Background

Exploring the 2006 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventory (GHGI) is essential in the Energy, IPPU and Waste Sectors, providing a comprehensive roadmap for effective emission reporting measures. Originating from the IPCC, these guidelines are crucial for nations striving to assess and report their greenhouse gas inventories within these domains.

 In the Energy Sector, the focus will be on the distinct considerations and challenges posed by the transportation industry. Participants in this session will delve into methodologies, principles, and reporting requirements, gaining insights to contribute meaningfully to the accurate measurement and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions. The session encourages active participation, fostering a dynamic exchange of ideas and experiences to enrich the collective understanding of how these guidelines can be practically applied to enhance sustainability within the energy and transportation domains.

Industrial processes and product use emissions are a crucial component that needs to be reported in national greenhouse gas inventories. These emissions arise from various industrial activities such as chemical production, cement manufacturing, and metal processing, as well as from the use of products such as refrigerants and insulating foams. The quantification of these emissions is essential for understanding the overall impact of industrial processes on climate change and for developing effective mitigation strategies.

The waste sector training will cover the characteristic of the sector and how inventory data for this sector is estimated in Philippines. Subsequent sessions will be dedicated to understanding the estimation of waste amounts generated as well as waste composition, which are relevant for inventory preparation. Additionally, general changes between the 1996 and 2006 IPCC guidelines will be discussed.

Dive into the intricacies of the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventory tailored for the Energy, IPPU and Waste Sector in this dedicated training session. Unveiling the compass for precise measurement and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions, participants will explore core principles, methodologies, and reporting intricacies outlined in these guidelines. Originating from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, these guidelines serve as an essential resource for nations navigating the assessment and reporting of greenhouse gas inventories in all sectors. This session aims to demystify key aspects, including inventory planning, data collection, and reporting practices, empowering participants to actively contribute to national and global efforts addressing climate change within the Energy, IPPU and Waste Sector.

Objectives and purpose of the training

The primary objectives of this training session are to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventory (GHGI) in the Energy, IPPU and Waste Sectors. Participants will explore the fundamental principles, methodologies, and reporting requirements outlined in these guidelines, with a specific focus on their practical application within the unique contexts of energy and waste management.

The session aims to equip participants with the knowledge and insights necessary to actively contribute to accurate measurement and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions, fostering a deeper understanding of sustainability practices in these critical sectors.
