Background
The revised 96 GLs were based on data
and knowledge from the beginning of the
1990s
Successful but now 10 years oldTwo Good Practice Guideline reports to
complement the 96GLs (2000 & 2003)
We now have
Experience in use of GLs and GPG
New scientific and technical developments
8/12/2019 Background Objectives SBSTA20

Therefore:
There is a need for a comprehensive update
and revision
This could contribute to the future
negotiations

Planning for Revision
TFB 8/TFB9/TFB10 first steps towards the revision
IPCC Bureau XXVIIproposal for IPCC XX
SBSTA 17 invitation to IPCC to revise the 96GLs by 2006
IPCC XXapproved the plan for the revision
Scoping meeting and TFB 11 (both in Geneva in September 2003)
TOR, TOC and Work Plan were approvedby IPCC XXI (November 2003)

Objectives
Revise existing guidelines based on:
Existing GL and GPG reports
IPCC Emission Factor Database
Experience and feedback in using
guidelines as well as experience from
UNFCCC inventory reviews
(e.g.FCCC/SBSTA/2003/INF.10)Improvements in scientific and technical
knowledge since mid 1990s
8/12/2019 Background Objectives SBSTA20
7/29
General Approach
96GLs and GPGs to be initially merged into onereport
Recent advances in science as well as experiencein use of the guidelines and results of the UNFCCC
inventory reviews will be taken into account (suchas; FCCC/SBSTA/2003/INF.10)
A key principle will be to approach the revisionwith flexibility but to maintain the existingstructure as much as possible to facilitate the
job of inventory preparers (evolution notrevolution)

Scopeof Gases
Current coverage: CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs, PFCs and SF6(direct GHGs)
NOx, CO and NMVOCs and SO2(indirect GHG; precursors)
The 2006 Guidelines will cover these.
What About new gases?
8/12/2019 Background Objectives SBSTA20
9/29
Vol. 1, IPCC 3rdAssessment Report (TAR) new gases (i.e. not in SAR, e.g. halo-ethers)
improved scientific understanding of atmospheric chemistry,
including lifetimes and GWPs of GHGs.
Demands by Parties to the UNFCCC (e.g.FCCC/SBSTA/2003/MISC.3)
Development of Guidelines by other organizations
(e.g. EMEP/CORINAIR)
Developments since 1997/2000
8/12/2019 Background Objectives SBSTA20
10/29
new halogenated direct GHGs
e.g. halo-ethers, NF3, SF5CF3,
other indirect GHGs
e.g. H2
other precursors and substancese.g. NH3, aerosols
Candidate new gases for inclusion
8/12/2019 Background Objectives SBSTA20
11/29
Criteria for inclusion of a new gas
Scoping Meeting (Geneva, September 2003)
agreed criteria for the inclusion of new gases:
availability of a global warming potential
in the TAR
there are identifiedanthropogenic sources there is a basisfor methodological development
relative importanceto the total emissions
A need for development for New methods forozone precursors is not anticipatedas these are
addressed under other agreements and
conventions.

(inclusion or non-inclusion)

inventory compilers, useful also for reviewers
and other
Main criteria robustness, applicability and
traceability (documentation)
Includes IPCC Default factors from 96GLs and
GPG2000; defaults from GPG-LULUCF will beincluded 2004
