National Allocation
Plan 2008-2012
The National
Allocation Plan defines the basis on which allocations of free
greenhouse gas emission allowances to individual installations
covered by the Emissions Trading Scheme will be made. The draft
National Allocation Plan for 2008-2012 (NAP2) was prepared by the
Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of the
Environment, Heritage and Local Government. This is in
accordance with Articles 9 and 10 and Annex III of the EU Emissions
Trading Directive (as transposed into Irish law by the European
Communities (Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading) Regulations 2004 (S.
I. 437 of 2004) and amendments).
Public
consultation
From 12 May
to 12 June 2006 the draft National Allocation Plan was open to
public consultation. In all 32 submissions were received and these
were then considered with a view to improving and finalizing NAP2
before sending it to the Commission.
Article 9 of
the Directive required that the Plan, based on objective and
transparent criteria including those listed in Annex III, be
submitted to the Commission by 30/06/2006.
Article 10
requires that at least 90% of the allowances be issued free of
charge. Annex III of the Directive lists the criteria (some
mandatory, some optional) to be considered in the development of the
National Allocation Plan.
Reports
from Indecon/ENVIROS
The EPA had
previously appointed Indecon International Economic Consultants and
ENVIROS Consulting to assist it in determining the distribution of
national greenhouse gas emissions to the various industrial sectors
and participants involved for NAP1.
ICF

The
Government has decided what proportion of national greenhouse gas
emissions to assign to the trading sector. This issue was the
subject of a separate study led by the Department of the
Environment, Heritage and Local Government and completed by ICF
