This chapter is envisaged to provide examples of
country practices
1) in the compilation of various energy indicators
(including those for sustainable energy development)
2) in the calculation of greenhouse gas emissions
IRES
 IRES presents the list of indicators for
sustainable development as examples of
indicators
 It encourages countries to develop the list
of indicators relevant to their policy
concerns and data availability
IRES
 IRES gives a very general introduction to
Greenhouse gas emissions and review the
methods for their calculation under the
IPCC guidelines
 IRES encourages countries to make
additional efforts in verifying the compiled
statistics […] to ensure the quality of their
calculated emissions
