
o Quantified emission limits

NAP2 will cut CO2 emissions with ca 7%
compared to 2005/6 EU ETS emissions
EU ETS will contribute with ca 3.4% reduction
for EU15 towards Kyoto targets (if EU ETS data
is fully reflected in GHG inventories and
registries)
All emission reductions by installations under
the EU ETS could, in theory, be achieved by
using CDM and JI credits
More harmonization and transparency is
needed when it comes to the application of the
EU ETS in MS
