Existing funds of $2b for period up to 2012 largely committed
CPF pledges of $200m will open first tranche for operation

FY08 Approvals of $2.7b for renewables and energy efficiency, including GEF, IFC,
MIGA, IBRD, and IDA
Target of $3.3 billion for FY’09 to EE and RE
How to utilize the above for HCFC phase-out and maximize the impact of
the limited resources available?

HOW TO WEAVE TOGETHER THE FOUR
SOURCES OF MITIGATION FUNDING?

Each must be used in a manner consistent with its
objectives and approaches





GEF: Focus on barrier removal—source of grant funding
to establish conditions for market sustainability
CTF: Focus on investment support—providing investment
support in form of loans, grants or guarantees
CPF: Performance reward to provide extra revenue to
scale-up carbon-reducing investments
MLF: Identify applications of strategic importance to
phase-out and find intersection with above
May be linked simultaneously in same project
structure or sequentially through a consistent
programmatic approach


Objectives are not identical, but overlap can be found



Instruments are compatible with each other—can be used
sequentially or simultaneously



Requires foresight, strategic thinking
Building upon HCFC phaseout for greater EE & GHG reductions
Some complexities do exist





To reduce growth in GHG emissions linked to HCFCs
Condition markets; scale-up markets; enhance revenues
Issues of eligibility
Focus on larger countries
Changing strategy and focus
Sunset clause
Although programmatic approaches can be tailored to all four
instruments, need to focus on problem at hand
INNOVATIVE FINANCIAL ENGINEERING – INTERNATIONAL
FINANCE FACILITY FOR IMMUNISATION (IFFIM)




IFFIm was launched in 2006 thanks to the initiative of the United
Kingdom Government. IFFIm is also supported by France, Italy,
Spain, Sweden, Norway and South Africa who have together
pledged to contribute US$ 5.3 billion to IFFIm over 20 years.
This strong financial base enables IFFIm to have a triple-A rating
from the three major rating agencies.
IFFIm raises finance by issuing bonds in the capital markets and
so converts the long-term government pledges into immediately
available cash resources.
The long-term government pledges will be used to repay the
IFFIm bonds. The World Bank acts as financial adviser and
treasury manager to IFFIm.

Opportunities do exist to utilize multiple sources of
funding in projects that will replace HCFC with the most
optimum ozone and climate friendly technologies
Innovative financial engineering model to monetize
future commitments to support up-front investment exists
and could be applied to future commitments (MLF
contributions) and future revenues (CERs)
Strategic thinking is necessary to piece together puzzle
and maximize global benefits
As much as strategy, patience may be even more
necessary
Cooperation and synergies are necessary to leverage
large impacts and benefits
