23 23 Green Bond Communication Raising Awareness California, SEB and World Bank in the Media This is a landmark investment our first in global climate change solutions. Buying these green bonds makes financial sense for California. It strengthens our portfolio s diversity while adding a sound investment with a triple-a rated issuer. And it tells the world that when it comes to battling climate change, California is prepared to contribute not just its policies, but its money, too. California State Treasurer, Bill Lockyer (April 2009)
24 Next Steps and Challenges Continue to raise awareness of the need for and support from private sector financing to tackle the climate challenge to improve incentives Continue to work with investors and intermediaries to create financial products that support climate change programs and transparency around them to meet investor demand, and encourage complimentary products (e.g. green indices, funds, securitization) Continue to work with World Bank colleagues to further develop the internal infrastructure/capacity for more impact reporting and to create and deliver new investment products 24
25 Annex B Green Project Stories 25
26 CHINA Eco-Farming Project In China, millions of households rely on the agriculture sector for their livelihood and their future depends on improved management of their natural resources. The agricultural sector, however, has had widespread negative impacts on the environment because of inadequate farming techniques involving intensive and mechanized farming, misuse of land leading to desertification, over-use of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, and the rapid growth in livestock production without adequate environmental controls. In addition, agriculture is responsible for 50% of China s methane emissions methane is a potent greenhouse gas. This project will improve the rural environment and living conditions in the project areas by promoting environmentally friendly and economically efficient farm production. In addition to cleaner, healthier farmyard environments, a key goal of the project is the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions through methane capture and combustion to generate energy and reduced burning of coal and firewood in the project areas. By the end of the project, CO2eq emissions in the project area are expected to be reduced by 800,000-1,000,000 tons per year. Project Summary Purpose Timeframe IBRD Financing Mitigation To reduce greenhouse gas emissions and deliver economic benefits through biogas systems in rural communities US$120 million Renewable energy (biogas), and reduced methane emissions and carbon dioxide from burning of coal and firewood Photo: Steve Harris/ World Bank For more information: Video:
27 MONTENEGRO Energy Efficiency in Public Buildings Montenegro currently must import about one-third of its power to feed its fast growing electricity demands and to make up for diminishing electricity production from the run-down plants and assets of the state-owned electricity company. In addition, a legacy of highly inefficient buildings and other facilities contribute to the drain on energy supplies in Montenegro. The World Bank funded Energy Efficiency Project is financing energy efficiency investments in the public sector, reducing energy consumption and improving environmental quality in public schools and health centers and promoting new energy efficiency and supply technologies in targeted public buildings across the country. Seven schools and four hospitals have been or will be retrofitted by the end of the project. This project is designed to be a model for energy efficiency activities in the rest of the country s public sector and private companies, ultimately having a much broader impact in reducing Montenegro s national greenhouse gas emissions. Project Summary Purpose Timeframe IBRD Financing Mitigation Improve energy efficiency in buildings used for health and education services US$9.4 million Energy efficiency in building Photo: Gennadiy Ratushenko / World Bank For more Information: 27
28 TUNISIA Second Water Sector Investment The project promotes efficiency improvements in irrigation schemes, more reliable water supply in rural areas and increased capacity to plan for current and future water management challenges, including climate change. Compared to other states in North Africa and the Middle East and in spite of severe scarcity and stress in its aquifers, Tunisia has been able to capture and use more than 80% of the usable water thanks to infrastructure investments and good management policies. Climate change will exacerbate the problems of scarcity and reliance on alreadystressed groundwater. The project promotes more efficient use of irrigation water and drinking water supply. By the end of the project about 25,000 hectares with irrigation and drainage systems are targeted to be rehabilitated and 10,000 households supplied with new drinking water service, among other outcomes. The project will also strengthen Tunisia's capacity to plan, monitor, and manage water in the future. Project Summary Purpose Timeframe IBRD Financing Adaptation To promote better water management US$30.6 million Improved efficiency in water use and increased capacity for watershed management Photo: Curt Carnemark/World Bank For more Information:
29 MOROCCO Solid Waste Development Policy Loan This program supported the government's reform program to enhance the governance of the solid waste sector through regulatory and institutional measures designed to establish a clear framework, eliminating overlap and/or gaps in the policymaking, regulatory, and operational structure; and improving the financial, environmental, and social sustainability of solid waste programs. The program includes the preparation of a programmatic Clean Development Mechanism Solid Waste activity which provides incentives for up to 11 municipalities to invest in landfill gas (methane) capture and utilization and to use carbon revenues to fund other managed landfills. Project Summary Purpose Timeframe IBRD Financing Mitigation To enhance the governance of the solid waste sector US$132.7 million Methane capture and related generation of renewable energy from solid waste Photo: Curt Carnemark/World Bank For more Information: 29
30 INDONESIA Geothermal Energy The project helps Indonesia increase power generation from renewable geothermal resources and reduce emissions of carbon dioxide that would otherwise be generated from its primarily fossil fuels-based power generation system. The project finances the confirmation of the geothermal resources and construction of a steam field system and 2 powers plants with a total capacity of 150 MW. The project is co-financed by the Clean Technology Fund and is expected to have transformational impact by reviving the development of geothermal energy, demonstrate an immediate potential for scale-up in geothermal projects, and help increase the confidence of other potential developers in the sector. In addition, the proposed fields are located on islands where there are currently considerable power supply shortages The project avoids the expansion of coal-fired power which is the predominant source of energy in Indonesia. The 150MW plant is estimated to avoid 1.1 million tons of CO2 per year or a lifetime emissions of 33 million tons of CO2 over 30 years. Project Summary Purpose Timeframe IBRD Financing Mitigation To increase power generation from renewable geothermal resources. US$150 million Renewable energy Photo: Curt Carnemark/World Bank For more Information: 30
31 MEXICO Integrated Energy Services The objective is to increase electricity access in the poorest southern states of Mexico targeting small communities in the range of 50 to 500 households. The project supports use of renewable energy, mainly photovoltaic (solar) systems and some wind generators together with the regulatory and technical support needed to develop a sustainable market for provision of energy services in remote rural areas. The goal of the project is to electrify over 47,000 rural households with renewable energy technology. Estimated carbon emission reductions from facilities installed by the project are about 250,000 tons of C0 2 eq per year over a 20 year lifetime of the systems. The long-term national impact of this project is expected to be larger due to replication effects throughout rural areas. Project Summary Purpose Timeframe IBRD Financing Mitigation To increase country s energy access using renewable energy US$15 million Renewable energy in rural areas Photo: Curt Carnemark/World Bank For more Information: 31
32 COLOMBIA Integrated Mass Transit System 75% of Colombia's population currently lives in cities and most of these urban residents rely entirely on the public transportation system. Yet, public transportation is the cause of many of these cities' problems, including serious traffic congestion, high incidences of accidents and crime, unhealthy air, and pollutants responsible for 62% of Colombia's carbon emissions. In 1998, the Colombian government began modernizing its transit system by developing a rapid bus system called Transmilenio in Bogota. Funded by the World Bank through the Bogota Urban Transport Project, the Transmilenio soon became an internationally recognized model for efficiency, improved speed, safety, and reduced urban traffic. The Colombian government and the World Bank are continuing to work together through the World Bank-funded Integrated Mass Transit Systems Second Additional Financing Project. It is designed replicated the success of Transmilenio, improve transport efficiency and accessibility, reduce fuel use per kilometer, as well as pollutant emissions. Old buses are being retired and replaced with new fuel efficient ones. The government continues to see this new transit system as an important contributor to climate change mitigation and is analyzing how further improvements to urban transport systems can contribute to reducing Colombia's carbon footprint. The Transmilenio program has been registered under the Clean Development Mechanism to deliver carbon credits. It is projected to result in reductions of 246,560 metric tons of CO2eq emissions per year. Project Summary Purpose Timeframe IBRD Financing Mitigation To reduce carbon emissions and transform public transportation efficiency US$300 million Lower carbon urban transport Photo: World Bank For more information: Video: 32
