  6. Annual value of CDM/JIEmission Reductions Transactions (billion USD) (up to 2012 vintages) Already more than 5 billion dollars of North-South Net Transfer before end of 2012 • However still some uncertainties for post 2012 (second commitment period) Source: State and Trends of the Carbon Market 2008.

  7. Very few CDM projects so far in Sub-Saharan Africa Location of approved CDM projects (source: UNFCCC) The number of CDM projects should be greater

  8. Same facilities hosting CDM projects in other regions also exist in Sub Saharan Africa

  9. Check the Potential : How many potential CDM projects in SSA similar to projects developed in other countries with approved methodologies ?  22 types of projects  44 countries • Investigate the reasons why not implemented :  Recommendations

  17. Annual Emissions Reductions in tCO2 and in proportion of countries emissions Potential for future emissions reductions in proportion of current emissions (CO2) (100% = 1)(Note: extremely high values observed for certain countries are due to the fact that flaring emissions where not reflected in official country emissions data)

  18. USDpertC02 Million tons of CO2 avoided USDperMW Additional Power in MW Investment Curves: - tCO2 Reductions Potential - Additional Power Generation Capacity During projects lifetime (10 or 21 years)

  19. III. Barriers and Recommendations

  20. 1. Appropriate Regulatory Framework is missing Example : Cogeneration • Many cogeneration projects in UNFCCC validation/registration pipeline: Brazil, India, etc. • Very few in Sub-Saharan Africa. But there are sugar factories, agro-industry, refineries, chemical industry,… • Key bottleneck in Africa: No Feed-in Tariff  no possibility to sale electricity  no possibility to get credits  no CDM project Missing: Regulatory Framework for Auto-producers Biofuels: Regulatory Framework also missing

  21. 1. Appropriate Regulatory Framework is missing Carbon Finance cannot provide TA to fix it However, support can be provided by Technical Units of International Development Agencies for developing missing regulations

  22. Recommendations to overcome Barriers 1. Complementary Regulatory Framework needs to be developed 2.Market access requires appropriate infrastructure planning and policies to overcome logistics bottlenecks 3. Technical information on mature, clean energy technologies must be appropriately disseminated 4. The local skills required to run mature, clean technologies must be developed 5.Technical Assistance and R&D are required to achieve full efficiency andsustainability of clean energy technologies 6. Develop local expertise and institutional procedures to facilitate project developers’access to an increasing range of financial resources earmarked for climate change 7.Post-Kyoto Carbon Funds are required 8. However, Carbon Finance alone will not solve the investment financing gap.Earmarked Climate Investment Funds (CIFs) are essential Technical Units of Development Agencies are used to channel TA and Financing at Project Level – Integration is key
