Title: Ruta Bubniene, Programme officer, Reporting and Review unit,


1
Overview of the synthesis report on submissions
from Parties on the views on the common tabular
format
  • SBSTA Workshop on common reporting format for the
    UNFCCC biennial reporting guidelines for
    developed country Parties
  • Bonn, Germany, 11-12 October, 2012

2
Background
  • Mandate SBSTA 36
  • Invited Parties to submit, their views by 13
    August on the common tabular format
  • Requested secretariat
  • to compile the submissions from Parties into a
    miscellaneous document (FCCC/SBSTA/2012/MISC.11,
    Add.1, Add.2)
  • to prepare a synthesis report of Parties
    submissions (FCCC/SBSTA/2012/INF.4)
  • to organize a workshop in October 2012 (11-12
    October, Bonn).

3
Background
  • Views were provided by 7 Parties

4
Background
  • Matters addressed in Parties submissions
  • Information on GHG emissions and trends
  • Quantified economy-wide emission reduction
    target
  • Progress in achieving the quantified economy-wide
    emission reduction target
  • Projections of GHG
  • Provision of financial, technological and
    capacity-building support to developing country
    Parties.

5
Approach
  • Focus of the synthesis report
  • Broad principles for the development of a CTF
  • Specific Parties proposals under separate
    paragraphs of the reporting guidelines
  • Summary of Parties views by
  • highlighting the common trends
  • noting areas where these views differ
  • identifying possible options for a CTF.
  • The options for CTF share many common elements
    and could be easily combined.

6
Approach
  • Principles for development of a common tabular
    format as emphasized in Parties submission
  • Consistency with the biennial reporting
    guidelines
  • Consistency, where appropriate, with the UNFCCC
    reporting guidelines on national communications
  • The use the information already reported in the
    annual GHG inventories and national
    communications
  • Enhanced transparency compared with the current
    reporting requirements
  • Clarity and simplicity in the structure of the
    reporting the CTF information 

7
GHG emissions and trends
  • Common views on
  • The use of GHG inventories as a basis
  • Coverage of gasses and sectors
  • Different views on
  • Timeframe for summary of GHG emissions.

Quantified economy-wide emission reduction
targets
  • Common views on inclusion of information on
  • Base year
  • Gases covered
  • Sectors covered
  • Accounting approach to emissions/removals from
    LULUCF
  • The use of international market-based mechanisms.
  • Different views on
  • The inclusion of GWP
  • The level of detail
  • A few specific elements to be included.

Progress mitigation actions
  • Common views on
  • Using the UNFCCC national communication reporting
    guidelines (table 1. Summary of policies and
    measures by sector)
  • Name of policy and measure
  • Objective and / or activity affected
  • GHG effected
  • Type of instrument
  • Status of policy and measure
  • Implementing entity or entities
  • Estimate of mitigation impact by gas.
  • Different views on
  • Flexibility for the timeline to report the
    impacts of policies and measures
  • Level of disaggregation of mitigation actions
  • Estimate of progress in implementation.

Progress emission reductions
  • Common views
  • Emissions reductions for the base year
  • total GHG emissions, excluding emissions and
    removals from the LULUCF sector
  • emissions and/or removals from the LULUCF sector
    based on the accounting approach applied taking
    into consideration any relevant decisions of the
    COP and the activities and/or lands that will be
    accounted for
  • total GHG emissions, including emissions and
    removals from the LULUCF sector.
  • Emissions reductions for each reported year
    information on the use of units from market-based
    mechanisms.
  • Different views on
  • The level of detail on the units from
    market-based mechanisms
  • The level of detail on the reporting of the GHG
    emissions/removals from LULUCF sector
  • The years to be reported.

Projections variables and assumptions
  • Common views on reporting
  • Similarly to table 2 of the National
    communication guidelines
  • Variables (i.e. GDP growth, world oil prices)
  • Historic and projected in 5 year intervals.
  • Single option based on National communication
    guidelines with updated timeline for historic
    (1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010, 2010, 2011) and
    projected emissions (2015, 2020, 2025, 2030).
  • Some Parties highlighted possibility to select
    variables relevant to the modelling tools used.

16
Projections scenarios
  • Common views on reporting
  • With measures scenario
  • The latest reported year
  • Projected years 2020, 2030
  • Disaggregation by sector (pre-defined/not
    pre-defined).
  • Different views on
  • the number of the scenarios to be reported on a
    mandatory basis (only with measures or also
    without measures and with additional
    measures)
  • the time frame for GHG projections
  • whether disaggregation by gas should be reported
    .

  • Common views on
  • Currency USD/international currency
  • Reported years the two previous calendar or
    financial years without overlap with the previous
    reporting period

    accounting for the financial information
    provided provided, committed or pledged

  • Contributions through bilateral, regional and
    other channels
  • Total.

19
Provision of support finance
  • Different views on
  • Whether to include a description of new and
    additional financial resources
  • Whether to report a summary of bilateral
    financial support in a table for the multilateral
    support
  • How to disaggregate the support (to adaptation
    and mitigation, or to adaptation, mitigation and
    other support)

  • Contribution in USD/international currency
  • The source of funding (private/public).
  • Different views on
  • The level of detail of the description to be
