            COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2020/1208
of 7 August 2020
         
on structure, format, submission processes and review of information reported by Member States pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 749/2014


THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,


Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 on the Governance of the Energy Union and Climate Action, amending Regulations (EC) No 663/2009 and (EC) No 715/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council, Directives 94/22/EC, 98/70/EC, 2009/31/EC, 2009/73/EC, 2010/31/EU, 2012/27/EU and 2013/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, Council Directives 2009/119/EC and (EU) 2015/652 and repealing Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1), and in particular Articles 19(5), 26(7), 37(6), 38(4) and 39(3) thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


The mechanism for monitoring and reporting greenhouse gas emissions as laid down in Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) lays down a basic framework for monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions under the climate policy. The provisions of that mechanism are fully integrated in Regulation (EU) 2018/1999, which repeals Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 from 1 January 2021. Within that mechanism, it is necessary to adopt rules on reporting on national adaptation actions, the use of auctioning revenues, financial and technology support provided to developing countries, approximated greenhouse gas inventories, greenhouse gas inventories and accounted greenhouse gas emissions and removals, rules on national inventory systems, comprehensive review, reporting on policies and measures and projections.












(2)


The integrated monitoring and reporting system for greenhouse gas inventories, projections and policies and measures, including national systems, helps ensuring data consistency between past emission trends, future emission trends and the effect of policies and measures for reaching climate mitigation objectives. Furthermore, Member States’ reporting on national greenhouse gas inventory is substantively linked to national inventory systems, which are the institutional, legal and procedural arrangements for estimating greenhouse gas emissions. Moreover, the comprehensive review process verifies the quality of the national inventory data submitted. It is therefore appropriate to include the rules on national inventory systems, comprehensive review, systems for policies and measures and projections, and Member States reporting obligations under Chapter 4 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 in one Implementing Regulation.












(3)


In Decision 18/CMA.1, the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) (3) serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Paris Agreement (4), adopted on 12 December 2015, on climate change following the 21st Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC (the ‘Paris Agreement’) adopted the modalities, procedures and guidelines for the transparency framework for action and support, which lay down, inter alia, the reporting on greenhouse gas inventories, policies and measures, projections, impacts and adaptation and support provided to developing countries. The EU and its Member States are to report information in accordance with these modalities, procedures and guidelines, at the latest by 31 December 2024.












(4)


Under Regulation (EU) 2018/1999, Member States are required to submit biennial reports to the Commission with information on their national climate change adaptation planning and strategies in accordance with the reporting requirements agreed under the UNFCCC and the Paris Agreement. This information will be used to monitor progress and action in adapting to climate change, to inform and support the implementation and reviews of the Union adaptation strategy, to facilitate the assessment of the EU’s progress towards the adaptation goal of the Paris Agreement, to enable Member States and the European Union to exchange good practice and to evaluate their needs and level of preparedness to deal with climate change. In line with international reporting arrangements, Member States need also to provide overviews or good practice examples on sub-national activities with the aim to foster awareness of adaptation action at other governance levels and to enable the EU to better promote such action.












(5)


In view of past experience with reporting on the use of auctioning revenues, it is necessary that Member States, who report on the use of the equivalent in financial values of their auctioning revenues, report values, which are representative for their spending in accordance with Article 3d and 10 of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (5).












(6)


Member States’ reporting on the financial and technology support to developing countries should be as detailed as possible and be provided at the level of programmes or activities. Information marked ‘as available’ is to be reported only if available to the Member States by the point of time when introducing the report in the reporting system. A Member State need not fill-in and submit the Table on the planned provision of support in the case the relevant information is not available for the entire Table, inter alia, due to ongoing or outstanding budgetary processes. To ensure consistency, Member States should also be allowed to use the reporting format to the Creditor Reporting System (CRS), introduced by the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Development Assistance Committee (DAC). Pursuant to Decision 18/CMA.1, Member States provide information on grant equivalent to the UNFCCC on a voluntary basis. To ensure coherence with reporting at international level, the reporting requirements set out in this Regulation should be aligned to the extent possible to relevant decisions of the Conference of the Parties serving as meeting of the Parties to the Paris Agreement and the relevant methodological changes by the OECD DAC, when these become available.












(7)


The sectoral scope of the approximated inventory represents a top-level summary of the more detailed sectoral scope of the total greenhouse gas inventory. This ensures that the emission and removal estimates reported in the approximated inventory for the year t-1 are consistent with the greenhouse gas inventory estimates reported in the year t-2. The Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry sector (LULUCF) is an integral part of the annual inventory, and Member States should include estimates of emissions and removals from the LULUCF in their approximated greenhouse gas inventory.












(8)


In order to ensure the transparency of emission reduction commitments, the improvement of quality on a continuous basis, and to facilitate the process of the expert technical review, a high degree of technical detail and information is required in Member States’ reports. Moreover, Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 integrates reporting requirements under Regulation (EU) 2018/841 of the European Parliament and of the Council (6) and Regulation (EU) 2018/842 of the European Parliament and of the Council (7) within the annual greenhouse gas inventory reporting and adjusts to their five-year compliance check cycle by setting up a comprehensive review process in 2027 and 2032. It is therefore necessary to specify the structure, format and process of reporting on the intended use of flexibilities and concluded emission transfers and the use of resulting revenues under Regulation (EU) 2018/842 and to integrate the requirements under Regulation (EU) 2018/841 into the reporting on projections. From the information reported on concluded transfers under Regulation (EU) 2018/841 and Regulation (EU) 2018/842, individual prices reported on concluded transfers will not be disclosed, while the range of prices paid per unit, i.e. the lowest and the highest price across all transactions reported by Member States, should be made available.












(9)


To ensure the timely and effective implementation of the obligations set by the Conference of the Parties to the Paris Agreement, it is necessary to lay down timescales for cooperation and coordination between the Commission and the Member States in preparing the Union greenhouse gas inventory report and the UNFCCC review. It is also necessary to determine the procedure and schedule for the conduct of the comprehensive review of Member States’ greenhouse gas inventories to ensure its timely and effective implementation.












(10)


Member States should establish and operate national inventory systems to ensure and enhance the quality of the inventory through planning, preparation and management of inventory activities, which include collecting activity data, selecting methods and emission factors appropriately, estimating anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions by sources and removals by sinks, implementing uncertainty assessment and quality assurance and quality control activities, and carrying out procedures for the verification of the inventory data at the national level. In order to maintain the high quality of the national inventory systems from the past period, Member States need to continue applying the same standards of inventory planning, preparation and management as laid down in Articles 27-29.












(11)


Rules on systems for policies and measures and projections should be consistent with relevant decisions adopted by the bodies of the UNFCCC or of the Paris Agreement. Since Decision 18/CMA.1 of the Conference of the Parties to the UNFCCC serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Paris Agreement requests information necessary to track progress with the Nationally Determined Contributions under Article 4 of the Paris Agreement, the Member States should submit the relevant information on their institutional, administrative and procedural arrangements for domestic implementation of the Union’s nationally determined contribution.












(12)


Reporting on air pollutants pursuant to Directive (EU) 2016/2284 of the Parliament and of the Council (8) and on greenhouse gases follow to a large extent similar approaches, including the methodologies used by Member States. Therefore, when reporting on policies and measures and projections and their systems in accordance with Chapter VI of this Regulation, a consistent methodological approach is supported by taking into account the policies and measure and projections reported under Directive (EU) 2016/2284.












(13)


The e-platform referred to in Article 28 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 should be used for reporting on all dimensions of the Energy Union by Member States and the Commission, assisted by the European Environment Agency. The Commission takes measures to enable that the information submitted therein is directed or channelled through the single entry point of the Commission and exchanged accordingly with the relevant linked reporting systems such as Reportnet of the European Environment Agency.












(14)


In order to ensure consistency with the date of application of the relevant provisions of Regulation (EU) 2018/1999, this Regulation should apply from 1 January 2021.












(15)


In accordance with Articles 57 and 58 of Regulation (EU) 2018/1999, Regulation (EU) No 525/2013 is repealed with the effect from 1 January 2021, with the exception of Article 7, points (a) and (d) of Article 17(1) and Article 19 of that Regulation, which are to apply to the reports containing data for the years 2019 and 2020. Implementing Regulation (EU) No 749/2014 should therefore be repealed from 1 January 2021, however its Articles 3 to 18 and 27 to 43 should continue to have effect for the reports containing data for those years.












(16)


The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Climate Change Committee,

(1)


An average annual exchange rate for the year X-1 or the real exchange rate applied to the amount disbursed shall be used for the currency conversion.










(2)


Member States shall provide the definitions used for ‘commitment’ and ‘disbursement’ as part of their report. If part of the reported amount is committed and another part disbursed related to a specific programme/project, two separate rows should be used. If Member States are not able to distinguish between committed and disbursed amounts, the most appropriate category should be selected for the reported amounts. Consistent definitions should be used across the Tables.
Generally, ‘committed’ auction revenues are those which have been legally committed to be used for climate and energy purposes, but in some cases may not have yet been spent at the time of reporting. ‘Disbursed’ auction revenues are those which have been spent at the time of reporting. However, in some cases, ‘Commitment’ can refer to revenues that are only preliminarily planned to be used and ‘disbursement’ are those which have been transferred to a specific State Agency for a specific purpose or to a regional government.

This Table shall only be reported if applicable.










(2)


An average annual exchange rate for the year X-1 or the real exchange rate applied to the amount disbursed shall be used for the currency conversion.










(3)


Member States shall provide the definitions used for ‘commitment’ and ‘disbursement’ as part of their report. If part of the reported amount is committed and another part disbursed related to a specific programme/project, two separate rows should be used. If Member States are not able to distinguish between committed and disbursed amounts, the most appropriate category should be selected for the reported amounts. Consistent definitions should be used across the Tables.
Generally, ‘committed’ AEA transfer revenues are those which have been legally committed to be used for climate and energy purposes, but in some cases may not have yet been spent at the time of reporting. ‘Disbursed’ AEA transfer revenues are those which have been spent at the time of reporting. However, in some cases, ‘Commitment’ can refer to revenues that are only preliminarily planned to be used and ‘disbursement’ are those which have been transferred to a specific State Agency for a specific purpose or to a regional government.










(4)


Types of use to be selected:






—


funding of research and development and demonstration projects for reducing emissions and for adaptation;










—


funding of initiatives within the framework of the European Strategic Energy Technology Plan and the European Technology Platforms;










—


development of renewable energies to meet the commitment of the Union to using 32 % renewable energies by 2030;










—


development of other technologies contributing to the transition to a safe and sustainable low-carbon economy;










—


development of technologies that help meet the commitment of the Union to increase energy efficiency by 32,5 % by 2030; — forestry sequestration in the Union;










—


environmentally safe capture and geological storage of CO2;










—


encouragement of a shift to low-emission and public forms of transport;










—


finance research and development in energy efficiency and clean technologies;










—


measures intended to increase energy efficiency and insulation or to provide financial support in order to address social aspects in lower and middle income households;










—


coverage of administrative expenses of the management of the ETS scheme;










—


other reduction of greenhouse gas emissions;










—


adaptation to the impacts of climate change;










—


other domestic uses.




Member States shall avoid double counting of amounts in this Table. If a specific use fits to several types of uses, several types can be selected; however, the amount indicated is not to be multiplied but additional rows for types of uses are to be linked with one entry field for that amount.




Several categories may be selected if several financial instruments are relevant for the reported programme or project.

Notes:







(1)


The Accounting Parameter for the categories managed cropland, managed grassland and/or managed wetland (if elected): average of the base period 2005-2009 in accordance with Article 7(1) to 7(3) of Regulation (EU) 2018/841.










(2)


Cumulative net emissions and removals for all years of the compliance period reported in the current submission.










(3)


The accounting quantity is the sum of total emissions and total removals on its territory in the land accounting categories referred to in Article 2 combined, as accounted in accordance with Regulation 2018/841.










(4)


A Member State that has indicated their intent to apply the natural disturbance provisions may choose to exclude emissions from natural disturbances either at any time up to the end of the compliance period, c.f. Article 10 of Regulation (EU) 2018/841.










(5)


Any subsequent removals on lands from which emissions from natural disturbances have been excluded is subtracted from the accounting quantity of the respective activity.










(6)


Forest reference level as set out in the delegated act adopted pursuant to Article 8(8) and 8(9) of Regulation (EU) 2018/841, in kt CO2 eq per year.










(7)


Technical corrections in accordance with Article 8(11) of Regulation 2018/841 and reported in kt CO2 eq per year.










(8)


In accordance with Article 8(2) no more than the equivalent of 3,5 % of the emissions of the Member State in its base year or period as specified in Annex III of Regulation 2018/841. Exceptions apply for Dead wood and Harvested Wood Products excluding the category of paper as referred to in Article 9(1)(a) of Regulation (EU) 2018/841.










(9)


These emissions are not included in the emissions of the pertinent accounted category (i.e. afforested land and managed forest land). Estimates for HWP are provided separately in accordance with Regulation 2018/841 Annex IV A.(d): the reference level shall include the carbon pool of harvested wood products, thereby providing a comparison between assuming instantaneous oxidation and applying the first-order decay function and half-life values.

Documentation box

Parties shall provide detailed explanation on how the subsequent removals to be excluded from accounting are calculated in relevant annex of the NIR. Use this documentation box to provide references to relevant sections of the NIR if any additional details are needed to understand the content of this table.




Documentation box


 





Notes:







(1)


Reporting in this Table is required by Member States, who apply the provision to exclude emissions from natural disturbances in accordance with Article 10 of Regulation (EU) 2018/841










(2)


Geographic location refers to the boundaries of the areas that encompass the lands subject to natural disturbances on Afforested Land and Managed Forest Land, separately. Information shall, as appropriate, be provided in the documentation box. Consideration of the need for geographically explicit data shall be made, in accordance with Part 3 of Annex V of Regulation (EU) 2018/1999.










(3)


Year when the natural disturbance took place.










(4)


The Member State shall report here emissions from natural disturbances. The values reported here should, as a minimum, be consistent with international reporting requirements, e.g. under the Paris Agreement. Regardless of the method used to estimate carbon stock changes, the Member State shall, as appropriate, provide information in the NIR on how CO2 emissions from natural disturbances were singled out.










(5)


Emissions from salvage logging in the inventory year (information on how emissions from salvage logging have been estimated should be provided in the NIR).










(6)


Emissions reported here shall not include salvage logging emissions.










(7)


Information on the calculation of the background level and the margin should be provided in the NIR, including any recalculations made to the background level and the margin to maintain methodological consistency with the reported emissions.










(8)


If emissions from natural disturbances exceed the background level plus the margin, if a margin is needed, this cell should report ‘yes’.










(9)


Emissions that can be excluded from the accounting in the inventory year equal ‘emissions from natural disturbances’ minus the ‘background level’.










(10)


Member States shall document in the document box below, and in the NIR, how the subsequent removals to be excluded from accounting are calculated. Member States shall also document that the methodology used is consistent with that used for the background level and margin, if applied. Member States shall indicate in the documentation box where this information can be found in the NIR.










(11)


Disturbances shall be listed by year and type of disturbance (in this order, totals by year of natural disturbances to be included). Multiple natural disturbances events of the same type, such as fires due to a severe drought period, can be grouped provided that all relevant information is provided in the NIR or annexes to the NIR. Also in the case that an area is subject to multiple types of disturbances, additional information on how double-counting of emissions and removals is avoided should be provided in the NIR. Also in the case that the area is subject to disturbances in multiple years, additional information on how double counting of emissions and removals from these areas is avoided should be provided in the NIR.










(12)


Member States shall report emissions from natural disturbances that occurred in the inventory year. Member States may also report delayed emissions from natural disturbances that have occurred in previous years, if consistent with the methodology used in the calculation of the background level.

Notation: t signifies the first future year ending with 0 or 5 immediately following the reporting year

Notes:







(1)


Consistency with the data reported under Article 8 of this Regulation is encouraged.










(2)


Use of notation keys: as regards the terms of use defined in the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (chapter 8: reporting guidance and Tables), the notation keys of IE (included elsewhere), NO (not occurring), C (confidential) and NA (not applicable) may be used, as appropriate when projections do not yield data on a specific reporting level (see 2006 IPCC Guidelines).
The use of the notation key NE (Not Estimated) shall be restricted to the situation where a disproportionate amount of effort would be required to collect data for a category or a gas from a specific category that would be insignificant in terms of the overall level and trend in national emissions. In these circumstances a Member State shall list all categories and gases from categories excluded on these grounds, together with a justification for exclusion in terms of the likely level of emissions or removals and identify the category as ‘not estimated’ using the notation key ‘NE’ in the reporting Tables.










(3)


Unspecified mix of HFCs and PFCs is to be reported only if emissions are projected, for which it is not possible to report them under HFCs or under PFCs.










(4)


Emissions in the scope of Directive 2003/87/EC.










(5)


Emissions in the scope of Regulation (EU) 2018/842.










(6)


It shall be reported to which inventory submission (year, version) the base year was calibrated.










(7)


Values for t-5 shall only be provided when t-5 is after the projection base year.










(8)


ODS – ozone depleting substances.










(9)


For the purposes of reporting, the signs for removal shall always be negative (-) and the signs for emissions shall be positive (+). If the information requested in Table 1b is provided in full, this section does not need to be reported.










(10)


Projected indirect CO2 emissions reported in this Table are part of the projected total greenhouse gas emissions (excluding and including LULUCF) and shall be reported as such if available and projected separately from the other reported emissions.

Notes:







(1)


The accounting categories for LULUCF are defined in Regulation (EU) 2018/841.










(2)


Accounted LULUCF emissions for Managed Forest Land are reported emissions/removals in comparison to a reference level, computed in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation (EU) 2018/841. Reporting such accounted values is only mandatory when applying to Forest reference levels as set out in the delegated act adopted pursuant to Article 8(8) and 8(9) of Regulation (EU) 2018/841, for the given time-span (2021-2025, 2026-2030).










(3)


Emissions within the scope of Regulation (EU) 2018/842.










(4)


Accounting of this category for the 2026-2030 commitment period will be possible only with availability of final Forest Reference Levels.










(5)


Accounting of this category is mandatory starting from 2026, notwithstanding any potential postponement under the Article 2(4) of Regulation (EU) 2018/841. Member States not intending to select this category for accounting in the 2021-2025 period shall use the notation key ‘not selected’ for that period.
