  1. Grounding Green PowerDeveloping Countries and Donors in the Renewable Energy Transition • Manish Bapna, Managing Director • Lutz Weischer, Research Analyst

  2. Renewables are GrowingNew capacity is likely to outpace fossil fuels Total World Electricity Capacity by Source | 2009 New Electricity Capacity Added Worldwide by Source | 2008-2009 Source: Renewables 2010 Global Status Report. REN 21, Paris. * Renewables include large hydropower.

  3. Developing Countries are at the Forefront78% of total new capacity will be in developing countries. Renewables will be the largest share. Current Renewable Electricity Capacity Projected New Capacity 2008-2035 (GW) Sources: IPCC Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources and IEA World Energy Outlook 2010 New Policy Scenario.

  4. Current Renewable Deployment is InsufficientWe’re scaling up but we need to scale up faster. Current Policy Scenario New Policy Scenario 450 Scenario What is happening What needs to happen Source: IEA World Energy Outlook 2010.

  5. ChallengesWe’re scaling up but we need to scale up smarter. • Economic barriers • Technical barriers • Political barriers

  6. Smart Renewable Energy PolicyMoving from crises to opportunity • Clear Objectives • Comprehensive Approach • Private Investment Leverage • Cost-Effectiveness • Innovation • Transparency, Accountability, Participation

  7. From Principles to PracticeAn evidence-based approach to smart renewable energy policy

  8. Brazil, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Mexico, Morocco, Mozambique, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Philippines, Tanzania, Thailand Foundations for Our AnalysisDeveloping country experience

  9. What is Smart Renewable Energy Policy in Developing Countries? Planning and Strategy Attractive Financing Options Technical Environment Policy and Regulatory Framework • Planning and Strategy • Generation Based Incentives • Policy and Regulatory Framework • Technical Capacity • Attractive Financing Generation- Based Incentives

  10. Planning and Strategy How Can Donors Support Smart Renewable Energy Policy? Support for policy, regulation and institutions Policy and Regulatory Framework • Technical Assistance • Capacity Building, also for Civil Society • Experience Sharing Generation- Based Incentives

  11. Planning and Strategy How can donors support smart renewable energy policy? Building technical capacity Policy and Regulatory Framework • Grid • Installation • Maintenance • Operations Technical Environment Generation- Based Incentives

  12. Planning and Strategy How can donors support smart renewable energy policy? Concessional Finance and Risk Mitigation Policy and Regulatory Framework • Concessional loans • Loan refinancing • Risk guarantees Attractive Financing Options Technical Environment Generation- Based Incentives

  13. Planning and Strategy How can donors support smart renewable energy policy? Financing generation-based incentives Policy and Regulatory Framework • No examples yet • Large opportunities for scale up Attractive Financing Options Technical Environment Generation- Based Incentives Generation- Based Incentives

  14. A Window of OpportunityThe moment for smart policy support • New Green Climate Fund • World Bank Energy Strategy • U.S. Government’s Investing in Clean Energy Strategy • Norway’s Energy+ Partnership Concept • Germany’s International Climate Initiative
