Requirements

Submission of the emission reporting report accompanied by the verification report.

  1. The emission notification shall be carried out by the undertaking, in accordance with the criteria set out in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2066 of 19 December 2018 on the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions in application of Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council.
  2. The verification of the modification report shall be governed by the provisions of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/2067 of 19 December 2018 on the verification of data and the accreditation of verifiers in accordance with Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, namely:
  • The verification process will include the review of the report prepared in accordance with Article 22 and the previous year's follow-up. It shall examine the reliability, credibility and accuracy of monitoring systems and reported data and information relating to emissions.
  • Reported emissions will only be validated if reliable and credible data and information are provided that allow the determination of emissions with a high degree of certainty.
  • The verification will be based on a strategic analysis of all the activities carried out in the facility, so the verifier should have an overview of all the activities and their importance for emissions.
  • Verification of the information submitted will be carried out, where appropriate, at the site of the installation. The verifier shall use on-site inspections to determine the reliability of the reported data and information.
  • The verifier shall subject all sources of emissions from the installation to an assessment in relation to the reliability of data from all sources contributing to the overall emissions of the installation.
  • On the basis of this analysis, the verifier shall explicitly identify sources with a high risk of errors and other aspects of the monitoring and reporting procedure that could contribute to errors in the determination of overall emissions, including the choice of emission factors and calculations necessary to determine emissions from isolated sources.
  • Particular attention will be paid to sources with a high risk of error and to the above-mentioned aspects of the monitoring procedure.
  • The verifier shall take into account any effective risk control method applied by the operator in order to minimise the degree of uncertainty.
  • The verifier shall prepare a report on the validation process stating the satisfactory nature of the notification made in accordance with Article 22. This report shall indicate all aspects relevant to the work carried out. A declaration indicating that the notification made in accordance with Article 22 is satisfactory may be made if, in the opinion of the verifier, the declaration of total emissions is error-free.
  • The verifier will be independent of the owner, will carry out his/her activities in a professional, competent and objective manner.


    3. The assessment of the verified report and registration of the validated data in the Union Registry will be carried out by the authorised body, in accordance with Article 23 of Law 1/2005, of 9 March, which regulates the greenhouse gas emission rights trading system.
