UNFCCCNoting that:

� the LARGEST SHARE of historical and current GHG emissions originated in developed countries,

� the PER CAPITA EMISSIONS in developing countries are still relatively LOW and

� the share of global GHG emissions from developing countries will GROW to meet their social and development needs,

Developed countries:

� have the obligation to take the lead in combating climate change and the adverse effectsthereof &

� have commitments to provide financial resources, including for the transfer of technology, fordeveloping countries

KyotoProtocol: Taking Root� 182 Countries & the EEC have

ratified (as of 16 October 2008) = 63.7% of total carbon dioxide emissions, 1990 as the base yr

� Entered into Force on 16 Feb ’05

� Developed countries to implement domestic domestic policies and measures to achieve the mandatory targets

� Three (3) innovative mechanisms supplementalsupplemental to domestic action:

- Joint Implementation

- Emission Trading

A legally binding instrumentthat strengthens the UNFCCC by committing developed countries which have accepted it to individual, quantified GHG emission and limitation targets(an average total cut in GHG emissions of 5% from 1990 levels for the period 2008-2012)

-- Clean Development MechanismClean Development Mechanism

or CDMor CDM

Page 6: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) - World Banksiteresources.worldbank.org/INTCARFINASS/Resources/... · Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Overview, ... CDM Executive Board (EB)

Clean Development MechanismSince the atmosphere is equally damaged by GHG emissions wherever they happen and equally helped by cutbacks in emissions wherever they are made, the CDM, as a market-based flexibility mechanism:

� allows Annex I countries to earn “certified emission reduction units (CERsCERs)” that can be applied to partiallypartiallymeetmeet their GHG reduction commitments under the KP

� whenever they undertake GHG-reducing projects that contribute to sustainable developmentsustainable development in a non-Annex I Party, where land, technology and labor are less costly, &

� concomitantly result in real, measurable, verifiable real, measurable, verifiable and longand long--termterm GHG reductionsGHG reductions that are additionaladditional to any that would otherwise occur

Annex I Countries / Parties:UNFCCC Annex I list -developed countries including Economies in Transition

NON-Annex I Countries / Parties:developing countries not bound by emission reduction targets

Page 7: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) - World Banksiteresources.worldbank.org/INTCARFINASS/Resources/... · Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Overview, ... CDM Executive Board (EB)

CDM as a Market-based Mechanism

FOR Annex 1 countries:

� Enables developedcountries to meet their emission reduction commitments in a flexible and cost-effective manner

� As investors, developed countries benefit by obtaining Certified Emission Reduction units (CERs) for KP partial compliance

FOR non-Annex 1 countries:

� Assists developingcountries in meeting their sustainable development objectives

� As host countries, developing countries benefit in the form of investment, access to cleaner and better technology, and sustainable development

Page 8: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) - World Banksiteresources.worldbank.org/INTCARFINASS/Resources/... · Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Overview, ... CDM Executive Board (EB)

CER: A special product

� CER is a form of payment for the Project Proponent not to produce

- BUT to reduce GHG emissions

� Thus, the importance of special requirements

- Definition of baselines

- Calculation of net GHG emission reductions

- Monitoring of GHG emission reductions

Page 9: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) - World Banksiteresources.worldbank.org/INTCARFINASS/Resources/... · Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Overview, ... CDM Executive Board (EB)

Conditions for CDM Projects� Assist Non-Annex I Parties in achieving SD� Additional if GHG emissions are reduced below those that

would have occurred in the absence of the registered CDM project activity

� Annex I Parties are to refrain from using CERs generated from nuclear facilities to meet their quantified GHG reduction targets

� Public funding from Annex I Parties must not result in the diversion of ODA and separate from and not counted towards their financial obligations under the UNFCCC and KP

� LULUCF project activities presently limited to Afforestationand Reforestation

* PDD, Validation Report and Letter of Approval from Host Country are required in order to be registered as a CDM project activity

Page 10: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) - World Banksiteresources.worldbank.org/INTCARFINASS/Resources/... · Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Overview, ... CDM Executive Board (EB)

Official Development Assistance

� No Diversion of ODA is allowed

� Annex I countries shall not divert ODA funds that previously have been directed to other purposes in the respective host country

� Not diverted for the purchase of CERs from a CDM project and

� Public funding is to be separate from and not counted towards the financial obligations of those Parties

� Such evidence should be given by the Annex I country

� Must be able to prove that a project requires CDM assistance even with favorable loan conditions

� CDM Status often helps in financing

� A GHG-reducing project becomes more attractive to equity and debt investors

Page 11: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) - World Banksiteresources.worldbank.org/INTCARFINASS/Resources/... · Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Overview, ... CDM Executive Board (EB)

Additionality

Interpretation:

� The CDM status will be given only to those projects which cannot be implemented without it

� Those projects which can/will be carried out in the course of regular business (Business-As-Usual or BAU projects) are DISqualified.

� CERs are an incentive to encourage developers to undertake GHG mitigation projects that do not happen under usual circumstances

� CERs are NOT offered as a reward for accomplishing GHG mitigation, no matter how much GHG reduction a project achieves

Page 12: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) - World Banksiteresources.worldbank.org/INTCARFINASS/Resources/... · Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Overview, ... CDM Executive Board (EB)

CDM Programme of Activities

CDM Project activities under a program of activities (CPAs) can be registered as a single CDM project activity provided that approved methodologies are used

Program of activities (PoA)� Voluntary coordinated action by a private or public entity

� w/c coordinates and implements any policy/measure or stated goal and

� w/c leads to GHG emission reductions or increased removal by sinks additionally

via a # of CDM program activities

� PoA addressing mandatory policies and regulations are permissible provided it is demonstrated that these policies and regulations are not enforced as envisaged. If enforced, the effect of PoA is to increase the enforcement beyond the mandatory level required

State and Trends of the

Carbon Market

Page 30: Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) - World Banksiteresources.worldbank.org/INTCARFINASS/Resources/... · Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Overview, ... CDM Executive Board (EB)

GHG emissions:

A new commodity is emerging

� Targets are expressed as levels of allowed emissions, or “assigned amounts,” over the 2008-2012 commitment period, divided into “assigned amount units” (AAUs).Annex I countries that have emission units to spare - emissions permitted them but not "used" – are allowed to sell this excess capacity to Annex I countries that are over their targets

� Other units which may be transferred under the emissions tradingscheme, each equal to one tonne of CO2:� A removal unit (RMU) on the basis of land use, land-use

change and forestry (LULUCF) activities such as reforestation � An emission reduction unit (ERU) generated by a joint

implementation project � A certified emission reduction (CER) generated from a CDM

project activity

� European Union Allowance (EUA)� Carbon credits: both an environmental and a financial asset

� Environmental asset: reducing carbon emissions which cause global warming & climate change

� Financial asset: being bought and sold in emerging carbon markets

Price and Payment� Price

� Determined by supply and demand

� No official prices

� Most observers agree that issued CERs have a similar value to EU Emissions Trading Scheme Allowances

� Approx. 20 € in August 2007

Based on Price Level for second period EUAs, the level of most predictions for the price to be in average (Pomar/MarmetProject Report, 30 August 2007)

� Approx. €15.62 for December 2008 deliveryThe benchmark CER contract on the secondary market, on the European Climate Exchange as of November 7(http://www.carbonpositive.net/viewarticle.aspx?articleID=137)

� Payment-against-delivery contracts

� Most common arrangement under current practice

� No principal risk for buyer even in case of non-delivery (cf. pre-payment contracts)

� However, the buyer sustains reconstitution risk

→ In case of non-delivery, the buyer will have to procure the contracted amount from other sources to stay in compliance. This could be expensive.
