  1. UNDA Project:Development and implementation of a monitoring and assessment tool for CO2 emissions in inland transport to facilitate climate change mitigation Informal document No. GRPE-61-26 (61st GRPE, 11-14 January 2011, agenda item 12) • Duration: 3 years (January 2011 – December 2013) • Leading agency: UNECE • Implementing entities: ECA, ECLAC, ESCAP & ESCWA By Romain HUBERT, UNECE Transport Division, Vehicle Regulations and Transport Innovations UNECE Transport Division

  2. UNDA Project: Objective and expected achievements • Objective: • To develop an information and analysis tool based on a uniform methodology for the evaluation of CO2 emissions in the transport sector in order to enable all UN countries to optimize the use of energy sources in the transport sector, taking into consideration: road vehicle fleets, types of propulsion systems, transport infrastructure, sustainable energy sources, intermodal transport on railways & inland waterways and appropriate policy measures. • Expected Achievement: • Capacity building workshops in all UN RCs on inland transport CO2 emissions and on how to use the powerful analysis tool in order to develop their future strategies for inland transport and to support their policy decisions.

  4. Main development steps 1 Step (2011): - Review of existing emission assessment methodologies - Organization of an international emissions expert meeting 2 Step (2011-2012): - Establishment of a standard methodology for the assessment of CO2 emissions - Implementation, verification and validation of the standard tool - Preparation of a user manual for its the application 3 Step (2013): - Organization of capacity building workshops in all UN RCs 4 Step (2013): - Project evaluation UNECE Transport Division

  5. Expectancies from GRPE experts 1. Questionnaire on inland transport CO2 emissions: - Contribute to questionnaire send out by UNECE in the first quarter of 2011 - Provide information on statistics, tools & methodologies, policy converters, etc. 2. International expert meeting (mid of 2011): - Contribute in the discussion on a methodology to assess CO2 emissions 3. Ounce the new CO2 assessment tool is established (end of 2012): - Promote the new tool to be used on a national basis UNECE Transport Division
