Chapter 6 - Inventory management, improvement and quality assurance/quality control

This chapter provides guidance on inventory management, improvement and QA/QC that can be used to help ensure that the inventory systems are able to be fully compliant with countries’reporting commitments under the LRTAP Convention and its protocols (ECE.EB.AIR/125).To ensure continued alignment with best practice in compiling GHG emissions inventories, a substantial amount of the content has been drawn from the latest version of the guidance on GHG emission inventories from the IPCC, the most recent updates being reported as the 2019 Refinement to the 2006 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (IPCC, 2019).
