Greenhouse Gas Inventories -Scope and PurposetheREDDdesk
The IPCC guidelines for national greenhouse gas inventories were established to help countries produce consistent, transparent, and accurate emissions inventories as required by the UNFCCC. The guidelines provide tiered methodologies of increasing complexity. Tier 1 uses default emission factors while higher tiers use country-specific data. Key categories that make up 95% of emissions should use higher tiers. The guidelines have been updated over time to improve methods and are adopted by the UNFCCC to facilitate comparable inventories.

Accounting for emissions intensity target, Sin Liang Cheah CCXG GF September ...OECD Environment
This document discusses accounting for emissions intensity targets. It defines emissions intensity as greenhouse gas emissions divided by gross domestic product. It recommends reporting both greenhouse gas emissions according to IPCC guidelines and GDP using UN guidelines. It suggests accounting for emissions intensity targets should follow guidelines of environmental integrity, transparency, accuracy, completeness, comparability, consistency, and avoiding double counting. The document notes linkages between accounting for emissions intensity targets and other articles of the Paris Agreement regarding greenhouse gas inventories, internationally transferred mitigation outcomes, accounting for nationally determined contributions, and transparency of climate actions.
CCXG Global Forum October 2018 Breakout Group D by JM. Medina AguilarOECD Environment
Mexico has gone through several iterations of improving its greenhouse gas inventory reporting process over time. Its first Biennial Update Report used IPCC methodology from 1996 but has since developed historic emissions data from 1990 to 2015 using consistent IPCC 2006 methodology. Stakeholder engagement and technical working groups have helped gather better activity data. Key improvements include developing country-specific emission factors, performing key category and uncertainty analyses, and strengthening quality assurance procedures. Mexico's experience with technical expert reviews has helped it identify areas for further enhancing transparency, consistency, and capacity building in its reporting and review processes under the Paris Agreement.
CCXG Global Forum September 2017, BGA Accounting for diverse NDCs: Unpacking ...OECD Environment
This document discusses accounting principles and guidance for tracking progress towards Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. It outlines key principles such as promoting transparency, accuracy and avoiding double counting. It also examines how accounting guidance could clarify and implement these principles for different types of NDCs. Examples given include guidance to avoid double counting of emissions reductions from harvested wood products and clarifying how countries can account for natural disturbances. The document also discusses drawing from existing approaches under the UNFCCC and Kyoto Protocol, and introducing an "accounting balance" to clearly track progress towards NDCs.
This document discusses key steps in preparing and reporting national greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories. It outlines the two-phase inventory process: 1) preparing the inventory by collecting activity data and estimating emissions using tools, and 2) reporting the inventory using specific formats. For Annex I parties, common reporting formats (CRFs) generated by the CRF Reporter are used. The Enhanced Transparency Framework will introduce common reporting tables (CRTs) modeled on CRFs but requiring more detailed data from developing countries. While CRFs provide a technical starting point, transitioning to CRTs may pose new challenges for developing countries requiring institutional and IT resources.
CCXG March 2019 Marcia Rocha Reporting Tables MitigationOECD Environment
This document discusses issues and options for reporting greenhouse gas inventories and tracking progress towards nationally determined contributions under the Paris Agreement. It notes that the recently adopted modalities, procedures and guidelines represent a significant step towards transparency but that further work is needed to develop common reporting tables. Key issues addressed include how countries can report on flexibility used in inventories, avoiding "false zeros," improving the match to guidelines categories, and the machine-readable format. For tracking progress, it notes the diversity of NDCs poses challenges and discusses how to address different target types and timeframes in a consistent yet country-specific manner. The document concludes the new guidelines are an opportunity for parties to better understand reporting requirements and ensure improvement over time.

The document provides an overview of the latest version (2.89) of the IPCC Inventory Software for estimating national greenhouse gas inventories. Version 2.89 implements Tier 1-3 methods from the 2006 IPCC Guidelines and elements of the 2019 Refinement. It also facilitates interoperability with the UNFCCC reporting tool. The software allows subnational reporting, uses of mixed Tiers, and stores inventory data in a single database. Ongoing work includes developing a land representation tool and guidebook. The IPCC TSU provides support to users through documentation, help desk, and annual meetings.
This document discusses MRV (Measurement, Reporting and Verification) systems for soil organic carbon and soil carbon sequestration. It provides an overview of where current MRV systems and guidance are, including the IPCC guidelines, and what is still missing to fully utilize soils in climate mitigation efforts. Specifically, it notes that a clear signal of support from policymakers could help scale up investments in research, pilot projects and adoption of soil health practices. The unique opportunity presented by the Koronivia Joint Work on Agriculture to provide such a conclusion at COP could be a game-changer for soils to be fully considered in NDCs.
Background and outcome of the Expert Meeting on SLCF in May 2018 and possible...ipcc-media
The expert meeting concluded that improved inventories and methodologies for short-lived climate forcers (SLCFs) such as black carbon, methane, and tropospheric ozone precursors are needed to enhance understanding of their climate impacts and inform climate policy. The IPCC is well-positioned to develop globally-applicable guidance on SLCF inventory methodologies. A future work plan proposes aligning existing guidelines, expert meetings on specific sources, and potentially developing a new methodology report during the AR7 cycle to build on findings from the upcoming AR6. The IPCC will decide how to proceed with this work at its 49th Session in May 2019.
CCXG Global Forum October 2018 Breakout Group 3 by Sina WartmannOECD Environment
This document discusses flexibility in reporting progress towards baseline (BAU) mitigation targets under the Paris Agreement. It identifies key information needed for reporting and tracking progress, including specifying the NDC target, national GHG inventories, use of cooperative approaches, and implementation of mitigation actions and projections. Many developing countries still face capacity limitations in providing this information due to unclear targets, outdated inventories, difficulty quantifying actions and aligning with BAU scenarios. The document concludes flexibility is needed to help these countries improve reporting over time while building on discretion already provided in guidelines. It suggests flexibility options to facilitate improvement.
This document summarizes Argentina's climate goals and plans. Argentina's original INDC from 2015 included an unconditional goal of reducing GHG emissions 15% by 2030 from BAU levels and a conditional 30% reduction goal. The updated NDC from 2016 changed to an unconditional fixed target of not exceeding 483 MtCO2eq by 2030 due to new data, administration changes, and a desire for more clarity. It also motivated the development of national action plans covering 93% of the NDC goals through 2030 mitigation measures and 10 provincial plans. Updates to the NDC are planned every 5 years starting in 2020.

1) The document discusses Argentina's updated NDC submitted in November 2016, which changed from an unconditional emissions reduction goal to a fixed emissions target of 483 Mt CO2eq by 2030.
2) Key reasons for the change included a new administration in Argentina, availability of new data and methods, and increasing ambition and transparency.
3) Updating the NDC every 5 years as planned in 2020 will require clear understanding of accounting and ensuring assumptions, measures, and long term scenarios support the NDC goals.
The document discusses national greenhouse gas inventories and the 2006 IPCC Guidelines. It provides an overview of what national GHG inventories are, why they are important for scientific understanding and policymaking, and how they are estimated using activity data and emission factors. It describes the DPSIR framework and explains why inventory guidelines are needed, how they have evolved over time through various IPCC reports to ensure credible, transparent estimates. The guidelines aim to produce good practice inventories that reduce uncertainties and support policy goals.

6. Details inventory cycle – UNFCCC
In 1999 the COP decided that:
•All Annex I Parties‘Common Reporting Format’
annually, using the
were required to report an inventory
•The reviews were also strengthened and had to team of
be
conducted under the collective responsibility of a
experts nominated by Parties and coordinated by the
UNFCCC secretariat.
For the two-year trial period (2000–01) the new review procedures were
voluntary but from 2003 they became mandatory.
Annex I must use ‘Revised 1996 IPCC guidelines’ and are also
encouraged to apply IPCC’s ‘Good practice guidance and uncertainty
management in national GHG inventories’
7. Details inventory cycle – UNFCCC
Non-Annex I Parties should use the ‘Revised 1996 IPCC
guidelines’ and are also encouraged to apply IPCC’s
‘Good practice guidance and uncertainty management in
national GHG inventories’ – and should include an
analysis of key sources along with estimates of
uncertainties.
Countries should provide estimates on a gas-by-gas
basis for carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous
oxide, though they are also encouraged to provide
information on fluorinated gases as well as on precursor
gases such as carbon monoxide, non-methane volatile
compounds, and other oxides of nitrogen. They can also
include other gases not controlled by the Montreal
Protocol, such as oxides of sulphur.

9. IPCC Guidelines and Guidance
Inventory agencies, when preparing the national greenhouse gas inventory for the LULUCF Sector for annual
reporting under the UNFCCC, should follow steps:
1. Use the approaches in Chapter 2 (Basis for Consistent Representation of Land Areas), singly or in
combination, to estimate land areas for each land-use category relevant to the country. For each land-use
category, inventory agencies should complement the advice in Chapter 2 with the more detailed guidance in
Chapters 3 and 4 on the preparation of specific emission and removal estimates and, if relevant, the
reporting on the activities under the Kyoto Protocol.
2. Follow the good practice guidance in Chapter 3 (LUCF Sector Good Practice Guidance) to estimate the
emissions and removals of greenhouse gases for each land use, land-use change and pool relevant to the
country. The decision trees in this chapter guide choices of method in terms of tiers. The tier structure used
in the IPCC Guidelines (Tier 1, Tier 2 and Tier 3) is hierarchical, with higher tiers implying increased accuracy
of the method and/or emissions factor and other parameters used in the estimation of the emissions and
removals. Key categories should be identified following the guidance in Chapter 5 and the results taken into
account in the application of the decision trees.
3. If necessary, in some cases, collect additional data (if required to implement a particular tier) to improve
emission factors, other parameters and activity data.
4. Estimate uncertainties at the 95% confidence level, using sectoral advice and the detailed guidance in
Chapter 5.
5. Report the emissions and removals in the reporting tables provided in Chapter 3 Annex 3A.2 taking into
account any modifications by SBSTA15 and any additional information as specified under each category.
6. Implement QA/QC procedures as described in the generic guidance in Chapter 5 and specific advice
under each category, including documentation and archiving of the information used to produce the national
emission and removal estimates.
10. IPCC Guidelines and Guidance
Inventory agencies, when preparing the supplementary information for annual reporting of carbon stock
changes and emissions and removals of greenhouse gas emissions resulting from the activities under Article
3.3 and Article 3.4 of the Kyoto Protocol, should additionally:
7. Assess the extent to which the data assembled for the existing national inventory (following steps 1 to 6
above) can meet the supplementary data requirements set out in the supplementary guidance provided in
Chapter 4 of this report, taking into account national choices on definitions and activities elected under Article
3.4, and the requirements in geographical location.
8. Following this assessment collect or collate any additional information necessary to meet the supplementary
data requirements, using the advice in Chapter 4 and the references it contains to other Chapters.
9. Follow the advice in Chapter 4 on reporting and documentation when providing the supplementary
information in the national inventory report.

16. Inventories are tools……
• To track emissions by sources and
removals by sinks.
• To track progress on the
implementation of policies and
measures to mitigate climate change
(mitigation portafolios).
• That can be used at different scales.
17. Inventories need to be….
• Consistent in their time series.
• Transparent in their estimates.
• Comparable.
• Complete.
• Accurate, not overestimate or
underestimate.
• Spatially consistent at different scales.
• If used for compliance purposes,
conservative in their estimates.
• And constructed in a cost effective way.
18. Inventory linkages with overall
production cycles….
• Inventories are compiled and reported by
categories within sectors.
• Policies and measures aim to reduce
emissions and enhance sinks.
• Ground actors, producers and consumers,
require information about the associated net
emissions related to their activities (overall
cycle emissions and food prints).
• Linking inventories with such information it
will be necessary in the future.
