CONSUMPTION OF OZONE DEPELTING SUBSTANCES<\/td>\n\u00a0\"smajli<\/td>\n\"arrows<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
<\/span>Definition<\/div>
\n

Substances that deplete the ozone layer (ODSs) are the compounds which cause depletion of the ozone layer. This group includes CFCs, HCFCs, H\u0412FCs CCl4<\/sub>, halons, methyl chloroform, methyl bromide. In general, these compounds are very stable in troposphere and they decompose only under the influence of ultra-violet radiation emitted by the Sun. While decomposing, they release chlorine or bromine atoms which destroy the molecules of stratospheric ozone.<\/p>\n

This indicator quantifies the consumption of ozone-depleting substances (ODSs) in the Republic of Macedonia.\u00a0<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/span>Units<\/div>
\n

\u00a7ODSs consumption is expressed in ODP tons which means quantity of each substance in metric tonnes (MT) multiplied by its Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP).<\/div><\/div>\n

<\/span>Key policy question<\/div>
\n

Does Macedonia fulfil the targets specified under the Montreal Protocol concerning ODSs reduction and elimination?<\/em><\/strong><\/div><\/div>\n

<\/span>Key message<\/div>
\n

Considering the extent of ODSs elimination in the Republic of Macedonia, it may be concluded that the percentage of more than 99.87% of ODSs phased-out in the observed period reflects the fact that our country has not only fulfilled its obligations under the Montreal Protocol, but reached beyond the requirements specified in the Protocol.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Assessment<\/div>
\n

According to data contained in the Country Programme for Phasing-out Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer(1996), the average consumption of ODSs in the observed period amounted 527 tons. According to the provisions of the Montreal Protocol, the said average has been taken as a base level in determining the extent of reduction to be achieved within the restrictions provided for by the Protocol. Table 1 shows the trend of decline in ODSs consumption in the period of the last ten years (2004 \u2013 2013). Apart from ODSs elimination in industry (production of refrigerators and production of rigid and flexible foams), where technologies using ozone depleting substances before 1997 were replaced by non-ODSs solutions, interventions were also made in agriculture through substitution of methyl bromide with alternative solutions that did not involve application of ODSs, in cooling devices servicing and maintenance through establishment of the system for ODS collection and recycling. In the context of the latter, equipment for collection and recycling of cooling devices have been delivered to services and service technicians were trained in good cooling devices servicing practice. For the same purpose, training was organized for custom officers to control import-export of ozone depleting substances at border-crossings of the Republic of Macedonia.<\/p>\n

The national action for ozone layer protection during the observed period has resulted in the complete elimination of the consumption of ODSs in the Republic of Macedonia.<\/p>\n

<\/span>Methodology<\/div>
\n
    \n
  • \u00a0 Methodology for the indicator calculation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The Indicator shows the quantity of consumed ODSs. The value presented has been obtained by multiplying the value of the consumed quantity expressed in metric tons by the Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP). The Table below presents the values of ODP for substances identified to be applied in the Republic of Macedonia and the consumption of which is subject of reduction or control. The Ministry of Environment and Physical Planning\/Ozone Unit has data on ODSs consumption in both metric and ODP tons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

    <\/span>Policy relevance of the indicator<\/div>
    Upon the ratification of the Vienna Convention for the Protection of the Ozone Layer and the Montreal Protocol onSubstances that Deplete the Ozone Layer, series of policy measures aimed at steady reduction and elimination of ODSs consumption were undertaken in the Republic of Macedonia.<\/p>\n

    List of relevant policy documents<\/strong><\/p>\n

    National Environmental Action Plan (NEAP II, 2006)<\/p>\n

    Country Programme for Phasing-out Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer (1996) \u2013 strategic document establishing the main directions in the domain of management and elimination of ODSs in the Republic of Macedonia. It was adopted in 1996. Based on the recommendations of the Country Programme, ODSs elimination has been completed in industry (production of refrigerators, flexible and rigid foams), agriculture, private sector. By 2011, more than 99% of ODSs consumption defined in the National Programme was eliminated. Projects have been implemented by means of the financial support provided by the Multilateral Fund of the Montreal Protocol through the Ministry of Environment and Physical Planning\/Ozone Unit.<\/p>\n
