A Quick Review of IIRs in 2010 Justin Goodwin: ETC-ACC Supported by EEA
Outline • Some Simple Analysis • Some Awards
IIRs Why ? • Policy Makers the Public & Users of the data. • Supports the data (NFR) • Explain Emission Trends • Understand areas needed for improvement • Build Trust in the data • National System, QA/QC, KCA • Highlight Limitations (IE, NE, Uncertainties) • Understand Changes • Makes Stage 3 Review Possible
IIRs What ? • Transparency: including whether the data provided shows clearly the methods, assumptions and data sources used for the estimates. • Completeness: ensuring that all anthropogenic sources of emission are included for which there are methods provided in The Guidebook • Comparability: ensuring that emission estimates are compiled using similar and compatible methods across Parties and provided at a similar level of detail. • Consistency: ensuring that data provided by a party has consistent data and assumptions across years and pollutants reported. • Accuracy: assessment to ensure that uncertainties in emission estimates are minimised and that uncertainty analysis forms the basis of prioritising future improvements by the Party.
IIR Performance 2010 • Scoring: • 4 forGood • 2 for Moderate • 1 for limited • 0 for No Information
Things I didn’t Like • IIR template not followed • Organised by Pollutant • Trend description mixed in with methodology section • No overview of completeness or Accuracy • Lack of Efs/AD/Method Description for Key Categories Country Specific Methods • Not including all sector in IIR
