TRACCS
Transport data collection supporting the quantitative analysis of
measures relating to transport and climate change
European Commission (DG Clima) project Jan. 2012 – Dec. 2013
“Transport, environment, and climate change…”
TRACCS is …
A reflection of the latest changes in European
transport.
A general update of the historical transport data for
use in the various activity and emission projection
tools and inventories in Europe.
An impact assessment study for the effect of
transport sector on air pollution and climate change,
including also economic impacts.

Emissions by the Transport Sector
Eurostat project Jan. 2013 – Dec. 2013
Background and objectives
Several of the objectives in the white paper for transport (WPT) require detailed information to monitor status and progress
Other activities by DG CLIMA and DG MOVE also require a detailed dataset on which to base policies
Objective of this project:
Enforce the role of Eurostat transport statistics in monitoring climate change and provide complementary methods for assessing the impact of transport in producing CO2 emissions.
Specific targets
Identify available centralised or non-centralised data on transport activity to complement information available at Eurostat
Understand what data and which methods are used by different countries to calculate and dissagregate CO2 emissions from transport
Gradually enhance the availability of transport data at Eurostat
Sectors and sources
Maritime (EMSA, AIS data)
Examine whether data are sufficient to support WPT policies
Road (National authorities, odometer reading, …)
Comparison of CO2 emissions from transport activity data and Eurostat energy statistics
Examine whether data can support WPT policies and other indicators
Aviation (Eurocontrol and Eurostat)
Find synergies between Eurostat and Eurocontrol
