Interim Report, No 3, 19 September 2011 – 18 March 2012 • Preparation and delivery of national two days ReCAP seminar on the EU Climate and Energy Package, Belgrade, Serbia (29 and 30 March 2012). Focus: main legislative elements (ETS, effort sharing, renewables, CCS, F-gases and CO2 from cars including fuel quality). Target group: industry, CSOs; central, regional and local authorities, background institutions. • Preparation and delivery of one day national seminar on the EU Climate and Energy Package, Istanbul, Turkey (13 April 2012). This seminar planned under Activity 2.1 will be combined with a workshop on the ETS (Activity 2.3). Target group: high level officials, CEOs and NGOs for the first part (Focus: Climate and energy package) and industry (environment) managers, authorities and NGOs for the second part (Focus: Generic workshop on Emission Trading Scheme). • Preparation and delivery of national two days ReCAP seminar on opportunities, benefits and challenges of EU Climate policy and legislation, Albania, Tirana, (6 and 7 June 2012 Focus: main legislative elements (ETS, effort sharing, renewables, CCS, F-gases and CO2 from cars including fuel quality). Target group: industry, CSOs; central, regional and local authorities, background institutions. • Preparation and delivery of national two days ReCAP seminar on opportunities, benefits and challenges of EU Climate policy and legislation, Montenegro, Podgorica, (4 and 5 July 2012 Focus: main legislative elements (ETS, effort sharing, renewables, CCS, F-gases and CO2 from cars including fuel quality). Target group: industry, CSOs; central, regional and local authorities, background institutions. Activity 2.2 GHG Reporting Implemented activities during the third interim reporting period • Delivery of regional workshop on the Monitoring Mechanism Decision (280/2004/EC) and its implementing provisions, Tirana, Albania (16 – 17 November, 2011). The workshop concentrated its efforts on presenting the Common Reporting Format (CRF) Reporter tool of the UNFCCC and its use in compiling data for the GHG Registries. The MMD itself establishes mechanism for monitoring all anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of GHGs. It enables the implementation of the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol as regards national programmes, GHG inventories, national systems and registries of the Community and its Member States (MS). Additionally, it ensures the timeliness, completeness, accuracy, consistency, comparability and transparency of reporting by the Community and its MS to the UNFCCC. The training successfully provided: 1. Introduction to the CRF Reporter tool; 2. Overview of Annex I countries experience in using the CRF Reporter (Austria, Croatia, Germany, Romania); 3. Overview of RENA country state of play regarding GHG emission inventories; 4. How to use IPCC methods to estimate emissions from fuel combustion and fugitive emissions; 5. How to compile national GHG inventory by using the CRF Reporter tool. The participants were also given two “real-life-medium-difficulty emission estimation” tasks: 1) fuel combustion sectoral approach and 2) fuel combustions reference approach which were successfully accomplished with the assistance of RENA experts.

Interim Report, No 3, 19 September 2011 – 18 March 2012 In addition the modalities of the 2012 MMD exercise were agreed upon: steps to take in the framework of the RENA WG 2 CC Activity 2.2. MMD in 2012. 1. RENA Countries to further familiarise themselves with CRF Reporter tool; 2. Prepare database for Combustion fuels sector in a harmonised way; 3. Identify strengths and weaknesses in GHG inventory reporting (focus Sector 1A: combustion fuels); 4. Identify gap filling needs and translate into concrete project proposals for further consideration. • Following the RENA Climate Change Annual meeting a ToR was prepared for national experts to start developing better knowledge and capacity as to gradually improve/increase the technical and institutional ability of the RENA countries to prepare submissions of National Inventory Reports in the framework of the MMD. As such, the exercise should be seen as a first step that should lead to the following concrete results: 1. Result 1: Identified gaps (data quality and availability with focus on institutional and legal aspects) 2. Result 2: Gap filling requirements to establish a sound framework for data flow 3. Result 3: Recommendations to translate the above into potential national or regional IPA project fiches to address identified gaps It is expected that the above exercise’s focus (until summer 2012) should concentrate more on improving the process of the preparation of sound inventories towards a full and harmonised combustion fuel sector GHG inventory using appropriate guidelines and tools. The focus will be on the combustion fuel sector 1A. In addition to the above the exercise will also include as a result: 4. Result 4: Draft list of activities of Annex 1 of the revised ETS Directive (2009/20/EC) in the respective RENA countries. The MMD kick-of workshop was held in Zagreb, Croatia (10 February 2012). For more details please see the enclosed workshop report (Annex 12). Planned activities for the next interim reporting period • For each RENA country the project team (key experts and national experts) delivery of the following: 1. Description of the national system and data flow (February 2012). 2. Delivery of energy balances and first data filled in for sector Combustion Fuels into CRF (April 2012); 3. Delivery of second MMD meeting, Zagreb, Croatia (14 June 2012) to discuss progress; 4. Final draft CRF combustion fuel sector (July 2012)l 5. Workshop preparations and presentations (13 – 14 September 2012); 6. List of installations/activities that fall in the scope of ETS from February to September 2012. Activity 2.3 EU-ETS Implemented activities during the third interim reporting period • Delivery of regional workshop on Monitoring, Reporting and Verification within the EU ETS. The workshop was organised in Zagreb, Croatia (26 – 27 September 2011). Human Dynamics Consortium 28
