Energy efficiency trends in transport in the EULeonardo ENERGY
After 6 years of regular decrease, the energy consumption of transport in the EU has been rising again since 2013, at the same rate as before the financial crisis. It has become the most energy-consuming end-use sector, responsible for 31% of the final energy consumption in the EU27 in 2019. The energy transition in transport lags far behind the other sectors. However, some countries are performing better than others.
During this webinar, our expert speakers present an evaluation of the energy efficiency trend in the European transport sector since 2000. The following key questions are addressed:
What has been the overall trend in transport energy consumption in the EU and other European countries since 2000?
What are the main drivers for the energy consumption variation in transport, and in particular for the energy savings?

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector –Successful nationa...Leonardo ENERGY
A 100-word narrative abstract. Keep short and concise, this text will be used on the registration landing page and the invitation email.
How can countries reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the transport sector? The shift to a future compatible with the targets of the Paris agreement will require effective policies to address this sore spot of climate policy. This webinar will discuss the characteristics of the transport sector and present two successful examples of national transport policy instruments: The Norwegian policy mix to incentivize e-mobility adoption and the French Bonus Malus system. The policy instruments were analysed as part of the project Bridging European and Local Climate Action (BEACON) sponsored by the German Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety (BMU).
This technical and macro-economic study focuses on light duty vehicles -- cars and vans. It has been advised by a broad group of stakeholders in the move to low-carbon transport, including auto producers, technology suppliers, labour groups, energy providers and environmental groups. The resulting fact-base is anticipated to serve as a reference point for discussions around the low-carbon transition.
The model results show that a shift to low-carbon cars and vans increases spending on vehicle technology, a sector in which Europe excels, therefore generating positive direct employment impacts. This shift will also reduce the total cost of running Europe’s auto fleet, leading to mildly positive economic impacts including indirect employment gains.
The analysis showed that a shift to low-carbon vehicles would increase spending on vehicle technology, therefore generating positive direct employment impacts, but potentially adding €1,000-€1,100 to the capital cost of the average new car in 2020. However, these additional technology costs would be offset by fuel savings of around €400 per year, indicating an effective break-even point for drivers of approximately three
years. At the EU level, the cost of running and maintaining the European car fleet would become €33-35 billion lower each year than in a “do nothing scenario” by 2030, leading to positive economic impacts including indirect employment gains.

Green Vehicles: State of Play and Future OutlookLeonardo ENERGY
Despite substantial progress over the past years, road transport still remains one of the most energy-consuming (30% of total EU consumption) and the highest contributor to pollutant emissions in Europe. As a complement to emission legislation, the EU has set out a strategy for encouraging the development and uptake of green vehicles which have a much lower environmental impact throughout their lifecycles.
This comprehensive strategy was laid down in a 2010 Communication entitled “European strategy on clean and energy efficient vehicles” which identified the main actions to be taken by the European Commission (EC) including regulatory initiatives, support to research & innovation or consumer information measures. Over the years, the identified actions have gradually been implemented and completed by the EC and the 2010 strategy updated.
Europe could improve its growth prospects and create 500,000 to 1.1 million net additional jobs in 2030 through auto sector innovation. Increased technology to cut fuel consumption would allow the EU to reduce its dependence on foreign oil and deliver between €58 and €83 billion a year in fuel savings for the EU economy by 2030. This shift will achieve the double bonus of mitigating climate change and creating a much-needed economic stimulus.
Key findings:
• Jobs are created by increased spending on vehicle technology, but more importantly by a shift in spending away from imported fossil fuels and back towards other areas of the European economy.
• In scenarios in which the Internal Combustion Engine is either optimized or hybridized, the yearly cost of running and replacing the EU car and van fleet is reduced by €36 billion and EU-wide employment increases by 500,000 to 660,000 in 2030. This takes account of jobs lost in the transition, such as in refining.
• In scenarios in which Europe moves rapidly to a fleet of advanced hybrid, battery-electric and fuel-cell vehicles, EU-wide employment increases by 850,000 to 1.1 million in 2030. By 2050, jobs increase by 1.9 million to 2.3 million in all low-carbon scenarios examined.
• The fuel bill for Europe’s car and van fleet is reduced by €58 – 83 billion in 2030 by a shift to low-carbon vehicles, and by €115 – 180 billion in 2050. (excluding taxes and duties)
• While jobs are created and spending on oil imports is reduced in all low-carbon scenarios, CO2 is also cut by between 64 per cent and 97 per cent in 2050. Air quality is significantly improved, with emissions of health-damaging particulates down by 73 – 95 per cent by 2050.
• Demand is reduced for a small fraction of auto sector professions, and some skill shortages also emerge during the transition. The pace of change is likely to allow time for the development of the relevant new skills in Europe, if industry, governments and academic institutions start planning now

These considerations mean that governments inevitably take a broader view when determining road user taxes and those strict efficiency criteria are often not adhered to.

Report: Mind the Gap 2015 – Closing the chasm between test and real-world car...Nicola Barozzi 🚘✔
The system of testing cars to measure fuel economy and CO2 emissions is utterly discredited. This report analyses the gap between test results and real-world performance and finds that it has become a chasm, increasing from 8% in 2001 to 31% in 2012 and 40% in 2014. Without action this gap will grow to nearly 50% by 2020.
Mercedes cars have the biggest average gap between test and real-world performance, with real-world fuel consumption exceeding test results by nearly half. None of the improvement in emissions measured in tests of Opel/Vauxhall cars since 2008 has delivered improvement on the road, and their real-world fuel economy is actually getting worse. Just a fifth of the apparent improvement in emissions from the launch of the Mark 7 VW Golf (Europe’s best-selling car) have been achieved on the road.
This report definitively shows current systems for vehicle testing of fuel economy and CO2 emissions don’t work and the proposed introduction of the new WLTP test seems likely to deliver limited and only temporary improvements. Systematic changes to the way cars are tested, regulated and taxed are needed to ensure cars are decarbonised on the road and not just in laboratories. The technologies to reduce emissions are available – what is missing is a robust policy framework to ensure these are delivered.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

vehicles rely less on fossil fuels?
• How could the tax system respond to declining revenues?

– analyses the revenue implications of potential reductions of fuel consumption in road transport,
under specific technology scenarios
– develops a data-driven simulation tool to track the evolution of tax bases and revenues over time
– investigates potential tax policy responses assuming that the objective is to maintain total tax
revenue associated with road transport

– The tool is kept flexible to allow similar (or extended) analysis to a wider set
of countries and regions. It can be adjusted to handle data sources of different
granularity and varying tax policy questions.
– In-depth analysis for Slovenia
5. First case study: Scenarios for Slovenia
5
Scope:
– Republic of Slovenia (2017-2050) using micro- and administrative data
• In 2016, 14.6% of total tax revenue collected at the central government level in Slovenia came from excise
duties and carbon taxes levied on diesel and gasoline used in road transport
– Three tax bases in the transport sector are considered: fuel use, vehicle stock, distances driven
– Tax policy simulations:
• Baseline: current fuel and carbon taxes, vehicle taxes, vignettes and tolls in Slovenia
• Tax reform simulations: increasing fuel and carbon taxes, adapting vehicle taxation, extending and improving
distance-based charging
– Main scenario for technology development: IEA “2°C Scenario for Europe”
• Scenario analysis provides a plausible narrative about potential tax base developments; no predictive intent
6. Main findings and policy recommendations (1)
6
Total tax revenues from fuel used in passenger cars in Slovenia would drop by 56% between 2017 and
2050 if demand for cars and car use develops as expected.
(This assumes that fuel-efficiency improves in line with European standards until 2030 and that
alternative fuel technologies account for roughly 60% of new passenger car purchases in 2050 in line
with the IEA 2°C scenario.)
The picture for trucks is different, with a less pronounced drop in fossil fuel use over the 2050 horizon
(due to a slower expected take-up of alternative technologies). Furthermore, Slovenia’s current toll
system for trucks provides an effective means to raise revenue independently of fuel use.
Under current policies, tax revenues from diesel and gasoline use in private
cars are likely to decline substantially in the coming decades in Slovenia.

8. Main findings and policy recommendations (2)
8
Fuel tax revenues from private cars erode gradually over time, which leaves leeway to adapt tax policy.
For example, a relatively modest charge on all kilometres driven on Slovenian motorways that gradually
increases over time can cover the revenue loss from fuel taxes on passenger cars.
Early preparation for tax reform and a gradual implementation will reduce the risk of disruption. It will
also create room for carefully designing policies, tailoring communication and developing the necessary
accompanying measures.
Accompanying measures could encourage the development of alternative travel modes, such as public
transport, or take the form of support to those households that are affected disproportionally by the
reform in the short run, but cannot easily adapt to the reform due to budget constraints.
Gradually reforming the tax system, starting now, allows for a smooth adaptation
to technological changes in the vehicle fleet and the timely implementation of
accompanying measures.

(Fuel tax at Italian level; tax revenue in million EUR)
11. Main findings and policy recommendations (3)
11
In the long run, revenues can be sustained by gradually increasing fuel or carbon taxes (to cover the external
costs closely related with fossil fuel use) and by phasing-in distance-based charges for cars (to reflect
external costs closely related with distances driven).
An efficient distance-based system for passenger cars would provide a direct link to the amount of kilometres
driven, instead of charging an all-you-can-drive access to the road network via the current vignette.
The existing distance-based charging systems for trucks could raise revenue and manage external costs
(congestion, air and noise pollution) more efficiently by differentiating rates by time and place.
Revenue raising is only one objective of a fair and efficient road transport tax policy.
– Efficiency considerations imply aligning tax rates with external costs closely related to vehicle, fuel use and road use.
– Options for tax reform outside the road sector may further improve the efficiency of the overall tax system.
Shifting from taxes on fuels to taxes on distances driven can contribute to more
sustainable tax policy over the long term, improving environmental and mobility
outcomes at the same time.
