Overview Working Group 2 Climate Activities to date Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Overview Working Group 2 Climate Activities to date Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

RENA Activity Schemes In total 24 sub-activities Activity Scheme 1: Regional Climate Change Action Platform to converge towards the EU climate policy and legislation (ReCAP) Activity Scheme 2: Creation of GHG inventories, implementation of the Monitoring Mechanism Decision, including related institutional and administrative capacity considerations Activity Scheme 3: Capacity building on the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Overview Working Group 2 Climate Activities to date All documents on Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Conclusions RENA has been a vehicle for the region to explore and unlock opportunities to implement elements of EU climate acquis through: –Awareness raising at all levels –Establish a platform of experts from the RENA region and Commission and EU MS experts –Development of concrete projects –Assist in defining capacity building needs Awareness level and capacity is modest in the RENA region. For policies and measures considerable efforts will be necessary Human resources and skills capacity needs to be built Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Conclusions All RENA beneficiaries (except for Croatia) lack targets for reducing GHG emissions Targets and pledges are needed for concrete climate strategies: –No targets: Strategies risk to be Generic Non-integrated (with not alligned sector targets at best) –RENA beneficiaries to be encouraged to start work on targets Adaptation was not addressed until 2012 under RENA. Beneficiaries indicated that it is one of their priorities in the successor programme Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Conclusions 2013 right time to start on adaptation (EU Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change adopted in April 2013) Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

ECRAN Tentative date for kick-of is end June 2013 Around 10 Meuro Over one-third for climate related activities Active engagement of public sector expertise through TAIEX Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Proposal for follow-up activities for the period 2013 – 2016 Four working Groups WG 1: Climate Policy Development and Climate Awareness WG 2: GHG Inventory and the MMR WG 3: Emission Trading WG 4: Adaptation Horizontal activities (under steering by Country Coordinators and DG Clima) Handbook on EU Clima Acquis to be prepared and disseminated Tables of concordance and implementation questionnaires Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Follow-up activities for the period 2013 – 2016 Working Group 1: ECRAN Climate to focus on sharing EU experiences to facilitate national climate policy development Continue National High level events, but on selected topics Target on IPA Follow Up Activities to promote / facilitate the ECRAN beneficiaries to put forward pledges / commitments for the 2015 international climate agreement and for the period until 2020/2030 Continued communication and awareness raising Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Follow-up activities for the period 2013 – 2016 Working Group 2: MMR exercise (GHG inventory work and training on different CRF sectors, eg agriculture, LULUCF, industry, waste, energy, etc.) Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

follow-up activities for the period 2013 – 2016 Working Group 3: MRV related trainings (ETS) Roadmaps for ETS implementation Working Group 4: Cooperation on adaptation (regional adaptation planning) Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union

Next steps ECRAN formal start (Smooth follow up after closure of RENA is targeted) Concrete Workplan for 2013 and 2014 on basis of Approved Orientation Paper Involvement of Member States though TAIEX (Slovenia, Netherlands already announced interest) Involvement of Experts though ECRAN Country Coordinators to prepare national ECRAN Climate Platform with relevant line authorities (eg energy and transport) Kick of with Country Coordinators meeting (Target end of June 2013) Project implemented by Human Dynamics Consortium This Project is funded by the European Union
