1 Approaches for Cost-effective Reductions of Population Exposure to Fine Particulate Matter in Europe M. Amann, I. Bertok, R. Cabala, J. Cofala, F. Gyarfas, C. Heyes, Z. Klimont, F. Wagner, W. Schöpp

2 General assumptions All calculations for 2020 CAFE baseline scenario “with climate measures” Maximum technically feasible emission reductions (MTFR) as presented to WGTS in November Impact assessment for 1997 meteorology Assumptions on health impact assessment as presented earlier

3 New elements Validation of PM source-receptor relationships Provisional City-Delta results are included, but could be improved Analysis with illustrative assumptions on Euro-V and Euro- VI Baseline costs corrected – no influence on optimization results.

5 Validation of PM CAFE baseline 2020 [μg/m 3 ]

6 City-Delta estimates for 2000 (1) PM2.5, annual mean [μg/m 3 ] *) this initial estimate includes too high PM emissions from ships

7 City-Delta estimates for 2000 (2) PM2.5, annual mean [μg/m 3 ] *) this initial estimate includes too high PM emissions from ships

8 City-Delta estimates for 2000 (3) PM2.5, annual mean [μg/m 3 ] *) this initial estimate includes too high PM emissions from ships

9 City-Delta estimates for 2000 (4) PM2.5, annual mean [μg/m 3 ] *) this initial estimate includes too high PM emissions from ships

12 Costs of current legislation for baseline 2020 Corrected estimates

13 Caveats Limited quality control of the initial results New functional relationships not yet formally documented; validation not fully completed Provisional City-Delta results are included, but could be improved! Uncertainty analysis not yet performed

14 Optimization analyses

15 Uniform limit value for air quality: Bring down PM2.5 everywhere below a AQ limit value Gap closure concept: Reduce PM2.5 levels everywhere by same percentage Maximize total health benefits in Europe for a given European budget constraint, disregarding the location of the benefit Three concepts for target setting

16 Option 1: Uniform limit value on air quality EMEP/RAINS quantify: –Primary anthropogenic PM –Secondary inorganic aerosols (including water) EMEP/RAINS miss: –Mineral and Sea-salt from natural sources –Primary organic matter from natural sources –Secondary organic aerosols from natural and anthropogenic sources RAINS + City-Delta address urban background, but not hot spots in street canyons Thus, model can only explain part of observed PM

17 Scope for uniform limit value (1) excl. unknown contributions of SOA + natural primary organic matter *) this initial estimate includes too high PM emissions from ships

18 Scope for uniform limit value (2) excl. unknown contributions of SOA + primary natural organic matter *) this initial estimate includes too high PM emissions from ships

19 Scope for uniform limit value (3) excl. unknown contributions of SOA + primary natural organic matter *) this initial estimate includes too high PM emissions from ships

20 Scope for uniform limit value (4) excl. unknown contributions of SOA + primary natural organic matter *) this initial estimate includes too high PM emissions from ships

21 Uniform limit value on air quality Ambition levels explored Bring annual mean PM2.5 in urban background below –19 / 17 / 16.5 / 16 / 15.5 / 15 μg/m 3 This level includes the fraction modelled by RAINS + assumption on mineral (1/2/3 μg/m 3 ) It does not include unknown contributions of primary natural organic matter + secondary organic aerosols To relate this value to potential hot-spot AQ limit value, add ~ 5 μg/m 3 ? No targets for harbor cities considered for this round of analysis (mistake in dispersion calculations)

22 Costs of the limit value scenarios [billion €/year]

23 Costs of the limit value scenarios assuming implementation of Euro-V/VI

24 Costs of the limit value scenarios assuming NO implementation of Euro-V/VI 15 μg/m 3 is infeasible

25 Option 2: Gap closure Reduce modelled PM2.5 everywhere by the same percentage For these round of calculations: –Explore the range between the impacts from CLE and MTFR including Euro-V/VI 25% / 40% / 50% / 60% / 70% / 75% reductions analyzed With and without Euro-V/VI

26 Effect indicator MTFR from EU25 excluding EURO5/6 Base year exposure (2000/1990) Baseline 2020 (Current legislation) MTFR from EU25 MTFR from EU-25 + shipping MTFR from Europe + shipping No-effect level (critical load/level) Zero exposure Gap concept used for NEC Range of exploratory ambition levels NEC 2010 Definition of “gap closure” used for this round of calculations

27 Costs of the “gap closure” scenarios [billion €/yr]

28 Costs of the “gap closure” scenarios assuming Euro-V/VI, [billion €/yr] 100% is the range between CLE and MTFR incl. Euro-V/VI

29 Costs of the “gap closure” scenarios without Euro-V/VI, [billion €/yr] 100% is the range between CLE and MTFR incl. Euro-V/VI

30 Option 3: Maximize total European health benefits for a given budget Dual optimization problem: Instead of –Minimize total European costs for achieving place-specific environmental targets: optimize for: –Maximize total European health benefits (i.e., gains in life expectancy) for a given budget. No consideration of the place/country where the improvement occurs. Maximal cost-effectiveness, equity needs to be explored Illustrative analysis with pseudo-life expectancy data (calculations include population younger than 30 years) No difference of whether Euro-V/VI is taken or not, but a final analysis should include Euro-V/VI (with cost data) in the optimization

31 Emission control costs vs. years of life lost Illustrative calculations [billion €/yr]

32 Per-capita emission control costs for three selected ambition levels [€/person/yr]

33 Gains in statistical life expectancy for three selected ambition levels [months]

34 Costs for a gained month of life expectancy Illustrative results [€/person/year]

35 Cost-effectiveness of the target setting approaches Emission control costs [billion €/yr] vs. YOLL

36 Conclusions Different target setting rules lead to different distributions of costs and benefits Obvious problems for AQ limit values and for gap closure approaches For PM, a Europe-wide maximization of benefits does not seem to compromise equity in terms of health effects (does probably not hold for ecosystems!) Cost-effectiveness of Euro-V/VI is comparable to that of the more expensive measures for stationary sources, but depends on the chosen ambition level Which further analyses will yield maximum information from the last available round of CAFE?

37 Priorities for further work Sensitivity analysis with national energy projections Analysis of joint optimizations / or co-benefits of PM? Ship emissions Calculations for 2015 ???
