Level 1:
Sectoral Background Data Tables
The majority of the data
in the CRF is contained in the first level, which consists of the Sectoral
background data tables. These background data tables require detailed
information on emissions, activity data, and other relevant information at
a category and sub-category level. Many of the summary tables at higher
levels are filled in automatically by the CRF software based on the data in
these first level background data tables.
All of the information
in these tables (less two exceptions) must be entered by the Party, as they
serve as the foundation for data used by many other CRF tables. The
exception to the previous rule is the Sectoral Background Data Tables,
which also include cells in which emissions are summed and “implied
emission factors” or “implied carbon-stock-change
factors” are calculated.
