Introduction – background of the workpackage
1. Legal background
• Large Combustion Plants Directive;• Industrial Emissions Directive;• Energy and Climate policy.
2. Related work done or ongoing• EC Emission Inventories’ reports;
• http://forum.eionet.europa.eu/x_reporting-guidelines/library/lcp_reporting/summary_report/
• EEA Reducing air pollution from electricity generating LCPs; • http://www.eea.europa.eu/publications#c14=&c12=&
c7=en&c9=all&c11=5&b_start=0&c13=electricity • Assessment of extent to which the thermal power sector in Member States and the EU has the
potential to facilitate the necessary transition towards long-term EU energy and climate objectives• Ongoing – expected to produce stable drafts by summer
3. LCP dataflow and cleaning of historical data• 2013 reporting – QA/QCed, in a database by July 2015• 2004-2013 integrated database – October 2015

Introduction – objectives of the task
OBJECTIVES OF THE WORK PACKAGE 2015-20171. Ex-post analysis
• Identify the policy effectiveness of the LCP Directive;• Special focus 2007-2014;• Additional effect of the IPPC processes – BREF 2006;• Modulating effect of the various derogations – NERPs, opt-outs, others;• Other variables and barrier effects.
2. Ex-ante analysis• Effect of IED provisions as minimum requirement;• Additional effect of the revised LCP BREF; • Modulating effect of the various derogations;• Other variables and barrier effects.

Introduction – the meaning of the objectives
1. Methodology• Concrete list of issues that will be analysed – scope and level of detail;• Specific data needs and calculation methods for each of the issues;• Intended to be used for outsiders;• Listing elements which are not possible to tackle due to any constraints and naming of
those;• Includes the identification of adequate stakeholders to consult on the methods (2015)
and in the results (2016-2017)
2. Factsheets with first assessment results• Aiming at testing some of the issues listed in the methodology;• Aiming at understanding levels of detail and type of language to be used in the 2016-
2017 report; • Defining the feasibility of the methods;• Understanding the working methods in terms of layout preparation and provision of
processed data• Enabling a proper peer-review of the methods;• Enabling an easier validation of the methods by the EIONET community.

Introduction – the policy evaluation perspective
1. Key is to include ideas on:
• Other possible means of policy intervention that could reinforce the desired dynamic of the LCP sector – e.g. market based instruments or voluntary schemes
• EU added value brought by the LCP Directive and estimated to be brought by the IED
• Identification of policy-induced changes and non-policy-induced changes in the LCP sector
• Provide good arguments on the usefulness and cost-effectiveness of the Seville process
2. This assessment will not only be a description of past trends and a delivery of numeric prospects

Key evaluation criteria
• Relevance: the extent to which the objectives correspond to needs (within the EU).
• Effectiveness: the extent to which the intervention caused the observed effects and whether or not these effects correspond to the objectives of the intervention.
• Efficiency: an assessment of whether costs associated with the input to an intervention were justified given the effects which have been achieved.
• Coherence: the extent to which a policy intervention complements and supports other policy interventions which may have similar objectives.
• EU added value: the additional value resulting from the EU intervention compared to what could be achieved by Member States at national or regional levels.
Based on draft European Commission evaluation guidance (2013).
