LuftverkehrUnder what conditions can the verification of emissions reports be waived?

LV 038Answer

Aircraft operators that have emitted less than 25,000 tonnes of CO2 in a calendar year (in relation to the original geographical scope) or less than 3,000 tonnes of CO2 (in relation to the reduced geographical scope) may waive the verification of their emission report if this was entirely created using data from the ETS Eurocontrol Support Facility. The use of the Small Emitters Tool (see answer LV 010) is not sufficient to waive verification.

It is not necessary to change the monitoring plan in order to waive verification.

If verification is waived legitimately, the emission report can be sent directly to the German Emissions Trading Authority (DEHSt) after being created in Form Management System (FMS). For this purpose, Aircraft operators, instead of the verifiers, must create a zip file from FMS. The relevant option has been set up in FMS. The zip file and all supporting documents, if any, must then be forwarded to DEHSt in an electronically signed VPS message.

If verification has been legitimately waived, VET values entered into the Union Registry do not need to be confirmed by verifiers. The registrar will provide confirmation. Please note that this is a purely technical confirmation unrelated to the accuracy of the VET values since the competent authority can only issue a statement after having thoroughly examined the content of emissions reports.
