Assessing the Impact of Abatement Measures: Insights from Case Studies and Methodology Analysis
This study by Frank de Leeuw evaluates the effectiveness of policy measures on reducing emissions, focusing on scenarios and methodology involving LCPs, EURO standards, and pollutants such as SO2, NOx, and NMVOC. The analysis covers different sectors and time periods, showcasing the potential of abatement strategies. Recommendations for future work include enhancing validation, incorporating cost data, and exploring additional directives and local scales.

On the policy effectiveness of abatement measures Frank de Leeuw 11th AQ EIONET 26-27 October 2006, La Rochelle
Testing the methodology on LCPs EURO standards Pilot project (TNO, MNP) policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw
Three scenarios; three years • Reference case • Without abatement • Measures fully implemented Reference years: 1990, 1995, 2003 policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw
Methodology Emission = activity times emission factor Activity data per sector: ESTAT, RAINS EF: RAINS, LCP Directive Pollutants: SO2, NOx, NMVOC policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw
Methodology LOTOS-EUROS model 1990 Unab ref MFR Unab ref MFR 2003 policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw
NOx Road transport & EURO standards policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw

Ozone (annual mean) policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw
Validation? SO2 trend policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw
Validation? policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw
Conclusion • Work in progress but promissing • Better validation • Extend analysis with • CO • Cost data • Impact • Other directives (e.g. solvent) • Explore more local scale (national) policy effectiveness, Frank de Leeuw
