Final evaluation report
Publication metadata
This report presents the findings of an evaluation study contracted by the European Commission on the Directives on Petrol Vapour Recovery (PVR). These are Directive 1994/63/EC on the control of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions resulting from the storage of petrol and its distribution from terminals to service stations (aka VOC-I Directive) and Directive 2009/126/EC on Stage II petrol vapour recovery during refuelling of motor vehicles at service stations (aka VOC-II Directive). The aim of the study was to carry out an evaluation of the two Directives to assess their effectiveness, efficiency, coherence, relevance and EU added value. The study is intended to support the Commission in collecting and assessing evidence to assess the actual performance of the two Directives compared with initial expectations. In addition, the study includes an assessment of the implementation of the two Directives. This assessment also includes the evaluation required under Article 7 of Directive 2009/126/EC. In order to carry out the evaluation, an intervention logic and an analytical framework were developed, including a set of specific evaluation questions. A combination of research methods and analytical tools has been used, including literature review and consultation via a dedicated survey informing both the implementation assessment and the evaluation.
