1 National circumstances and inventories of GHG emissions Mirja Kosonen 30.9.2004 UNFCCC WS, Dublin

2 24.9.20042GHG Inventory Project Outline of the presentation What is relevant for NC? Trends and indicators in practice National system in Finland

3 24.9.20043GHG Inventory Project National circumstances What is relevant for NC ? Stable and changing elements What is the background story ? GHG - inventory information is the basis for reporting Additional analyses country specific EU-countries introduce indicators for monitoring and evaluation

4 24.9.20044GHG Inventory Project National circumstances Trends and indicators in practice General trends (example 1) Driving forces and intensities (example 2 and 3) Policy demonstration (example 4) Inconsistency problems, especially in marginal sectors or emission sources (example 5) There are many ways for exact presentation (example 6) IPCC categories are not transparent, language and interpretation problems

5 24.9.20045GHG Inventory Project Example 1 : Renewable energy sources in Finland, Mtoe (Energy Trends in Finland 2003, Ministry of Trade and Industry)

6 24.9.20046GHG Inventory Project Example 2: Final energy consumption by sector, 1975 =100 (Energy Trends in Finland, Ministry of Trade and Industry)

7 24.9.20047GHG Inventory Project Example 3: Energy intensity, 1975=100 (Energy trends in Finland 2003, Ministry of Trade and Industry)

8 24.9.20048GHG Inventory Project Example 4: Renewable energy sources in electricity generation in Finland,1990 = 100 (Energy Trends in Finland 2003, Ministry of Trade and Industry)

9 24.9.20049GHG Inventory Project Example 5: CO 2 intensity of the service sector

10 24.9.200410GHG Inventory Project Example 6: GHG emissions by source and sector in Finland 2002, Total 81,7 Mt CO 2 ekv.

11 24.9.200411GHG Inventory Project Climate strategy formulation: Government, ministerial working group network in the administration (Ministries: Trade and Industry, Environment, Forestry and Agriculture, Transport and Communications Finance, Foreign Affairs Emission trading and register: Energy Market Authority National System for GHG-inventory and reporting Single National Entity Statistics Finland Other Agencies: Finnish Environment Institute, VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland, Finnish Forest Research Institute, MTT Agrifood Research Finland etc UN/FCCC, Kyoto Protocol EC GHG-monitoring system, Commission, Climate Committee Finnish Climate Strategy preparation and reporting system

12 24.9.200412GHG Inventory Project National system for GHG estimation in Finland

13 24.9.200413GHG Inventory Project National System in Finland General functions Decision in principle of the Government of 30.1.2003, defining the tasks of different authorities in national climate policy Statistics Finland as responsible national entity Agreements with other agencies and institutions, which belong to the national inventory system Project for creating sufficient capacity in Statistics Finland (earlier in the working group of the Ministry of Environment) Transitional arrangements until end 2004

14 24.9.200414GHG Inventory Project National System in Finland Inventory planning Statistics Finland agrees with agencies on annual inventory process and QC/QA procedures Policy and scenario reporting in cooperation with the national climate strategy Documentation of national system and inventory process, including quality management in 2004

15 24.9.200415GHG Inventory Project National System in Finland Inventory preparation Good cooperation between agencies continues Studies on inventory uncertainty (tier 2): -5…+6% Recalculations based on integrated environment-energy data system Connection with emission trading registries expected

16 24.9.200416GHG Inventory Project Quality programme 2004 (general inventory level) ObjectivesActivities The project for the establishment of GHG inventory unit in Statistics Finland Definition and allocation of specific responsibilities in the inventory Agreements on the inventory with the agencies and institutions, which belong to the National inventory system Identification and documentation of Calculation protocols (the actual system for producing the CRF-sectoral inventories) Documentation of National system Identification and documentation of inventory compilation and reporting process Improvement of transparency of the inventory to meet the requirements Documentation of the CRF-sectoral inventories (organisation, work process, methodology, uncertainty estimation, recalculations, quality programme, improvement plan, documentation and archiving) Adoption of the principle of continuous improvement Establishment of National inventory system Familiarisation of the Finnish inventory experts with the international guidelines concerning GHG inventories (and analysis of the gap between the requirements and the actual inventory procedures in Finland) Formation and working of the QA/QC steering group consisting of inventory experts from expert organisations and chaired by QA/QC co-ordinator from Statistics Finland Only general objectives were set in the situation of transitional arrangements until end 2004
