Project for GHG Inventory Estimation and Carbon Disclosure Management of Cities

Absrtact	This project studies the developments of international organizations of cities and their relevant guidelines. In providing feedbacks to amend Taiwan’s own guideline, as well as compiling a city government GHG emission inventory manual, practical GHG emission inventories have been established for Taichung City, Yilan County and Kinmen County during the year of 2012, and assisting Tainan City and New Taipei City for training lectures in 2013. At the same time, the project has established a carbon disclosure service platform system for cities, counseled city and county governments to register emissions, and organized trainings and seminars to assist relevant personnel to gain an understanding on the topic of city GHG emission inventory. Accomplishments of the project are summarized below: 1.An in depth study was performed on international organizations of cities, guidelines, and carbon disclosure information. Collected international GHG inventory management information and applied to domestic mechanism for local governments, as well as relevant international organizations and activities as a reference. 2.Carried out Taichung City, Yilan County and Kinmen County GHG inventory trials in accordance with Taiwan’s GHG inventory guideline, as well as assisted Tainan City and New Taipei City to conduct trainings and seminars. Finished city government GHG emission inventory manual in accordance with the ISO standards, and hoping this manual will simplify the process of determining inventory boundary of city government for its users. 3.Based on international registry platform (cCCR) and Taiwan’s city GHG inventory guideline, our carbon disclosure service platform system was established in 2012. In 2013, we continued to expend the functions of the platform and enhance its user friendliness, as well as established a sub-system for sub-governmental agencies. 4.Four training sessions and 15 information sessions were held in 2012 with total 1,500 participants attended. In 2013, four sessions were held at northern, central, southern and eastern of Taiwan, three sessions in New Taipei City, one session in Tainan and one session in Kinmen for training, information providing and start-up meeting purposes with total 500 participants attended.
