Abstract

This technical report covers the technical analysis of the technical annex submitted on a voluntary basis, in the context of results-based payments, by Indonesia on 21 December 2018 through its second biennial update report, in accordance with decision 14/CP.19. The technical annex provides data and information on the activities reducing emissions from deforestation and reducing emissions from forest degradation, which are activities included in decision 1/CP.16, paragraph 70, and covers the same national territorial forest area as the assessed forest reference emission level proposed by Indonesia in its forest reference emission level submission of January 2016.
Indonesia reported the results of the implementation of these activities for 2013–2017, which amount to 244,892,137 t CO2 eq and were measured against the assessed forest reference emission level.
The data and information provided in the technical annex are in overall accordance with the guidelines contained in the annex to decision 14/CP.19. The technical analysis concluded that the data and information provided by Indonesia in the technical annex are transparent and consistent with the assessed forest reference emission level established in accordance with decision 1/CP.16, paragraph 71(b), and decision 12/CP.17, section II. This report contains the findings from the technical analysis and a few areas identified for capacity-building and future technical improvement in accordance with decision 14/CP.19, paragraph 14.
