Data are for ozone precursors. The distance to target results are shown in green (countries need to do more to be on track to meet their ceiling in 2010) and purple (countries are on track to meet their ceiling in 2010)

Emissions of ozone precursors (CSI 002) - Assessment published Oct 2010
-
Emissions of all ground-level ozone precursor
pollutants have decreased across the EEA-32 region between 1990 and 2008; nitrogen
oxides (NO X ) by 34%, non-methane volatile organic compounds
(NMVOCs) by 45%, carbon monoxide (CO) by 56% and methane (CH 4 )
by 26%.
This decrease has been achieved mainly as a
result of the introduction of catalytic converters for vehicles. These
changes have significantly reduced emissions of NO X and CO from
the road transport sector, the main source of ozone precursor emissions.
The EU-27 is still some way from meeting its 2010
target to reduce emissions of NO X , one of the two ozone
precursors (NO X and NMVOC) for which emission limits exist
under the EU's NEC Directive (NECD). Whilst total NMVOC emissions in the
EU-27 were below the NECD limit in 2008, a number of individual Member
States anticipate missing their ceilings for one or either of these two
pollutants.
Of the three non-EU countries having emission ceilings set under the
UNECE/CLRTAP Gothenburg protocol (Liechtenstein,
Norway and Switzerland),
all three countries reported NMVOC emissions in 2008 that were lower than their
respective 2010 ceilings. However both Liechtenstein
and Norway
reported NO x emissions in 2008 that were substantially higher than
their respective 2010 ceilings.

Emissions of ozone precursors
-
Emissions of ozone precursors (version 1) (CSI 002) - Assessment published Oct 2005
-
Emissions of ozone-forming gases (ground-level ozone precursors) were reduced by 33% across the EEA member countries between 1990 and 2002, mainly as a result of the introduction of catalysts in new cars.

Emissions of ozone precursors (version 1)
-
Emissions of ozone precursors (version 1) (CSI 002) - Assessment published Mar 2008
-
Aggregated emissions of ozone-forming gases (ground-level ozone precursors - CH 4 , CO, NMVOC and NO x ) were reduced by 38% across the EEA member countries between 1990 and 2005, mainly as a result of the increased use of catalytic converters and to a lesser extent to a switch from petrol cars to diesel cars. Together these changes have significantly reduced emissions of NO x and CO from vehicles, an important source of ozone precursor emissions (Figure 1). Emissions in the EU-15 Member States decreased by 41% since 1990 (Figure 2), from 36 981 kt to 21 760 kt. Between 1990 and 2005 emission of ozone precursors in the new EU-12 Member States declined significantly from 9 136 kt to 5 715 kt, a reduction of 37% (Figure 3). The EU-15 and new EU-12 are unlikely to meet their aggregated 2010 NECD target for the two ozone precursors NO x and NMVOCs.
