1 Bo Lim UNFCCC CGE Workshop 8-11 April 2003, Mauritius United Nations Development Programme Training Tools for Good Practice Guidance and Uncertainty Management in National GHG Inventories

2 Overview Background Basic Principles Technical Assistance –Training tools –Regional projects –Knowledge network

3 Background IPCC Good Practice Guidance (May, 2000) –NAI Parties encouraged to apply the GPG for inventories –not available when majority of NAI Parties prepared inventories for Initial National Communication –Up to 30 NAI may wish to begin Second National Communications in 2003-04

4 Basic Principles Aims to develop a national inventory strategy for: Identification of key sources is the first step -improving quality of inventory -institutionalizing the inventory process -cost effectiveness

5 Training Tools  Manual and CD-Rom  Source-specific guidance for NAI Parties  Resources  Worked examples of improvement strategy, analysis, reports, etc.  Manual of procedures  QA/QC Checklist  Workshop Presentations

6 Training Manual (1) Step-by-step Approach: I: Planning the inventory work II: Carrying out the actual work III: Documentation and Reporting

7 Training Manual (2) II: Carrying out the actual work:  Using the IPCC and GPG  Focusing on key sources  Choosing methods, EF and AD  QA/QC

8 Training Manual (3) III: Documentation and Reporting  Clarifying what has been done and by whom  Carrying out technical peer review  Identifying barriers  Suggesting actions for longer term improvement  Raising awareness  Identifying training needs

9 Training Manual: Source Specific Guidance Providing practical guidance on:  Which methods to choose?  Which EF and AD to use?  How to develop data, if they are not ready available?  Where to find this information?

10 Next Steps: Training Tools  Approach  Phase I: 100 Annex I and NAI experts  Phase I completed: September 2002  Phase II underway  Timeline  Wide-scale expert review: May 2003  Final draft: June 2003  Disseminate: July 2003  Spanish, French, Russian translations

11 Technical Assistance Regional strategy to improve inventory quality –2 GEF projects in Europe/CIS and West Africa –Technical Advisory Committee Training Tools –Output of regional projects –To be disseminated to all NAI Parties Global Knowledge Network –All project co-ordinators can participate –Backstopped by technical experts

12 UNDP-GEF regional inventory projects Objective –To build capacity to improve the quality of GHG inventories in 26 participating countries Outputs –Inventory quality improved –Institutional framework strengthened –Long-term inventory improvement strategies developed –Regional information exchange network created –National manuals of procedures prepared –2 experts trained per country

13 UNDP-GEF regional inventory projects (2) Europe/CIS –Fugitive emissions from oil and gas (EF) –Solid waste treatment (EF) –Solid waste treatment (AD) –Mobile combustion (AD) West & Francophone Central Africa  Forest and grassland conversion (AD)  Enteric fermentation (EF – ILRI)  Project start-up: May/June 2003

14 NCSU Knowledge Network  Electronic discussion group  130 national project co-ordinators  TAC, international experts, institutions  Website  Link to IPCC Emission Factor Database  National studies, reports  “Library” of resources  Regional projects  Internal: Regional Information Exchange network  Results  NCSU knowledge network
