Case Study II: New Zealand

This case study will guide you through a practice review of the fuel combustion emissions portion of New Zealand’s 2006 national greenhouse gas emissions inventory.

Unlike the previous case study for Ukraine, you will be expected to independently prepare your portion of the review report (i.e., on emissions from fuel combustion). After you have drafted your own text, we will then step through our example report. You can then compare your findings to those given in the example report. Make sure that the overall content of your answers is consistent with the example report.

Before starting the case study, be sure you have completed the appropriate preparations described in the ”Getting Prepared” section. Click here to go back to that page.

You should progress through each of the following sections in the order they are presented. Attempt to answer each question before clicking for “Help.” Looking at the answers first will only cause you to be less prepared for your final exam on this training module.

You should not open the example review report for the New Zealand until you have prepared your own report. Remember the purpose of this case study is to allow you to practice preparing a review report before you are tasked with the “real thing!”
