TML investigated emissions from non-road mobile machinery, for which detailed estimates were not yet available. TNO developed a new model based on a bottom-up calculation of the labour of these machines.
On behalf of Aminal and as part of international reporting in Belgium and Flanders, we investigated emissions from non-road mobile machinery in the first half of 2005. We collaborated with the Dutch TNO-MEP for this purpose. Until now, emissions from mobile machinery were one of the few forms of emissions for which no detailed emission estimation was available.
Because of the increasing regulation of other sectors and to comply with European emission reporting, it is important to have reliable figures on emissions from this sector. Mobile machinery generates a significant amount of emissions: depending on the pollutant considered, it accounts for 5 to 20% of road traffic emissions. The agriculture, construction, and industry sectors represent the largest share of mobile machinery emissions.
To arrive at these outputs, TNO built a completely new model that combines the positives of several existing models. The methodology relied on a bottom-up calculation of the amount of labour supplied by mobile machinery. For validation, model structure and full inputs were presented to a number of industry experts.
