• Structure of project
• Results

3
gt Main shortcomings

• Methodology
• Data flow
• QA / QC
• Softver tools
• Support
• Cost-benefit

4
gt Overall objective

• Overall objective of the project was to establish
  National Emission Inventory System (NEIS) that
  will
• facilitate development, implementation and
  evaluation of environmental policy at different
  national and sectorial levels,
• ensure timely reporting of emission inventories
  in accordance with national and international
  requirements and commitments, and
• strengthen capacities of stakeholders in the
  decision-making process by providing complete,
  transparent and consistent environmental
  information.

5
gt Specific objectives (1)

• By-law on Cadastre of Emissions to Environment
  (KEO)
• New software tools (Internet technology)
• Guidelines documents
• Access to data by public (web site)

6
gt Specific objectives (2)

• Improvements in sectorial data collection and
  management
• Establishment of central emission database
  (CollectER)
• Regular reporting to UNFCCC and CLRTAP (ReportER)
  
• Use of specific software tools (EstimatER-i)

7
gt Specific objectives (3)

• Establishment of QA/QC system
• Communication with stakeholders
• Transfer of knowledge and good practice
• Training of users

8
gt Structure of project main components

• Revision and upgrading of KEO system
• Improvement of sectorial data collection and
  management system
• Establishment of central inventory database
• Established tools for reporting on different
  purposes
• Coordination activities and information exchange
• Quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC)
  preparatory work
• Implementation of National Emission Inventry
  System (further as NEIS)

9
gt Reconstruction of KEO - results

1. Analysis of existing system
2. International commitments and guidelines
3. Analysis of good practice (Slovakia, Greece, the
   Netherlands)
4. KEO reconstruction plan
5. Workshops (3)
6. Drafting of By-law
7. New KEO software (Internet technology)

10
gt Sectorial improvements results

2. Putting CollectER-a in function
3. Preparation of database for 2002

12
gt Reporting tools results

1. Installation and training
2. Putting ReportER in function
3. Web site
4. Improvement of EMEP grid

13
gt Preparatory activities for QA/QC results

1. Analysis of international good practice
   (UNFCCC/IPCC Good Practice Guidance, the
   Netherlands)
2. Preparation of QA/QC guidelines document

14
gt Implementation

1. Preparation of National Inventory Report-a i
   CRF-a (UNFCCC)
2. In-country review (09/2004)
3. Preparation od air emission inventory (2000.,
   2001., 2002.-CollectER)
4. Testing od KEO software
