11 EMISSIONS IN BELGIUM Evolution of the emissions from road transport(from 1990, in % - Source: NEC 2017) Nox NMVOC SOX PM2.5 PM10 BC -50% -63% -69% -81% -91% Since 1990, the emissions of most air pollutants has significantly decreased in the transport sector. Emission reduction thanks to implementation of new measures and technologies (fuels with low sulphur content, unleaded petrol, catalytic converters, particulate filters, Euro standards, ) Decrease of PM emissions are linked to the introduction of diesel particulate filters (since Euro 5/6), but the NOx emissions did not decrease as expected (dieselgate). 12
12 Share of ETS and non-ets in air pollutant emissions Origin of the Belgian emissions of air pollutants (Source: NEC 2017) 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 7% 59,4% 43,9% 43,6% 40% 30% 20% 46,4% 18% 0,2% 14,6% 14,6% 39,2% 10% 0% NOx SOx PM2.5 PM10 Black carbon Other non-ets Road Transport Buildings ETS In Belgium, the non-ets sectors are significant contributors to the emissions of air pollutants. Except for SOx, the transport and the residential sectors are two major sources of air pollution (+ 50%). 13
13 100% 90% 80% 70% Emissions of air pollutants in the transport sector Share of fuels in road transport emissions in Belgium (Source: NEC 2017) 60% 50% 40% 30% LPG Gasoline Diesel CNG 20% 10% 0% PM10 emissions PM2.5 emissions NMVOC emissions NOx emissions NH3 emissions Type of engine Mileage km per year While approximately 60% of the vehicles in Belgium are diesel-powered, this fuel technology is the source of more than 90% of particulate matter emissions and of 95% of NOx emissions in the road transport sector. This is linked both to the higher number of kilometers that these vehicles drive every year and to the technology itself. The electrification of the transport sector foreseen in a low-carbon scenario should have a positive on the impact the emissions of air pollutants in Belgium. 14
14 Emissions of air pollutants in the transport sector PM10 Emissions in the transport sector PM2.5 Emissions in the transport sector 21% 39% 16% 29% 40% 55% Tyre and brakes Exhaust Abrasion Tyre and brakes Exhaust Abrasion Emissions of particulate matter in the transport sector aren t only linked to the burning of fossil fuels. Non-exhaust emissions from tyres, brakes and road abrasion are also significant contributors. Technological changes such as switching to electric vehicles will therefore not completely solve the issue of particulate matter emissions in the transport sector. The only way to do this is by decreasing the traffic volume 15
15 KEY MESSAGES Even though air quality has improved over the past years, air pollution still has a significant health and economic impact in Belgium. A large share of the air pollutants emitted in Belgium originate from non-ets sectors. Put together, transport and domestic heating represent more than half of the emissions for most air pollutants. An emission reduction of air pollutants in Belgium through a carbon tax will not have the same impact on the concentrations of all pollutants. There was an important decrease of particulate matter (and BC) emissions due to the introduction of highly efficient diesel particulate filters (since EURO-5/6), but NOx emissions did not decrease as expected (dieselgate). For PM, the relative share of exhaust emissions decreases, the non-exhaust emission share increases The cleanest km, is the km not driven! 16
