  1. CDM/JI in the Transport Sector Naoyuki Hasegawa Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, Japan hasegawa-n27@mlit.go.jp

  2. World CO2 Emission Sources

  3. CO2 Emission Increase Rate (2000/1990) World OECD Total 126% 29% 25% 24% 22% 13% 13% 89% Total Road Transport China 33% Latin America Africa 94% 82% 47% 47% 42% 62% 34% 33% 27% Asia CDM in Transport is less active

  4. Workshop on CDM/JI in the Transport Sector (March 2003, Tokyo) Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport • Around 20 experts from the world and around 80 observers • Exchange experience and information • 17 presentations • 8 on implemented or proposed projects • 4 on transport or CDM overview in developing countries • 5 on basic research, overview of the sector, etc • Discuss how to overcome the difficulty • Recommendations http://teikougaisha.mlit.go.jp/wsdocs/

  5. Implemented and Proposed Projects • Fuel Switch (CNG, Electricity (Trolly), etc)including engine replacement • Benefit to atmosphere pollution • Easier baseline/monitoring for fleet projects • Inspection and Maintenance • Baseline may be controversial • Substantial contribution to environment • Comprehensive Transport Management

  6. Discussion Points • Data Collection • Costly, but benefit not only to CO2 • Local air quality • Traffic congestion/Traffic demand • Technical type projects vs. Software – demand side initiatives • Baseline 1 (policy vs. reality) • Baseline 2 (accuracy vs. feasibility)

  7. Baseline 1 (Policy vs. Reality) • Inspection required by regulation, but not implemented • CDM to bring resource to overcome the barrier (finance, technologies, etc) • Railway planned, but not constructed Reality should be the baseline

  8. Baseline 2 (accuracy vs. feasibility) • Accurate baseline (and monitoring) can be costly, and sometime not possible • Leakage can be even more difficult • If positive impact is expected, certain level of uncertainty can be allowed with some penalty Uncertainty should be allowed with some CER reduction Standardization of methodologies recommended (similar to small scale)

  9. Software - Demand Side Initiative Change people’s behavior, but not involve major hardware investment • Eco-driving • Public Transport Promotion • Regulation for inspection/maintenance • Car sharing • Incentives for non-motorized transit (bikes, etc) • etc. With approval by the host country, this should be CDM

  10. Recommendations • CDM Executive Board to set up a Panel • identify requirements for the basic data for the transport CDM • assess how the CDM can address the need for transportation and land use planning, new transit infrastructure to slow down motorization

  11. Recommendation (cont’d) • examine the appropriateness as CDM of • projects to remove the barriers to implementation of existing policies • projects that aim to change people's behavior • consider the feasibility of streamlining and discounting, including standardization, of methodologies
