of GHG emissions the entire committment period)

The Swedish National System
Swedish Ministry of Environment overall responsibility
Swedish EPA to coordinate and manage the national work of
inventory and reporting (GHGs and Air Pollutants)
– Annual delivery of inventories to Ministry
Swedish Ordinance 2005:626 defines responsibilities for
authorities
Identified authorities to contribute by calculated or other
input data (or review of calculated data)
Annual deliveries from authorities are specified:
– which data or other information
– what quality
– when
SMED consortium performs inventories under a framework
contract with Swedish EPA

The SMED Consortium
Was established in 2000.
Consists of four independent organizations.
Four programme areas: Air, Water, Waste, Hazardous
Substances.
Has performed the National Greenhouse Gas and Air Emission
Inventories since 2000.
Since 2006, a long-term framework agreement with the
Swedish EPA to compile data and documentation for national
and international environmental reporting.

Organization of air inventory work
Annual inventory project
– Lead by a project leading team (one from each
organization)
– Both greenhouse gases and air pollutants covered within
the same system
– Common workspace and archive at www.projectplace.se
Work guided by a quality assurance/quality control
(QA/QC) system and manual
Development projects and improvements, as needed
and prioritized by the Swedish EPA

Data handling
All common data and documents are kept and archived
at the workspace on the web, accessible to all inventory
staff.
Confidential input data are archived at each
organisation.
A technical support system is the master database. It
allows for some quality control (QC), as well as
archiving and version control.

General Tier 1 quality control (QC) according to IPCC
Good Practice Guidance chapter 8.
QC-checklists
Internal audit within SMED
External review (national independent review, UNFCCC,
CLRTAP)

Act: Corrective actions and follow-up
Corrections or suggested improvements from QA/QC steps
(audit, review) are solved immediately if possible.
Required or desirable changes and improvements taken into
consideration in the inventory planning procedure, in
cooperation between the Swedish EPA and SMED.
At a final meeting each year the project is evaluated
regarding project organisation, efficiency and quality.

Result of all the work
National Inventory Report (NIR to UNFCCC) and
Informative Inventory Report (IIR to CLRTAP)
- Institutional arrangements
- Quality assurance and quality control
- Key source analyses (basis for prioritisations of future
improvements)
- Uncertainty analyses
- Emission trend analyses
- Methodology description and results for all sectors
- Recalculations and improvements
Reporting tables to UNFCCC (CRF) and CLRTAP (NFR)
– Emissions and activity data by source
Data are used nationally for policy and follow up
Data are used in GAINS-work
