Linking MRV (Measurement, Reporting, and Verification) of Climate Change Mitigation with National M&E System: Learnt from Current Initiatives in Indonesia
Paper presentation for the 2nd Climate-Eval
International Conference
on Evaluating Climate Change and Development
“Tackling a Key 21st Century Evaluation
Challenge”
MRV is a concept to quantify mitigation actions, and the balance
between commitments and qualitative actions. It stands for Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) and is firstly
introduced in 2007 by the Bali Action Plan. The BAP foresees MRV of nationally appropriate
mitigation commitments or actions for developed countries. Thus, to gain
international recognition for mitigation actions, the country needs to
establish an MRV system that enable the measurement, reporting, and verification
of the reduced emissions. Nevertheless, the MRV system is not only applied to
emission reductions, but goes beyond it, as it will measure and monitor all
enabling condition components (technology, finance, and capacity building)
relevant to emission reduction measures.
According to the above, MRV
is a set of system to track national
GHG emission levels, tracking of climate finance flows received or the impact
of mitigation actions, sharing information, lessons learnt, and allow assessing
whether set of targets have been achieved or not. MRV will enable the capacity
to generate and compile the information needed to plan, implement and
coordinate individual mitigation activities. To this end, countries should
design the national MRV systems accordingly to the needs and interests. However transparent MRV approaches can
improve comparability at national and international level. Thus supporting
coherence between domestic and international MRV systems where detailed
reporting on MRV approaches is a necessary process.
For Indonesia, MRV is significant as in 2009 the President of the
Republic of Indonesia at G-20 meeting in Pittsburgh and at COP15 in Copenhagen
committed to achieve the target of 26% reduction in carbon emissions from
Business As Usual (BAU) by 2020. Further emissions reductions of 41% are
expected with international support. To assure that Indonesia achieve the
target and is succeeded in limiting the emissions growth, therefore Indonesia needs to have the platform to conduct the MRV.
MRV
System for the mitigation actions reflected in the RAN/RAD GRK (National/Local
Mitigation Actions Plan) is referring
to the National M&E System (PP 39/2009). The system enable us to use the
available resources to do the MRV start from emission calculation at activity-basis
and using simple and easy format in order to come up with national and periodic
monitoring report.
