Kyoto Protocol commitments ending in 2012; no agreed international framework yet on post-2012 Lack of long-term price signal to give incentive for economies to invest in low-carbon alternatives Lack of investment/equity – carbon market contributing to cash flow of approved projects, but rarely contribute to project financing Issues

Carbon Market Program Carbon Funds

1.Need underlying finance 2.Require carbon market technical support 3.Desire highest prices/best conditions for CERs 4.Seek upfront payment for credits to fill finance needs Question: “What do you need to scale up low- carbon projects?” Consultation in DMCs (2005-2006) Question: “What do you need to scale up low- carbon projects?” ADB long-term finance Expert technical team Dedicated credit marketing service Carbon co-finance vehicle: Carbon Funds

Upstream support in project preparation phase Due diligence: technical, financial, legal, safeguards, governance Capacity building trainings Carbon credit valuation Documentation preparation for credits (PIN, PDD, methodology) Obtaining host country approvals Facilitating project Validation & Registration Downstream support in project execution and commercialization Implementation / commissioning Monitoring & Verification Certification & Issuance of CERs to sponsor/developer & fund Technical Support for CDM

Credit Marketing Facility
18
Terms of reference and fee structure pre-negotiated with ADB; contracts directly with project entity as “seller’s agent” to find best offer from buyers Agents are only allowed to collect fee from the seller in percentage terms of actual funds transferred from the buyer to the seller Currently retained agents TFS Green: 2-3.5% charge depending on project size (in CER volume) CM Capital Markets: 1% charge regardless of project size CMF Agents
19
Asia Pacific Carbon Fund (APCF) for credits up to end of 2012, and Future Carbon Fund (FCF) for post-2012 Co-finances projects alongside ADB to help fill project financing gap Purchase of credits generated from now up to 2020 Can purchase 25-75% of expected carbon credits on upfront payment basis and the remaining credits via payment on delivery Lower transaction cost if debt/equity financier is ADB Carbon Co-Finance: Carbon Funds
20
Certain funds today, for commodity with uncertain value in the future Reduced budget commitments to close the financing plan of projects Comprehensive technical and implementation support Extra credits from successful project implementation can be marketed with ADB support for further financial upside CMP Summary: Main Advantages for Project Developers/Sponsors
21
Tech-transfer CDM to accelerate the transfer and diffusion of energy-efficient equipment/appliances and other clean energy technologies using CDM Broadening the Regional Distribution of CDM through capacity building and project identification/development seminars in collaboration with IGES and UNFCCC Secretariat Asia-Pacific REDD financing as part of the global REDD partnership (led by the World Bank FCPF and UN-REDD); possible future public-private regional REDD carbon fund Other Ongoing Initiatives
