The CO 2 from incineration of <strong>the</strong> plastic part of municipal waste is included in <strong>the</strong> Danish inventory.<br />

In addition to <strong>the</strong> detailed emission calculation in <strong>the</strong> national approach, CO 2 emission from fuel<br />

combustion is aggregated using <strong>the</strong> reference approach. In 2003 <strong>the</strong> CO 2 emission inventory based<br />

on <strong>the</strong> reference approach and <strong>the</strong> national approach, respectively, differs 0,04%.<br />

Please refer to Chapter 3 and Annex 3A for fur<strong>the</strong>r information about emission inventories for stationary<br />

combustion plants.<br />

The specific methodologies regarding Fugitive Emissions from Fuels<br />

Fugitive emissions from solid fuels (CRF Table 1.B.1.c)<br />

Storage and handling of coal:<br />

Coal mining is not occurring in Denmark, but power plants use a considerable amount of coal. CH 4<br />

emission from storage and handling of coal is included in <strong>the</strong> Danish inventory. The CH 4 emission<br />

inventory is based on Tier 1 in <strong>the</strong> ‘IPCC Guidelines for <strong>National</strong> Greenhouse Gas Inventories:<br />

Reference Manual’. The CH 4 emission occurring in Denmark is assumed to be half <strong>the</strong> post-mining<br />

emission.<br />

Fugitive emissions from oil (CRF Table 1.B.2. a)<br />

Off-shore activities:<br />

Emissions from offshore activities have been updated using <strong>the</strong> methodology described in <strong>the</strong><br />

Emission <strong>Inventory</strong> Guidebook 3 rd edition. The sources include emissions from extraction of oil<br />

and gas, on-shore oil tanks, on-shore and offshore loading of ships. The emission factors are based<br />

on <strong>the</strong> figures given in <strong>the</strong> Guidebook except for <strong>the</strong> on-shore oil tanks where national values are<br />

used.<br />

Oil Refineries – Petroleum products processing:<br />

The VOC emissions from petroleum refinery processes cover non-combustion emissions from feed<br />

stock handling/storage, petroleum products processing, product storage/handling and flaring.<br />

SO 2 is also emitted from <strong>the</strong> non-combustion processes and includes emissions from products<br />

processing and sulphur recovery plants. The emission calculations are based on information from<br />

<strong>the</strong> Danish refineries and <strong>the</strong> energy statistic.<br />

Please refer to Chapter 3 for fur<strong>the</strong>r information about fugitive emissions from fuels.<br />

Fugitive emissions from natural gas (CRF Table 1.B.2.b)<br />

Natural gas transmission and distribution:<br />

Inventories of CH 4 emission from gas transmission and distribution is based on annual environmental<br />

reports from <strong>the</strong> Danish gas transmission company, Gastra (former DONG) and on a Danish<br />

inventory for <strong>the</strong> years 1999-2003 reported by <strong>the</strong> Danish gas sector (transmission and distribution<br />

companies).<br />

1.4.2 Transport<br />

The emissions from transport referring to SNAP category 07 (road transport) and <strong>the</strong> subcategories<br />

in 08 (o<strong>the</strong>r mobile sources) are made up in <strong>the</strong> IPCC categories; 1A3b (road transport),<br />
