I. Basic Approaches

Basic Approaches  To lead paradigm shift Climate Policy  Sustainable DevelopmentClimate Policy  Sustainable Development From Cost  To Economic Benefit (‘Win-Win’)From Cost  To Economic Benefit (‘Win-Win’)  To minimize inter-ministry conflicts To focus Non-Energy Sectors, Non-CO2 GHGsTo focus Non-Energy Sectors, Non-CO2 GHGs To emphasize Co-benefitsTo emphasize Co-benefits  To highlight Impact & Adaptation To support basic researches on scienceTo support basic researches on science To support IPCC WGI & WG II ActivitiesTo support IPCC WGI & WG II Activities  To play a coordinating role To design a structure of stakeholders’ participationTo design a structure of stakeholders’ participation To enhance environmental education (School/Society)To enhance environmental education (School/Society)

II. Negotiation: UNFCCC and Beyond Kyoto

Negotiation: UNFCCC/Beyond Kyoto  New Developments Change of US Position  Still, it takes time.Change of US Position  Still, it takes time. UN Headquarter  New Initiative (Earth Summit?)UN Headquarter  New Initiative (Earth Summit?) EU’s initiative  G8 Summit (2008 in Tokyo)EU’s initiative  G8 Summit (2008 in Tokyo) APP  Expansion ?APP  Expansion ? More focus on Impact & AdaptationMore focus on Impact & Adaptation  Positioning UNFCCC Discussions for Beyond KyotoUNFCCC Discussions for Beyond Kyoto Bilateral Negotiation with Major CountriesBilateral Negotiation with Major Countries

III. CDM

Reduction of Emissions achieved by a Project compared to the scenario without CDM Years of operation of the project CO 2 Emissions (in kt CO ) Baseline Emissions (to be determined ex ante) Emissions of the CDM project (to be monitored along crediting period) Volume of Certified Emissions Reductions (CER) Methodologies required for : Determination of Baseline Emissions Monitoring CDM Project Emissions Calculation of Emission Reductions

A key concept: 1 CER = 1 more ton CO 2 emitted in Annex 1 countries 1 CER = 1 more ton CO 2 emitted in Annex 1 countries Only emission reductions that are ADDITIONAL to emission reductions that would have occurred without CDM Only emission reductions that are ADDITIONAL to emission reductions that would have occurred without CDM  Not all “Emission Reductions” are eligible to CDM Ex: least cost hydro may or may not be eligible Ex: least cost hydro may or may not be eligible ADDITIONALITY

A key concept: ADDITIONALITY Additionality established on the basis of: Financial Analysis : Additional cost, lower IRR, etc… Financial Analysis : Additional cost, lower IRR, etc… OR: Barriers preventing the “clean” project to take place: Barriers preventing the “clean” project to take place: –Difficulties to achieve financial closure ( no long term commercial loans) –Technology Risk: first of kind in the country (high pressure boilers Cogen) –Social / market acceptability (scavengers resettlement for landfill gas to power) –Etc.

CDM Executive Board ► Approves Baseline and Monitoring Methodologies ► Accredits the Certifiers (Operational Entities) Designed Operational Entities Project Host Country ► Forwards the Application for Validation and Registration ► validation report and registration application Project Developer ► Letter(s) of Approval by Participant Countries ► Calculates "Baseline" and prepares a PDD (Project Design Document) using an Approved Methodology ► Registers projects validated by OEs ► Validate proposed CDM projects and forward applications to EB for registration Cycle Before Project

CDM Executive Board ► Approves Baseline and Monitoring Methodologies ► Accredits the Certifiers (Operational Entities) Designed Operational Entities Project Host Country ► Forwards the Application for Validation and Registration ► validation report and registration application Project Developer Project Developer and Host Country ► Shares issued CERs according to the agreement between ► Letter of Approval ► Calculates "Baseline" and prepares a PDD using approved Methodology ► Monitor Emissions during the project and calculates Emissions Reductions ► Requests validation of Emission Reductions to get the CERs ► Registers projects validated by OEs ► Issues the Certificates (CERs) ► verification & certification report and request issuance of credits (CERs) ► Validate proposed CDM projects and forward applications to EB for registration ► Verify and certify emissions reductions Cycle during Project

Project Host Country Project Developer Project Developer and Host Country ► Shares issued CERs according to the agreement between ► Letter of Approval ► Calculates "Baseline" and prepares a PDD using approved Methodology ► Performs Monitoring of Emissions during the project and calculates emissions reductions Carbon Market Place (outside WB) Carbon Funds >30, 10 inside WB Direct Sales Purchase Agreements CERs $ $ + Technical Assistance for CDM project cycle WB Comparative Advantage Credits (CERs) for Sale

As a result, it can be expected that this growth may continue for a while.

V. For Your Information 0 Clean Investment Framework (WB) 0 Japan Carbon Finance, Ltd. (JFC)

Clean Investment Framework (WB)   Pillar 1: Energy for Development and Access for the Poor   Pillar 2: Policies and Financial Requirements to Support a Transition to a Low Carbon Economy   Pillar 3: Need for Investments to Reduce Vulnerability to Climate Variability and Risk

Clean Investment Framework (WB)  G8 Meeting in 2005  WB/IEA  Development Committee of the WB  Accept the clean investment framework (Sept. 2006)  2 nd Stage: Case Study on +5 countries (China/India/Brazil/Mexico/South Africa)  Report to G8 Meeting in 2008 (Japan)

Clean Investment Framework (WB) Pillar 1  Energy for Development and Access for the Poor  1.4 billion people will not have access to electricity by (IEA estimates)  Electricity supply needs $165 billion p.a.  Current private and public sector resources fund $80 billion p.a.  Energy has an important role in economic growth and poverty alleviation  The challenges are  to provide the poor with access to modern clean energy  to enable these financial instruments to bridge financial gap

Clean Investment Framework (WB) Pillar 2  Transition to a Low Carbon Economy  Multi-Gas/Multi-Sector Strategies and International Emission Trading  Reducing Financial Needs  Technologies (currently available and will be)  Requires tens of billions of dollars p.a. of Incremental Investments in energy sector (especially Power Sector)  Scaling up  Energy Efficiency Improvement Programs  Renewable Energy  Financial Instruments

Clean Investment Framework (WB) Pillar 3  Adaptation to Climate Risk  Tens of billions dollars per year of ODA & concessional finance investments are exposed to climate risks – at least $1 billion per year is needed to climate-proof the development portfolio  Response by private sector constrained by  Lack of information on the nature of the risks and adaptation options  Insufficient risk spreading mechanisms – e.g. insurance  Funding  ODA  GEF Special Funds for Adaptation  CDM (2% for Adaptation Funds)
