Essential Elements of Robust MRV Systems and Analysis of Their Relevance for Linking Emissions Trading Schemes
註釋The UFOPLAN-research project "Internationaler Vergleich oder Bestandsaufnahme der Methoden und Verfahren für Monitoring, Berichterstattung und Verifizierung in Emissionshandelssystemen“ (FKZ: 3712 41 505) examines and compares the requirements for monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) of greenhouse gas emissions in selected emission trading schemes (ETS) and reporting systems. In this regard, the operational and organisational structure of the annual compliance cycle as well as the methodical and technical requirements for determination of emissions in numerous ETS is in the focus of the study. Based on the results of in total five working packages, it was assessed on a general basis which inherent risks in the context of regular monitoring and reporting of emissions exist and which minimum requirements should be at least defined within a MRV-regulation in order to minimize those risks and to guarantee a robust monitoring. Especially with regard to a potentially upcoming linking of ETS, the adequate desing of essential MRV-elements in the systems to be linked is key for the mutual acceptance of a common market. The research project, thus, presents comprehensive conclusions on potential barriers for linking in the context of the qualitative and quantitive requirements for the determination of emissions as well with regard to the organizational and operational architectures of ETS. This publication contains the study that has compiled in this research area. The project complements the research that has been done on the issue of linking but focusses specifically on the requirements in the context of MRV.
