Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the Netherlands 1990-2001. National Inventory Report 2003Translated Title
Nederlandse broeikasgasemissies. 1990-2001. Nationaal Inventarisatie Rapport 2003Publiekssamenvatting
This report documents the 2003 Netherlands' annual submission of its greenhouse gas emission inventory in accordance with the United Nation's Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the European Union's Greenhouse Gas Monitoring Mechanism. The report comprises explanations of observed trends in emissions; a description of an assessment of key sources and their uncertainty; documentation of methods, data sources and emission factors applied; and a description of the quality assurance system and the verification activities performed on the data. From the inventory it can be concluded that total CO2-equivalent emissions of the six greenhouse gases together increased in 2001 by about 4% relative to 1990 (1995 for fluorinated gases). This increase would be 2%-points less for temperature-corrected emissions. Emissions of CO2 increased from 1990 to 2001 by 13%, while in the same period CH4 and N2O emissions decreased by about 25% and 3%, respectively. For the fluorinated greenhouse gases, for which 1995 is the reference year, total emissions decreased by 60%. Emissions of HFCs and PFCs decreased by 75% and 20% in 2001, respectively, while SF6 emissions increased by about 7%.Dit rapport over de Nederlandse inventarisatie van broeikasgasemissies is geschreven om te voldoen aan de nationale rapportageverplichtingen in 2003 van het Klimaatverdrag van de Verenigde Naties (UN-FCCC) en van het Bewakingsmechanisme Broeikasgassen van de Europese Unie. Dit rapport bevat trendanalyses voor de emissies van broeikasgas in de periode 1990-2001; een analyse van zgn. sleutelbronnen en de onzekerheid in hun emissies; documentatie van gebruikte berekeningsmethoden, databronnen en toegepaste emissiefactoren; en een overzicht van het kwaliteitssysteem en de verificatie van de emissiecijfers voor de Nederlandse Emissieregistratie. De totale netto CO2-eq.-emissies waren in 2001 4% hoger dan in 1990 (1995 voor de F-gassen). Dit wordt 2%-punt minder na temperatuurcorrectie. In die periode is de emissie van CO2 met 13% toegenomen, terwijl de CH4- en N2O-emissies met resp. 25% en 3% afnamen. Van de zgn. F-gassen, waarvoor 1995 het referentiejaar is, nam de totale emissie met 60% af. De HFK- en PFK-emissies namen met resp. 75% en 20% af, terwijl de SF6 met 7% toenamen in 2001 ten opzichte van 1995.
