Book excerpt: In order to assess the contribution of the White Paper it is important to define the baseline scenario that will provide the benchmark against which we will measure the contribution of the interventions. For the needs of the White Paper evaluation this includes: A description of how the problem and its underlying causes - as identified at the time of the adoption of the White Paper - as expected to evolve in the case of no policy action. A definition of the expected evolution of the relevant parameters of the transport system that reflects the key objectives of the White Paper. This presents in quantitative terms (or when not possible in qualitative terms) the baseline scenario, namely what would have happened if the policies and measures that are deemed to be the result of the White Paper were not in place. For the purposes of this exercise we have used a combination of desk research and modelling. More specifically: We analysed the Impact Assessment study that supported the development of the 2011 White Paper (European Commission, 2011a). We focused on the description of the problem, its underlying root causes and the expected evolution under the 'no policy change' scenario. Where relevant, we have incorporated input from the White Paper Impact Assessment (European Commission, 2011b). The analysis is presented in Section A of this Annex where we present in qualitative terms the main aspects of the Baseline scenario. We have then used the PRIMES-TREMOVE model to quantify the baseline and the Alternative scenarios. The quantitative analysis involves a number of key indicators covering economic, environmental and social aspects of the operation of the transport system and reflects the objectives of the White Paper. In Section B of the present Annex we provide an overview of the key results of the runs of the model for the two scenarios. Finally, as part of a quality check of the results of the baseline scenario, we carry out a comparison between the baseline scenario and the No policy change1 scenario (as presented in the IA study of the White Paper) and we identify areas where there are deviations between the two scenarios.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EU Commission has set the goal of facilitating a competitive transport system, increasing mobility and supporting growth while simultaneously reaching a target of 60 per cent emissions reductions by 2050. In light of past performance and estimated development, the target will not be reached without further behavioural change in the transport sector. This interdisciplinary book examines how such a behavioural shift can be achieved by various organizational and legal means, focusing primarily on the European Union and its specific policies related to greening transport.

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overall goal set out in the 2011 White Paper for Transport is to reduce GHG emissions from transport (including international aviation but excluding international shipping) by 2050 to a level that is 60 % below that of 1990. This includes the milestone for 2030 of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from transport by 20 % compared with 2008 levels. Similarly, emissions from international shipping are to be reduced by 40 % from 2005 levels by 2050. It is to be noted that the White Paper does not assume a linear trajectory of emission reductions, but expects increased decarbonisation efforts after 2030, with cleaner and more efficient technology becoming gradually more widespread. Applying these shares to EEA data1 for EU27, the goals to be reached are:  761.6 Mton CO2 equivalent emissions from transport (including international aviation but excluding international shipping) at 2030;  290.6 Mton CO2 equivalent emissions from transport (including international aviation but excluding international shipping) at 2050;  92 Mton CO2 equivalent emissions from international shipping at 2050. EEA data show that in 2018 CO2 emissions from transport in EU27 (including international aviation but excluding international shipping) were still 32% above 1990 levels and that to meet the 60% greenhouse gas emission reduction target of the 2011 Transport White Paper they need to fall by two-thirds by 2050. Nonetheless, despite a decline between 2008 and 2013, GHG emissions from the EU-27 transport sector (including international aviation and excluding international shipping) have been increasing since 2014 in the context of a period of low oil prices. The trend in emissions is in line with transport activity of both passenger and freight, which plateaued between 2007 and 2013 and grew up again from 2014 onwards.

Download or read book Aviation and Climate Change written by Frank Fichert and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-19 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the political, economic and managerial challenges for policy makers and the air transport industry as they face climate change. Based on an overview of the scientific background and technological options for emissions reduction, Aviation and Climate Change provides an in-depth assessment of environmental regulation and management. It provides an up-to-the-minute analysis of the effects of aviation on climate change, and an economic analysis of policies to reduce or eliminate greenhouse gas emissions. The main emphasis of the book is on the economic mechanisms used to lessen emissions – carbon taxes, emissions trading schemes and offset schemes. It pays particular attention to the ways these policies work, and to the interaction between them – for instance, the interaction between taxes and emissions trading schemes. One feature of the book is that it analyses the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) which has been developed by ICAO for international aviation, and which is due to commence operation shortly. The advantages and disadvantages of this controversial scheme are discussed. This book will be of interest to researchers in diverse areas (economics, political science, engineering, natural sciences), to air transport policy makers, and to managers in the aviation industry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This proceedings volume presents current research on transport sector development, with particular emphasis on sustainable transport development, innovation and transport enterprise growth and survival. Derived from the 2016 TranSopot Conference held in Sopot, Poland, this book aims to show the possibilities of maximizing the efficiency of transport, while keeping the negative effects at a sustainable level. Transport is an important field of human activity, both from economic and social points of view. It has been proven that the development of transport contributes to the development of regional, national and international economic relations. Currently, the three most important topics in transportation research are green transport, transport innovations and metropolitan transport. These are the areas in which the contributions presented in this book are focused. Researchers in the field of sustainable transport provide the reader with a comprehensive description of possible activities towards green transport both in the terms of various transport branches and in the supply chain as a whole. This is the framework of the second field of transport research – innovation. The authors present a wide array of a technological, organizational, process and marketing innovation, which allow transport organizers and operators to provide service in a safe, sound and economically favorable way. The analysis of these innovations and the practical implications of their introduction should be a worthwhile experience both for the transport researchers and for the transport business practitioners. Lastly, the book reflects the tendencies of rapid development in urban and metropolitan areas which forces transport policy makers to provide citizens with a comfortable and faster way of commuting that doesn’t result in unacceptable congestion or other negative effects. Different concepts of metropolitan transport management are presented and their effect on the transport systems is also investigated.
