Air pollution impacts from carbon capture and storage (CCS)
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) consists of the capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) from power plants and/or CO2-intensive industries such as refineries, cement, iron and steel, its subsequent transport to a storage site, and finally its injection into a suitable underground geological formation for the purposes of permanent storage. It is considered to be one of the medium term 'bridging technologies' in the portfolio of available mitigation actions for stabilising concentrations of atmospheric CO2, the main greenhouse gas (GHG).
Relative gap (over-delivery or shortfall) between greenhouse gas projections based on domestic policies and measures and 2010 targets and additional changes by the use of Kyoto mechanisms for EU-15 Member States
Relative gap (over-delivery or shortfall) between greenhouse gas projections without LULUCF based on domestic policies and measures and 2010 targets for EU-15 Member States, including Kyoto mechanisms
All EU-15 Member States provided projections assuming existing domestic policies and measures
Relative gap (over-delivery or shortfall) between projections and targets for 2010 for acceding and candidate and other EEA countries
The projection for Liechtenstein excludes fluorinated gases.
Relative gap (over-delivery or shortfall) between projections and targets for 2010 for candidate and other EEA countries
Relative gap (over-delivery or shortfall) between projections and targets for 2010 for new Member States
Relative gap (over-delivery or shortfall) between projections and targets for 2010 for new Member States
Projections for Poland consist only of projections for CO2 and N2O
Relative gaps between EU Kyoto and burden-sharing targets and projections for 2010 for EU Member States, EU candidate countries and other EEA member countries
For five Member States (Denmark, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom), the estimated effect of the EU ETS reported separately was re-introduced in the ´with existing measures´ projections
Relative gaps between EU Kyoto and burden sharing targets and projections for 2010 including existing and additional measures, use of Kyoto mechanisms (KM) and use of carbon sinks for EU Member States
This graph shows the projected effects of policies, measures, use of Kyoto mechanisms and carbon sinks by EU Member States on GHG emissions by 2010
Relative gaps (over-delivery or shortfall) between greenhouse gas projections and 2010 targets for EU-15 Member States
For all EU15 Member States projections assume existing and additional domestic policies and measures were available, but for some Member States projections did not change compared to last year's, or updates were taken from NAPs
Relative gaps (over-delivery or shortfall) between greenhouse gas projections and 2010 targets for new Member States
For Estonia, Hungary and Latvia the projections used in last year's report are used as no new data were available
Relative gaps (over-delivery or shortfall) between greenhouse gas projections based on domestic policies and measures and 2010 targets for EU-15 Member States including the effects of Kyoto mechanisms and net emissions and removals from carbon sinks
Relative gaps for Luxembourg are based on information from 2001
Relative gaps (over-delivery or shortfall) between projections and targets for 2010 for acceding and other EEA countries
Relative gaps (over-delivery or shortfall) between projections and targets for 2010 for EU candidate and other EEA countries
Except for Switzerland and Norway, the use of Kyoto mechanisms is not accounted for in this figure
Relative gaps (over-delivery or shortfall) between projections and targets for 2010 for new Member States
Remaining gap (over-delivery or shortfall) in absolute terms including the effects of additional policies and measures, Kyoto mechanisms and carbon sinks
Remaining gap projected for 2010 by the new Member States in absolute terms, including the effects of additional policies and measures as well as carbon sinks
Remaining gap projected for 2010 by the new Member States in absolute terms, including the effects of additional policies and measures as well as carbon sinks

Sectoral trends and projections of EU GHG emissions
Solid lines represent historic emissions up to 2011 and WEM projections from 2011 onwards. Dashed lines represent WAM projections. The gaps observed between the end of historic trends and the start of projected trends are due to the fact that absolute projection data were not calibrated on the latest 2011 GHG proxy inventory data.
