Abstract
The Ministry of Transportation Republic of Indonesia adopted several co-benefits activities related to climate change mitigation action through 2010-2014. In order to claim these activities results as climate change mitigation action, Ministry of Environment and Forestry need to verify them. The verification covers data accuracy, consistency, transparency and completeness of data quality and information. The author also verify the other parameters such as the calculation method, managerial system, monitoring system and funding support. In this program, several mitigation actions were implemented such as Area Traffic Control System (ATCS), traffic impact control, parking management, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system, smart driving, non-motorized transport, shifting from private vehicles to rail transport, rejuvenating of navigation facilities, aircraft fleet rejuvenation, renewal of the operation and maintenance system of airplane and improvement of flight navigation system during take-off and landing. The absolute difference results between claim and verification for all climate change mitigation actions based on Government Regulation (PP) No. 61/2011 were 13.44% - 43.5%. While for mitigation action beyond PP 61/2011, the absolute difference were 0% - 67.31%. There are no mitigation action satisfying all verification criteria. Based on these verification activities, The Ministry of Transportation should refine the method of mitigation action.
Highlights
National mitigation action to abate GHGs emission facilitated through Presidential Act No 61/2011[1] will be revised shortly
Based on desk review and clarification the author list mitigation actions referred to PP 61/2011 and beyond PP 61/2011
The persons in charge (PIC) in DGRT had an effort to keep data consistency by using primary data measured at the branch office of state railway enterprise (PT.KAI) as well as secondary data collected by representative institution such as central statistical bureau (BPS)
Summary
National mitigation action to abate GHGs emission facilitated through Presidential Act No 61/2011[1] will be revised shortly. The scope and measurement-reporting-verification (MRV) supervision on mitigation action for GHGs reduction needs support and commitment. MRV system, which is developed domestically for each country before implementing future recognized global MRV, will raise transparency and build trust inter-countries, funders. This will ascertain international treaty performance [4]. This study will evaluate the achievement of national mitigation actions for reducing GHGs emission from Ministry of Transportation through verification process. Transport sector is the main contributors of anthropogenic GHGs emission in Indonesia Reducing this emission will have positive impact at national scale
