2 The importance of GALILEO for the European
Economy
3- Content of the presentation
- Introduction Transport White paper
- Galileo features and planning
- The market and the GPS position
- System cost versus benefits
- The revenues to the operator
- PPP Joint Undertaking and the concession
- Conclusions
4- White Paper on Transport (EC, Sept. 2001)
- Road transport predominant
- Congestion and Pollution
- Needs from
- enlargement and
- sustainable growth
5- Decouple
- Transport Growth from Economic Growth
- equilibrium between transport modes
- decongestion
- increase safety
- ? Galileo is an enabler
6About GALILEO
- Global Satellite Navigation System (GNSS)
- 30 satellites (world-wide coverage)
- State of the art positioning and timing services
(availability, integrity, guarantee for some
services) - Independent, interoperable with GPS and Glonass
- Joint Initiative EC-ESA initiative

9European dependence on GPS
- GPS hegemony
- No control by Europe
- implementation of European regulations
(transport policy) - Difficult European industry penetration in the
navigation market - Charges for GPS use ?
- GPS service disruption impact large number of
applications
10Economic Cost Benefit Analysis
- Macro economic benefits for the European society
- aviation, maritime, route guidance
- rail, personal communication, agriculture,
environment, etc. - Total benefits in Net Present Value over 20
years around 17 billion - Total cost in Net Present Value over 20 years
3.9 billion - ? Benefit to cost ratio greater than 4

12Public Private Partnership
- Private sector is key for
- commercial orientation (secure revenues)
- management
- financing
- Steps
- The Joint Undertaking for the development phase
- The Concession for the subsequent phases
13Joint Undertaking
MISSION Deployment and Exploitation phase,
management structure and financing of next
phases, local elements, users applications LEGAL
STATUS Joint Undertaking (article 171 EU
Treaty) MEMBERS EC, ESA, (EIB, Private
Sector) DECISION EXPECTED Transport Council,
March 2002

15Conclusions
- Galileo is a must
- Galileo is technically feasible and financially
sound - Galileo will serve Transport Policies ... and
many others - Galileo is the first ambitious program of the
- European Space Strategy
- ? Political approval is expected
