Detailed Data Comparison Using VIN for Uncertainty Assesment within the CO2 Monitoring Database Established Under Art.8 of Regulation (EC) no.443/2009

report
The European Union has committed itself to a 20% reduction of its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and of 30% in case other major economies make comparable efforts. Transport is one of the main emitting sectors, and the only one that continues to grow substantially. Road transport is responsible for the majority of the overall transport emissions, and the EU strategy to reduce CO2 emissions from light duty vehicles sets out a number of measures to achieve this objective. The main tool of this strategy to reduce CO2 emissions from passenger cars is Regulation (EC) No 443/2009, which was adopted in 2009.
The monitoring system so designed leaves a margin for uncertainty as described in Service Request 5 (SI2.608320) of Framework contract ENV.C3/FRA/2009/0043 (SI2.550571). The report of Service Request 5 indicated that certain errors can only be estimated or removed, if more information is available from each Member State’s monitoring system or if the scope of data to be submitted according to Regulation (EC) No 443/2009 is changed, e.g. by introducing the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
