National Initiatives Legislation and government actions: CONAMA* resolutions about ODS recovery and licensing system ANEEL** resolution that mandated funding (0.5% NOR) for “Energy Efficiency Programme”, creating conditions for fridge replacement initiatives. 200,000 fridges in past 3 years ABNT – Standard for Demanufacturing of Refrigeration equipment National Waste Policy – To be approved by end 2010 This legislation will create obligations for manufacturers and importers concerning collection and recycling WEEE “Old fridges replacement plan” - This program will replace about 10 million fridges over 5 to 10 years - Estimated total CFC collection about 3,000 to 5,000 tonnes *CONAMA – National Environmental Council ** ANEEL – National Electric Energy Agency *** ABNT – National Association for Standardization

ODS Destruction in Brazil • Potential Technology: • Essencis Research on “Non Thermal destruction” Incineration at Hazardous waste incinerators 22 facilities in the country, Installed capacity about 75,000 tonnes/year 7 Capable to deal with CFC, with minor investment in specialized burners (US$ 500.000) UNDP is finalizing report on current destruction capacity in Brazil

ODS Destruction Challenges • Cost : • Initial Investment - Possible source of funding: • MLF; GEF; bi-lateral cooperation • Sustainable Operation - Possible sources of funding: • Partnership with UNDP - MDG Carbon Facility Carbon Market • Incineration in Brazil vs offsets under CAR and VCS • Export model not suitable for Brazil: • Why export given sufficient local destruction capacity? • Legal issues
Sustainable (and desirable) Scenario Good carbon market revenue is essential to develop a sustainable business
Conclusion Best way to start is “Step by Step” Export model not suitable for Brazil MLF; GEF; Bi-lateral cooperation: donor grant is crucial for start up activities / initial investment National Energy Efficiency Utilities Programme is an important catalyst for the market Government, Implementing agencies and private companies must join efforts to develop the national market In the future, Compliance Carbon Market rather than Voluntary Carbon Market: better price levels and predictability Carbon financing is critical to sustainability of CFC collection from Foam and CFC destruction activities
