Version 2.83 of the CRTs includes changes to the Energy, IPPU, Agriculture, LULUCF and Waste sectors. The workbook for each sector and the list of changes made can be accessed using the links below.

Following the mandate from decision 5/CMA.3, the secretariat is developing the ETF reporting tools for use by Parties for   reporting the information as required by the modalities, procedures and guidelines for the enhanced transparency framework (decision 18/CMA.1):
 
ETF | GHG INVENTORY Reporting Tool – Generates the common reporting tables (CRTs) for the electronic reporting of the information in the national inventory reports (NIRs) of anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of GHG as contained in annex I to decision 5/CMA.3; 
 
ETF | PROGRESS Reporting Tool - Generates the common tabular formats (CTFs) for the electronic reporting of the information necessary to track progress made in implementing and achieving nationally determined contributions (NDCs) under Article 4 of the Paris Agreement, as contained in Annex II to decision 5.CMA.3;
 
ETF | SUPPORT Reporting Tool - Generates the common tabular formats (CTFs) for the electronic reporting of the information on financial, technology development and transfer and capacity-building (FTC) support provided and mobilized, as well as support needed and received, under Articles 9–11 of the Paris Agreement, as contained in annex III to the decision 5/CMA.3.

The test versions of the tools were made available to Parties in August 2023, with a second version being made available in November 2023.

The Parties submitted their views and feedback on their experience with the test versions of the reporting tools, including their experience with integrating the tools into their national inventory arrangements, as well as inputs on improving the tools by December 2023 via the submission portal.

The final versions of the reporting tools should be made available to Parties by June 2024, subject to timely availability of sufficient financial resources.
