2 D6.2.7 TRANSPHORM Deliverable Table of Contents Executive summary... 2 Presentation to demonstrate and train key users in the capabilities of the HIA Viewer, given at the TRANSPHORM Stakeholders Workshop 3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As a result of delays to develop and finalize the integrated assessment methodology, which have been explained under SP4, the envisaged workshops in task were not been conducted. Instead, the Health Impact Assessment (HIA) Viewer which was developed under SP4, was showcased at the TRANSPHORM Workshop for Stakeholders, held in Brussels on the 6 th May At the workshop a presentation follow by a discussion session was held to demonstrate the capabilities of the HIA Viewer, and to train both members of TRANSPHORM and other end users present at the workshop in its use. This document, deliverable D6.2.7 Notes on workshop to present the capabilities of the integrated health impact assessment tool and training for key staff, provides the demonstration and training presentation given at the workshop. 2

3 Modelling particulate matter at city and European scale Stakeholder meeting 6 th May 2014 Menno Keuken - TNO

4 Outline Background on traffic-related PM Research/policy questions on AQ AQ/HIA-viewer EU results Core cities results Lessons learned

5 Sources of primary and secondary PM

6 Transport-related PM emissions Road traffic NO x (secondary PM) wear/re-suspension black carbon ultrafine particles Airports NO x (secondary PM) ultrafine particles Shipping (inland and sea-going) NO x and SO 2 (secondary PM) black carbon ultrafine particles

7 Policy/research questions in TRANSPHORM What are PM levels in Europe now (2005-8) and in the future (2020)? TRANSPHORM: PM 10, PM 2.5, EC, BaP and PN What are effective measures to comply with PM standards and reduce health effects? TRANSPHORM: EU, urban areas and core cities

8 BaP: 2005 and 2020-BAU (On-line viewer with AQ/HIA: > 1 July 2014)

9 AQ/HIA viewer

10 Core cities in TRANSPHORM

11 Air quality and scenarios in core cities Air quality: within 100 m near motorways; street canyons with more than vehicles/24-h rest of the urban population Scenarios: 10% less traffic kilometres 50% electric private vehicles, Low Emission Zone (75% Euro-4 -> Euro-5/6) Health Impact Assessment: Population weighted mean AQ per city

12 PM 10, PM 2.5, EC, BaP and PN in core cities: modelled versus measured (2008)

13 Helsinki: PM BAU 2020: -10% traffic

14 EC

15 Athens: PM 10, PM 2.5, EC, BaP and PN

16 Lessons learned? Transport-related PM: Both regional & local AQ models agree reasonable Euro-6 improves in particular EC/PN near road traffic Spatial variability AQ: between cities and within cities: (2-3* higher traffic-related PM near road traffic) EC/PN sensitive indicators for traffic scenarios/measures (compared to PM 10, PM 2.5 and BaP) Effective local measures beyond 2020: Integrated approach directed to more physical mobility, less carbon emissions and improve AQ Further research (Horizon 2020): Modelling PN (all transport) and wear (road traffic)? Traffic-related PM in micro-environments (commuting)?
