Emissions of primary particulate matter and secondary particulate matter precursors (CSI 003) - Assessment published Oct 2010: Total emissions of primary PM10 particulate matter have reduced by 21% across the EEA-32 region between 1990 and 2008, driven by a 29% reduction in emissions of the fine particulate matter (PM2.5) fraction; emissions of particulates between 2.5 and 10 µm have risen slightly over the same period. Of this reduction in PM10 emissions, 48% has taken place in the 'Energy Production and Distribution' sector due to the fuel-switching from coal to natural gas for electricity generation and improvements in the performance of pollution abatement equipment installed at industrial facilities.

Emissions of primary particles and secondary particulate matter precursors (CSI 003) - Assessment published Dec 2008: Total emissions of primary particulate matter (PM 10 ) and secondary particulate precursors (nitrogen oxides (NO x ), sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) and ammonia (NH 3 )) have reduced by 44% across the EEA-32 region between 1990 and 2006. Of this reduction, 43% has taken place in the 'energy industries' sector due to the fuel-switching from coal to natural gas for electricity generation and improvements in the performance of pollution abatement equipment installed at industrial facilities. Emissions of primary PM 10 particulate matter make only a small contribution to total particulate matter formation - 13% in 2006. The majority of particulate matter is formed from emissions of the secondary particulate precursors. Of the particulate-forming pollutants, reductions of SO 2 that have taken place since 1990 have accounted for 60% of the overall reduction in particulate emissions, with NO x accounting for a further 30% of the observed reduction. The reduction in emissions of primary particles has accounted for only 6% of the overall reduction.

Emissions of primary particles and secondary particulate matter precursors (CSI 003) - Assessment published Jan 2010: Total emissions of primary particulate matter (PM 10 ) and secondary particulate precursors (nitrogen oxides (NO x ), sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ) and ammonia (NH 3 )) have reduced by 45% across the EEA-32 region between 1990 and 2007. Of this reduction, 41% has taken place in the 'energy industries' sector due to the fuel-switching from coal to natural gas for electricity generation and improvements in the performance of pollution abatement equipment installed at industrial facilities. Emissions of primary PM 10 particulate matter make only a small contribution to total particulate matter formation (12%) in 2007. The majority of particulate matter is formed from emissions of the secondary particulate precursors. Of the particulate-forming pollutants, reductions of SO 2 that have taken place since 1990 have accounted for 60% of the overall reduction in particulate emissions, with NO x accounting for a further 30% of the observed reduction. The reduction in emissions of primary particles has accounted for only 6% of the overall reduction.

Impact of selected policy measures on Europe's air quality: The main objective of the present study is to analyse and quantify the effects that certain past policy measures in the road transport and industrial combustion facilities have had on the magnitude of air pollutant emissions and subsequent air quality in Europe. The policies selected are the Euro emission standards for road vehicles and the EU directives on Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) and large combustion plants (LCP).

Energy-related emissions of particulate matter (ENER 007) - Assessment published Mar 2012: Energy-related emissions of primary particulate matter, PM 10 and PM 2.5 , account for 68% and 81% of total PM 10 and PM 2.5 emissions respectively in the EEA-32 in 2009. These energy related emissions fell by 7% and 10% respectively between 2005 and 2009 and 31% and 35% between 1990 and 2009. The most important reductions were achieved in the energy supply sectors (Energy Industries and Fugitive emissions) as a result of fuel switching from coal and oil to natural gas.
