ANNEX VSupplementary provisions

ANNEX V GHG INVENTORIES INFORMATION Part 1 Information to be included in the reports referred to in Article 26(3): (a) their anthropogenic emissions of GHGs listed in Part 2 of this Annex and the anthropogenic emissions of GHGs referred to in Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/842 for the year X-2; (b) data on their anthropogenic emissions of carbon monoxide (CO), sulphur dioxide (SO 2 ), nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds, consistent with data already reported pursuant to Article 8 of Directive (EU) 2016/2284 for the year X-2; (c) their anthropogenic GHG emissions by sources and removals of CO 2 by sinks resulting from LULUCF, for the year X-2, in accordance with the methodologies specified in Part 3 of this Annex. This data shall also be relevant for the compliance report under Article 14 of Regulation (EU) 2018/841; (d) any changes to the information referred to in points (a), (b) and (c) for the years between the relevant base year or period and the year X-3, indicating the reasons for those changes; (e) information on indicators, as set out in Part 4 of this Annex, for the year X-2; (f) summary information on concluded transfers pursuant to Article 5 of Regulation (EU) 2018/842 and Articles 12 and 13 of Regulation (EU) 2018/841 for the year X-1; (g) information on the steps taken to improve inventory estimates, in particular in areas of the inventory that have been subject to adjustments or recommendations following expert reviews; (h) the actual or estimated allocation of the verified emissions reported by installation operators under Directive 2003/87/EC to the source categories of the national GHG inventory and the ratio of those verified emissions to the total reported GHG emissions in those source categories, for the year X-2; (i) where relevant, the results of the checks performed on the consistency of the emissions reported in the GHG inventories, for the year X-2, with the verified emissions reported under Directive 2003/87/EC; (j) where relevant, the results of the checks performed on the consistency of the data used to estimate emissions in preparation of the GHG inventories, for the year X-2, with: (i) the data used to prepare inventories of air pollutants pursuant to Directive (EU) 2016/2284; (ii) the data reported pursuant to Article 19(1) of, and Annex VII to, Regulation (EU) No 517/2014; (iii) the energy data reported pursuant to Article 4 of, and Annex B to, Regulation (EC) No 1099/2008; (k) a description of changes to their national inventory system, if any; (l) a description of changes to the national registry, if any; (m) information on their quality assurance and quality control plans, a general uncertainty assessment, a general assessment of completeness and, any other elements of the national GHG inventory report needed to prepare the Union GHG inventory report; (n) information of the Member State's intentions to make use of the flexibilities in Article 5(4) and (5) and Article 7(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/842 and of the use of revenues under Article 5(6) of that Regulation. A Member State may request to be granted a derogation by the Commission from point (c) of the first paragraph to apply a different methodology from that specified in Part 3 of this Annex where the methodology improvement required cannot be achieved in time for the improvement to be taken into account in the GHG inventories for the period from 2021 to 2030, or where the cost of the methodology improvement would be disproportionately high compared to the benefits of applying such methodology to improve accounting for emissions and removals due to the low significance of the emissions and removals from the carbon pools concerned. Member States wishing to benefit from this derogation shall submit a reasoned request to the Commission by 31 December 2020, indicating by which time the methodology improvement could be implemented, the alternative methodology proposed or both, and an assessment of the potential impacts on the accuracy of accounting. The Commission may request additional information to be submitted within a specific, reasonable time period. Where the Commission considers that the request is justified, it shall grant the derogation. If the Commission rejects the request, it shall give reasons for its decision. Part 2 The GHGs to be covered are:   Carbon dioxide (CO 2 )   Methane (CH 4 )   Nitrous Oxide (N 2 O)   Sulphur hexafluoride (SF 6 )   Nitrogen trifluoride (NF 3 ) Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs): — HFC-23 CHF 3 — HFC-32 CH 2 F 2 — HFC-41 CH 3 F — HFC-125 CHF 2 CF 3 — HFC-134 CHF 2 CHF 2 — HFC-134a CH 2 FCF 3 — HFC-143 CH 2 FCHF 2 — HFC-143a CH 3 CF 3 — HFC-152 CH 2 FCH 2 F — HFC-152a CH 3 CHF 2 — HFC-161 CH 3 CH 2 F — HFC-227ea CF 3 CHFCF 3 — HFC-236cb CF 3 CF 2 CH 2 F — HFC-236ea CF 3 CHFCHF 2 — HFC-236fa CF 3 CH2CF 3 — HFC-245fa CHF 2 CH 2 CF 3 — HFC-245ca CH 2 FCF 2 CHF 2 — HFC-365mfc CH 3 CF 2 CH 2 CF 3 — HFC-43-10mee CF 3 CHFCHFCF 2 CF 3 or (C 5 H 2 F 10 ) Perfluorocarbons (PFCs): — PFC-14, Perfluoromethane, CF 4 — PFC-116, Perfluoroethane, C 2 F 6 — PFC-218, Perfluoropropane, C 3 F 8 — PFC-318, Perfluorocyclobutane, c-C 4 F 8 — Perfluorocyclopropane c-C 3 F 6 — PFC-3-1-10, Perfluorobutane, C 4 F 10 — PFC-4-1-12, Perfluoropentane, C 5 F 12 — PFC-5-1-14, Perfluorohexane, C 6 F 14 — PFC-9-1-18, C 10 F 18 Part 3 Methodologies for monitoring and reporting in the LULUCF sector Geographically explicit land-use conversion data in accordance with the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for national GHG inventories. Tier 1 methodology in accordance with the 2006 IPCC guidelines for national GHG inventories. For emissions and removals for a carbon pool that accounts for at least 25-30 % of emissions or removals in a source or sink category which is prioritised within a Member State's national inventory system because its estimate has a significant influence on a country's total inventory of GHGs in terms of the absolute level of emissions and removals, the trend in emissions and removals, or the uncertainty in emissions and removals in the land-use categories, at least Tier 2 methodology in accordance with the 2006 IPCC guidelines for national GHG inventories. Member States are encouraged to apply Tier 3 methodology, in accordance with the 2006 IPCC guidelines for national GHG inventories.
