REPORT OF THE VIRTUAL WORKSHOP FOR TRAINING NATIONAL EXPERTS ON THE GREENHOUSE GAS (GHG) AND BLACK CARBON INVENTORY IN THE WASTE SECTOR IN SENEGAL

The workshop, part of the 'Support for the NDC implementation in the Waste Management sector in Senegal and Côte D’Ivoire' project, provided technical training on GHG and short-lived climate pollutant (SLCP) inventories. Participants were introduced to the 2006 IPCC Guidelines, the IPCC inventory software (version 2.691), and the EMEP/EEA air pollutant emission inventory guidebook. The training included practical exercises using activity data from Benin to estimate emissions from open burning of municipal solid waste and wastewater management.

• Senegal has established specific unconditional and conditional GHG emission reduction targets under the Paris Agreement for two periods: a 5% unconditional and 25% conditional reduction for 2020-2024, and an 11% unconditional and 61% conditional reduction for 2025-2030.
• The workshop focused on the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National GHG Inventories, specifically Volume 5, which covers the waste sector, including categories such as solid waste disposal, biological treatment of solid waste, incineration and open burning of waste, and wastewater treatment and discharge.
• Participants were trained on IPCC inventory software version 2.691, which supports Tier 1 and 2 methods, allows for the use of country-specific emission factors, and assists in quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) analysis.
• Because there are no internationally agreed-upon methodologies and emission factors for short-lived climate pollutant (SLCP) inventories, the IPCC and the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) recommend using air pollutant inventory methodologies, such as the EMEP/EEA air pollutant emission inventory guidebook.
• The training utilized practical exercises based on activity data from Benin to estimate GHG and SLCP emissions from the open burning of municipal solid waste and domestic wastewater management for the period 2010 to 2015.
