GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS IN FINLAND 1990-2006 National Inventory Report under the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol 11 April 2008 2 PREFACE Finland’s National Inventory Report (NIR) under the UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) and the Kyoto Protocol (voluntary reporting in accordance with decision 15/CMP.1) contains the following parts: Part 1 Finland’s national greenhouse gas emission inventory report (NIR) prepared using the reporting guidelines (UNFCCC 2006) and relevant parts of the Guidelines for the preparation of the information required under Article 7 of the Kyoto Protocol (Kyoto Protocol 2005). IPCC and other methods applied in the calculation of the emissions are described, as well as changes to the previous submission. Several summarising tables and graphs of the emission data and emission trends for the years 1990-2006 are included. Part 2 CRF (Common Reporting Format) data tables of Finland’s greenhouse gas emissions for the years 1990-2006. The CFR tables are compiled with the latest UNFCCC CRF Reporter software (version 3.2.1). Since the submission of Finland’s initial report under the Kyoto Protocol to the UNFCCC secretariat on 22 December 2006, only minor changes have occurred in the national system or registries. These are presented in chapter 1. Information on emissions and removals related to Article 3, paragraphs 3 and 4, as well as on Article 3, paragraph 14 will be included in the inventory submissions from the year 2010 onwards. The main methodological improvements and changes since the inventory submission in 2007 are listed in Chapter 10. Statistics Finland (Pia Forsell, Kari Grönfors, Tuija Lapveteläinen, Teemu Oinonen, Paula Perälä, Riitta Pipatti, Leena Raittinen, Kai Skoglund), MTT Agrifood Research Finland (Kristiina Regina), the Finnish Forest Research Institute (Tarja Tuomainen, Timo Kareinen), the Finnish Environment Institute (Päivi Lindh, Santtu Mattila, Johanna Mikkola-Pusa, Jouko Petäjä, Kristina Saarinen, Tuulia Toikka), VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland (Kari Mäkelä, Kim Pingoud, Anna-Leena Perälä) and Finavia (Niina Rusko) have made the inventory calculations, as well as the description of the methodologies and other information included in the national inventory report. Statistics Finland is the National Entity with the overall responsibility of the compilation and finalisation of inventory reports and their submission to the UNFCCC Secretariat and the European Commission. Statistics Finland approves the inventory submissions to the EC and UNFCCC independently.
