Energy Volume IPCC 2006 Guidelines Overview: Sectoral vs Reference Approach

Explore the key updates in the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for the Energy Sector, including CO2 capture and storage, non-energy use of fuels, and more. Learn about the clear segregation between Sectoral and Reference Approaches, updated methodologies for developing countries, and improved emission estimation tools.

Presentation Transcript

  1. What’s New in the Energy Volume IPCC 2006 Guidelines Bonn, 18 may 2006 Tinus PullesTNO, Netherlands

  2. Overview • No “real” changes since the revised 1996 Guidelines • What’s new? • Clear separation of Sectoral Approach and Reference Approach • Clear treatment of non-energy use of fuels • New chapter on CO2 Capture and Storage • Methods for abandoned coal mines • New methodologies and emission factors to reflect developing country circumstances as well • Improved decision trees facilitating more accurate emission estimation • Uncertainty information for all default values

  3. Energy sector overview The energy sector comprises: • fugitive emissions during exploration, exploitation of primary energy sources, • conversion of primary energy sources into more useable energy forms in refineries and power plants • transmission and distribution of fuels • use of fuels in stationary and mobile applications.

  4. Uncertainty information Uncertainty Point value

  5. “Sectoral Approach” vs “Reference Approach” Effort Error

  6. Non-Energy use of Fuels • By definition: Non-Energy Use is not dealt with in “Energy” but in “Industrial Processes and Product Use”. • Sectoral Approach uses “Fuel Combusted”. • A correction for Non-Energy Use is implemented in the Reference Approach to deal with the carbon stored in products • The 2006GLs would help segregate energy and non-energy emissions from sectors such as iron and steel.

  7. CO2 Capture and Storage Stationary Combustion New Chapter IPPU

  8. CO2 Capture and (Transport &) Storage

  9. Abandoned Coal Mines • Closed, or abandoned, underground coal mines may continue to be a source of greenhouse gas emissions for some time; • Tier 1 and Tier 2 methods, based on a database of abandoned mines are provided and default emisison factors are given.
