Post-Kyoto Initiatives

Priorities going forward Integrate carbon finance into public and private investment decisions for low-carbon development through strategic programs of investment Support the establishment of a long-term regulatory framework that provides certainty of a carbon price signal Create incentives for reducing deforestation Build capacity for “market readiness” Pursue pioneering work of BioCF and CDCF to bring benefits of carbon finance to the poorest Satisfy immediate needs of buyers and sellers (UCF T2)

The Carbon Partnership Facility A fund to scale up investment in clean technology through programmatic and sector-based approaches Mission Participation Support systematic approaches to low carbon growth by countries to catalyze investment in clean technologies The governance of the CPF is based on a partnership of buyers and sellers of carbon credits CPF will utilize programmatic approaches to scale up emission reduction programs Carbon finance included in integrated financing packages linked to World Bank operations Develop innovative methodologies in areas such as energy efficiency, urban transport and city-wide programs; and promote the introduction of new technologies € 132.5 million in buyer commitments to Carbon Fund; 1st tranche is closed Agreements signed with Seller Participants for six programs Morocco Solid Waste Management Vietnam Renewable Energy Brazil Solid Waste Management Thailand Clean Energy Program China Regional Biogas Program Jordan Amman Green Growth Program € 14.6 million in donor contributions in Carbon Asset Development Fund (for program prep.) The CPF provides Buyer Participants with access to large volume of carbon credits & information about investment opportunities in related projects Contact: Richard Zechter, CPF Coordinator rzechter@worldbank.org

The Forest Carbon Partnership Facility Has established collaborative partnership & transparent platform for meaningful exchanges on REDD plus issues Mission Participation Operational since June 2008 Readiness fund – $215+ million pledged ($5 million minimum contribution) to Prepare developing forest countries for REDD+ (national monitoring, reference scenarios, strategies, management arrangements) Inform UNFCCC negotiations on REDD plus Carbon Fund – $155+ million raised to date ($5 million minimum contribution) Guide REDD+* readiness preparation process Due to high demand, REDD Country participation increased from 0 to 20 to 37 12 Donor Participants 7 Carbon Fund Participants Balanced governance structure; role of the Bank is facilitator 6 Observers Other partners Brazil (South-South cooperation) Global Environment Facility World Bank Institute Technical assistance service providers Contact: Benoît Bosquet, FCPF Coordinator http://www.forestcarbonpartnership.org/fcp/ *Reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, forest conservation, the sustainable management of forests and the enhancement of forest carbon stocks in developing countries.

Partnership for Market Readiness (PMR) A grant-based capacity-building fund providing a platform for collective innovation on new market instruments Mission Participation Contribute to enhancement of global mitigation efforts post-2012 via market instruments Provide a platform for technical discussions, South-South exchange and collective innovation on new market instruments in developing countries Capacity building and piloting that is country-led and builds on country priorities Share lessons learned Participants will include: Developing countries/emerging economies Countries that donate financially A Partnership Assembly consisting of balanced representatives of both developed and developing country Participants form the decision making body The Partnership will engage private entities and relevant organizations The World Bank will provide secretariat and technical support No requirement for minimum donor contribution, but US$5 million to be eligible for a Participant Committee (possible subset of the Partnership Assembly) Supported activities Support countries’ development of readiness for market instruments Explore, piloting and testing domestic emissions trading and non-GHG based schemes such as renewable energy & energy efficiency trading Explore and testing international market instruments such as reformed CDM, sectoral and NAMA crediting – as well as new instruments not yet envisioned Contact: Xueman Wang xwang5@worldbank.org

Donor supported BioCF+ BioCarbon Fund Buyer Windows Next generation BioCarbon Fund – A/R, project REDD+ and agriculture carbon The World Bank is continuing the groundbreaking work done by its BioCarbon Fund to bring carbon markets to rural communities because of the significant role this has in alleviating poverty. The fund will continue testing and piloting while scaling up the work that it has started… Donor supported BioCF+ BioCarbon Fund Buyer Windows Help support sellers develop and bring assets to market Design and test of innovative financing approaches Continue to work on novel approaches to land-based carbon accounting, simplify processes New, revolutionary methodological advances at the landscape level Use BioCF lessons learned to promote changes in land-based rules Create value for additional co-benefits Work on potential NAMA crediting Donor supported A/R scale up Landscape approach Provide sellers guaranteed buyers Opportunities for scaling up existing afforestation/reforestation projects Upfront financing through advanced payments Could have dedicated country-windows Break free of fragmentation of accounting for each project activity separately Allow for any land-based activities that reduce emissions within a project boundary, to be credited Include carbon accounted for by other means like cookstoves tCER/VER TBD Soil sequestration Pilot project REDD+ Pilot areas not yet tested to include croplands, grasslands, rice paddies, wetlands and biochar Will create VERs and VCUs Dedicated agriculture window Funding comes from public and private sectors Develop model for testing the quantification and monetization of co-benefits in a REDD+ project beyond the carbon component Test concept of wildlife premium Creating VER with bundled co-benefits VER/VCU VER/VCU Contact: Ellysar Baroudy, BioCarbon Fund Manager ebaroudy@worldbank.org

Expanding carbon finance in low-income countries – Carbon Pioneering and Financing Facility CPaFF The Carbon Pioneering and Financing Facility (CPaFF) Build readiness and capacity to access carbon markets and support a pipeline of low-carbon investment opportunities in the poorest countries with a focus on fighting energy poverty. This initiative will work through three complementary components… Carbon Asset Pioneering Fund Carbon Financing Fund Pioneering Buyer Mechanism Promote reforms in carbon market rules to benefit low income countries: Suppressed energy demand and avoided emissions Standardized baselines Support the definition of and transition towards the next generation of market mechanisms Build capacity & lend technical assistance to carbon finance project entities Support African and LDC climate negotiators Research and Develop innovative carbon financing Allowing carbon finance to contribute to closing the critical investment financing gap Initially donor supported then self sustaining Allows monetization of carbon revenues to provide up-front financing Revolving Grant Facility Well adapted to micro / community level investments w/ high capital cost Offers a portfolio of mostly energy and energy efficiency projects in low-income countries (including cookstoves, household energy, etc.) Public and private sector buyers Supports sellers with project development assistance and provides conduit to market Up-front fee followed by right of first refusal to sign Primary ERPA Contact: Brice Quesnel, Fund Manager bquesnel@worldbank.org

A decade after their establishment, the maturing carbon markets have originated the largest and least risky offset projects – leaving the World Bank and its partners poised to continue pioneering. Contacts
