Current situation concerning national inventory system in Ukraine

Current situation concerning national inventory
system in Ukraine

• 1. Previous national inventories
• Up to date 3 national inventories were prepared
  and presented to the Secretariat of the
  Convention
• 1) 1990 year inventory that was included into the
  First National Communication on Climate Change
• 2) 1990-1998 years inventories that were
  presented to the Secretariat of the Convention in
  2000
• 3) 2001-2002 years inventories that were
  presented to the Secretariat of the Convention in
  2004.
• The methodology was the Tier 1 of the IPCC
  Revised Guidelines (1996).

2. Detailed inventories in separate sectors of
economy.

• The detailed inventories were made in a few
  sectors of Ukrainian economy such as electricity
  generation, district heating systems, coal mines
  methane, cement production, solid waste sector.
• For the inventory in electricity generation,
  state and industry level statistical reporting
  forms were used. Based on these sources, detailed
  data on fuel consumption by types were used for
  calculation of some national emission factors.
  National factors of CO2 emission were determined
  for 3 basic types of coal that is used in coal
  power stations in Ukraine and emissions in this
  sector were determined for 1990 and 1999.
• The coal mine methane inventory was based on
  actual measurement data (Tier 3 approach).
  Several emission factors were determined.
• In other sectors (district heating systems,
  cement production, solid waste), national
  emission factors and methodologies adapted to
  Ukrainian conditions were developed. As a result
  we have local emission factors and requirements
  to improve the national statistical reporting.

3. Inventory of 1990-2003

• Preparation of the next inventory started in the
  end of 2004. The inventory is being prepared by
  Ukrainian Scientific Research Institute of
  Hydrometeorology, subordinated to the Ministry of
  Environmental Protection of Ukraine. The
  inventory will include the data on emissions in
  2003 and missing data on emissions in 1999 and
  2000. Also it includes recalculation of the
  previous data on emissions in 1990-1998 and
  presents them in common reporting format.
• Calculation is conducted at Tier 1 level of
  detail. However, in compliance with the COP-8
  guidelines, this inventory is planned to cover
  all sectors including forestry, include
  recalculations for the full time series starting
  from the base year, provide description of data
  sources and calculation methods, start using
  quality assurance and quality control procedures.

4. Resources for national inventory system

• In Ukraine there are several qualified experts on
  GHG inventory system and currently more people
  are being trained.
• TACIS-project the European Commission helps
  Ukraine and provides necessary technical support
  of the process of meeting commitments under the
  UNFCCC.
• Necessary data for national inventory system can
  be obtained from state and industry level
  statistical forms.

5. Plans of the future actions on national GHG
inventory system

• The plan on establishing national inventory
  system is a part and the first item of the
  national plan of measures for implementation of
  the Kyoto Protocol and UNFCCC provisions. This
  plan was approved by the Interagency Commission
  on Climate Change in the end of 2004.
• The elements of the plan are
• 1) preparation of draft resolution of the Cabinet
  of Ministers of Ukraine concerning organizational
  structure, planning, management and holding of
  annual inventory of air emissions and
  sequestration
• 2) bringing state statistical reporting in
  compliance with international requirements on
  accounting of air emissions and sequestration
• 3) developing draft Law of Ukraine "On Making
  Amendments to the Code of Ukraine on
  Administrative Violations and Increasing
  Responsibility of Officials for Authenticity of
  Information about Air Emissions of Greenhouse
  Gases."
• 4) making annual preparation and submitting to
  the Secretariat of the UNFCCC the national
  inventory of GHG emissions
• 5) developing national guidelines for preparing
  the inventory of air emissions and sequestration.

The strategy of the national inventory system
creation includes 2 stages.

• The first stage must be completed in 2005-2006
  and includes
• 1) adding to the inventory absent sectors and
  GHGs
• 2) adding data for all years commencing from the
  base year
• 3) recalculation for the full time series
• 4) using common reporting format for all years
• 5) providing information about international
  transportation
• 6) meeting requirements of the Good Practice
  Guidance for the key sources
• 7) estimation of uncertainty
• 8) fulfilling quality assurance and quality
  control procedures.
• In Ukraine this first stage is in progress and
  includes necessary activities for meeting the
  requirements to Annex I Parties of the UNFCCC.

7
The second stage is planned for 2006-2008 and
includes

• 1) determining the national sectoral emission
  factors and refining sectoral emissions
  distribution
• 2) developing the list of industries and criteria
  for enterprises for monitoring and regulation
  purposes
• 3) forecasting economic development and
  energy/fuel consumption
• 4) developing industry-specific detailed
  reporting formats and collecting GHG emissions
  data from large enterprises
• 5) determining the GHG emission baselines for
  enterprises and preparing distribution of
  emission allowances
• 6) creating the data verification system.
• Apart from increasing the accuracy of the
  national inventory, this second stage will
  provide for reaching GHG emissions limitation
  objectives.
