Broad Programme Context
The ACPC has three broad areas of activity:
1. Knowledge generation, sharing and
networking
2. Advocacy and consensus building
3. Advisory services and capacity
mobilisation
Technology Development and Transfer Network (TDTNet)
Broad Programme Context
Guided by “Development First” principle
– Providing insights on development and climate
change nexus, action oriented research, policy
and practice
• Programme Targets
– Transformative development of Africa
– Climate resilient socio-economy and ecosystems
– Low carbon pathways

Technological challenge of climate change
• To reach the goal of 2oC limit, energy-related CO2 emissions need to
peak globally by 2020 and then decline sharply in 203
• But based on government policies and measures enacted or adopted
by mid-2009 - in 2030 world primary energy demand will be 40%
higher than in 2007.
• 90% of this increase is expected to take place in non-OECD
countries
• In addition, 77% of the worldwide energy demand increase will be
based on using fossil fuels. At the same time, 1.3 billion people will
still lack access to electricity in 2030
• Within this context successful and reliable accelerated development
and transfer of environmentally sound mitigation technologies are
crucial and central
Technology Development and Transfer Network (TDTNet)
Technological challenge of climate change
• Estimated that the additional financing needs will be in range
of $262–670 billion per year, which is around three to four
times greater than the current global investment levels in
energy technologies (EGTT, 2009a).
• Of this amount, USD 100 - 400 billion annually is needed in
developing countries
– Africa - $13-26b/yr
• Mitigating GHG emissions is only one aspect of climate policy
• Equally important will be the need to reduce countries’
vulnerability to climate change impacts
– Africa - $11-21b/year
Technology Development and Transfer Network (TDTNet)
The global context of Technology
Transfer
• Technology transfer is considered to be a key element in
combating climate change under the UNFCCC.
• TT - Necessary for realization of global cooperation
• Important element in all multi-lateral environmental
agreements (MEAs)
• TT includes several phases of technology development,
deployment, dissemination, adoption and “domestication”
• TT is one of the pillars of the Bali Action Plan endorsed by
UNFCCC COP in 2007 and is now one of the negotiations
tracks for post Kyoto

Technology Development and Transfer Network (TDTNet)
Technology as part of climate policy making
“The developed countries and other developed countries in
Annex II shall take all practicable steps to promote, facilitate
and finance, as appropriate, the transfer of or access to
environmentally sound technologies and know how to other
Parties, particularly developing country Parties, to enable
them to implement the provisions of the Convention.”…
Article 4.5
“The extent to which developing country Parties will effectively
implement their commitments under the Convention will
depend on the effective implementation by developed
country Parties of their commitments related to financial
resources and transfer of technology…”
Article 4.7
Technology Development and Transfer Network (TDTNet)
Technology as part of climate policy making
The Parties reached a consensus at COP7:
• To adopt the framework for meaningful and
effective actions to enhance the implementation of
Art. 4.5 of the Convention.
• To establish an Expert Group on Technology
Transfer.
• To provide financial support to TT activities
through GEF climate change focal area and the
special climate change fund.
Technology Development and Transfer Network (TDTNet)
Technology Transfer Framework
• Five key themes and areas are:
–
–
–
–
–
Technology needs and needs assessments
Technology information
Enabling environments
Capacity Building
Mechanisms for technology transfer
Technology Development and Transfer Network (TDTNet)
Key principles & objectives of TNA
• To identify and prioritize, through country-driven
participatory processes, technologies that can contribute to
mitigation and adaptation goals of the participant countries,
while meeting their national sustainable development goals
and priorities (TNA).
• To identify barriers hindering the acquisition, deployment,
and diffusion of prioritized technologies.
• To develop Technology Action Plans (TAP) specifying
prioritized technologies, activities and enabling frameworks
to overcome the barriers and facilitate the transfer,
adoption, and diffusion of selected technologies in the
participant countries

TNAs summary
• The TNA is an effective tool for decision makers and
international institutions that may be involved in the
facilitation of the technology transfer process. The TNA
process not only helps identify specific technology needs, but
also points out the direction in which future policies and
regulations will need to progress
• The main beneficiary of the TNAs are the Parties that carried
them out, as these reports provide a good basis for follow-up
activities to further enhance the transfer of climate friendly
technologies.
Technology Development and Transfer Network (TDTNet)
Financing mechanisms
• New Bilateral (ODA, seed financing, PPP)
• Multilateral climate related funding initiatives (UNEP, UNDP,
World Bank Carbon Finance, EU COMMISSION )
• GEF (adaptation and mitigation)
• CDM/JI (mitigation and adaptation)
• Private sector (commercial bank, microfinancing)
