Activity and Emissions

TREMOVE: an EU-wide transport model

TREMOVE is a policy assessment model, designed to study the effects of different transport and environment policies on the transport sector. The model estimates for technical and non-technical measures and policies such as road pricing, public transport pricing, emission standards, subsidies for cleaner cars etc., the transport demand, modal shifts, vehicle stock renewal and scrappage decisions as well as the emissions of green house gases, air pollutants and the welfare level.

TREMOVE models both passenger and freight transport. The model covers all inland urban and interurban transport modes - road, rail, water and air transportation. It covers the period 1995-2030. At the moment, input databases are calibrated to feed the model for 31 countries (EU-27 plus Croatia, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey). For more information visit the website http://www.tremove.org/.

In 2008, two projects related to TREMOVE data have been completed. “European Database of Vehicle Stock for the Calculation and Forecast of Pollutant and Greenhouse Gases Emissions with TREMOVE and COPERT” is available on the website http://lat.eng.auth.gr/copert/ in section "data". Information on non-road transport activity data can be found in the web-site of the Ex-Tremis project (EXploring non-road TRansport EMISsions in Europe) http://www.ex-tremis.eu.
