Abstract
At its fifth session, the Conference of the Parties (COP) adopted decision 6/CP.5, which established a trial period for the technical review of greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories, covering inventory submissions due in 2000 and 2001 and using the guidelines for the technical review of GHG inventories from Parties included in Annex I to the Convention (Annex I Parties)
(FCCC/CP/1999/7). The COP requested the secretariat to conduct, during the trial period, annual initial checks and an annual synthesis and assessment of GHG inventories for all Annex I Parties, beginning in 2000, and individual reviews of the GHG inventories for a limited number of Annex I Parties. The COP also requested the secretariat to report to the Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI) at its thirteenth session, on progress with the implementation of this decision. This note was prepared in response to the above mandate. It covers the progress, to date, with the technical inventory review, including development of the database required for storage, processing and presentation of the GHG inventory data. The note briefly describes the results of the initial checks and suggests possible approaches to the next stages of the technical review of GHG inventories, namely the synthesis and assessment and individual reviews. Although the figures presented in this note are based on inventory submissions from Annex I Parties received in 2000, they are shown for illustrative purposes only hence the individual Parties concerned are not identified
