THE NETWORKED CARBON MARKETS INITIATIVE Barcelona May 26, 2017
MARKETS, KEY TOOL TO ADDRESS CLIMATE CHALLENGES Political alignment: NDCs of 84 countries call for markets and/or carbon pricing mechanisms – including 72 in developing countries Cost Savings: market efficiencies reduce costs of low carbon growth Resource mobilization: crowd-in public and private capital Cost of each country acts Intl cooperation through Intl cooperation through alone carbon market by 2030 carbon market by 2050 3 5 0 0 % % $ $ $ 2 Source : World Bank Group, 2016
AN INTERNATIONAL MARKET - 2030 3
4 WHERE DO MARKETS FIT UNDER PARIS? Article 6 has the opening for developing markets – agreement on guidance and rules is still under negotiation by Parties Using cooperative approaches to enhance mitigation ambition under NDCs Objectives Art. 6.2 Art. 6.4 Under the authority/ supervision of the Top Down Bottom-up Under bi- or plurilateral governance Governance COP Metrics Introduces “mitigation outcomes” (MOs) from “a mechanism to contribute to the mitigation of any mechanism/procedure/protocol GHG and support sustainable development” Parties can design and use carbon pricing instruments domestically. Today. Examples: Chile, China, India, Mexico and South Africa, among others. Markets instruments should create demand for a domestic market that will grow over time to include linkages to create an international market. Bottom-up markets appear to be the most promising approach under the Article 6.2 paradigm.
5 WHERE DO MARKETS FIT IN PARIS? • Paris Agreement encourages mitigation action relevant to national circumstances (as reflected in their NDCs) by all Parties • Comparability of the mitigation outcome of the mitigation action will be the starting point for any international transfer of the mitigation outcome Assessment of climate ambition: Assessment of mitigation action: Use of MAAP Climate Transparency initiative Domesti National c Country MOs Registry ITMOs International Clubs assessment and/or mitigation action system markets process NDC accounting
WHAT IS NETWORKING? Direct Linking System A System B A common market is explicitly established between Systems A and B (e.g. California-Quebec, EU-Switzerland) System B Indirect Linking System A System C Systems B,C, and D are indirectly linked via System A (e.g. Clean Development Mechanism) System D Networking System System A Designed to link heterogeneous climate actions B 6
WBG STRATEGY FOR CLIMATE MARKETS AND LINKAGE PROMOTING THE CASE AND EVIDENCE BASE FOR CARBON PRICING AND MARKETS e.g., Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition; State and Trends of Carbon Pricing reports CONNECTIVITY AND GLOBAL TRANSFER Enabling cooperation of all IMPLEMENTATION AND SCALE-UP types of climate actions, including carbon pricing mechanisms, through Enabling scale-up PLANNING, DESIGN AND PILOTS internationally connected of climate actions such as climate and carbon markets carbon pricing mechanisms Innovating and building readiness for climate action, The NCM Initiative including carbon pricing e.g., TCAF, PAF, Ci-DEV instruments e.g., PMR 7
NCM’S SHORT, MEDIUM AND LONG TERM VISION LONG TERM Comparability MEDIUM TERM and linkage of mitigation Comparability outcomes and transfer between of mitigation SHORT TERM countries on a outcomes: regional or Design and • within a country implementation of multilateral basis • between robust, “market - countries on a ready” mitigation bilateral basis actions 8 • Benchmarking • Guide climate finance
NCM’S CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK Establishment of an overarching, coordinated Independent Assessment Framework framework to measure the relative mitigation Within country: use of MAAP to assess mitigation actions outcomes (“mitigation value”) of different Between countries: use of CTi for national climate ambition actions Track cross-border trades (manage risk of International Settlement Platform double counting) and provide possible clearing house functions A pooled reserve of carbon assets to manage carbon market related risks (e.g., price International Carbon Asset Reserve volatility, invalidity of issued and allocated carbon units) 9

SCALING UP THE APPLICATION OF THE MAAP ONLINE INTERFACE Barcelona May 26, 2017
ACTIVITIES YTD 2 work streams: Internal – identify Bank supported projects and opportunities with Bank local offices - Ecuador, Mexico Independent Assessments. IGES, Perspectives, GS, UNEP DTU, Carbon Trust. MAAP Design and MAAP Implementation Assessor Guidelines Training and support to MAAP partners e.g. SECO, DTU-OLADE workshop Scouting activities for MAAP Policy alignment module. 16
CONCLUSSIONS MAAP ROUNDTABLE Benefit for having a reference point for the design of MA for NDCs Evaluate strategy of targeting multiple (too many?) different users. Partner with key stakeholders for those users to roll out online tool. Need for comprehensive set of capacity building activities to ensure online tool is used. MAAP in the context of the overall NCM long term strategy 17
SCALING UP MAAP Regional workshops with MA practitioners: Capacity building Populate online database Evaluate integration of UNDP SD Online Tool Strategy for external partnerships Adaptation Module Develop existing draft of MAAP Policy Alignment Module 18
