1.A.3.b vi-vii - Road Transport: Automobile Tyre and Brake Wear and Road Abrasion

This overview chapter provides information on emissions from automobile tyre and brake wear & road abrasion are reported reported in NFR sub-categories 1.A.3.b vi and 1.A.3.b vii. These sub-categories are important sources for a) particle emissions and b) emissions of heavy metals, POPs etc. included in these particles.

Specific mileage data for all different types of road vehicles are generated within TREMOD ¹⁾. The following table provides an overview of annual mileages.

Please see sub-category chapters 1.A.3.b vi - Automobile Tyre and Brake Wear and 1.A.3.b vii - Automobile Road Abrasion .

Recalculations were carried out due to a fundamental revision of the TREMOD software.

For changes in the emission factors applied, please refer to the sub-ordinate chapters on tyre and brake wear and road abrasion.

Emission estimates

Besides the routine revision of the TREMOD model, no specific improvements are planned.
