Recalculations (year 2003)- NECDRecalculations (year 2003)- NECD

Major NOx recalculations occurred in France, Germany and United Kingdom. The total effect in 2003 was 175 Gg, which amounts to about 2% of total EU-25 emissions.

Major VOC recalculations occurred in France, Germany and Sweden. The total effect in 2003 was 235 Gg, which almost amounts to 3% of total EU-25 emissions.

Major SO2 recalculations occurred in Germany and Spain. The total effect in 2003 was minus 32 Gg, which amounts to around 0.5% of total EU-25 emissions.

Major NH3 recalculations occurred in Denmark and Germany. The total effect in 2003 was minus 39 Gg, which amounts to less than 1% of total EU-25 emissions.

21

Consistency, comparability - NECDConsistency, comparability - NECD

NEC Directive does not require provision of emissions in NFR tables, but MS are encouraged to use standardised format as set-up in Guidelines for estimating and reporting emissions (ECE/Eb.Air/GE.1/2007/15)

Formats 12 MS; provided emissions in a comparable and consistent format using

standard excel template (NFR Table 1a),. Emission inventories from the remaining 12 MS were submitted in modified NFR

tables or even a Word file (Hungary). Germany submitted CRF-like trend tables. The reporting of information in non-standard formats greatly increases the difficulties associated with data processing and analysis, automated consistency and completeness tests could be performed only after ETC-ACC transferred these submissions into NFR standard table

Outliers Inconsistent trends, non-comparability between countries (details in Review

report), Other

Austria submitted one NFR template file for both the NECD and LRTAP Convention reporting obligations and mentioned in accompanying documentation that the NECD inventory should not include emissions arising from fuel tourism. Ireland provided 2 versions with and without fuel tourism.

Ireland provided 2 sets of inventories with and without fuel tourism

Remaining challengesRemaining challenges

Data flow (CLRTAP and NECD inventories are not posted /copied in CDR)

Formats – mainly NECD – more than half of MS do not report in standardized NFR format, CLRTAP historical data

Timeliness (delayed reporting by almost 50% of countries)

Completeness (9 countries no CLRTAP submission, missing years or sectoral emissions, cells without numbers or notification keys)

Comparability, consistency (number of countries do not provide full updated time series, outliers in EF, different national totals submitted to NECD, CLRTAP , UNFCCC,…)

Transparency, what is included or not included in national totals, missing or non-transparent IIR

Resubmissions, 15 countries resubmitted CLRTAP inventories

25

ConclusionsConclusions The timeliness and completeness of member states

reporting improved for both CLRTAP and NECD inventories comparing to the previous reporting cycle but still needs improving to meet the requirements

Provision of full recalculated emission trends for countries is crucial for consistent presentation of country and Eionet/EMEP/EU trends

To enable comparison and review of inventories timely submissions and standardised formats are needed

Review of inventories is to be continued We need formalised procedures for gap filling of

reported emissions (assessment, indicators, EC inventories,...)
