The analysis of the Moldova Power System for the purpose of calculating the of grid emission factor (GEF) showed that due to Transnistria secessionism, the Moldova electricity authority (Ministry of Economy) does not control the power system on the left bank of the river Nistru, and therefore does not have access to all data on electricity generation in the country. This suggests that there may be limits to the options which can be used to determine the GEF for the country as a whole, and it may only be determined for the right bank. An initial aim of this study is to determine which approach for calculation of the GEF is applicable to Moldova, and if the GEF can be calculated for the country as a whole.
