1 2006 IPCC Softwre for Ntionl Greenhouse Gs Inventories: Appliction nd use for Indi Presenttion for NGGIP Side Event Bonn, June 8, 2013 Prof. Amit Grg INDIA

2 GHG Inventory Softwre Objectives for Indin inventory preprtion (by IIMA tem) Creting TACCC nd UNFCCC complint GHG inventory for ltest yers Converting ll previous yers inventories into consistent frmework through n pproprite softwre Softwre should be esy to become prt of ny proposed Ntionl Inventory Mngement System (NIMS) for Indi s nd when designed Historicl GHG inventory preprtion Indin government hs submitted INC nd SNC to UNFCCC Yers covered in vrious Indin officil GHG inventory reports 1994, 2000, 2005 nd 2007 IIMA tem hs been creting ntionl inventories for lst 15 yers (covering ll sectors except LULUCF) nd lso feeding into Indi s ntionl inventory process ppropritely Resons for using IPCC 2006 softwre (by us) We were not using ny inventory softwre before Hd n option for prepring our own softwre, but went for this softwre Of course IPCC 2006 softwre hs mny dvntges Other vilble softwres were not esily vilble, or we didn t look enough

3 Resons for Using 2006 IPCC Softwre It s the ltest vilble softwre for GHG inventory preprtion For preprtion of 2006 IPCC guidelines, mny LAs / CLAs from Indi, so more conversnt with guidelines of vrious sectors Mny Indin experts lso involved with 2006 IPCC softwre cretion process The softwre is simple to use It is ble to produce different reporting tbles s per requirement It helps cpturing missing sources for emission reporting It hs helped synchroniztion of ctivity dt cross sectors Energy nd Non-energy from Iron & Steel sector Biomss consumption for energy (CH 4 & N 2 O) nd its reporting in AFOLU sector Energy from wste sector Checking time series consistency of dt cross yers hs become esier It fits in the proposed Ntionl plns of Ntionl Inventory Mngement System (NIMS)

4 2006 IPCC Softwre Allows flexibility of CO 2 equivlent numbers i.e. given scenrios nd user defined Allows region selection nd incorportion of country specific numbers Selection of bse yer nd ddition of new yers vilble to see constncy of vlues Provides with proper structure for detiled estimtion of sectorl emissions It cptures TACCC Trnsprency: cretes dtbse with dt checks t different levels Completeness: by checking if ll the sources re covered Consistency: helps revise the older emission number for ltest methodology nd guidelines Helps nlyze uncertinty % in AD nd EF t different sectors nd gs levels from bse yer to current This ids in QA of existing dtbse
