Regular back-calculations are required annually for the previous year, since the waste statistics of the Federal Statistical Office are published with a one-year delay for the data on the quantities and compositions of waste deposited, so that the current reporting year must therefore be estimated. The estimate is replaced in the following year with the then current data.\\ | Regular back-calculations are required annually for the previous year, since the waste statistics of the Federal Statistical Office are published with a one-year delay for the data on the quantities and compositions of waste deposited, so that the current reporting year must therefore be estimated.

- | Recalculation: | + | Additionally, as already stated above, in this year’s reporting, some of the emission parameters for the estimation of methane emissions from solid waste disposal have been modified (see respective chapter of the NIR 2023), leading to a considerable change. Due to the fact that the method for the estimation of NMVOC emissions is directly linked to the CH4 amounts estimated by using the IPCCs FOD-Model, the NMVOC-emissions are also affected and recalculated as shown in the following table: |
