Continued improvements of inventory methodologies: Overview

Background to this project Project scope Project partners and responsibilities Stakeholder consultation Project programme Some key issues for each project task


Guidebook update project: Background

Marta’s presentation provided the European Commission’s background to this project

Two origins: TFEIP management group list of improvement taskso Designed to deliver significant improvementso Reasonable prospect of success at reasonable cost

Two additional tasks seen as a priority by the European Commission

We acknowledge the support and commitment of the European Commission for this project


Guidebook update project: Project scope

Task 1– Small-scale Combustion: Updated emission factors and improved methodologies Update to reflect current technologies and fuel types

Task 2 – Particulate Matter inventory estimates Task 2.1 Condensable vs filterable PM Task 2.2 Non-road mobile machinery

Task 3 – Emission inventory estimates from agriculture Task 3.1 Restructuring and developing new methods (NOx) Task 3.2 Ammonia emissions from fertiliser use Task 3.3 Ammonia emissions from standing crops Task 3.4 Ammonia emissions from biogas

Task 4 – SOx / SO2 and Black Carbon Task 4.1 SO2 and SO3 in SOx emissions; reduced sulphur Task 4.2 Black carbon/Elemental carbon/Organic carbon

Guidebook update project: Consultation and liaison with experts Aim is to maximise opportunities for collaboration and input Circulation of briefings to key consultees Consultation on key issues and data

April 2015 EAGER meeting May 2015 TFEIP meeting

Literature search/review Development of updated methods Development of draft updated Guidebook text

Update to database held by EEA Consultation on draft updated Guidebook text Editing and finalisation of proposed Guidebook update for

consideration by TFEIP For consideration at May 2016 meeting


Guidebook update project: Consultation and liaison with experts

Consultation 1: Key issues and data Feedback will be co-ordinated via Expert Panel co-chairs and task leaders Opportunity to discuss issues in Expert Panel meetings (Session 3)

Task 1– Small-scale Combustion Combustion & Industry Expert Panel

Task 2 – Particulate Matter inventory estimates Task 2.1 Condensable vs filterable PM Combustion & Industry EP Task 2.2 Non-road mobile machinery Combustion & Industry EP

Transport EP Task 3 – Emission inventory estimates from agriculture

Agriculture and Nature EP

Task 4 – SOx / SO2 and Black Carbon Combustion & Industry Expert Panel


Guidebook update project: Consultation and liaison with experts

Consultation 1: key issues and data How to contribute to this consultation

By contributing to Expert Panel discussions in Session 3 By email to Expert Panel co-chairs up to 5 June 2015 By discussing and sharing your views with Task Leaders during TFEIP By email to Task Leaders up to 5 June 2015

Consultation 2: draft updated Guidebook text Scheduled for November/December 2015 Feedback will be needed to enable editing and completion early 2016

Guidebook update project: Key issues

Task 1– Small-scale Combustion The suitability of the proposed approach:

o Step 1. Review and assess existing guidebook chaptero Step 2. Typify and define the missing technology/fuel combinations o Step 3. Literature review and compilation of factorso Step 4. Assess activity data needs and Tier 3 Approacho Step 5. Update of guidebook chapter

What key technologies/fuel combinations are currently omitted from the guidebook; and which of the existing definitions require further review?

What additional reference sources should be included? What approaches to addressing activity data disaggregation are

consultees aware of?



Task 2.1: PM (Condensable vs Filterable) Emission Factors Can consultees identify any additional data sources Which countries hold details of PM assumptions used in emissions

inventories? Are there relevant national studies? Which countries might have data to support EFs for condensable PM?

Task 2.2: Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) Can consultees identify any additional data sources Which countries compile detailed NRMM inventories? Which countries might be able to provide data to supports EFs for Tier 0

EFs?



Task 3.1: Restructuring and development of improved methods for agricultural sector Accuracy and completeness of the revised structure. Gaps in the current reporting of NH3 emissions and any relevant data Data and approaches to calculate emissions of NMVOC, NOx, PM. Comments on any proposed methodologies for NMVOC, NOx, PM

Task 3.2: Ammonia emissions from fertiliser use Any data on NH3 emissions following N fertilizer application Approaches to calculating NH3 emissions following N fertilizer

application Views on the findings and the usefulness of the multi-factorial analysis

when available



Task 3.3: Ammonia emissions from standing crops Ammonia emissions from standing crops are determined by the

concentration differences and resistance to transporto Much is known about atmospheric concentrationso Less is known about plant concentrations

Any information on models/measurements to predict net emissions from crops.

Task 3.4: Ammonia emissions from biogas Any data on emissions of NH3 from biogas facilities Comments on the proposed new inventory approach



Task 4.1: SOx / SO2 inventory estimates Is the described approach based on stakeholder engagement and literature

review appropriate? Any specific cases where inventory teams have differentiated SOx and SO2 Opinion and data on the importance of reduced sulphur Any other stakeholders

Task 4.2: Black carbon Is the list of data and information providers comprehensive? Information on the origin of the BC EFs in the Guidebook Are the suggested outputs the most appropriate way of collating new

information for the Guidebook?
