1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON EMISSION INVENTORIES

The Republic of Latvia has ratified the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution

(Geneva, 1979) by Resolution Nr. 63 of 7 July 1994 of the Cabinet of Ministers of Latvia. Later

on Latvia has signed following Protocols of Convention:

The 1998 Aarhus Protocol on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs);

The 1998 Aarhus Protocol on Heavy Metals;

The 1999 Gothenburg Protocol to Abate Acidification, Eutrophication and Ground-level

Ozone.

According to the revised Guidelines for Reporting Emission Data under the Convention on

Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (ECE/EB.AIR/97, revised 27 January 2009) Party shall

annually submit an emission inventory to the secretariat.

This report is Latvia’s Annual Informative Inventory Report (IIR) submitted on 15 March 2014.

The report contains information on Latvia’s inventories for 1990 - 2012.

The annual emission inventory for Latvia is reported in the Nomenclature for Reporting (NFR09

dated 30.9.2009) format as requested in the revised Reporting Guidelines.

The issues addressed in this report are: Trends in emissions, description of each NFR category,

recalculations, planned improvements.

The latest recalculations in emission inventory were done for the time period from 1990 to

2011. These were done because of the change of activity data in all sectors.

This report is made based on resubmitted emission data on 15 March 2014. It contains

information on Latvia’s emission inventories for years from 1990 to 2012 for anthropogenic

emissions of NOx; CO; NMVOC; SOx; NH3; TSP; PM10; PM 2,5; Pb; Cd; Hg; PCBs; DIOX; PAHs;

HCB; As; Cr; Cu; Ni; Se and Zn.

1.2 DESCRIPTION OF THE INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENT FOR INVENTORY PREPARATION

Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report (IIR) is prepared by the state Ltd LEGMC cooperating with

other institutions. The purpose of the LEGMC is to collect and process environmental

information, to carry out environmental monitoring and inform the general public of the status

of the environment, to provide for the geological supervision and rational use of natural

recourses, to implement the state policies in geology, meteorology, climatology, hydrology,

and air quality and the impact of transboundary air pollution.

The experts at the LEGMC have created inventory in co-operation with following institutions

and using expert publications and evaluations:

The Ministry of the Environmental Protection and Regional Development;

Central Statistical Bureau;

Institute of Physical Energetics;

Latvian State Forest Research Institute "Silava";

Latvia University of Agriculture;

Ministry of Agriculture.

1.3 DESCRIPTION OF THE PROCESS OF INVENTORY PREPARATION

The process of inventory compilation consists of inventory planning that includes decision

making of methodological and organisational issues and time frame of inventory preparation.

In the first stage specific responsibilities are defined and allocated. In the second stage, the

inventory preparation process, were collected activity data, emission factors and all relevant

information needed for finally estimating emissions.

Latvia’s emissions inventory is based on the IPCC 1996, IPCC GPG 2000, IPCC GPG LULUCF

2003, EMEP/EEA 2009 and EMEP/EEA 2013.

NFR format is used to prepare inventory for years 1990–2012. To calculate emissions,

supplemental locally developed database in Excel format was used for all sectors except Road

Transport. A special Computer Programme for Road Transportation (COPERT IV), which is

proposed to be used by EEA member countries for the compilation of CORINAIR emission

inventories, was used. Additional researches were made, based on needs of recalculation, to

compile data and investigate appropriate approach to fulfil Convention obligations.

Generally activity data has used from Central Statistical Bureau, Ministry of Agriculture,

different enterprises and other institutions.

The deadline for submitting to LEGMC activity data and its description for all institutions

involved in inventory process is 1st of November; only final data regarding fuel consumption

was received until 30th of November when CSB prepared Energy balances for EUROSTAT

according to additional agreement.

More detailed information on methodologies and activity data is given in the description of

the sectors in chapters 3-8.

1.4 DESCRIPTION OF KEY SOURCE CATEGORIES

The Key category analysis (KCA) for years 1990 and 2012 was done by LEGMC according to

EMEP/EEA 2013 Level assessment. According to EMEP/EEA 2013 Guidelines, key categories

are emission sources which contribute to 80% of the total national emissions. The KCA was

performed for each reported pollutant separately. The key categories for 1990 and 2012 are

shown in Figure 1.1 and Figure 1.2.

Figure 1.1 Key categories in 1990

In 1990, the main categories for pollutants’ emissions in Latvia were Energy – stationary

combustion (NFR 1A1, 1A2, 1A4) and fugitive emissions (1B), as well as Transport (NFR 1A3,

1A5) sectors. Public electricity and heat production (NFR 1A1a), Commercial/Institutional (NFR

1A4a i), Residential sector (NFR 1A4bi) and Road Transport sector (NFR 1A3b) were sectors

which produce greatest part of the emissions. The majority of NH3 emissions were produced

by Agriculture sector (NFR 4). NMVOC emissions are also produced by Industrial Processes

(NFR 2) and Solvent and other product use (NFR 3) sectors which can be considered as key

categories.

Figure 1.2 Key categories in 2012

As it can be seen in Figure 1.1 and Figure 1.2 above, the key sources have slightly changed in

2012, comparing with 1990. The main key source for the majority of pollutants have remained

– Residential sector (NFR 1A4b i). Also the Road transport (NFR 1A3b i) have remained as a key

category for CO and Pb emissions. Changes in main emission sources can be seen in HCB

emissions, where waste incineration constitutes 10.9%, SOx emissions, where 13.3% of

national emissions are produced in Industrial Processes – Cement production (NFR 2A1) sector,

as well as NMVOC, where 38.7% are produced in Solvent and other product use sector instead

of 18% in 1990. The main producers of particulate matter emissions are Energy and Industrial

processes sectors.

1.5 QUALITY ASSURANCE/QUALITY CONTROL

The following Quality control (QA/QC) activities were carried out in the inventory preparation

process:

Processing;

Handling,

Documentation;

Recalculations;

Cross – checking.

The inventory is archived each year and it is possible to regenerate information.

Quality Control (QC):

Quality Control (QC) is a system of routine technical activities, to measure and control the

quality of the inventory as it is being developed. The QC system is designed to:

Provide routine and consistent checks to ensure data correctness and completeness;

Identify and address errors and omissions;

Document and archive inventory material.

QC activities include general methods such as accuracy checks on data acquisition and

calculations and the use of approved standardized procedures for emission calculations,

measurements, estimating uncertainties, archiving information and reporting. These activities

are implemented by sector experts and national inventory compiler.

Before submitting data to CEIP/EEA NFR formats were checked with RepDab.

Quality assurance (QA)

Quality Assurance (QA) activities include a planned system of review procedures conducted by

personnel not directly involved in the inventory compilation/development process. In the

inventory preparation process, general quality control procedures have been applied. Some

specific quality control procedures related to check of activity data and emission factors were

carried out.

Before submitting IIR to CEIP/EEA, data were approved by The Ministry of the Environmental

Protection and Regional Development.

1.6 GENERAL UNCERTAINTY EVALUATION

The calculation of uncertainty estimates was made according to the Tier 1 method presented

by the IPCC GPG 2000. The Tier 1 method is based on emission estimates and uncertainty

coefficients for activity data and emission factors.

Page 19: Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report - Meteo.lv€¦ · Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report 1990 - 2012 Submitted under the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution

Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report | 2014

20

Uncertainty coefficients have been assigned based on expert judgement or on default

uncertainty estimates according to IPCC GPG 2000, EMEP/EEA 2009 and EMEP/EEA 2013,

because there is a lack of the information about background data to make actual calculations.

For each source, the uncertainty for activity data and emission factors was estimated and given

in per cent. The uncertainty analysis was done for the all sectors: Energy, Industrial Processes,

Solvent and Other Product Use, Agriculture, LULUCF and Waste. Uncertainties were estimated

only for main pollutants - NOx, CO, NMVOC, SOx and NH3. However, it is planned to include

uncertainty assessment also for other pollutants.

Table 1.1 Uncertainty assessment for main pollutants

Overall uncertainty, % Trend uncertainty, %

NOx 63.53 38.95

NMVOC 90.9 84.2

SOx 72.93 12.51

NH3 89.17 24.68

CO 98.81 69.89

Complete set of reporting tables for main pollutants can be found in Annex 4.

1.7 GENERAL ASSESSMENT OF THE COMPLETENESS

2. AIR POLLUTANT EMISSION TRENDS

2.1. OVERVIEW

The emission estimates of air pollutants in Latvia include following emissions: sulphur dioxide,

nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, non-methane volatile organic compounds, ammonia,

particulates (TSP, PM10, PM2.5), heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic, chromium,

copper, nickel, vanadium, zinc), PAHs, PCBs and DIOX.

2.2. MAIN POLLUTANTS (NOX, NMVOC, SOX, NH3, CO)

Sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, non-methane volatile organic

compounds and ammonia emissions are shown in Figure 2.1.

Figure 2.1 SO2, NOx, CO, NMVOC, NH3 emissions in 1990-2012 (Gg)

SO2

Since 1990 to 2012 the total SO2 emissions have decreased by 97.65%. The reduction is mainly

due to use of fuels with lower content of sulphur as well as fuel switching from solid and liquid

types of fuel to natural gas and biomass. The main source of emissions is Energy sector. In

2012, the sulphur dioxide emissions are 2.41 Gg, generally from the Energy sector.

NOx

The total NOx emissions have decreased by 58.16% from 1990 to 2012. Generally the reduction

is due to decrease of total fuel consumption that was caused by transformation of national

economy as well as energy efficiency and control measures and also solid fuels and heavy

liquid fuels replacement with natural gas and biomass fuels. In 2012, the total nitrogen oxides

emissions are 35.23 Gg, generated mainly in the Energy sector (including Transport sector).

NH3

The total ammonia emissions have decreased approximately by 60.14% from 1990 to 2012.

72% of NH3 emissions are produced from agricultural activities in 2012, and the remaining

producers of ammonia are Energy and Waste sectors. Since 2000, it is observed that total

ammonia emissions have slightly increased by 28% due to increasing use of nitrogen fertilizers

and some categories of livestock.

CO

The CO emission trend shows a decrease of emissions for period 1990 – 2012 by 57.77%.

Carbon monoxide emissions, total 160.71 Gg (2012), originates generally from the Energy

sector. Residential sector generates the biggest part of the total CO emissions – 71.03%.

NMVOC

The total emissions of non-methane volatile organic compounds are 54.25 Gg in 2012 and

have decreased by 32.10% from 1990 to 2012. NMVOC emissions mainly are generated in

Solvents sector (Domestic solvent use including fungicides and Other product use) – 32% -,

and Energy sector (Residential stationary plants) – 31.31% in 2012.

2.3. PARTICULATE MATTER (PM2.5, PM10, TSP)

PM emissions are shown in the Figure 2.2.

Figure 2.2 Emissions of particulate matter in 2000-2012 (Gg)

PM emissions have an increasing trend from 2000 to 2012 (PM2.5 – 12.30%; PM10 – 22.30%, TSP

– 50.84%) and it is because of increased amount of used fuel. Almost all Particulate Matter

emissions are produced in Energy sector, especially Residential sector which is a key source

for particulate matter – PM2.5 is 74.38%, PM10 – 60.23% and TSP – 45.16% in year 2012

respectively. It is explained with large amounts of wood and wood wastes combusted in this

sector. An increase in emissions in 2004 can be explained with increased activities in Road

paving sector – in particular year VIA Baltica that connects the capitals of all Baltic States was

built.

Figure 2.3 Emissions of heavy metals in 1990-2012 (Mg)

Fluctuation of heavy metals emissions reflects changes in economical situation when country

had a transition from command economy to market economy. Since 2007, heavy metal

emissions have a decreasing trend with an exception of zinc and cadmium emissions that are

fluctuating. Most of zinc emissions are produced by combusting biomass and Zn emission

factor for biomass is higher than emission factors of other pollutants, therefore emissions of

zinc are remarkably high.

Figure 2.4 Lead emissions in 1990-2012 (Mg)

The most relevant changes in emissions of heavy metals can be seen in lead emissions (Figure

2.4). Comparing with year 1990 lead emissions have decreased by 96.18%. The most

significant decrease of lead emissions by 86.17% can be seen on year 1999 which can be

explained with changes in international legislation which prohibited to use liquid fuels with

high lead content. In 2012, the main source of lead was 1 A 3 b i – Road transport: Passenger

cars with 34.42% of total emissions.

2.5. PERSISTENT ORGANIC POLLUTANTS (DIOX, PAHS, PCB, HCB)

PAH

The PAHs emissions are shown in the Figure 2.5. The PCB and HCB emissions are shown in the

Figure 2.6.

Figure 2.5 PAH emissions in 1990-2012 (Mg)

As it can be seen from Figure 2.5, since 1999 total PAH emissions slightly differ from

summarized benzo(a)pyrene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene and indeno(1,2,3-

cd)pyrene emissions. It is because of unavailability of segregated emission factors for each

pollutant for industrial waste incineration (consumed in Manufacturing and Construction

Industries for energy purposes), where emission factor only for total PAHs emissions can be

found. The difference in 1999-2012 is 0.1-2.6% between total PAHs and sum of particular

pollutants.

PAH emissions have decreased in 1990–2012 by 27.2%, although the trend in the time series

could be considered as stable with fluctuations in the beginning of 90-ties and in the recent

years which can be explained with changes in national economy and also weather conditions

which influenced the consumption of particular fuels. 81.45% from PAHs in 2012 are generated

in 1 A 4 b Residential sector and mainly in solid biomass combustion processes. It has to be

noted that PAHs emissions from solid biomass combustion in 1 A 4 b sector are estimated

using default Tier1 methodology and Tier1 emission factors from EMEP/EEA 2013. Amount of

solid biomass combusted in different types of combustion installation types are not available

yet. The PAHs emissions reported in Submission 2014 is assumed as potentially overestimated

as in the latest years more efficient small combustion installations are used in the households.

It is planned to use Tier 2 method and emission factors for next inventories as some studies

will be carried out. In 2014 a research on obtaining detailed data on households has been

started.

In 2012, 7.83% of PAHs emissions are reported as generated in on-site slash burning in the

forests (sector 7A). These emissions are potentially overestimated as there is no precise

information on burned amounts therefore the expert's assumption is used.

Figure 2.6 Emissions of HCB and PCB in 1990-2012 (kg)

HCB emissions have increased by 81.04% from 1990-2012. Emissions have slightly increased

because of an increasing use of wood and wood wastes consumption in stationary fuel

combustion sector. HCB emissions from stationary fuel combustion are estimated only from

solid fuels – coal and coke, and solid biomass combustion activities. 41.45% from HCB

emissions in 2012 are generated in 1 A 4 b Residential sector and mainly in solid biomass

combustion processes. As default Tier1 methodology and Tier1 emission factors from

EMEP/EEA 2013 are used in HCB emissions estimation the emissions are also potentially

overestimated. For detailed emissions estimation fuel combustion divided in used combustion

technology is needed so that Tier2 emission factors from EMEP/EEA 2013 would be possible

to use. In 2014 a research on obtaining detailed data on households has been started.

PCB emissions had decreased in 1990-2012 by 85.94%. In 2012, almost all PCB emissions are

produced in Energy sector, mainly in Manufacturing and Construction Industries (55.61% in

2012).

Figure 2.7 Emissions of DIOX in 1990-2012 (g I-Teq)

DIOX emissions have a fluctuating trend and it is connected with biomass combustion

processes. Approximately 95% emissions from all DIOX emissions are generated in the Energy

sector, but the biggest part from Energy sector emissions is generated in the Residential sector

(71.34% from total 2012 emissions).

Dioxins emission increase in 1990-1991 is explained with crisis in national economy when

country went through a total restructuring – consumption of imported liquid and solid fuels

decreased but consumption of solid biomass as in-country type of fuel increased.

Emission fluctuation in 1996-2000 is explained with fuel consumption decrease due to crisis

in neighbourhood Russian Federation and fluctuations of emissions from waste sector –

cremation. However, in year 2001 the consumption of solid fuels grew due to less use of liquid

fuels and use of biomass instead.

DIOX emission decrease in 2004-2005 can be explained with relatively high temperatures in

winter when there less biomass used, but emissions’ increase in 2008-2009 by 12.28% can

be explained with the increase of solid biomass consumption due to relatively low average

temperature in winter. Since 2010, DIOX emissions are increasing, mainly due to high

temperatures in winter. The DIOX emissions increase is affected by the same reasons as in the

beginning of 90ties – the crisis in national economy and the implemented measures to

decrease the financial problems in country – the increase of VAT and other taxes, increase of

prices, decrease of purchasing capacity of population. Also the global fuel market problems

that caused increase of fuel price and the implementation of EU ETS were some of the reasons

why companies switched their activities to in-country type of fuel use.

3. ENERGY SECTOR (NFR 1)

3.1 SECTOR OVERVIEW

3.1.1 Quantitative overview

Both the imported (natural gas, liquid gas, oil and oil products, coal) and local fuels (wood,

peat, hydro resources) are used in the Energy sector in Latvia (Table 3.1). Mainly the imported

fuels (natural gas and heavy oil) are used in heat generation. Smaller boiler houses burn local

fuel and coal as well.

The use of natural gas as a primary energy resource has grown increasingly since middle of

the nineties. The largest consumers of natural gas are combined heat and power plant, and

heat generation enterprises as well as industrial enterprises.

Oil products have an important place in the Latvian energy resource market; their market share

is about 30.63% in 2012, including heavy fuel – residual fuel oil and shale oil, with about 0.32%

of total energy consumption. The residual fuel oil consumption has a significant decrease - in

1990 it was 20.81% from total fuel consumption, but in 2012 it is 0.30%. The significant

decrease of heavy oil share in energy balance is explained with implementation of the EU

Directive 1999/32/EC prescribing that sulphur content of heavy oil must not exceed 1%. The

biggest part from liquid fuel consumption contributes to gasoline and diesel oil with

approximately 78% from total liquid fuel consumption where gasoline is mostly consumed in

transport sector and only a small part is used in off-roads. Diesel oil consumption divides by

combusted in transport sector – 73.9%, and combusted in stationary combustion installations

– 26.1% from total diesel oil consumption.

Total share of solid fuels in national market is quite low – approximately 2.01%. The solid fuel

consumption in last years is stable although the consumption had decreased by 87.07% since

1990. From 2009 to 2011 solid fuel consumption had increased by 29.42% that is mainly

explained with an increase of coal consumption, but in year 2011-2012 there can be seen a

decrease in emissions by 17.09% due to reduced use of coal.

Natural gas consumption has a stable place in total fuel consumption where natural gas

consumption is 32.86% in 1990 and 26.66% in 2012. Natural gas consumption has decreased

by 49.02% in 1990-2012. Recent years until 2011 the consumption of natural gas has an

increasing trend – from 2009 to 2010 even by 19.33%, but in 2010-2012 there can be seen a

decrease of natural gas by 17.14%.

Biomass fuels are wood and wood products, straw, charcoal and biofuels. In the total fuel

consumption the share of firewood and other wood products is quite substantial and has

reached its peak point 27.8% in 2010 by the side of 1990 when firewood consumption was

only about 9.1% from total energy consumption. However, in 2010-2011 the consumption of

wood and wood products dropped but in 2011-2012 it increased reaching 27.55% of all fuels

consumed.

In latest years liquid and gaseous biofuels are becoming more popular and from 0.056% in

2005 to 2012 their consumption has reached 0.49%. In latest years also such biomass fuels

as straws are used, and it has an increasing tendency with fluctuations, especially in year 2011,

which can mainly be explained with warm winter.

There are also used tires and municipal wastes used as fuel in the latest years, and the most

significant increase can be observed in year 2011 – comparing with year 2010 the consumption

of other fuels has increased by 96.51% and reached 1.10% from total share. However, in year

2012 the increase of other fuels consumed was not as rapid as in previous year, and the

increase in other fuels’ use in 2011-2012 was 11.42%, and the share of total fuel amount

consumed was 1.22% in 2012.

Hydroelectric power plants (HPP) and combined heat and power plants (CHP) produce part of

the electrical power, while part is imported (Table 3.2, Table 3.3). Volume of electricity

generation directly depends on the through-flow of the river Daugava. Also the import of

electricity from Russia, Estonia and Lithuania has a quite substantial role in the electricity

supply.

Stationary combustion is the most important source for NMVOCs, CO, PM2.5, PM10, TSP, Hg,

Dioxins, PAHs and HCBs emissions.

Figure 3.1 Distribution of emissions in Stationary combustion by subsectors in 2012 (%)

NOx emissions generated in stationary fuel combustion sectors are 36.97% from total

emissions in 2012. The largest part – 8.04% of total NOx emissions are generated in 1A2f i

Other manufacturing industries and Construction sector, as well as in 1A4b i Residential sector

with 7.43% of total emissions.

SOx emissions from stationary fuel combustion were 68.46% from total SOx emissions in 2012,

and 1 A 2 sector was the most important with 31.24%. The SOx emissions from stationary fuel

combustion have lost the importance because of constant decrease of sulphur containing

fuels.

Stationary fuel combustion generated 43.04% NMVOC emissions of the total Latvia’s NMVOC

emissions in 2012 with residential sector as the most important with 31.31%. The most

important source for NMVOC emissions from stationary fuel combustion is solid biomass

combustion.

The largest part of NH3 emissions in stationary fuel combustion are produced in residential

sector – in 2012 there are produced 10.24% of total NH3 emissions. According to EMEP/EEA

2013, there are no emission factors for NH3 emission estimation in 1A1 sector, therefore

notation key NE in particular sector was used.

In 2012 stationary fuel combustion sectors accounted 80.95% of the total Latvia’s CO

emissions. Residential plants were the largest emission source accounting for 71.03% of total

Latvia’s CO emissions.

Stationary fuel combustion generated 88.42% of total Latvia’s PM2.5 emissions, 71.94% of the

Latvia’s total PM10 emissions and 54.02% of the Latvia’s total TSP emissions in 2012. Mainly

particulate matters are generated in biomass combustion.

In 2012 stationary fuel combustion accounted 96.11% of the Latvia’s total mercury emissions.

biomass fuel combustion. Cadmium emissions from stationary fuel combustion account

97.92% from total emissions, and residential sector is the biggest producer of cadmium

emissions in stationary fuel combustion sector with 57.10% from total Cd emissions.

Stationary fuel combustion is main producer of POPs emissions – PCDDs, PAHs, HCB and PCBs.

For Submission 2014, HCB emissions only from solid fuels and solid biomass combustion were

estimated therefore residential sector is the largest sector of HCB emissions with 41.45% of

total stationary fuel combustion emissions. Solid biomass combustion is the main source of

PAHs emissions in 2012 therefore residential and other manufacturing industries are the

biggest emitters of PAHs emissions with 81.45% and 7.83% respectively. Stationary fuel

combustion is a key source with 94.17% for the PCDDs emissions where solid biomass and

solid fuels are the main emitters for the particular emissions.

The majority of total emissions from stationary fuel combustion has decreased in 1990-2012,

except for NMVOC, NH3, Cr, Zn, dioxins and HCB emissions. An increase in particular

emissions is directly related with the increased use of biomass in 1990-2012.

SOx had the biggest decrease in time period 1990–2012 by 98.29% (Table 3.6) and in 2011-

2012 SOx emissions have decreased by 28.76%. The emission decrease is explained with fuel

switch from heavy liquid fuels and solid fuels to natural gas and biomass use to cut the

increased costs of these fuels and to meet the commitments of EU ETS. The decrease of SOx

emissions from Energy industries sector in latest years is explained with the methodology

change when emissions were taken from national database “2-AIR” for 2005-2012 where all

air polluters have to report their emission data.

There is also a remarkable decrease in NOx emissions by 71.77%, that can be explained with

change in fuel types – solid fuels widely used previously were changed to biomass that has

lower NOx emission factor, therefore the emissions decreased.

NMVOC and NH3 emissions, however, have increased by 9.06% and 58.11% in 1990-2012,

accordingly, which is mainly because of increased use of biomass, especially in case of NH3

emissions which currently are calculated only from biomass burning processes in 1A2 and 1A4

sectors.

Particulate matter emissions constantly increased in 2000-2012 in total that is explained with

an increase of wood and wood products consumption in residential, commercial and

institutional combustion plants. Since 2005 particulate matters emissions have decreased due

to the decrease of total fuel consumption as well as with increase of natural gas consumption

in commercial and institutional buildings instead of wood and wood products consumption.

In 2008-2009 the particulate matters’ emissions again increased by little less than 12% due

to sharp increase of solid biomass consumption influenced by development of EU ETS sector

as well as by economical crisis that resulted in higher taxes (and total price) of other imported

types of fuels – diesel oil, natural gas, coal, that were introduced by the government to increase

total income in national economy. In 2011-2012 particulate matter emissions slightly

increased due to increase of biomass consumption.

The majority of heavy metal emissions have decreased by 44.49%–96.27% in 1990-2012.

Decrease of heavy metal emissions is explained with a decrease of total fuel consumption in

early 90-ties due to economical crisis in country. In the latest years heavy metal emissions

decreased due to fuel switch from heavy liquid and solid fuels to natural gas and biomass

consumption where heavy metal emissions are negligible, except for zinc that has the highest

emission factor of all heavy metals. All emissions in 2011-2012 have increased with an

exception of Ni emissions. It is also explained with the increase of solid biomass share in total

stationary combusted fuel consumption amount.

PAH emissions have decreased by 25.62% (total PAHs) in 1990-2012, HCB emissions increased

by 58.81% and PCDDs emissions increased by 14.61% in 1990-2012 that is explained with

sharp increase of solid biomass consumption. The decrease of PCBs emissions by 86.12% is

explained with solid fuels consumption decrease – solid fuels have significantly higher

emission factor than solid biomass therefore the decrease of first mentioned has a bigger

effect.

3.2.2 Energy Industries (NFR 1A1)

3.2.2.1 Overview

1A1 Energy industries sector include emissions from fuel combustion in point sources in

energy production including emissions from off–road. Fuel consumption in autoproducer

combustion installations is excluded from this sector and included in particular sectors of 1A2,

1A4a and 1A4c sectors according to IPCC 1996.

Emissions from combustion installations with NACE 2 codes 35.11 and 35.30 are reported in

1A1a sector. There are no direct electricity production only plants in Latvia. There are no

petroleum reifneries in Latvia. 1A1 sector also includes the emissions from on-site use of fuel

in the energy production facilities and emissions from manufacturing of solid fuels (peat

briquettes and charcoal production plants) – these emissions are reported under 1A1c

Manufacture of solid fuels and other energy industries sector.

Almost all emissions from 1A1 sector have decreased in 1990-2012 with an exception of PAHs

and dioxins, as well as PCB emissions that can mainly be explained with decrease of liquid and

solid fuels consumption and increased use of biomass consumption in 1A1 sector.

NOx and SOx emissions for 1.A.1 sector are taken from national database “2-AIR” where all

polluters and combustors report their emission data therefore in the emission measuring the

best available technique is taken into account. Lasting decrease of emissions is explained with

high standards of physical characterization of fuels and fuel switching to the fuels with lower

costs and emissions – natural gas and biomass.

3.2.2.3 Methods

Tier 1 method was used to calculate emissions from the stationary fuel combustion.

Calculation of all emissions from fuel combustion is done with Excel databases developed by

experts from LEGMC.

9 For PMs the base year is 2000 instead of 1990

The general method for preparing inventory data was used:

qBEFEm

where:

Em – total emissions (Gg)

EF – emission factor (t/TJ)

Bq – amount of fuel in thermal units (TJ)

For NFR 1A1a sector NOx and SOx emission data of 2005-2012 from combined heat and power

plants as well as heat production only plants are taken from database “2-AIR” where

enterprises that do any pollution activity and have A, B or C category pollution permits report

their emission data.

3.2.2.4 Emission factors

The main source for emission factors is EMEP/EEA 2013 (emission factors used for Energy

sector are presented in Annex I, Table 1).

SOx emissions factors were calculated by formula taken from IPCC Guidelines and were

calculated by national expert considering physical characterizations of types of fuels used in

Latvia and national and international legislation. Percentage amount of sulphur content in used

fuels is taken from national database “2-AIR” where polluters report the sulphur content data

for certain types of fuels (Annex I, Table 2).

Emission factors for SOx are calculated by using following equation.

where:

EF – emission Factor (kg/TJ)

s – sulphur content in fuel (%)

r – retention of sulphur in ash (%)

Q – net calorific value (TJ/kt)

106 – (unit) conversion factor

n – efficiency of abatement technology and/or reduction efficiency (%).

The default emission factors used in emission estimations were taken from EMEP/EEA 2013

(Annex I). Emission factors for sludge gas were equalled to natural gas emission factors due

to unavailability of particular emission factors for sludge gas. Emission factors for biodiesel

were equalled to diesel emission factor.

3.2.2.5 Activity data

Mainly emissions from fuel combustion are calculated using fuel consumption data from the

CSB prepared within Annual questionnaires for 1990-2012 sent to EUROSTAT. In the

EUROSTAT tables fuel consumption mainly is in natural units (kt, millions m3) therefore net

calorific values provided by CSB are used to calculate fuel consumption into terajoules, except

for natural gas where NCVs are taken from the natural gas company as noted previously. Data

on fuel consumption in 1A1 sector are presented in Annex 5.

The CSB data collection system is based on detailed compulsory survey 2-EK (annual). Form

2-EK “Survey on acquisition and consumption of energy resources” is collected from about

Page 39: Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report - Meteo.lv€¦ · Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report 1990 - 2012 Submitted under the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution

5000 enterprises and organizations (with all kind of economic activity) that are included in the

lists of suppliers of statistical information.

Approximately 5000 respondents – all enterprises of the local governments regardless their

number of employed and other enterprises employing 80 and more persons – were surveyed.

Enterprises and organizations employing less than 80 persons were surveyed by the random

sampling and afterwards the acquired results were extrapolated. 2–EK represents the basic

tool for creating energy balances at a country level.

In Figure 3.2 Fuel consumption in 1.A.1 Energy Industries in 1990-2012 (PJ) there can be seen

fuel consumption by fuel types in 1990-2012. The largest amounts of fuel types consumed

are gaseous fuels in the whole time series and liquid fuels in the beginning of 1990-ties. The

amounts of biomass consumed are slightly increasing, while the amounts of solid fuels are

decreasing.

Figure 3.2 Fuel consumption in 1.A.1 Energy Industries in 1990-2012 (PJ)

The biggest decrease in time period 1990–2012 for the two sub-sectors of 1.A.1 Energy

industries sector was for liquid fuel due to significant decrease of fuel consumption in 1.A.1.a

subsector by 98.36%. It is explained with fuel switching processes when liquid fuels were

switched to other more low-cost fuels. Also stronger legislation contributed fuel switch to the

type of fuels with lower level of emissions. It also explains why consumption of solid fuels

decreased. However, in the latest years consumption of solid fuels have increased that is

explained with the increase of coal consumption in 1.A.1.a subsector by 400% in 2006-2012.

The increase of solid fuel consumption was promoted by increase of oil price in world when

coal combustion became cheaper than combustion of residual fuel oil and diesel oil.

Consumption of biomass fuel has increased by 1787.17% in 1990–2012. Solid biomass has

lower costs therefore liquid and solid fuels replaced with biomass and natural gas.

Figure 3.3 Fuel consumption in 1.A.1.a sector and average temperature in Latvia (2000-

2012) (PJ)

As it can be seen in Figure 3.3, the fuel consumption in 1.A.1.a sector is related with the

average temperature in heating season (assumed that October-April are average months of

heating season) with an exception of years 2006 where the correlation is not observed which

can be explained with a decrease of central heating supply consumers when they switched to

individual heating supply. Years 2006-2008 had quite high average temperature therefore the

fuel consumption for combined heat plants and heat plants for heat production decreased as

there wasn’t any need of high heat production amount but in 2009-2010 the average

temperature was lower and the use of fuel consumption increased. However in year 2011 the

fuel consumption decreased because of a relatively warm winter, and in year 2012 the

consumption of fuel continued to decrease despite the fall of average temperature.

3.2.2.6 Uncertainties

Uncertainty in activity data of fuel combustion in 1.A.1 sector is ±2% in 2012. CSB gives

approximately 2% statistical sample error for statistical data. According to CSB, as data are

obtained using information given by respondents, this number is a variation coefficient which

characterizes selection of respondents. Total variation coefficient for energy balance is within

2-3%. In Latvia all fossil fuels (oil, natural gas and coal) are imported and import and export

statistics are fairly accurate.

Uncertainty of activity data for solid biomass combustion was assigned as 15% because

biomass activity data were collected by CSB with questionnaires sent by enterprises consumed

biomass. Also, according to IPCC 2000, pg. 2.41, there is more uncertainty for biomass and

traditional fuels, that was a reason for higher uncertainty than for other fuel types. Uncertainty

of biogas stationary combusted in enterprises covered by 1.A.1 Energy Industries sector was

assumed rather low – 2% because the combusted fuel amount is obtained directly from

wastewater treatment plant that has precise measurement equipment for accounting of

combusted fuel. Still the methane percentage amount in combusted sludge gas is given

approximately by the wastewater treatment plant that’s why final uncertainty of combusted

sludge gas is assumed as 20%. Total biomass fuel consumption uncertainty is assumed as 20%

taking into account uncertainties of solid biomass and biogas consumption.

Emission factor uncertainty is assumed as 50%.

3.2.2.7 QA/QC and verification

QA/QC check is performed with Tier 1 method from IPCC 2000 GPG. All findings were

documented by using check-lists and introduced in GHG inventory. All corrections are

archived.

There are several steps for activity data verification:

1) Activity data check at the data providing institution:

CSB has the internal QA/QC procedures based on mathematical model and analysis to

avoid logic mistakes.

2) Activity data checked at the institution responsible for the emission estimation and

reporting:

During the activity data input in emission estimation database done by sectoral expert

all the data changes are compared to previous inventory. The reasons of data changes

are explained.

After the data input in emission estimation database, the activity data is verified using

diagrams that is the best way to reflect all the illogical data fluctuations.

The activity data used in estimations is verified by CSB energy experts by checking the

data input reported in the IIR.

The emissions for CLRTAP emissions in the database are cross-checked with emissions

reported within UNFCCC convention to ascertain if these are equal.

3.2.2.8 Recalculations

Activity data were updated by CSB for wood consumption. Energy consumption less than 1 kt

was taken from Energy balance available on CSB on-line database. Slight changes in natural

gas GCV that influenced the amounts of gas consumed. Landfill gas previously reported in

1.A.1.a was allocated to 1.A.4.a sector. Other liquid fuels were split into waste oils petroleum

coke and other liquid fuels therefore the consumption changed divided by fuel types.

Emissions were recalculated as well due to updates in emission factors in EMEP/EEA 2013

guidebook.

3.2.2.9 Planned improvements

It is planned to use EU ETS data of consumed fuel.

3.2.3 Manufacturing Industries and Construction (NFR 1A2)

3.2.3.1 Overview

NFR 1A2 Manufacturing industries and construction sector include emissions from fuel

combustion in combustion installations for industrial production including emissions from

off–road. NRF 1A2 sector also includes the emissions from on-site use of fuel in the industrial

production facilities (autoproducers) – these emissions are reported under particular sub-

sectors of NFR 1A2 according to IPCC 1996.

Under NFR 1A2f Other sector emissions from following industrial sectors are reported:

increased in 1990-2012 which can be explained with increased amounts of solid fuels and

biomass comparing to 1990/

Emissions from 1A2 are increasing in the latest years with a fluctuating trend in the last years.

The increase in 2000-ties were due to sharp development of nation economy and industry as

well as increase of demand of industrial production and improvement of well-being of

population. Increase of emissions are also caused by constant increase of solid fuels – coal,

and other fuels (used tires) consumption that mostly is combusted in mineral and steel

production industry. Decrease of emissions in 2007-2008 is influenced by the features of

national economy development when in-country industrial production already started to

decrease due to increase of costs of the production and dominance of imported products.

Crisis in national economy in the second half of 2008 also influenced a decrease of total

emissions. In year 2012 there can be seen an increase of all fuel types therefore the majority

of emissions have increased in 2011-2012.

3.2.3.3 Methods

Tier 1 method was used to calculate emissions from the stationary fuel combustion.

Calculation of all emissions from fuel combustion is done with Excel databases developed by

experts from LEGMC.

The general method for preparing inventory data was used:

qBEFEm

where:

Em – total emissions (Gg)

EF – emission factor (t/TJ)

Bq – amount of fuel in thermal units (TJ)

3.2.3.4 Emission factors

The main source for emission factors is EMEP/EEA 2013 (emission factors used for Energy

sector are presented in Annex I, Table 1).

SOx emissions factors were calculated by formula taken from IPCC Guidelines and were

calculated by national expert considering physical characterizations of types of fuels used in

Latvia and national and international legislation. Percentage amount of sulphur content in used

fuels is taken from national database “2-AIR” where polluters report the sulphur content data

for certain types of fuels (Annex I, Table 2).

Emission factors for SOx are calculated by using following equation.

r – retention of sulphur in ash (%)

Q – net calorific value (TJ/kt)

106 – (unit) conversion factor

n – efficiency of abatement technology and/or reduction efficiency (%).

The default emission factors used in estimation of emission were taken from EMEP/EEA 2013

(Annex I). Emission factors for biodiesel were equalled to diesel emission factor.

The municipal wastes consumption is reported in 1A2f, and the emission factors are taken

from Waste sector after In-depth review in 2013 where Energy expert suggested Latvia to use

emission factors from particular sector.

3.2.3.5 Activity data

Emissions from NFR 1.A.2 sector are calculated using fuel consumption data from the CSB

prepared within Annual questionnaires for 1990-2012 sent to EUROSTAT. The data collection

system for 1.A.2 sector is the same as for 1.A.1 sector. Data on fuel consumption in 1.A.2

sector are presented in Annex V.

Autoproducers data prepared by CSP are taken into account calculating emissions from NFR

1.A.2 sector according to IPCC 1996.

Only gasoline combustion is reported as off-roads in 1.A.2 sector. It is sure that diesel oil is

also consumed as off-roads but for now it is not possible for CSB and LEGMC to divide the

consumption between fuel combusted stationary and filled in technological vehicles. Due to

that all diesel oil reported in the sector is estimated as combusted stationary.

Figure 3.4 Fuel consumption in 1.A.2 Manufacturing industries and construction in 1990–

2012 (PJ)

All fuel types with an exception of biomass fuels have decreased in 1990-2012 (Figure 3.4)

when liquid fuels had the biggest decrease in time period by 90.50%. It is explained with fuel

switching processes when liquid fuels were switched to other lower costing fuels. Also stronger

legislation contributed fuel switching to the type of fuels with lower level of emissions.

Decrease of natural gas reflects the total decrease of industrial production if comparing with

1990.

After the crisis in the beginning of 90-ties natural gas consumption steadily increased with

some small exceptions due to fuel switch processes and development of national economy.

The consumption of solid fuels (mainly coal) have been decreasing in 1990-2003 with an

exception of 1993-1994, mainly due to increased use of coal in Construction and Textiles and

Leather sectors. Solid fuels consumption rapidly were growing by 436.97% since 2003 until

2008 and decreased in 2009 by 29.71% due to crisis in national economy. However, starting

from 2009, the consumption of solid fuels has grown by 55.77% until year 2012. The increase

of solid fuel consumption was promoted by the increase of oil price overall the world when

coal combustion was cheaper than combustion of residual fuel oil and diesel oil. The increase

in Latvia is also explained with the development of mineral production sector – cement

production – where coal are consumed.

Consumption of biomass fuel has increased very significantly – by 1994.17% in 1990–2012

with some fluctuations in 2000-2008. Lower costs of solid and liquid biomass free and large

availability of the fuel in-country as well as development of EU ETS were the main reason for

liquid and solid fuels replacement with biomass and natural gas.

Consumption of used tires (information collected from „CEMEX”, the only company which

combusts used tires) and municipal wastes in Mineral production (information taken from

„CEMEX”, the only company which combusts municipal waste for energy purposes) reported

as Other Fuels had increased in 1999-2012 by 5534.94% (2.032 PJ) and continue to increase

year by year. Comparing with 2011, the consumption of wastes has increased by 11.42% in

2012. The increase was influenced by a sharp increase of cement production that was caused

by increasing demand of construction materials and sharp development of construction sector.

3.2.3.6 Uncertainties

Uncertainty in activity data of fuel combustion in 1.A.2 sector is ±2% in 2012. CSB gives

approximately 2% statistical sample error for statistical data. According to CSB, as data are

obtained using information given by respondents, this number is a variation coefficient which

characterizes selection of respondents. Total variation coefficient for energy balance is within

2-3%. In Latvia all fossil fuels (oil, natural gas and coal) are imported and import and export

statistics are fairly accurate.

Uncertainty of activity data for solid biomass combustion was assigned as 15% because

biomass activity data were collected by CSB with questionnaires sent by enterprises consumed

biomass. Also, according to IPCC 2000, pg. 2.41, there is more uncertainty for biomass and

traditional fuels, that was a reason for higher uncertainty than for other fuel types.

Uncertainty of other fuels consumption – municipal and industrial wastes used in mineral

production is assumed also low – 2% as the activity data is obtained from only one producer within

EU ETS therefore the data is verified by accredited verifier and Regional Environmental Board.

Emission factor uncertainty is assumed as 50%

3.2.3.7 QA/QC and verification

QA/QC check is performed with Tier 1 method from IPCC 2000 GPG. All findings were

documented by using check-lists and introduced in GHG inventory. All corrections are

archived.

There are several steps for activity data verification:

1) Activity data check at the data providing institution:

CSB has the internal QA/QC procedures based on mathematical model and analysis to

avoid logic mistakes.

2) Activity data checked at the institution responsible for the emission estimation and

During the activity data input in emission estimation database done by sectoral expert

all the data changes are compared to previous inventory. The reasons of data changes

are explained.

After the data input in emission estimation database, the activity data is verified using

diagrams that is the best way to reflect all the illogical data fluctuations.

The activity data used in estimations is verified by CSB energy experts by checking the

data input reported in the IIR.

The emissions for LRTAP emissions in the database are cross-checked with emissions

reported within UNFCCC convention to ascertain if these are equal.

3.2.3.8 Recalculations

Other liquid fuels were split into waste oils, petroleum coke and other liquid fuels, therefore

changed their NCVs in the whole time series that influenced the consumption of fuels when

calculating consumption in kt to TJ. Natural gas - slight changes in GCV from 37.359 to 37.358

which slightly influenced the consumption of gas used in all subsectors. Slight changes in

1.A.2.a-1.A.2.e sectors generally due to addition of Energy balance data (less than 1 kt) for

several fuels, such as diesel oil and coal (mainly in 2010, 2011). In 1.A.2.f sector activity data

changes for LPG, coal, peat, diesel oil due to addition of Energy balance data. Corrections of

activity data for industrial wastes, where information was precised by the company which

consumes the specific fuel type. Consumed amounts of oil shale in 1990 were added.

Emissions from were recalculated as well due to updates in emission factors in EMEP/EEA 2013

guidebook.

3.2.3.9 Planned improvements

It is planned to use EU ETS data for consumed fuel.

3.2.4 Other sectors (NFR 1A4)

3.2.4.1 Overview

NFR 1A4 Other Sectors include emissions from the small combustion of fuels in

Commercial/Institutional Residential sectors and Agriculture/Forestry/Fisheries. Also

emissions from autoproducers are included in relevant sectors of NFR 1A4 as it is stated that

emissions have to be reported in sector they are produced.

Emissions from mobile machinery used in Commercial (NFR 1A4a ii), Residential (NFR 1A4b ii)

and Agriculture/Forestry (1A4c ii) and Fishery (1A4c iii) sectors are reported as off-road under

Transport chapter.

Almost all emissions have decreased in 1990-2012 1A4 Other Sectors that is explained with

changes and redistribution of structure of national economy as well as with significant

decrease of fuel consumption in the sector. Increase of emissions in 2008–2009 is explained

with development of national economy and well-being of population. But in years 2009-2010

there can be seen a decrease in emissions, which can be explained with consequences caused

by crisis. The emissions are also affected by weather conditions and increase of individual

heating supply consumers in 1A4b Residential sector. The increase of gaseous fuels

consumption, steady biomass fuel consumption and increase of peat consumption caused the

increase of all emissions with the exception of SOx and PCBs emissions. Also high costs of

liquid fuels and increase of natural gas prices in Latvia have caused the situation when

previously used fuels had switched to biomass.

3.2.4.3 Methods

Tier 1 method was used to calculate emissions from the stationary fuel combustion.

Calculation of all emissions from fuel combustion is done with Excel databases developed by

(Annex I). Emission factors for landfill gas were equalled to natural gas emission factors due

to unavailability of particular emission factors for sludge gas. Emission factors for biodiesel

were equalled to diesel emission factor.

3.2.4.5 Activity data

Emissions from 1A4 sector werecalculated using fuel consumption data from the CSB prepared

within Annual questionnaires for 1990-2012 sent to EUROSTAT. The data collection system

for 1A4 sector is the same as for 1A1 and 1A2 sectors. Data for 1A4b sector were obtained by

CSB with household surveys done once in 5 years and using extrapolation for the years in

between.

Autoproducers data prepared by CSB were taken into account into the calculation of the

emissions from 1A4 sector according to IPCC 1996.

Only gasoline combustion is reported as off-roads in 1A4 sector. It is sure that diesel oil is

also consumed as off-roads but for now it is not possible for CSB and LEGMC to divide the

consumption between fuel combusted stationary and filled in technological vehicles. Due to

that all diesel oil reported in the sector is estimated as combusted stationary, with an

exception of Fisheries, where it is assumed that all diesel is consumed for off-road use.

Figure 3.5 Fuel consumption in 1.A.4 Other sectors in 1990–2012 (PJ)

The biggest decrease in 1990-2012 was for solid fuel consumption – 95.73% and liquid fuels

consumption – 71.79% (Figure 3.5). It is explained with fuel switching processes when solid

and liquid fuels were changed to other less costing fuels. Also stronger legislation contributed

fuel switching to the type of fuels with lower level of emissions.

Liquid fuels Solid fuels Gaseous fuels Biomass

Since 1990 biomass as a fuel dominates in Other Sectors. The biggest part of solid biomass

consumption goes to Residential sector where biomass is the main fuel in small capacity

burning installations. Consumption of biomass fuel has increased substantially by 27.53% in

1990–2012 in Other Sectors.

Since 1997 gaseous fuel consumption is constantly increasing until 2007. These are types of

fuels with lower costs to whom liquid and solid fuels were switched. Fuel consumption increase

in Other Sectors is strongly linked to fuel consumption decrease in Energy industries when

central heating supply consumers switched to individual heating supply. In the latest years

fluctuations of gaseous fuel are observed. The consumption of gaseous fuel decreased by

12.50% in 2010-2011, and increased by 1.49% in 2011-2012.

Figure 3.6 Fuel consumption in 1.A.4.b and average temperature in Latvia (2003-2012)

As it can be seen in Figure 3.6, the fuel consumption in 1.A.4 sector is related with the average

temperature in heating season (assumed that October-April are average months of heating

season) with an exception of years 2005-2007 which can be explained with a decrease of

central heating supply consumers when they switched to individual heating supply. Years

2007-2008 had quite high average temperature therefore the amounts of fuel consumed

decreased. In years 2009-2010 the average temperature decreased significantly, but the fuel

consumption was less than expected due to negative effect of financial crisis. In year 2011 the

average temperature increased rapidly if compared with year 2010, and the amounts of fuel

consumed decreased by 12.65%. However, in year 2012 the temperature decreased again and

fuel consumption increased by 4.52% - less than expected due to extensive heat isolation of

residential buildings as well as increase of fuel price that forced people save fuel.

3.2.4.6 Uncertainties

Uncertainty in activity data of fuel combustion in 1.A.4 sector is ±2% in 2012. CSB gives

approximately 2% statistical sample error for statistical data. According to CSB, as data are

obtained using information given by respondents, this number is a variation coefficient which

characterizes selection of respondents. Total variation coefficient for energy balance is within

2-3%. In Latvia all fossil fuels (oil, natural gas and coal) are imported and import and export

statistics are fairly accurate.

Uncertainty of activity data for solid biomass combustion was assigned as 15% because

biomass activity data were collected by CSB with questionnaires sent by enterprises consumed

biomass. Also, according to IPCC 2000, pg. 2.41, there is more uncertainty for biomass and

traditional fuels, that was a reason for higher uncertainty than for other fuel types. Uncertainty

of biogas stationary combusted in enterprises covered by 1.A.4.a Commercial / Institutional

sector was assumed rather low – 2% because the combusted fuel amount is obtained directly

from wastewater treatment plant that has precise measurement equipment for accounting of

combusted fuel. Still the methane percentage amount in combusted sludge gas is given

approximate by the wastewater treatment plant that’s why final uncertainty of combusted

sludge gas is assumed as 20%. Taking into account uncertainties of solid biomass and biogas

consumption total biomass fuel consumption uncertainty is assumed as 20%.

Uncertainty of activity data for solid biomass combustion was assigned as 15% because

biomass activity data were collected by CSB with questionnaires sent by enterprises consumed

biomass. As fuel consumption in 1.A.4.b Residential sector is obtained only every 5 years using

questionnaire and data are extrapolated until the next survey, therefore the uncertainty of all

fuel consumption in residential sector is assumed 50%.

Emission factor uncertainty is assumed as 50% for 1A4a I and 1A4c I sectors, and 100% for

1A4b I sector.

3.2.4.7 QA/QC and verification

QA/QC check is performed with Tier 1 method from IPCC 2000 GPG. All findings were

documented by using check-lists and introduced in GHG inventory. All corrections are

archived.

There are several steps for activity data verification:

1) Activity data check at the data providing institution:

CSB has the internal QA/QC procedures based on mathematical model and analysis to

avoid logic mistakes.

2) Activity data checked at the institution responsible for the emission estimation and

The activity data used in estimations is verified by CSB energy experts by checking the

data input reported in the IIR.

The emissions for CLRTAP emissions in the database are cross-checked with emissions

reported within UNFCCC convention to ascertain if these are equal.

3.2.4.8 Recalculations

Other liquid fuels were split into waste oils, petroleum coke and other liquid fuels, therefore

changed their NCVs in the whole time series that influenced the consumption of fuels when

calculating consumption in kt to TJ. Natural gas - slight changes in GCV from 37.359 to 37.358

which slightly influenced the consumption of gas used in all subsectors. Input mistake in coal

consumption (1.A.4.a; 2001), straw consumption and CO2 emissions (1.A.4.a; 2006-2010),

wood consumption (2008). Corrected activity data provided by CSB for coal (2011). Data from

Energy balance (less than 1 kt) added for LPG, RFO (2010, 2011). The consumption of jet fuel

was allocated from 1.A.5.b sector (1.A.4.c) for years 1995-2000. Diesel used for fishing was

changed from stationary to mobile offroad (boats) after experts assumption that all diesel

used could be considered as used for offroads.

Emissions from were recalculated as well due to updates in emission factors in EMEP/EEA 2013

guidebook.

3.2.4.9 Planned improvements

It is planned to investigate amounts of fuel used for fishing (off-road purposes) with

collaboration with CSB.

More detailed activity data by technology types for Residential sector is planned to be obtained

as Residential sector is a key source. In 2014 a research on obtaining detailed data on

households has been started.

3.3 TRANSPORT (NFR 1A3, NFR 1A5)

3.3.1 Sector overview

3.3.1.1 Source category description

Transport sector is a major contributor to national NOx and Pb emissions in 2012. The sector

includes civil aviation, road transport, railways, domestic navigation and off-road transport as

well. Road Transport includes all transportation types of vehicles on roads: passenger cars,

light duty vehicles, buses, heavy-duty vehicles and motorcycles and mopeds. It does not cover

farm and forest tractors driving occasionally on the roads because these are included in “Other

sectors” as off–roads (NFR 1A2f ii, 1A4a ii, 1A4b ii, 1A4c ii). Railway Transport includes railway

transport operated by diesel locomotives. Civil Aviation includes helicopters, airplanes with

turbojet engine and airplanes with piston engines. Military aircrafts are included in Other (NFR

1A5b). Domestic Navigation compromises for miscellaneous vessels (tugs, barges, towboats,

icebreakers), recreational crafts and personal boats. However, emissions from fishing boats

are included in NFR 1A4c iii sector.

Table 3.10 shows the methods and source for activity data and emission factors used for

emission calculating in Transport sector. Table 3.11 shows list of pollutants which are

produced in Transport sector.

3.3.1.2 Key sources

Figure 3.7 Distribution of emissions in Transport sector by subsectors in 2012 (%)

The biggest part of Transport emissions take up Road Transport, then follows Railways and

off-road emissions (Figure 3.7). The only exception is SOx emissions where railway is the main

source of emissions. Civil aviation and domestic navigation contribute a very small part of

transport emissions.

3.3.1.3 Trends in emissions

Figure 3.8 Fuel consumption in Transport sector in 2011 and 2012 (TJ)

In 2012, total fuel consumption in the transport sector, compared to 2011 level, has decreased

by 4 % points (Figure 3.8). In different subsectors various changes have taken place in 2012. In

domestic civil aviation the fuel consumption has increased 3 times, whereas in the road transport

it has decreased by 4.5 % points. In the railway the fuel consumption has increased by 5.7 %

points, but in domestic navigation it has decreased by 19% points. In total, road transport

consumes about 91%, railway – about 8.9% and domestic civil aviation and domestic navigation

– the remaining share of fuel.

Diesel oil is the major fuel type in the transport sector and it constitutes 67.7 %, and is followed

by gasoline – 25.3 %, but LPG constitutes 4.8% and biofuels (biodiesel and bioethanol) 2.1% of

the total fuel consumption in the transport sector. A share of biofuels has decreased from 2.3%

in year 2011 up to 2.1% in year 2012.

Generally the largest part of emissions have decreased in 1990-2012 (Table 3.12) with an

exception of NH3, CR, CU and PAHs. NH3 emissions are likely to increase due to the increasing

number of vehicles equipped with catalytic systems for combustion gas treatment. However,

the amounts of ammonia produced in Transport sector are very small, that the significant

increase in Transport sector has no impact on national total NH3 emissions.

3.3.2 Civil aviation (NFR 1A3a)

3.3.2.1 Overview

Civil aviation includes emissions both from national and international aviation LTO cycles. This

category does not include military aviation, and it is reported under 1A5b sector. In Latvia civil

aviation constitutes a small part of total emissions therefore it is not considered as a key

source. The aviation gasoline is mainly used by small-sized propeller planes but jet kerosene

is used by airplanes with turbo jets and turbo props engines.

Different trend tendencies during the time span 1990 - 2012 have to be noted for emissions

in civil aviation. Up to year 2005 mostly all emissions have declined due to decreasing of

activities in civil aviation (number of flights and fuel consumption). After year 2005 it is in

place a small increasing of emissions due to rather rapid development of international flights.

3.3.2.3 Methods

EMEP/CORINAIR 2009 Guidelines Tier 1 approaches have been applied. Tier 1 approach with

split in LTO and cruise cycles has been applied for jet kerosene emission calculation for time

period 2004-2012. Tier 1 approach has been applied for aviation gasoline emission

calculation.

3.3.2.4 Emission factors

Default emission factors for Civil aviation are taken from EMEP/CORINAIR methodology and

are presented in Table 3.14.

Using Tier 1 approach for jet kerosene, emissions for LTO (landing/take off) and cruise are

calculated individually. Prior to the emission calculation, representative aircraft type was

chosen, for which the fuel consumption and emission data exist in the EMEP/CORINAIR

Guidebook (2009).

3.3.2.5 Activity data

The data about fuel consumption in aviation is derived from the CSB. CSB has started to collect

data as of year 2006 (Figure 3.9). For the time period 1990 – 2005 and for aviation gasoline

consumption the data is used from the study (FEI, 200414). For 2004 onwards, the air flight

statistics is provided by the Riga International Airport.

3.3.3.1 Overview

Road transport is producing the greatest part of emissions in Transport sector (Figure 3.7). In

the source category there are passenger cars, light and heavy duty vehicles as well as mopeds

and motorcycles. In the source category emissions also from Gasoline evaporation,

Automobile road abrasion and Automobile tyre and brake wear are calculated.

In the road transport all main emissions have decreased in time period 1990 – 2012 with an

exception of NH3. NH3 emissions are likely to increase due to the increasing number of vehicles

equipped with catalytic systems for combustion gas treatment. The main reason for decrease

of emissions is steady improvement of cars‘technologies.

When analyzing the development of emissions in road transport in 2012 following trends could

be mentioned:

NOx and SOx emissions have decreased comparing with year 2011 by 2.3% and 6,4%

points corresponding. The main reason is decreasing of fuel consumption, however NOx

emission reduction is partly due to increasing share of EURO3 and EURO 4 and EURO 5

class cars;

If the main driving forces in decreasing of NOx emissions in road transport is penetration

of new technologies (EURO3, EURO4 and EURO5 classes) in total stock of cars, then

improvement of fuel quality is the main factor in decreasing SOx emissions in road

transport;

NMVOC emissions have decreased by 2.7 % points compare with year 2011 mainly due

to decrease of gasoline consumption;

The main sources of NOx emissions are heavy duty vehicles (HDV) 58.7 % followed by

passenger cars 32.0 %;

The main sources of NMVOC emissions are passenger cars 72 % and HDV 15 %.

The main sources of SOx emissions are passenger cars 57 % and HDV 23 %.

3.3.3.3 Methods

Emission calculation from Road transport is performed using the “Computer Programme to

calculate Emissions from Road Transportation” (COPERT IV), which is proposed to be used by

EEA member countries for the compilation of CORINAIR emission inventories. COPERT IV

methodologies can be applied for the calculation of traffic emission estimates at a relatively

high aggregation level. Calculation of emissions is based on fuel consumption of road vehicles

and of average mileage of vehicles and the fixed emission factors. Road traffic vehicles use

five different fuels – gasoline, diesel oil, liquid petroleum gases (LPG), natural gas and biofuel.

Before emission calculation COPERT IV model was calibrated to be consistent with actual sold

fuel (energy statistics). Deviation between fuel consumption in COPERT model and statistics is

less than 0.11%. Thus we can say that all emission calculation is based on actual sold fuel.

Corresponding to the COPERT IV fleet classification, all vehicles in the Latvia fleet are grouped

into vehicle classes, subclasses and layers. The layer classification is a further division of

Page 58: Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report - Meteo.lv€¦ · Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report 1990 - 2012 Submitted under the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution

Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report | 2014

59

vehicle sub-classes into groups of vehicles with the same average fuel consumption and

emission factors, according to EU emission legislation levels.

In COPERT IV, fuel consumption and emission simulation can be made for operationally hot

engines, taking into account gradually tighten emission standards and emission degradation

due to catalyst wear. Furthermore, the emission effects of cold-start and evaporation are

simulated. Estimation of evaporative emissions of hydrocarbons and the inclusion of cold start

emission effects are dealt with in the Latvian inventory by using LEGMC meteorological input

data for ambient temperature variations during months; the distribution of evaporate

emissions in the driving modes are used default by COPERT IV model. Trip-speed dependent

basis factors for fuel consumption and emissions are implemented. The fuel consumption and

emission factors used in the Latvia inventory come from the COPERT IV model.

3.3.3.4 Activity data

As a basis for model input information, CSB data have been used considering the actual fuel

consumption calibration with statistical fuel consumption, Road Traffic Safety Directorate

(RTSD) collected and published data have been used considering stock of road transport in

Latvia. Total mileage data for passenger cars, light duty trucks, heavy duty trucks and buses

produced by the RTSD is used for the years 1996-2012 and can be seen on Annex 2.

Figure 3.10 Development of fuel consumption in Road transport (TJ)

As seen in Figure 3.10, the fuel consumption has essentially changed in the time period 1990

– 2012. The gasoline consumption from the highest consumption in 1990 has decreased till

1999, reaching the lowest consumption and after six year stabilisation the increase was seen

in 2006 and 2007. Consumption of gasoline had decreased in 2012 by 15 % compare with

year 2011. Whereas the diesel fuel consumption starting from 1997 has increased all the time

till 2007. While it decreased in 2008 and 2009. Diesel fuel consumption has decreased in 2012

Figure 3.16 Distribution of heavy duty vehicles fleet by sub-classes

Figure 3.17 Distribution of heavy duty vehicles fleet by layers

Starting from the year 2011 emission for gasoline evaporation has been calculated according

to the COPERT IV model method. Calculation of PM emissions has been performed taking into

account emissions from road abrasion, tyres and brakes.

3.3.3.5 Uncertainties

Taking into account that CSB gives approximately 2% statistical sample error for statistical

data, uncertainty in activity data of fuel consumption is ±2%.To ensure time series consistency

any recalculation related with model version updating is realized for all time period. Linear

interpolation has been implemented only for cases when activity data fluctuation does not take

place.

When analysing the development of emissions trends in railway, following features could be

noted:

Due to the decreasing of diesel oil consumption by approximately 53 % points in railway

in time period 1990 – 2012 all emissions have been decreased by 53 – 76 % points;

Page 64: Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report - Meteo.lv€¦ · Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report 1990 - 2012 Submitted under the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution

Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report | 2014

65

In time span 2000 – 2012 it is in place diesel fuel consumption increasing in railway by

21.5 % points. It is a reason for PM and TSP emission increasing by 21.55 % points;

Due to the increase of fuel consumption in railway all emissions have been increased by

approximately 1-3 % points in year 2012 comparing with year 2011.

3.3.4.3 Methods

When calculating emissions from railway, Tier 1 method has been applied.

3.3.4.4 Emission factors

Default emission factors for Railway (Table 3.19) are taken from EMEP/CORINAIR methodology.

The emission factors for Particulate Matters are taken from CEPMEIP/TNO database (Table

3.10). The SO2 emissions factors are used consistent with sulphur content in diesel oil by years

(Table 3.21).

3.3.5 Navigation (NFR 1A3d)

3.3.5.1 Overview

Although Latvia has several ports, domestic navigation that providing transport of freight or

passengers among local ports is not developed. Major activities in ports deal with international

freight transport. In domestic navigation, the emissions are calculated for miscellaneous

vessels (tugs, barges, towboats, icebreakers), recreational crafts and personal boats

In 2012, the diesel oil consumption decreased by approximately 23.6 % points compared to

2011 level. Number of services for international freight in harbours mostly affects the changes

in the fuel consumption.

impossible to acquire precise data on fuel storage technologies (vapour filters, vapour storage,

etc.), therefore experts’ opinion was taken into consideration. Experts concluded that most of

the fuel was stored incorrectly until 2000, when most fuel storage facilities had fuel vapour

storage, but not vapour filters and pumps. For 2002–2012 fugitive NMVOC emission from oil

products storage and distribution in oil terminals and pump stations was taken from statistical

database “2-AIR” where operators have to report fugitive NMVOC emissions from activities

with oil products.

Fugitive particulate matters emissions in 2000-2012 from the operations of solid fuels – coal

and coke, transportation via railways and storage and handling, are estimated (Table 3.25).

NMVOC emissions are constantly decreasing due to improvements in natural gas transporting

system, as well as in gas stations. However, particulate matter emissions have increased if

compared to 2000 due to increase of imported amounts of coal and coke.

3.4.3 Methods

LEGMC receives data about emissions from the natural gas holding company “Latvijas Gāze”,

which calculates emissions by itself. Methodological material will be available on the next

submission.

Emissions were calculated from:

End user internal gas provision systems;

Distribution systems;

Gas transport pipeline systems;

Underground gas storage facility (in Inčukalns);

EMEP/CORINAIR methodology is used to estimate fugitive NMVOC emissions from operations

with gasoline in 1990–2001. For time period 2002–2012 NMVOC emission data are taken from

operator’s reported in database “2-AIR” so this is bottom-up reporting.

Particulate matters emissions are estimated by using the simple methodology multiplying

activity data with emission factor.

3.4.4 Emission factors

NMVOC emission factor for emission from gasoline transportation and storage estimation in

1990–2000 were taken from the local expert research and is based on the expert’s judgment.

Emission factor for 2000-2001 is taken from EMEP/CORINAIR as default emission factor for

gasoline distribution.

for 2002–2011 isn’t obtained because final emission data was taken from operator’s reports

to database “2-AIR”. This emission data is reported by the petrol stations and oil terminals

and verified by Regional Environment State Bureau. Mostly these emissions are obtained by

using measurement or estimated using mass balance method.

3.4.6 Uncertainties

Activity data for fugitive emissions for 1990–2001 from operations with gasoline were taken

from CSB and uncertainty was assumed as very low for about 2% as statistical frame mistake.

Reported NMVOC emissions for 2002-2012 from operations with oil products are assumed as

50% because emission data are taken from database “2-AIR” where enterprises report their

emission data. Operators mostly estimate NMVOC emissions by using mass balance method

or emissions are measured. Environment State Bureau checks and verifies all reports.

Uncertainty for particulate matter from coal handling is assumed as 50% for activity data and

100% for emission factor.

The level of uncertainty was determined by the representative of only natural gas distributig

company „Latvijas Gāze”. The uncertainty of CH4, CO2 and NMVOC emissions from natural gas

leakages in gas distribution and transmission systems, as well as in gas storage facility is

assigned as quite low – 10%, as emissions were measured and estimated by only enterprise

operated with natural gas in Latvia – “Latvijas Gāze” by methodology developed for enterprise.

3.4.7 QA/QC and verification

NMVOC emissions reported for 2002-2012 are taken from national database “2-Air”. The data

input by companies’ is verified and approved by Regional Environmental Boards.

3.4.8 Recalculations

There have been recalculated NMVOC emissions from operations with gasoline in 2007-2012

due to updates in data base. For the first time NMVOC emissions from gas leakage were

calculated.

3.4.9 Planned improvements

It is planned to investigate the oil flow in the country to ascertain if there are additional NMVOC

sources.

Fuel consumption for emission calculation is obtained from CSB (Table 3.37). To provide the

consistent allocation of fuel consumption between domestic and international mode in the

navigation and aviation, CSB each month collects and summarises the information which is

submitted by enterprises which perform fuel bunkering. For this purpose the particular

statistical report format is elaborated in which the enterprises have to fill in the data regarding

amount of fuel sold respectively in domestic and international navigation and aviation

4.1.2 Key sources

Figure 4.1 Emissions from Industrial Processes sector by subsectors in 2012

There are two main categories in Industrial Processes sector – mineral production dominates

in NMVOC, PM2.5, PM10, TSP, CO, Hg and Se emissions, but metal production dominates in NOx,

SO2, Pb, Cd, As, Cr, Cu, Ni and Zn emissions (Figure 4.1). Division of emission most likely

could be different because several emissions are not estimated due to lack of official

methodology and default or country specific emission factors.

Cement production sector is a key source category for NOx and SOx and emissions with 4.75%

and 10.84% respectively from total emissions in 2012.

Road Paving with Asphalt is a key source category for NMVOC emission with 31.65%, from

total NMVOC emissions. Road paving with asphalt is a key source category for TSP emissions

with 40.37% from total TSP emissions and 12.14% from total PM10 emissions and 2.05 % from

PM2.5 emissions in 2012.

Cement production is also a key source for PM10 emissions with 4.16% from total PM10

emissions.

Data on emissions in the Industrial Processes sector are linked with the economic situation of

the country as well as availability of statistical data. The largest decrease in emissions occurred

between 1990 and 1993, when industry was going through a crisis.

It has to be noted that in the beginning of 90ties during the countrywide change in government

system and national economy statistics was not well kept. Therefore there is lack of statistical

data regarding industry during this time period or they are vague. The data extrapolation was

carried out for the sectors where possible although the extrapolation is almost impossible to

do due to different circumstances – changes and total restructuring of national economy when

industrial development wasn’t predictable and explainable.

Since year 2000 and after the crisis in national economy of Russian Federation in 1999-2000

with whom Latvia has strength economic relations, all emissions from Industrial Processes

sector have increased in 2000-2008. It is explained with sharp development of Latvian

industry when construction activities increased and industrial production of building materials

also increased.

Still at the end of 2008 and in 2009 the global financial crisis caused a crisis in Latvia’s national

economy when the industrial production has decreased quite significantly. The decrease

mainly is explained with the decrease of population welfare when lots of people lost their jobs,

benefits and pensions were decreased and taxes were increased therefore the purchase

capacity of population decreased remarkably. Due to that the building and construction sector

development decreased as well as companies also were charged with higher taxes. In 2010 all

emissions have increased with exception of SOx emissions that decreased by 95.95% and NOx

by 31.33 %. It is explained with changes from wet to dry technology of cement production in

the first half of 2010. The data of SOx and NOx are not representative because the new dry

process cement production technology began to work with full capacity only in July of 2010.

To reduce NOx emissions from cement production there is used SNCR (Selective Non-Catalytic

Reduction System) method. With the help of the system the flue gas NOx emissions reduction

percentage of 40...60 % is achievable, depending on the cement kiln type, fuel and NOx

content. Reducing agents such as urea and ammonia are injected to the hot flue gases. They

react with nitrogen monoxide and form nitrogen and water. In addition SNCR there are used

more than 50% of ecofuel which functions as blaze extinguisher in that way to reduce NOx

emission. Switched from wet to dry process cement production SO2 and NOx are measured

automatically in new technological plant and are considered as plant-specific data that are

available and are taken from national statistical database “2-AIR”.

Most emissions have increased in 1990-2012 mainly due to increase of industrial production

in Cement production and Road construction sectors with NMVOC and CO emissions that have

increased by 14488.5% and 2041.86% respectively that could be explained with development

of road construction sector and updated emission factors taken from EMEP/EEA 2013 (Table

4.4) Exeption is emissions from heavy metals that are decreased about 63.05% due to updated

emission factors taken from EMEP/EEA 2013. Due to increase of total amounts of cars and

development of transit transportation in country the necessity to improve road pavement

arose. Also the possibility to obtain financing from European Union funds increased the

possibility to improve the transport infrastructure. Also updated statistical data is used for

emission calculation when in previous submissions only amount of bitumen was used as

activity data but starting from year 2000 the amount of bitumen mixtures (asphalt, emulsions,

asphalt mastic etc) was used.

The emissions from Asphalt roofing and Road paving with asphalt sectors are constantly

increasing since the beginning of 90ties. Slight emission decrease in 1999-2000 is explained

with the change of percentage that is used to divide activity data used in roofing and road

paving. The sharp emission increase in 2003-2004 is explained with Latvia’s accession to EU

in the May of 2004 before and after what the road paving works were very active. In that

particular year VIA Baltica that connects the capitals of all Baltic States was built. According to

CSB one particular road contractor has quite large amount of bitumen mixtures imported and

used. That particular contractor was working on the VIA Baltica highway. In next years the road

paving activities decreased but not to the level of the years before 2004. Due to Latvia is

participant in EU since 2004 financial resources from EU projects are available for national

infrastructure projects.

Particulate matter emissions have increased in 2000-2012 by 260.25% for TSP to 752.20% for

PM2.5. Still the particulates have decreased by 13% to 45.59% in 2008-2009 due to decrease

of road construction activities. Decrease was caused by the crisis in national economy when

financial resources were transferred to and used in other sectors.

All heavy metals emissions have decreased by 63.1% as heavy metals are estimated only from

glass production processes so these emissions represent total decrease of glass production

sector. The emission levels haven’t changed in 2008-2012.

4.2.2 Cement clinker production (NFR 2 A 1)

4.2.2.1 Overview

Under this sector there are reported NOX, NMVOC, SOx, PM2.5, PM10 and TSP emissions from

Cement production sector including emissions from cement and clinker production processes.

All emissions except NMVOC increased in 2008-2009 when SO2 – by 1.95%. NOx emissions

increased quite sharp by 55.76% that is explained with the emission factor of NOx for new

production plant using dry process kiln that is 181.48% higher than in old production plant.

NMVOC emissions decreased by 61.22% that is also explained with the emission factor for new

production plant that is 95.65% lower than for the old production plant’s wet kiln process

technology.

Starting from 2010 fully dry process kiln is used in cement production. For 2009 both kiln

processes- dry and wet was used in cement production. Previously (1990 – 2009 partly) only

wet process kiln was used in cement production. Due to an increasing activity for cement

clinker production in 2010the amount of SOx emissions have remarkably decreased. From

year 2009 to 2010 SOx emissions are decreased about 95.95% due to changing technology of

cement clinker production from wet to dry process kiln. As resources there are used tyres and

lube oil which contains sulphur compounds, all necessary for producing clinker. NOx are

decreased about 31.34% but these data are not representative due to new technology started

to work with full capacity only in July on 2nd half of year 2010 and fully in 2011. In 2011 and

2012 there are increased emissions from 2.A.1 sector due to increasing of used activity data

in cement production comparing with previous years accordingly about 31.17% and 3.09%

respectively.

4.2.2.3 Methods

Tier2 approach was used to calculate NOx, NMVOC, SOx (from EMEP/CORINAIR 2007) and

particulate matters emissions (from EMEP/EEA 2013) from cement production taking into

account produced amount of clinker in wet and dry process kilns and technology based EFs.

In the middle of 2009 previously operating cement production plant was closed and the new

one was opened in different area. In the new facility dry process kiln is used instead of wet

process kiln used previously in the old production plant. Therefore particulate matter EFs was

updated and the corresponding EFs from EMEP/EEA 2013 for dry process kiln were used for

clinker produced in the new facility.

According to A category pollution permit there are total 36 dedusting equipments (filters)

installed in the cement production plant with total efficiency approximately 99%.18 These filters

mainly are designed to collect large coarse particles. Therefore total estimated TSP emissions

are decreased by 99% after the emission estimation using Tier2 EFs from EMEP/EEA 2013. The

BAT use is taken into account only starting 2009 for new facility where dry process kiln is used

because it is a newly established facility with recently installed BAT with strict control

technologies. Therefore TSP EF is estimated using following equation from EMEP/EEA 201319:

21 TierfiltersPM EFEF

where:

EFPM – TSP emission factor including BAT use (Gg/Gg)

ηfilters – abatement technologies efficiency – 99%

EFTier2 – Tier2 EMEP / EEA 2009 emission factor for TSP dry process kiln (Gg/Gg)

4.2.2.4 Emission factors

PM2.5 and PM10 EFs were used without abatement technologies reduction as there is no

information if BAT is used also for smaller particulates.

As the EFs for NOx, NMVOC and SOx are not available in EMEP/EEA 201320 (marked as “Not

Estimated”) the EFs from EMEP/CORINAIR 200721 were used as these emissions are emitted in

the production according to cement production plant. For Submission 2012 the EFs were

divided for wet process kiln used in the first half of 2009 and for dry process kiln used starting

with second half of 2009 and after .

4.2.2.5 Activity data

The produced clinker is not weighed in cement production plant but clinker production is

estimated from final cement type by multiplying it with cement/clinker ration according to

data taken from cement producer GHG report (Table 4.7).

4.2.2.6 Uncertainties

Uncertainty of cement production data is assumed as 10% as clinker production data is

estimated from final cement production data because produced clinker is not weighted

separately before the final cement mixture is produced.

Emission factor for 2.A.1 sector is estimated based on plant specific data of used limestone

characterizations so average uncertainty of 5% is assumed.

It has been concluded that up to 50 % of uncertainties may be assigned to the emission

estimates of most of the trace elements emitted from major point sources in Europe (Pacyna,

1994). Similar uncertainty can be assigned for emission estimates of these compounds from

cement production.

4.2.2.7 QA/QC and verification

Assessment of trends have been performed.

4.2.2.8 Recalculations

No recalculations have been carried out.

4.2.2.9 Planned improvements

No improvements are planned for the next Submission.

4.2.3 Lime production (NFR 2 A 2)

4.2.3.1 Overview

Under this sector PM2.5, PM10 and TSP emissions from lime production in Iron & Steel

production are reported as these emissions are estimated based on total produced quicklime

(CaO) data.

In iron & steel production facility lime necessary for steel smelting in open heart furnaces is

produced only from limestone in vertical shaft kiln.

As for most of Latvia’s economy sectors the emissions in 2008-2009 have decreased

significantly due to the economical crisis. In 2010, emissions have increased due to increasing

activity data of produced lime that are used for glass and metal production. There are

increased emissions from lime production due to overall increasing of activity in Industrial

Page 84: Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report - Meteo.lv€¦ · Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report 1990 - 2012 Submitted under the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution

85

processes. In 2011, emissions of produced lime that are used for metal production are

decreased due to changing technology of metal production as plant switched on steel

production in EAF (Electric arc furnace) only and operation of this plant was partially suspended

due to reconstruction in this year. In 2012 there are increased emissions of particulate matters

about 21.81% comparing with 2011 that is explained with overall increasing activity in this

sector and fact that Metal production plant works again with full capacity.

4.2.3.3 Methods

Tier2 approach was used also to estimate particular matters emissions from lime production

processes. Only particulate matter emissions were estimated from lime production. There are

three lime production plants where two of them are direct lime production plant where in one

lime is produced from dolomite and from other the lime is produced from limestone. Lime is

also produced in iron and steel plant where the lime is then directly used in steel production

process.

4.2.3.4 Emission factors

As all 3 lime production plants have A category pollution permits since 2005 the facilities must

have BAT installed and the emissions from the production processes have to be controlled.

Therefore controlled EFs from EMEP/EEA 2013 for particulate matters are used for time period

2005-2009. For time period 1990-2004 the uncontrolled EFs from EMEP/EEA 2013 are used

to estimate particulate matters emissions.

Following emission factors from EMEP/EEA 2013 to estimate particulate matters emissions are

used (Table 4.9).

4.2.3.5 Activity data

Activity data of produced lime in steel production company is taken from plant’s GHG reports

within ETS (Figure 4.2).

Unfortunately the data of produced lime in direct lime production plants is not available due

to confidentiality issue. These data are re-estimated backwards taking into account the

approximate percentage of the lime that is produced by using stated amount of raw materials.

The information of technology used in lime production is available:

in first facility lime is produced only from limestone and there are 3 shaft-type kilns

installed in facility;

in second facility lime is produced only from dolomite using shaft-type kilns;

in iron and steel production facility lime necessary for steel smelting in open heart

furnaces is produced only from limestone in vertical shaft kiln.

Figure 4.2 Lime production activity data in 1990–2012 (Gg)

4.2.3.6 Uncertainties

Although according to IPCC GPG the uncertainty of non-marketed lime production data could

reach 100% and more it is assumed that the uncertainty of activity data for non-marketed

lime production data is 2.A.2 sector is assumed as 2% as only one plant specific data verified

by accredited verifier and approved by Regional Environmental Board is used.

As default emission factors for lime production from IPCC GPG 2000 as well as MRG are used

the uncertainty is assumed 50% due to unavailability of the plant specific data of produced

lime and due to the fact that this is default emission factor for quicklime production.

4.2.3.7 QA/QC and verification

Assessment of trends have been performed.

4.2.3.8 Recalculations

No recalculations have been carried out.

No improvements are planned for the next Submission.

4.2.4 Asphalt roofing and Road paving with asphalt (NFR 2 A 5, 2 A 6)

4.2.4.1 Overview

In this sector NMVOC, particular metter and CO emissions from construction materials

production as well as road paving activities are reported.

According to CSB information the biggest part of NMVOC and other emissions occurs during

road paving with asphalt. Just small part of all bitumen mixtures are used in asphalt roofing

sector.

The emissions from these two particular sectors are constantly increasing since the beginning

of 90ties. Slight emission decrease in 1999-2000 is explained with the change of percentage

that is used to divide activity data used in roofing and road paving. The sharp emission

increase in 2003-2004 is explained with Latvia’s accession to EU in the May of 2004 before

and after what the road paving works were very active. As it is explained previous there are

tend to increase emissions from road paving and asphalt roofing activity in 2010. In 2011 and

2012 there are increased amount of activity data used for road paving and asphalt roofing

about 58.08% and 6.99% respectively.

4.2.4.3 Methods

EMEP/EEA 2013 Tier1 was used to estimate NMVOC emissions from the 2A5. Asphalt roofing

and 2A6 Road Paving with Asphalt. According to CSB the biggest part of bitumen mixtures

amount is used for road paving. Only a small part is used for roofing activities.

NMVOC emissions are estimated using simpler default methodology:

NMVOCbitumenNMVOC EFADE

where:

ENMVOC – NMVOC emissions (Gg)

ADbitumen – bitumen and bitumen mixtures used in 2A5 and 2A6 activities (Gg)

EFNMVOC –NMVOC emission factor (Gg/Gg)

4.2.4.4 Emission factors

Default CO and NMVOC emission factors are taken from EMEP/EEA 201322,23. Due to lack of

the technology use information Tier1 EFs were used (Table 4.11).

4.2.4.5 Activity data

The activity data to calculate NMVOC emissions from road paving and asphalt roofing are

taken from the CSB (Table 4.12). For previous submissions the amount of bitumen was used

as activity data but starting with Submission 2012 the amount of bitumen mixtures was used

as activity data. According to CSB the bitumen mixtures includes:

Asphalt bitumen that usually consists of 60% or more of bitumen and solvent. Used for

highway paving;

Emulsion – or a solid asphalt, bitumen, pitch, tar suspensions in water that are used

especially in highway paving;

Asphalt mastic and other bitumen resins, and similar bituminous mixtures that include

minerals such as sand or asbestos;

Products that are sintered in blocks and that are repeatedly melted before use.

According to information from CSB the biggest part of bitumen mixtures is used for road

paving. According to IPCC 2006 typically 80-90% of bitumen is used for road paving

materials.24 Still as Latvia before the beginning of 90ties was part of former USSR and was

going through the economical transition phase, it was assumed that 80% is used for road

paving and remaining is used for asphalt roofing till 2000. After that the 90% amount was

used for road paving.

As mentioned before in 2004 the sharp increase of bitumen mixtures use was observed that

is explained with large amount of road paving works before Latvia’s accession to EU and after

that when EU financial instruments became available (Table 4.12).

4.2.4.6 Uncertainties

Uncertainty of activity data for estimations of emissions from 2.A.5 Asphalt roofing sector and

2.A.6 Road Paving with Asphalt sector is assumed rather low as CSB data of used bitumen

mixtures are used and the percentage of IPCC 2006 is used to divide bitumen use for roofing

and paving activities. Still as it is not clearly known how much of the total bitumen is used for

asphalt paving and for asphalt roofing (bitumen use in construction sector) the uncertainty is

assumed as at least 20%.

The emission factors for 2.A.5 and 2.A.6 sectors are assumed as high as 70% because default

emission factors are used. The uncertainty of indirect emission factors for these two sectors

are taken from EMEP/EEA 2009 as Tier1 EFs is assumed as high as 50% due to the default

emission factors are used.

4.2.4.7 QA/QC and verification

Assessment of trends have been performed.

4.2.4.8 Recalculations

For submission 2014 there are made recalculations for NMVOC, particular matter and CO

emissions in all time series from 2A5 Asphalt roofing and 2A6 Road paving with asphalt

sectors according to updated emission factors taken from EPEM/EEA 2013.

NMVOC emissions for time period 1997-2012 were taken from national database “2-AIR”

where glass fibre production plant reported its emissions divided by NMVOC sub-type (Table

4.14). For time period 1990-1996 only butylacetate data is available from glass fibre

production company’s application for GHG permit within EU ETS. For year 2005 also glass

production company had reported its NMVOC emissions but since then glass production is not

operating therefore NMVOC emissions from glass production are reported only for 2005.

Figure 4.3 NMVOC emissions from glass fibre production in 1990–2012 (Gg)

Use of potash as well as NMVOC emissions from glass production stopped in 2005 when the

glass production plant ended its activity although the use of raw materials in last years of this

glass production plant increased sharply. Use of whiterite is occurring only in 2005-2007 in

glass production manufacturing plant but in 2008 and 2009 the plant has suspended it

activity. Since 2005 NMVOC emissions are still emitted but in smaller amounts from glass fibre

production.

4.2.5.3 Methods

The particulate matters and heavy metals EFs were taken from EMEP/EEA 2013 for Tier1

approach.

NMVOC emissions were taken from national database “2-AIR” where glass fibre production

plant has reported its NMVOC emissions therefore no EF was used.

4.2.5.4 Emission factors

Following emission factors from EMEP/EEA 2013 to estimate particulate matters emissions are

used (Table 4.15).

Emissions from use of additional raw materials used in glass production plants – fluorspar,

potash and whiterite (barium carbonate) are used as activity data to estimate heavy metals and

particular matters from glass production plants (Table 4.16).

Emissions from Glass fibre production are estimated to taking into account NMVOC emissions

as activity data due to there is no data about used raw materials but plant report NMVOC

emissions.

4.2.5.6 Uncertainties

The uncertainty of activity data for this sector is assumed as 2% as plant specific reported data

is used. Accredited verifiers and Latvia’s Regional Environmental Boards verify the activity data

reported in production plant’s annual GHG reports within ETS so the activity data is adequately

verified.

Emission factors for this sector are taken from glass production plant so the uncertainty could

be assumed as quite low. Still the estimation of the emission factors can’t be adequately

verified so the uncertainty is assumed as quite high – 70%.

4.3 CHEMICAL INDUSTRY (NFR 2 B)

4.3.1 Overview

Although there are strong traditions of the chemical industry in Latvia there are nonchemical

industry production processes listed in IPCC GPG 2000 or EMEP/EEA 2013 that generate GHG

emissions.

The biggest part of chemical industry is medicine production and then small part of paints

and varnishes production.

Under this sector there are reported particular matter emissions from phosphate fertilizers.

All available data and emissions from chemical and pharmaceutical production are reported

and described under 3C Chemical products, manufacture and processing sector.

4.3.2 Trends in emissions

Particulate matters emissions from phosphate fertilizers were estimated and reported in 2B5

sector but only for year 2008-2012 as activity data for other years are not available (Table

4.17).

The biggest decrease occurred in time period 1990–1991 due to crisis in Latvia’s national

economy. Crisis in late 90-ties caused by crisis in Russia’s economy is reflected in decrease

of emissions from Metal Production sector. Also final amount of steel products produced in

only metal industry facility decreased in latest years.

Main decrease of emission trend occurred in early 90ties that is explained with economical

situation in industry for this period. Since 1995 emissions were increasing due to increase of

metal production. Emissions also slightly decreased by 0.5% from 2004 to 2005 that is

explained with decrease of output of steel production that is affected by economical situation

and demand of products in national and international markets.

In 1990-2007 emissions have increased by 1.5% in 1990-2007 and again have decreased by

5% in 2007-2008 that is explained with economical crisis that already begun in the second

part of 2008. The emissions continued to decrease in 2008-2009 – by 16.97%.

Emissions in 2010 have increased comparing to 2009 with about 21.55 %. In 2011 there are

markably decresed all emissions from Metal production sector averagely about 68.60% due

to technological changes in Metal production plant when steel production process was stoped

half a year. There are planed to switched on Electric arc furnace only (EAF) in the future. In

2011 Metal production plant were made reconstructions as a result all produced amount of

steel in EAF and Open heart furnace (OHF) decrease about 75.11% and 68.67%.

In 2012 all emissions in Metal production sector are increased after plant reconstruction.

Comparing with base year in 2012 there are increased particular matter emissions about

67.18% and NOx, NMVOC, SOx and heavy metals about 52.07 %.

4.4.3 Methods

Tier1 method from EMEP/EEA 2013 was used to calculate emissions from steel production.

Calculation of all emissions is done with Excel databases developed by experts from LEGMC.

4.4.4 Emission factors

Emission factors for NOx, NMVOC and SOx emissions are taken from EMEP/CORINAIR 2007.

Carbon dioxide, particulate matters and heavy metals emission factors are taken from

EMEP/EEA 2013 for the Submission 2014. According to methodology for estimations of

emissions from processes in open-heart furnaces, where 95% of total steel production is

produced.

4.4.5 Activity data

Activity data were taken from the CSB of Latvia and enterprises. Activity data on production

and output by manufacturing companies are freely available until 1999. CSB gives only

restricted information on production and output of goods since 1999, the information being

classified as confidential. LEGMC has signed an agreement with CSB to get data of total

production of products from sectors from what data are confidential. Still as industrial

producers are participants in the EU ETS the GHG reports of these enterprises have to be freely

available.

The GHG reports of EU ETS operators are published on LEGMC home page. The data source of

the activity data is industrial producers and the confidentiality rules are no longer in force.

Latvia has simpler situation in activity data of 2C1 Metal Production because there is only one

steel producer and it participates in EU ETS and in International ETS. It is possible to obtain

more accurate and complete activity data and emission factors from enterprise that are

involved in the emission trading system (Figure 4.4)

Figure 4.4 Steel production activity data in 1990–2012 (kt)

4.4.6 Uncertainties

Only one enterprise operates in iron and steel industry category in Latvia and this facility

reports data of production and raw materials used in production processes. Still used raw

materials data divided by technological processes aren’t available and are estimated by using

approximate percentage. So the uncertainty of activity data of iron and steel industry is

assumed 25%.

Uncertainty of emission factors taken from EMEP/EEA 2013 methodologies is assigned as 20

% so it is apposite for open-heart furnaces – technology mainly used in facility operated in

iron and steel industry in Latvia.

4.4.7 QA/QC and verification

Assessment of trends have been performed.

4.4.8 Recalculations

For submission 2014 there are made recalculations for all heavy metals in all time series from

2C1 Iron and steel production according to updated emission factors taken from EMEP/EEA

2013.

4.5 OTHER PRODUCTION (NFR 2 D)

4.5.1 Source category description

Other Production sub-sector includes indirect emissions from:

Pulp and Paper industry;

Food and drink industry.

Under this sector there was made research on pulp and paper sector as there are two producers

that are reporting activity data with the PRODCOM code 17.11.14.00.00- manufacture of pulp.

According to available information these two manufactures have changed their activity and

there are no information about raw materials that could be produced or imported.

The biggest fluctuations occurred in time period 1991–1993 due to changes in economical

situation in country (Table 4.22). Decrease of NMVOC emissions in time period 1999–2001 is

explained with economical crisis in neighbour country Russia with whom Latvia has stable

Page 97: Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report - Meteo.lv€¦ · Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report 1990 - 2012 Submitted under the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution

98

economical relations. For the years in time period 2002–2004 NMVOC emissions were stable.

NMVOC emissions have decreased by 29.3% in 2006-2007 that is explained with decrease of

produced spirits by 35.5%. The emissions in 2008-2009 have decreased by 5.99% that is

explained with the crisis in national economy that affected food and drink production industry

as purchasing capacity decreased due to decreased salaries, increased taxes etc. After going

through a crisis in 2009 emissions in 2010 are increased about 5.08%. In 2011 NMVOC

emissions are decreased about 4.06% comparing with 2010. In 2012 NMVOC emissions are

increased about 0.77% comparing 2011 that makes stable situation in this sector in last two

years.

SOx emissions are reported for time period 1990 – 1996 when pulp and paper industry were

closed due to facility closes. In latest years wood pulp and paper industry is developing again

still wood pulp is imported and not produced in country so SOx emissions that occurred in

pulp production processes are not emitted.

4.5.3 Methods

Tier 1 method from EMEP/CORINAIR was used to calculate emissions from Pulp and paper

production and Food and drink production sectors. NMVOC emissions from the food and drink

industry as well as SOx emissions from pulp and paper industry are calculated at the LEGMC.

4.5.4 Emission factors

The NMVOC emission factors (Table 4.23) are taken from the IPCC 1996 with exception of

NMVOC emission factor for spirits production. For Submission 2014, NMVOC emissions factor

from EMEP/CORINAIR that corresponds to other spirits was used. Central Statistical Bureau

provided aggregated statistical data where it can be seen that 95.5% of all spirits produced in

Latvia is produced from grains (sheer alcohol or spirits) and no brandy and whiskey is

produced in Latvia. That's why previously used emission factor as for Spirits (unspecified sort)

15 kg/hl (alcohol) was changed to emission factor as for Other Spirits 0.4 kg/hl (alcohol).

Table 4.23 NMVOC emission factors for food and drink industries

Production Emission factors

Wine 0.08 kg/hl

Beer 0.035 kg/hl

Spirits 0.4 kg/hl

Meet, fish, poultry 0.3 kg/t

Sugar 10 kg/t

Cakes, biscuits, breakfast cereals 1 kg/t

Bread 8 kg/t

Animal forage 1 kg/t

4.5.5 Activity data

Activity data for calculation of the NMVOC emissions from the food and drink industry is

obtained from the CSB. Activity data of pulp and paper sub-sector also were taken from CSB

(Table 4.24) LEGMC has signed an agreement with CSB to get data of total production of

products from sectors where data are confidential. Still for the 2007 data for the category –

wine production, was classified as confidential and not available for the LEGMC. That’s why

for this category 2006 year’s data was used also for years 2007-2012.

CSB were used. For 2007-2008 the uncertainty is assumed higher – 10%, as no precise

information is available for wine production. NMVOC emission factors were assigned as 50%

because default emission factors taken from the IPCC 1996 were used.

5. SOLVENT AND OTHER PRODUCT USE (NRF 3)

5.1 SECTOR OVERVIEW

5.1.1 Overview

This sector contains NMVOC emissions from subsectors:

Paint Application (NFR 3.A);

Degreasing and Dry Cleaning (NFR 3.B);

Chemical Products, Manufacture and Processing (NFR 3.C);

Other (NRF 3.D):

Printing (NFR 3.D.1);

Domestic Solvent Use (NFR 3.D.2);

Other Product Use (3.D.3).

Emissions in the Solvent and Other Product Use sector (Figure 5.1) are linked with the country-

wide changes in government system and national economy. From the 1990ties till 2004

statistics was not well kept therefore NMVOC emissions were calculated proportionately

assuming that base year for NMVOC emissions was year 200525 and taking into account the

number of inhabitants. For 2005-2012 the data from Chemical Register (CR) was used under

NRF 3.A, 3.B and 3.D for NMVOC emission calculation; NMVOC emission for NRF 3.C was

obtained from database “2-Air” for 2004-2012.

For years 2005-201226 country specific method was used to calculate NNMVOC emissions

under Solvent and Other Product Use subsectors. The average percentage content of NMVOC

in NMVOC containg product is used as NMVOC emission factor under Solvent and Other

Product Use subsectors except NRF 3.C where all NMVOC emissions data is obtained directly

from database “2-Air”.

5.1.2 Key sources

Solvent and Other Product Use sector covered over 40% from the total Latvia’s NMVOC

emissions in 2012. The largest share is for other product use – 52.9% (Figure 5.2). This

subsector includes emissions from application of underseal treatment and conservation of

vehicles, glues and adhesives, preservation of wood and other solvent use. Other are

respectively domestic solvent use 25.7%, decorative coating application and chemical products

8.3%, industrial coating application 2.7%, other coating application 2.1%, printing 0,1% and

degreasing 0,01%.

Figure 5.2 Distribution of NMVOC emissions in Solvent and Other Product Use Sector for

2012 (Gg)

5.1.3 Trends in emissions

Decrease in NMVOC emissions in the period 1990-2005 (Table 5.1) has occurred mostly due

to the industry going through a crisis. Between 2005 and 2008 the economic growth induced

the increasing usage of NMVOC containing products from application of underseal treatment

and conservation of vehicles, glues and adhesives, preservation of wood, domestic solvent use

and other.

At the end of 2008 the world was struck by the economic crisis which also affected the Solvent

and Other Product Use sector in Latvia. There is an increase in trends of NMVOC emissions

from Solvent and Other Product Use in later years. Since 2010 in CFR 3 sector NMVOC

emissions have increased by 14%.

5.2 PAINT APPLICATION (NFR 3 A), DEGREASING AND DRY CLEANING (NFR 3 B), OTHER – PRINTING,

DOMESTIC SOLVENTS USE AND OTHER PRODUCT USE (NFR 3 D 1, 3 D 2, 3 D 3)

5.2.1 Overview

Paint Application (NRF 3.A) includes paints and varnishes from NRF 3.A.1 Decorative coating

application (paints for architectural application by construction enterprises and proffesional

painters as well as by private consumers), NRF 3.A.2 Industrial coating application (paint

application for manufacture automobiles, car repairing, coil coating, boat building, wood as

well as other industrial paint applications) and NRF 3.A.3 Other coating applications as

described by EMEP/EEA air pollutant emission inventory guidebook – 2009. Paint Application

constituted 13.4% of the total NMVOC emissions under Solvent and Other p roduct Use sector

in 2012.

Degreasing and Dry Cleaning (NRF 3.B) consists of two subsectors. Degreasing (NRF 3.B.1)

includes cleaning products from water-insoluble substances such as grease, fats, oils waxes

and tars. In this subsector a wide range of activities were covered according to EMEP/EEA air

pollutant emission inventory guidebook – 2009. Dry Cleaning (NRF 3.B.2) constitutes a small

amount of whole NRF 3.B sector. NRF 3.B.2 is included in NRF 3.B.1due to the luck of statistics.

Other (NRF 3.D) was the biggest sub-category (78.8% or 17.4 Gg NMVOC) of total NMVOC

emissions in Solvent and Other Product Use in 2012. Other Product Use (NRF 3.D.3) produced

52.9% (11.7 Gg), Domestic Solvent Use (NRF 3.D.2) – 25.7% (5.7 Gg) and Printing (NRF 3.D.1)

– less than 1 % of these 17.4 Gg NMVOC.

To divide the NMVOC containing products by NRF 3.D subsectors EMEP/EEA air pollutant

emission inventory guidebook – 2009 was used. Printing (NRF 3.D.1) involved the use of inks,

cleaning solvents and organic dampeners. Domestic Solvent Use including fungicides (NRF

3.D.2) comprises NMVOC emissions from a number of product categories, for instance,

cosmetics & toiletries, household products, construction and car care products. Other Product

Use (NRF 3.D.3) includes emissions from application of underseal treatment and conservation

of vehicles, glues and adhesives, preservation of wood and other solvent use.

5.2.2 Trends in emissions

There is an increase in trends of NMVOC emissions under NRF 3.A, 3.B and 3.D in later years

mostly due to the economic welfare of the country (Table 5.2).

5.2.3 Methods

Country specific method was used to calculate NNMVOC emissions from NRF 3.A, 3.B and 3.D

subsectors. The average content of NMVOC in imported or produced chemical products

containing NMVOCs is calculated by arithmetic average and is presented in mass percentage.

NMVOC emissions (Gg) from Solvent and Other Product Use were calculated for the time series

1990-2012 using the equation below:

ENMVOC = EFNMVOC AD

where:

ENMVOC – non-methane volatile organic compounds emissions from solvents and other production use (Gg);

EFNMVOC – emission factor is assumed as the average percentage of a particular NMVOC in NMVOC containing product;

AD – activity data from Chemical Register, Gg.

To obtain a comparable data in time series for years 1990-2004 NMVOC emissions were

calculated using the same methodology as for years 2005-2012. Assuming that base year for

NMVOC emissions is year 2005, NMVOC emissions for years 1990-2004 were calculated

proportionally, taking into account the number of inhabitants.

5.2.4 Emission factors

The average percentage content of NMVOC in NMVOC containg product is used as NMVOC

emission factor.

5.2.5 Activity data

From the 1990ties till 2004 statistics for NRF 3.A, 3.B and 3.D was not well kept due to the

country-wide changes in governmental system and national economy. For 2005-2012 all

activity data was obtained from the Chemical Register (CR) at State Ltd "Latvian Environment,

Geology and Meteorology Centre" (Table 5.3). In CR data of imported and produced amount

of chemical products containing NMVOCs is collected together with the percentage of a

particular NMVOC in imported or produced products.

It is assumed that the NMVOC containing products imported in the country in a particular year

are utilized in the same year as the data of the actual use is not available or is confidential. In

CR information on a particular year, amount of produced and imported chemicals (ton), NACE

code, trade name, chemical name, CAS number and concentration (from … till %) is provided.

NMVOC emissions for years 1990-2004 were calculated proportionally, taking into account

the number of inhabitants provided by the Central Statistical Bureau (Table 5.4). Therefore

Implied emission factor (IEF) depends on the amount of NMVOC containing products in

particular year (activity data varies year to year).

Assessment of trends have been performed.

5.2.8 Recalculations

For period 1990-2012 recalculations have been carried out under NRF 3.A, 3.B and 3.D mainly

due to two reasons. The first one is that the list of NMVOCs substance is supplemented,

therefore recalculations are carried out for all time series. The second reason is that the time

series consistency is performed using one method for all time series.

5.2.9 Planned improvements

It is planned to obtain much more activity data from „Chemical Register” to ensure

completeness of the next submission. To achieve results it is necessary to supplement the list

of NMVOC substances.

5.4 CHEMICAL PRODUCTS, MANUFACTURE AND PROCESSING (NFR 3 C)

5.4.1 Overview

This sector covers NMVOC emissions from the use of chemical products taking into account

many activities such as polyurethane and polystyrene foam processing, speciality organic

chemical industry, manufacture of paints, inks and glues, fat edible and non-edible oil

extraction and industrial application of adhesives as described by EMEP/EEA air pollutant

emission inventory guidebook – 2009.

5.4.2 Trends in emissions

Clearly visible fluctuations of NMVOC emissions can be observed in the NRF 3.C sector (Table

5.5) moustly due to the national economy.

5.4.3 Methods

Country specific method was used to calculate NNMVOC emissions under NRF 3.C. For 2004-

2012 all NMVOC emissions data is obtained directly from database “2-Air”. The enterprises

have been reporting their produced NMVOC emissions dividing in a particular NMVOC.

To obtain a comparable data in time series for years 1990-2003 it was assumed that base

year for NMVOC emissions is year 2004, NMVOC emissions for years 1990-2003 were

calculated proportionally, taking into account the number of inhabitants.

5.4.4 Emission factors

All NMVOC emissions data is obtained directly from database “2-Air” at Ltd. Latvian

Environment, Geology and Meteorology Centre therefore emission factors are not available.

5.4.5 Activity data

From the 1990ties till 2003 statistics for NRF 3.C also was not well kept due to the country-

wide changes in governmental system and national economy. For 2004-2012 all NMVOC

emissions data is obtained directly from database “2-Air” at State Ltd "Latvian Environment,

Geology and Meteorology Centre". “2-AIR” is database where enterprises (that do any pollution

activity and have category A, B, or C polluting activity) report their emissions data; it is

approximately 3000 enterprises in total every year. From these approximately 3000

enterprises data is used only from the enterprises that produced NMVOC emissions according

to EMEP/EEA air pollutant emission inventory guidebook – 2009. Activity data for time period

2004-2012 reported by enterprises is not available as these data is not required to be reported

and could be assumed as confidential.

NMVOC emissions for years 1990-2003 were calculated proportionally, taking into account

the number of inhabitants provided by the Central Statistical Bureau (Table 5.4). Therefore

Implied emission factor (IEF) depends on the amount of NMVOC containing products in

particular year (activity data varies year to year).

Figure 6.1 Distribution of emissions in Agriculture sector by subsectors in 2012 (%)

In 2012, the main part of the ammonia emissions in Agriculture sector is related to Manure

Management –64.3% (9.88 Gg) and use of synthetic fertilizers - 35% (5.48 Gg). 75.3% (0.20

Gg) of PM2.5 originates from manure management, 69.9% (1.75 Gg) of PM10 originates from

crop production.

Trend of ammonia emissions from Agriculture is shown in the Table 6.3.

The ammonia emissions from Agriculture have decreased by 65.66% over the period of 1990

– 2012. The general reason for this is economical crisis during 1991-1995, when significantly

were decreased number of livestock in farms as well as use of nitrogen fertilisers. In the latest

years it ispossible to observe an increased use of fertilizers due to increase of agriculture land

use and expanding of crop production.

The emissions of Particulate Matters (PM) is compiled for 2000 to 2012. In 2012, emissions

decreased if compared with 2011. PM emission amount depends on the number of produced

animals. The particle emission includes primary particles in the form of dust from stables. The

main types of stables: cattle, swine, poultry and horse stable are included in the inventory. In

2000-2012 PM emissions from stables have increased by 11-26% which can be explained with

theincrease in livestock.

Emissions from grassland burning were determined according to IPCC GPG LULUCF 2003. Such

activities in Latvia appear seasonally and emission amount depends on the burned area. Area

of grassland burning was taken from State Fire and Rescue Service – SFRS. As it can be seen

from, the emissions from grassland burning (NOx, CO, PCDD, PCDF, PAHs) have an increasing

trend in 1990-2012 which is related with no adequate system of penalties for the violation of

burning prohibition

6.2 MANURE MANAGEMENT (NFR 4.B)

6.2.1 Overview

In the NFR category 4.B are included NH3 emissions from Manure Management.

In Figure 6.2, is shown emissions from Manure Management distributed on different livestock

categories in 2011. It is seen that the majority of the emission is related to the cattle (66%),

swine (18%) and poultry (13%) production.

As seen in Table 6.4, emissions from agriculture noticeably decreased since the beginning of

90`s after Soviet system and large state, or collective farms collapsis. However, in recent years

there is possible to observe a slight increase of sown area, consumption of synthetics N-

fertilizers and livestock numbers. Latvian livestock industry has been influenced by historical

events and the changing world economic situation. Particularly significant changes in the

livestock industry began in 1992 after the restoration of Latvian independence when most of

big farms went into liquidation.

6.2.3 Methods

Emission calculation is based on EMEP/CORINAIR Emission Inventory Guidebook.

The emission is calculated as the sum of activities (ai) multiplied by the emission factor (EF)

for each activity.

iitotal EF a E

The emission estimates are calculated in Excel sheets.

6.2.4 Emissions factors

Data about annual N excretion per animal until 2004 (Table 6.5) obtained from national

studies.28 National expert made an account, based on a research, in which livestock manure

amount and nitrogen amount was analyzed over a long time period as well as different

available information (Annex 4).

Since 2005, annual N excretion per animal for emission calculation is corrected according to

results of newest studies on development of manure normative and livestock units carried out

by the State Ltd." Agrochemical Research Centre”. The corrected livestock units are given in

national regulations No. 33 Regarding Protection of Water and Soil from Pollution with Nitrates

Caused by Agricultural Activity but manure normative in home page of Ministry of Agriculture

of Latvia (www.zm.gov.lv).

The mass balance approach was used for estimating N excretion by farm livestock. It requires

information on both input (N intake) and output (N products) factors. N intake was calculated as feed

intake (kg of dry matter) x N content of the feed while Nproducts includes the N in live weight

gain, milk, etc.

According to information from previous national studies regarding average Nex for sheep and

goats (Table 6.5) in Latvia there was very low level of produced nitrogen (6 kg/animal/yr) in

difference from IPCC default (16 kg/animal/yr)29 nitrogen amount because:

basis of sheep and goats nutrition was rather poor as sheep and goats usually were

not fed additionally;

mainly local breed was used which is not very productive;

in general sheep and goats farming as a branch in Latvia was relatively weakly

developed.

Since Latvia accession to European Union in 2004 the increase in the number of animals is

seen for sheep and goats. The reason is increase of funding formed by EU budget and state

subsidies. Wherewith the technologies and quality of production were improved and the

capacity of realization of products was increased. The nitrogen extraction from those

categories of livestock has increased.

N excretion by swine remains 10 kg nitrogen per animal in a year that is low value compared

with IPCC default (20 kg/animal/yr). The newest studies show a big difference in N excretion

(4.5-19.4 kg/animal/yr) by different sub-categories of swine, but in average N excretion is

about 10 kg/animal/yr.

There are some inconsistencies between statistical data and pig production practice in Latvia.

The Central Statistical Bureau of Latvia is collecting data on population of swine of such sub-

categories:

- piglets, live weight less than 20 kg (including sucking piglets);

- young pigs, live weight 20-50 kg;

- fattening pigs;

- young breeding sows;

- breeding sows.

Commercial pig production in Latvia mainly includes four or five phases, to take account of

changes in nutrient requirements with increasing age of the pig: piglets with live weight 7-30

kg, fattening pigs 30-100 kg or 7-100 kg, young breeding sows and breeding sows. Therefore

there are not researches data on N excretion by young pigs with live weight 20-50 kg. N

excretion for breeding sows is calculated taken into account N excretion by sucking piglets.

The average N excretion values for pigs in other European countries vary from 9.0 until 12.4

kg per animal per year (Witzke, H.P. & Oenema, O. Assessment of most promising measures.

Service contract „Integrated measures in agriculture to reduce ammonia emissions”. Alterra,

Wageningen, 31 May 2007).

The emission factor is based on Latvian conditions (Table 6.7). The NH3 emission is split up in

emission from stable, storage, application and grassing based on default values given in

EMEP/CORINAIR guidelines.

The livestock industry has been influenced by historical events and the changing world

economic situation. Particularly significant changes in the livestock industry began in 1992

after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the restoration of Latvian independence. Since the

Soviet Union had a planned economy, when Latvia was incorporated, most of the output of

livestock products was carried out in other Soviet republics. Most farms which were a big dairy

cows, fattening cattle, pig and poultry farms, went into liquidation. Many industrial companies

ceased to operate, fell in purchasing power and demand for dairy products and meat and meat

products, as well as their exports to Russia and CIS countries. Russian crisis almost stopped

the export of livestock products. Reorientation of livestock product export to Western markets

was more difficult in terms of market saturation and because the Latvian products are not

necessarily in their requirements.

All the above conditions affect the Latvian farmers and they were forced to reduce the milk,

meat and egg production levels, and reduce and eliminate the herds. Consequently, livestock

numbers declined most rapidly in 1990 - 1994 in all sectors, except for goat farming, goat

rearing, not particularly widespread in Latvia. Starting with 1995 dairy cattle numbers

continued to decline. Beef cattle numbers continue to decline until 2001, which is due to the

fact that the Latvian mostly subsistence farmers held from 1 to 2 dairy cows. At the process

of the Soviet system farm liquidation even the sheep as engaged at the level of subsistence

farms. Pig industry declined rapidly until 1996, but starting in 1997 the reduction is no longer

as sharp. In the case of stud-farms – after 1990 because of all the above-mentioned social

and economic changes stud-farms eliminating, the horses were sold, only the strongest stud-

farms continued to work. Poultry industry is related to the reduction of large poultry farms

dissolution in 1990 - 1993 years.

Starting with 2002 the number of animals has stabilized, but with 2004, according to Latvian

accession to the European Union, the increase in the number of animals is seen for beef cattle,

sheep and goat industries. The livestock sector has contributed to the development of

European Union agricultural subsidies and public sectors.

In 2008, there has been a reduction in dairy cows, compared with 2007, by 5.5%, which was

due to the low procurement prices of milk, and pig production has seen a reduction in the

number of animals compared to the year 2007 with the year 2008 by 7%, which is associated

with very high feed prices. In 2012, there have been quite small changes in animal numbers,

compared with 2011, however it is possible to observe the decrease of swine, horse and goats

numbers.

6.2.6 Uncertainties

Activity data uncertainty could be 2%. Emission factors may be uncertain to 50%.

6.2.7 QA/QC and verification

Assessment of trends have been performed.

6.2.8 Recalculations

Recalculations have been done due to use of methodology described in Emission Inventory

Guidebook 2013. Recalculations are done for NH3 emissions from synthetics N- fertilizers.

6.2.9 Planned improvements

No improvements have been planned for the next inventory.

Emissions noticeably decreased since the beginning of 90`s after Soviet system and large

state, or collective farms collapsis, when after the restoration of Latvian independence most

of big collective farms went into liquidation and agricultural production were reduced.

However, PM emissions from crop production and agricultural soils are increasing since 2000,

that is explained with an increase of areas of crop and agricultural soils. If to compare NH3

emissions in 2011 and 2012, there are most evident increase of emission from synthetic N-

fertilizers use according to statistical information that consumption of synthetics fertilizers

were arise by 9% in 2012 comparing to 2011.

6.3.3 Methods

For emission calculation the IPCC 1996 methodology was used. NH3 emissions from fertilizers

is depending on consumption and type of fertilizers, but such detailed information isn’t

available and it is decided to use IPCC default assumption that 10% of the mass of used

fertilizers are NH3 emissions. However, for time period 2008-2012 calculation of NH3

emissions is done based on fertilizer type data, according to data availability. Activity data is

used according to information provided by CSB (Figure 6.3).

Figure 6.3 Used nitrogen (kt)

The Tier 1 approach for PM and NMVOC emissions from crop production and agricultural soils

uses the general equation:

E pollutant = AR area * EF pollutant

where:

E pollutant = amount of pollutant emitted (kg a-1),

AR area = area covered by crop (ha),

EF pollutant = EF of pollutant (kg ha-1 a-1).

E pollutant = AR fertilizer applied * EF pollutant

where:

E pollutant = amount of pollutant emitted (kg a-1),

AR fertilizer applied = amount of N applied (kg a-1),

EF pollutant = EF of pollutant (kg kg-1).

6.3.4 Emission factors

The Tier 1 default NH3 EF 0.081 was used for NH3 calculations from inorganic N-fertilizers as

described in EMEP/EEA Air Pollutant Emission Inventory Guidebook 2013, Section 3.D Crop

production and agricultural soils, Table 3-1.

6.3.5 Activity data

Area covered by crops is taken from the CSB (Figure 6.4).

Figure 6.4 Area covered by crops, thsd.ha

The area of crops decreased by 31% from 1990-2012 therefore PM emissions decreased to by

the same % value.

6.3.6 Uncertainties

Activity data uncertainty could be 2%. Emission factors may be uncertain to 100%.

6.3.7 QA/QC and verification

Assessment of trends have been performed.

6.3.8 Recalculations

Recalculations have been done due to use of methodology described in Emission Inventory

Guidebook 2013. Recalculations are done for PM from manure management and crop

production.

Emission fluctuation is depending from volume of annual felling and the approach used to

utilize harvesting residues. Since 2005 it is becoming more and more common to use

harvesting residues from final felling in forest biofuel production; therefore, incineration and

other types of utilization of residues are not used widely anymore. The study on the actual

utilization practice was implemented by LSFRI Silava in 2012. The study results demonstrated

that no harvesting residues are incinerated in state forests and in 15 % of the clear-felling

sites (by area) harvesting residues are incinerated in private forests31. Due to lack of

information about transition between previous practice and correct figures of incineration of

harvesting residues, it is assumed that incineration of harvesting residues is reduced in 2011,

but earlier studies32 are used for previous years.

7.2 METHODOLOGICAL ISSUES

Methods

Generally was used IPCC GPG LULUCF 2003 and EMEP/CORINAIR simpler methodology.

Emissions are estimated - emission factor multiplied by activity data provided by National

forest inventory, State forest service and Fire and Rescue Service.

Emission factors and other parameters

For emission calculation from burning on - site in the forest were used default emission factors

according to IPCC GPG 2000 and EMEP/CORINAIR Guidebook (Table 7.2).

Emission factors for open burning of cleared forests

CO 0.06

NOx 0.121

Biomass Oxidised On Site 0.33

Nitrogen Carbon Ratio of Biomass burned 0.01

Emission factors for other PAHs were estimated by multiplying the Benz [a] pyrene emission

factor by the appropriate ratios (Table 7.3).

The following assumptions were used:

The following assumptions have been made for slash calculation, which was burned (Source:

State Forest Service):

1990-1999 – 50 % of residues are left for incineration and the remaining 50 % are left

to decay;

2000-2010 – slash on-site burning 30 % and 70 % left to decay;

2011 – 15 % of harvesting residues are left for incineration.

From the slash burned on-site, 2/3 is actually burned on-site, and 1/3 is gathered by

population and used as fuel wood or are left in the forest for decay. Since 2011 it is considered

that all biomass is burned on-site.

8. WASTE (NFR 6)

8.1 SECTOR OVERVIEW

8.1.1 Overview of sector

Waste management has acquired prior significance in the environmental protection policy as

one of the instruments for sustainable use of natural resources. The main directions in the

waste management are the development of the construction of polygons and collecting system

for non–hazardous municipal waste and the development of system for the collection and

treatment of hazardous waste. At the moment 11 non-hazardous waste polygons and one

polygon for hazardous waste got A category permit according to IPPC directive. Biogas

collection and use for energy production from biodegradable wastes and sludge is set as one

of priorities in Latvia.

Main activity data sources for emissions calculations in waste sector is waste data base, which

is developed by LEGMC. According to the information from LEGMC the total generated volume

of waste are shown in Table 8.1.

Emission estimates from the waste sector include:

NMVOC emissions from solid waste disposal;

NMVOC emissions from waste water handling;

Many pollutant emissions from incineration of hazardous and clinical wastes and

cremation Emissions from waste incineration with energy recovery are counted under

Energy sector.

Data on hazardous waste in Latvia have been collected and compiled by LEGMC since 1997

but data on municipal waste since 2001. Since year 2002 data bases about hazardous and

municipal wastes are combined in one data base “3-Wastes”. Data in this data base are taken

from State Statistical survey about wastes, which occurs every year. Statistical survey about

wastes must fill all enterprises, which have permits on pollutant activities (A and B category)

and all enterprises, which have permits on waste management operations.

Data of wastewater treatment and discharge have been collected since 1991 in the frame of

state statistical survey “2-Water”. State statistical survey “2-Water” must be filled by all

enterprises which have permits on water use, water resources use or mineral deposits quarry

use, or else A and B category polluting activity permit or C category acknowledgment. CSB

data also are used as activity data for emission calculation.

8.2 SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL

8.2.1 Source category description

Solid waste disposal is a main waste treatment operation in Latvia. Significant amount of

landfill gas is emitted annually from waste disposal sites. NMVOC are some part of landfill gas.

Figure 8.2 Disposed waste amounts in Latvia (Gg)

8.2.2 Trends in emissions

Figure 8.3 NMVOC emissions from Solid waste disposal (kt)

Emissions of NMVOC from solid waste disposal correlate with CH4 emissions, which are

calculated according to UNFCCC requirements. These emissions mostly relates to disposed

waste amounts in landfills.

8.2.3 Methods

NMVOC emissions from solid waste disposal are calculated. “EMEP/EEA inventory guidebook

2009” for emissions calculations is used. To estimate NMVOC emissions volume of landfill gas

must be calculated. Volume of landfill gas is calculated from methane aamounts, what is

estimated according to First Order decay method.

8.3 WASTE WATER HANDLING

8.3.1 Source category description

Data of LEGMC shows there were 529 millions m3 of waste water discharged in Latvia (2012).

Most of national population (76%, 2012) is served by urban waste water collecting and

treatment.

Emissions of NH3 from latrines and NMVOC from Waste Water Handling were calculated within

this report.

2012 0.0079 0.80

Change in 1990-2012, % -11.83 -39.16

Both NMVOC and NH3 emissions are decreasing over entire period due to such factors as slow

decrease of national population, increase of collection and treatment of waste water and

increase of industrial activity because of collapse of USSR.

8.3.2 Methods and emission factors

For emission calculation “EMEP EEA Emission Inventory Guidebook 2009” was used as

methodology source. According to methodology, activity data are multiplied by according

emission factors to calculate emissions, and for both substances emitted methodologies are

considered to be Tier 2 methods.

Statistical data on number of national population served or not served by waste water

collecting and treatment services is available from year 2000. Extrapolation was used to obtain

part of population not served for period 1990-1999. Extrapolation and change in reporting

procedure implemented in 2008 can lead to some inconsistency of statistical data results.

8.4 WASTE INCINERATION

8.4.1 Source category description

Currently there are no large amounts of waste being incinerated in Latvia. The biggest waste

amounts are incinerated with energy recovery and these emissions are counted in energy

sector. There are problems for waste classification, because many types of wastes could be

classified as fuel, for example chippings or used oils, then these amounts are not reported in

waste data base in waste incineration part. Data about waste incineration are only available

since year 1999. These wastes are classified as hazardous and clinical wastes. Under

hazardous wastes amount are counted many types of solvents and other industrial wastes that

could be hard to use as fuels. For clinical wastes all 18 EWC group codes are counted.

Emissions from various types of fires such as landfill fires and open burning of garden waste

are not estimated for Latvia.

9. RECALCULATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS

9.1 RECALCULATIONS

Energy

Energy Industries (NFR 1A1)

Activity data were updated by CSB for wood consumption. Energy consumption less than 1 kt

was taken from Energy balance available on CSB on-line database. Slight changes in natural

gas GCV that influenced the amounts of gas consumed. Landfill gas previously reported in

1.A.1.a was allocated to 1.A.4.a sector. Other liquid fuels were split into waste oils petroleum

coke and other liquid fuels therefore the consumption changed divided by fuel types.

Emissions were recalculated as well due to updates in emission factors in EMEP/EEA 2013

guidebook.

Manufacturing industries and Construction (NFR 1A2)

Other liquid fuels were split into waste oils, petroleum coke and other liquid fuels, therefore

changed their NCVs in the whole time series that influenced the consumption of fuels when

calculating consumption in kt to TJ. Natural gas - slight changes in GCV from 37.359 to 37.358

which slightly influenced the consumption of gas used in all subsectors. Slight changes in

1.A.2.a-1.A.2.e sectors generally due to addition of Energy balance data (less than 1 kt) for

several fuels, such as diesel oil and coal (mainly in 2010, 2011). In 1.A.2.f sector activity data

changes for LPG, coal, peat, diesel oil due to addition of Energy balance data. Corrections of

activity data for industrial wastes, where information was precised by the company which

consumes the specific fuel type. Consumed amounts of oil shale in 1990 were added.

Emissions from were recalculated as well due to updates in emission factors in EMEP/EEA 2013

guidebook.

Other sectors (NFR 1A4)

Other liquid fuels were split into waste oils, petroleum coke and other liquid fuels, therefore

changed their NCVs in the whole time series that influenced the consumption of fuels when

calculating consumption in kt to TJ. Natural gas - slight changes in GCV from 37.359 to 37.358

which slightly influenced the consumption of gas used in all subsectors. Input mistake in coal

consumption (1.A.4.a; 2001), straw consumption and CO2 emissions (1.A.4.a; 2006-2010),

wood consumption (2008). Corrected activity data provided by CSB for coal (2011). Data from

Energy balance (less than 1 kt) added for LPG, RFO (2010, 2011). The consumption of jet fuel

was allocated from 1.A.5.b sector (1.A.4.c) for years 1995-2000. Diesel used for fishing was

changed from stationary to mobile offroad (boats) after experts assumption that all diesel

used could be considered as used for offroads.

Emissions from were recalculated as well due to updates in emission factors in EMEP/EEA 2013

guidebook.

Transport

Road transport (NFR 1A3b)

Recalculations have been done due to corrected fuel consumption data (year 2011) by CSB.

Recalculations have been done due to improvement of activity data. Improvements comprise

Page 134: Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report - Meteo.lv€¦ · Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report 1990 - 2012 Submitted under the Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution

Latvia’s Informative Inventory Report | 2014

135

more precise split of passenger cars, LDV and HDV by subgroups (depending on engine

volume) and layers (EURO classes) and mileage. It is recalculated emissions of road transport

for year 2010 and 2011. Recalculation affected all emissions.

Off-roads

Recalculations have been done for all subsectors due to change of emission factors.

Fugitive emissions (NFR 1B)

There have been recalculated NMVOC emissions from operations with gasoline in 2007-2012

due to updates in data base. For the first time NMVOC emissions from gas leakage were

calculated.

Industrial Processes

Asphalt Roofing and Road paving (NFR 2A5, 2A6)

For submission 2014 there are made recalculations for NMVOC, particular matter and CO

emissions in all time series from 2A5 Asphalt roofing and 2A6 Road paving with asphalt

sectors according to updated emission factors taken from EPEM/EEA 2013.

Metal production (NFR 2C)

For submission 2014 there are made recalculations for all heavy metals in all time series from

2C1 Iron and steel production according to updated emission factors taken from EMEP/EEA

2013.

Solvent and other product use

Paint application (NFR 3A)

For period 1990-2012 recalculations have been carried out under NRF 3.A, 3.B and 3.D mainly

due to two reasons. The first one is that the list of NMVOCs substance is supplemented,

therefore recalculations are carried out for all time series. The second reason is that the time

series consistency is performed using one method for all time series.

Chemical products, manufacture and processing (NFR 3C)

For period 1990-2012 recalculations have been carried out under NRF 3.C mainly for two

reasons. The first one is that the list of NACE code is supplemented therefore recalculations

are carried out for all time series. The second reason is that the time series consistency is

performed using one method for all time series.

Agriculture

Manure management (NFR 4B)

Recalculations have been done due to use of methodology described in Emission Inventory

Guidebook 2013. Recalculations are done for NH3 emissions from synthetics N- fertilizers.

Agricultural Soils (NFR 4D)

Recalculations have been done due to use of methodology described in Emission Inventory

Guidebook 2013. Recalculations are done for PM from manure management and crop

production.

136

Waste

Waste water handling (NFR 6B)

NH3 emissions were recalculated for entire period due to update of nation population data.

Waste incineration (NFR 6C)

Recalculated emissions for 2011 due to slight changes in activity data.

9.2 PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS

Energy

It is planned to use EU ETS data of consumed fuel.

It is planned to investigate amounts of fuel used for fishing (off-road purposes) with

collaboration with CSB.

More detailed activity data by technology types for Residential sector is planned to be obtained

as Residential sector is a key source. In 2014 a research on obtaining detailed data on

households has been started.

It is planned to investigate the oil flow in the country to ascertain if there are additional NMVOC

sources.

Solvent and other product use

It is planned to obtain much more activity data for paint application from „Chemical Register”

to ensure completeness of the next submission. To achieve results it is necessary to

supplement the list of NMVOC substances.

It is planned to obtain much more activity data from „Air-2” for chemical products to ensure

completeness of the next submission. To achieve results it is necessary to supplement the list

of NACE code and particular NMVOC emitted substances.

Gridded emission results in Latvia (main pollutants)

Figure 1. Gridded NOx emissions in year 2010 (Gg)

As it can be seen in Figure 1, the main areas with the highest NOx emissions are the capital

city Riga (the central grid) as well as the other largest cities in Latvia. Mainly NOx emissions

are produced in Transport sector, and emissions from this sector have been divided by roads

and their intensity. Also a quite significant part of NOx emissions have been produced during

stationary combustion. The emissions in stationary combustion sectors are divided either

splitting employees in particular subsectors, divided by statistical regions of Latvia into grids,

or taking population in counties and dividing into households and then splitting by grid cells.

Figure 2. Gridded NMVOC emissions in 2010 (Gg)

The greatest part of NMVOC emissions comes from Solvents sector, where emissions were

divided by number of population in counties, and from Energy sector, where emissions are

divided either by employees in statistical regions, or by households. As it can be seen in Figure

2, the largest NMVOC emissions are produced in the cells where the largest cities are located.

141

Figure 3. Gridded SO2 emissions in 2010 (Gg)

The largest SO2 emissions are in one of largest cities in Latvia – Ventspils – due to use of fossil

fuels in Energy sector where emissions are taken from the national database ‘2-AIR’ from the

point sources. Also quite significant amounts of SO2 are produced in the capital city Riga and

in places with intense industrial processes (Liepaja, Broceni).

Figure 4. Gridded NH3 emissions in 2010 (Gg)

The distribution of NH3 emissions have been calculated using the number of livestock in

counties and cropland areas and distributed by grid cells. The largest ammonia emissions are

in central part of Latvia as well as in southern part where the largest cropland areas and largest

numbers of livestock are located.

ANNEX 3

Detailed information about calculated average N excretion per head of livestock:

Average N excretion per head of livestock was reassessed in the Research [13] which was made by Latvian State Institute of Agrarian

Economics if compared previously submitted. For N excretion calculations was used newest published information of “Centre of

Agrochemical researches” on different produced manure amount of livestock type in year and N amount in the manure, which was justly

with results of manure analyses (Table 6.9).

For reassessing values of N excretion per head of livestock was used in the Table 6.5 shown information, information from Research [15]

previously submitted as well as IPCC Guidelines.
