MITIGATION ACTION IMPLEMENTATION NETWORK

Goals:

Components:1. Regional dialogues of policymakers, experts, potential funders2. Video conferences with policymakers3. Harvesting of best practices, case studies, policy analysis, policy

papers4. On-the-ground support for NAMA design, in-country workshops5. Global dialogues, policy lunches for negotiators

Create regional networks of

policymakers involved in NAMAs

(Asia, Latin America)

Build national capacity to

identify, design and develop financeable

NAMAs

Facilitate financing for

implementation of early NAMAs

Impact the design of the

GCF and other NAMA/climate

finance programs

STATUS OF NAMAS

• The number of NAMAs under development is rising• The number of NAMAs under implementation is growing tho small • funding has primarily come from the path breaking UK-Germany NAMA

Facility, – The GCF presents a major new opportunity

• Latin America has been most active in NAMA development• As of 2015, more than 140 NAMAs are developed or in process, with at

least 43 seeking implementation support

SUSTAINABLE URBAN TRANSPORT – THE COLOMBIA TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT NAMA

• TOD involves shifting how and where public and private investments are made to increase the environmental, economic and social return on continuing investments in mass transit and social housing

• Financial and Technical Assistance for cities’ TOD plans

• Reduce annual GHG emissions 3.6-5.5 MtCO2e/year by 2040

• Status: Preliminary approval by NAMA Facility, finalizing appraisal• Developed by Ministries of Environment and Transport, Planning Department,

FINDETER, with CCAP support

• Currently a 70% subsidy for diesel fuel • Climate finance to subsidize truck and bus efficiency

improvements• Expand upon existing retrofit program (Plan Renova)• Build upon precedent of cook-stove NAMA that cuts LPG

subsidies • Policies to limit imports to efficient vehicles and to reduce

diesel subsidies

NAMAS IN ENERGY EFFICIENCY – THAILAND REFRIGERATOR AND A/C

Source: NAMA Facility

• Emissions account for 20% of country total

• Four areas of activity– Production of green equipment– Servicing and use– Revisions to policy and

Financial Framework– Raising awareness

• Anticipated Mitigation: 19.4 MtCO2e cumulative (2015-19)

• Status: In Appraisal

NAMAS IN RENEWABLE ENERGY – KENYA GEOTHERMAL NAMA

Source: ECN

• Geothermal is best technology to keep Kenyan energy sector low-carbon

• NAMA Supports 820 MW expansion of geothermal capacity in two phases

• Employs technical assistance, risk guarantees for costly drilling , and capacity building

• Status: In Development

NAMAS IN WASTE

Source: Mitigation Partnership Source: CCAP Source: Mitigation Partnership

• Move Solid Waste Management to waste reduction alternatives to reduce landfilling

• Creation of Equity Fund to support projects• Regulatory changes to make alternative technologies economic• Emissions reductions: 40% sectoral reduction if fully

implemented • Status: In development

SHARED VISION ON TRANSFORMATIONAL NAMAS

1) NAMAs must be host country-driven and incorporate dual goals of greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation and sustainable development

2) NAMAs should strive to be sector-wide programs that are national in scope, with the potential for regional or municipal elements

3) NAMAs should include both policies and financial mechanisms targeted to address the main barriers to mitigation activities

4) NAMAs should use NAMA funding to catalyze additional private and public sector finance

11

• Green Climate Fund (GCF)– GCF operationalization holds great promise for NAMAs– $10.3 Billion USD pledged to date– Board expected to select first programs/projects in fall 2015 – $6 billion of initial resources need to be spent by 2017 to start next

replenishment.

• 200 $10 million projects = $2 billion• 25 $40 million programs = $ 2 billion• 10 $200 million programs = $ 2 billion

• NAMA Facility– Pre-approved four projects in its second round, announced in Lima:

• Burkina Faso – Biomass Energy• Peru – Sustainable Urban Transport• Tajikistan – Forestry NAMA• Thailand – Refrigeration and AC

– Denmark and EC have joined to support $100 million 3rd round – Third call for proposals open through July 15, 2015– Likely will be a fourth and perhaps more rounds

CCAP

CLIMATE FINANCE IS FLOWING

12

Both selection processes are competitive with similar criteria:– GHG Impact– Sustainable Development Impact– Paradigm Shift (GCF)/ Transformational ambition (NF) -

replication, strong regulatory framework– Country Ownership– Efficiency/ Effectiveness (GCF) leverage (NF) – catalyze

private sector investment– Need (GCF only)

GCF also requires 50% of finance flows to adaptation and half of that to LDCs while NF finances only mitigation

CCAP

GCF AND UK-GERMAN NAMA FACILITY HAVE SIMILAR SELECTION CRITERIA

13

• NAMAs should be bold – They should transform existing structures that prevent mitigation (e.g. fossil fuel subsidies, anti-competitive regulations, etc.) and create policies that drive low carbon outcomes

• NAMAs should be at a program scale – By funding programs, rather than specific projects, the funder can achieve greater scale, replication, and overall ambition. – Programs should incorporate policy changes, new financial mechanisms, and

some bankable projects. – Host country institutions should be empowered to select additional domestic

projects, based on program criteria that the funder has approved (rather than the funder making investment decisions on each specific project)

• NAMAs should not only leverage private sector and other funding but also demonstrate “paradigm shift”. Need to avoid business as usual proposals which show leverage but not transformation.

CCAP

CONCLUSIONS ON NAMAS

14

• Many INDCs are likely to be quantitative and may not include specifics on sector-specific policies

• Some developing countries are likely to propose INDCs with elements conditional on international support

• Conditional INDC elements will likely need to be translated into investment strategies after Paris for consideration by the GCF

• The NAMA Facility has served as a quasi-laboratory for the GCF to date – it could continue to test bold ideas on financing and NAMA design in the future
