Reducing CO2 emissions from
new cars
Equipping power plants to
store CO2 underground
Equipping power plants to store CO2 underground
To cut their CO2 emissions, industrial installations and power plants could in future: USE new technology to capture CO2;STORE it "permanently and safely underground" in geological formations.
300 MILLION will be used to finance 12 commercial demonstration projects by Eu.
If there are storage sites available, if the transport facilities are viable,if it is technically and economically feasible to retrofit the power station for CO2 capture
Conditions
MEMBER STATE'S AUTHORITIES have to guarantee for plants with an output of more than 300 Megawatts a suitable space on the installation site for the equipment necessary to capture and compress CO2.
Reducing CO2 emissions from new cars
PHASING IN - manufacturers will be given interim targets of ensuring that average CO2 emissions of:
LONG TERM TARGET - the compromise introduced a long term target for 2020 for the new car fleet of average emissions of 95 g CO2/km.
65 % In January 2012
75 % In January 2013
80 % In January 2014
100 % From 2015
Fines
Manufacturers will have to pay fines (so called "EXCESS EMISSIONS PREMIUMS"), if their average emissions of CO2 exceed the specific emission target set by the regulation:
FROM 2012 UNTIL 2018
€ 5 1 gram of CO2
€ 15 2 grams of CO2
€ 25 3 grams of CO2
€ 95 4 grams of CO2
FROM 2019
€ 95 for each gram
Advantages
SMALL MANUFACTURERS
producing fewer than 10,000 new registered
cars per year
can apply to the Commission for a
derogation from the specific emissions
target.
LARGE INDIPENDENT CAR
MANUFACTURING
producing 10,000 to 300,000 new registered
cars per year
can apply for an alternative target of
reducing their average specific emissions by
25% from 2007
SPECIAL TARGETS
Each new passenger car with CO2 emissions of less than 50 g CO2/km shall count as:
SUPER CREDITDS
3.5 cars
In 2012 and 2013
2.5 cars
In 2014
1.5 cars
In 2015
1 car From 2016
ITALY
IN ITALY
First experimental
plant in Italy to capture CO2
Reached objectives
In 2009 Italy was the 4TH COUNTRY IN THE WORLD for reduction of CO2 emission (9.3 %).01/3/11 the 1° EXPERIMENTAL PLANT IN ITALY TO CAPTURE CO2
Reached objectives
WHERE? In Italy, near Brindisi.WHEN? It has been inaugurated the 1st march 2011 and it will be activated starting from 2012.
First experimental plant in Italy to capture CO2
It is the 1° IN ITALYIt is the 2° IN EUROPEIt uses the CCS Sistem (Carbon Capture and Storage) It has been built thanks to an agreement with ENI (the Italian National Hydrocarbons Agency) and 100.000 € coming from Europe
Some info
CCS
•Carbon Capture and Storage
MEANING
• CAPTURING and SEPARATING CO2;
• COMPRESSING and TRANSPORTING CO2 from the capture location to an appropriate storage location;
• STORING CO2 into underground reservoirs
• MONITORING the injected CO2 to verify its storage.
