Decarbonization Paths for the Dutch Aviation Sector
Aviation accounts for a significant share of global greenhouse gas emissions. The Dutch aviation sector can be made CO 2 -neutral by 2050 if enough sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) replace fossil jet…
Effects of European emission reductions on air quality in the Netherlands and the associated health effects
Since the 1970s, European policies to improve air quality have resulted in fewer air polluting emissions, in many countries. As a result, levels of ambient concentrations of particulate matter and…
Mobility and electricity in the digital age Public values under tension
One of the domains where digitisation has unmistakably entered a crucial phase is infrastructure, especially those of mobility and electricity. In this report, PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment…
Transport electrification: the effect of recent battery cost reduction on future emission scenarios
Although the rapid fall in the costs of batteries has made electric vehicles (EVs) more affordable and boosted their sales, EVs still account for only a fraction of total car sales. In the last years…
Interaction of consumer preferences and climate policies in the global transition to low-carbon vehicles
Burgeoning demands for mobility and private vehicle ownership undermine global efforts to reduce energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Advanced vehicles powered by low-carbon sources of electricity…
Methods for calculating the emissions of transport in the Netherlands 2018
This report describes the methodologies, emission factors and relevant activity data used to calculate the emissions of environmental pollutants from mobile sources in the Netherlands. The emissions…
Reducing global GHG emissions by replicating successful sector examples: the ‘good practice policies’ scenario
This article shows the potential impact on global greenhous gas (GHG) emissions in 2030, if all countries were to implement sectoral climate policies similar to successful examples already implemented…
Georeferenced information on road infrastructure is essential for spatial planning, socio-economic assessments and environmental impact analyses. However, current publicly available global road maps…
Vehicle emissions and impacts of taxes and incentives in the evolution of past emissions
The analysis presented in this report was framed around two key objectives. The first was to create an inventory of the different vehicle taxation and incentive schemes in place across Europe. The…
Trends in global CO2 and total greenhouse gas emissions: 2017 report
CO 2 emissions and total global greenhouse gas emissions are reported for 2016. Total global greenhouse gas emissions continued to increase by about 0.5% in 2016, reaching 49.3 gigatonnes in CO 2…
