Liechtenstein’s Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC).

This document lays down the Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) submitted by Liechtenstein within the frmework of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. The assumptions underlying Liechtensteinís INDC are based on the possibility to achieve emission reductions abroad which may be accounted towards Liechtenstein’s reduction target in 2030. Primary focus will be given on domestic emission reductions: Liechtenstein aims at a reduction of greenhouse gases by 40 % compared to 1990 by 2030.
The scope of Liechtenstein INDCs covers all sectors relevant to the State’s greenhouse gas emissions. The respective sectors and subsectors are based on the most recent IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories: Energy, Industrial Processes, Solvent Use, Agriculture, Land-Use Change and Forestry, and Waste. Liechtensteinís INDCs cover seven greenhouse gases (as foreseen under the UNFCCC and the Kyoto Protocol) and generally apply the base year 1990.
