EU - Stationary Engines

Status

Until December 2015, there was no EU regulation covering emissions from stationary engines. A new directive entered into force in December 2015 and sets requirements on the emissions of NO_X, SO_X and PM from stationary engines between 1 MW and 50 MW; this required transposition into national legislation by Member States of the EU. The EU is a signatory to the Gothenburg Protocol, which contains requirements on NO_x emissions from stationary spark ignition engines from 1 MW and compression ignition engines from 5 MW.
