  1. National System in Romania- facts and challenges - Mr. Vlad Trusca Ministry of Environment and Water Management - UNFCCC Workshop on National Systems - - 11 April 2005 -

  2. History • UNFCCC – signed in 1992-Rio Earth Summit – ratified in 1994 by Law 24 • Kyoto Protocol – signed in 1999 – ratified in 2001 by Law 3 • Romania – first Annex I country that ratified the Kyoto Protocol • Target – 8% reduction of GHG emissions • European Union Candidate Country - accession to the EU in 2007

  3. History - GHG Inventory • The IInd National Communication (1999) -summary of GHG inventories for years 89-94 • December 2002 – first submission of CRF tables for the period 1992-2000 and NIR • May 2003 – first submission in time of CRF tables for the period 1992-2001 and NIR • Oct. 2003 – in-country review (Bucharest) • May 2004 – submission of the inventories covering the entire time series 1989-2002 recalculated based on the in-country review • Nov. 2004 – desk review

  4. Last Inventory submitted Source: Romania’s GHG Inventory submission 2004

  5. Institutional Arrangements • Ministry of Environment and Water Mngmt. (MEWM) - NFP – coordination and submission • National R&D Institute for Environmental Protection (ICIM Bucharest) – GHG inventory (Energy, Ind.Proc, Solvent&OP, Agric., Waste) • National Institute for Forest Research and Management (ICAS) – LULUCF • National Commission for Climate Change (NCCC) – advice for approval

  6. Inventory Preparation • Annual contract between MEWM and ICIM • Sub-contractor ICAS (LULUCF) • ICIM team consists of 2 full time experts • Revised 1996 IPCC Guidelines – used for the entire time series from the first submission • Apr. 2005 - GHG inventory is 80% ready & recalculations of entire time series ‘89–’02 • New CRF reporter to be used in the 2005 submission together with the new tables for the LULUCF

  7. National System • NS exists but still needs improvements • GD 586/2004 establishing National System for Integrated Assessment and Management of Air Quality (NSIAMAQ) – legal framework for NS • MEWM together with NEPA and ICIM is developing a methodology based on the GD 586/2004 – procedural framework for the NS • Based on the Annex to the Decision 20/CP.7 • General and specific functions • 3 parts: planning, preparation, management • Considering also the EU Decision 280/2004/EC

  8. Data Collection (1) • Entities involved – GHG Inventory performed annually by ICIM & NEPA supported by MEWM • ICAS – sub-contractor LULUCF • Main activity data provider - National Institute for Statistics (NIS) • Questionnaires submitted to producers, consumers, relevant industrial enterprises • Ministries and local EPAs for data not available • Human resources - 2 ex. ICIM, 1 ex. ICAS • Internal cooperation based on a Memorandum signed between the MEWM and NIS

  9. Data Collection (2) • Covering of all sectors and IPCC source categ. • Official documents published annually by NIS • Problems identified in the base year (1989) due to different statistical aggregation of AD • Default EF used in general (lack of CS EF) • Some CS EF in Energy & Ind. Processes • Uncertainty estimation not performed yet • Lack of important activity data for Tier 2 methods • QA/QC plan to be developed in 2005

  10. Problems • Lack of financial and human resources • Lack of data in some sectors and activities (e.g. internal and intl. aviation) and for certain gases (HFCs and SF6) • Inconsistency between Romanian and intl. statistical data (e.g. FAO, IEA) • Using default EF and methodologies instead of country specific • Internal cooperation between institutions • Timing regarding data collection

  11. Future activities • Finalizing the Strategy for Climate Change Related Activities and preparing the National Action Plan for Climate Change • Approving methodology based on NSIAMAQ • Testing the national system methodology for the next year submission • Developing CS EF and methodologies • Shifting to higher tier method for key sources • More comprehensive NIR
