The Directive requires oil refineries to produce fuel with low sulphur content, as a consequence of which installations falling within the scope of the emission trading Directive face increases in emissions of carbon dioxide from installations covered by the emissions trading Directive. The increase in emissions from those installations will occur in parallel to a decrease in CO2 emissions from the transport sector.
Directive 1999/13/ЕС on the limitation of emissions of volatile organic compounds due to the use of organic solvents in certain activities and installations
The Directive sets emission limit values for different activities based on their annual consumption of VOCs for which an integrated permit or an emission trading permit is required. Thermal processing is one of the main methods used for reducing VOCs emissions. The system requires a significant energy input in order to maintain the required operating temperature. This leads to an increase in emissions of carbon dioxide, which has been taken into account during the development of the NAP by providing for a calculative reserve for compulsory measures.
Directive 2001/80/ЕС on the limitation of emissions of certain pollutants into the air from large combustion plants
Compulsory measures related to the compliance with the requirements of Directive 2001/80/ЕС and the norms it sets for maximum permitted norms of emissions to the ambient air from the large combustion installations for a number of pollutants, also lead an to inevitable increase in emissions of carbon dioxide from those installations. This has been taken into account in the process of development of the NAP by providing for a calculative reserve for compulsory measures.
