Approval process in the Czech Republic
1. Registration of the project by MoE – PIN (LoE)
2. Registration by State Environmental Fund (SEF) –
program 2.8 (assessment)
3. Discussion in working group of MoE (suggestion for
approval or refusal)
4. Ministerial approval (LoA)
Criteria
 Defined relatively generally
• Priority areas (renewables, energy savings, landfill gas projects,
non - CO2 gases, transport…)
• Non-priority areas also possible
• Assessment takes into account environmental, technical and
economic issues
• Case-by-case basis
• Link to → Methodical Guideline for JI Projects in the Czech Republic
http://www.env.cz/AIS/web-pub.nsf/$pid/MZPPZFEQYNJ6/$FILE/Methodical%20Guidelines_EN.doc
Track I eligibility criteria
 Track 1 - necessity of moving forward
 Criteria for Track 1:
 Reporting issues
http://unfccc.int/national_reports/initial_reports_under_the_kyoto_protocol/items/3765.php
• Initial Report was submitted to the UNFCCC
• GHG Inventory
• National Inventory Report
 National Registry System (International Transaction Log)
• ITL - testing operation are starting during spring 2007.
• Operator – Czech Electricity Market Operator, linking with EU ETS
registry
 Other things should not be a major problem
Domestic requirements for Track I
 Learning from problems in JI track 2
 Standardization to a maximum extent possible
 Validation and verification done by accredited local bodies
 Additionality issues? To be considered
 Simplification of procedures as much as possible
 Pooling of projects needed
 Potential for new JI projects?
Linking directive
 Opportunity for EU ETS developers (limit 10 % in the second NAP for
CERs and ERUs)
 Big problem for new member states of the EU - New JI potential
shortening
 Reserve 99 389 allowances per year in NAP2 for indirect linking (only
RES projects with LoA, No allowances for projects with LoE)
 Is there a room for JI in linked regime at all?
 New JI – only (biomass) heating and non – CO2 projects)
 Room for AAU crediting, International Emission Trading and Green
Investment Scheme - GIS)
Implementing GIS in the Czech Republic (I)
 MoU – Denmark, Austria, (Preparation -Japan, Netherlands, Finland, Portugal, Spain,
Slovenia... )
 Czech Republic in a relatively advantageous situation
•
Projected emissions are below Kyoto target (- 24%) = surplus AAUs for sale
•
Available cca 30 mil AAUs per year

Implementing GIS in the Czech Republic (II)
 Expected amount 50-150 million AAUs per commitment period
(estimation with the highest probability) – Uncertainty - allowances
surplus, national reserve issue ???
 What is the difference between Track I and IET (Article 17 trading in
the form of Green Investment Scheme – GIS)?
 Potential exists in various sectors (energy, transport, industry, …)
 Domestic resources limited – foreign funding welcomed
 Existing framework for funding – National programs
 Capacity of State Environmental Fund, Czech Energy Agency
GIS responsibilities
 Number of issues (responsibilities) to be clarified, but in general:
• MoE responsible for Climate Change and Kyoto flexible mechanisms
(Main coordinating role MoE – Department of Climate Change)
• Cooperation with other ministries (Industry of industry and Trade,
Foreign Affairs, Transport, Agriculture)
• Greening facility – transferring of money to individual projects on the
basis of pre-defined criteria (issue for working group)
• Greening facilities on the Czech side
•
– State Environmental Fund (SEF) – www.sfzp.cz
•
– Czech Energy Agency (CEA) – www.ceacr.cz
The process of establishing GIS
 1) signature of Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)
 2) establishing bilateral expert working group for GIS
 3) criteria for selection of projects (greening, scope of projects,…. )
• Approach for choosing projects (kind, size, sector,…….)
 4) preparation of ERPA(s)
 5) Pilot phase of GIS (testing)
 6) Work phase of GIS
• Funding programme with defined criteria established
• Applicants send applications – assessed against criteria
• List of approved projects – funding
Issues to solve
 State aid – need to be checked (depends on who is the
recipient of money)
 EU ETS – AAU trading not explicitly mentioned – could be a
problem in terms of „crossing“ of various ways of funding
 „Soft“ or „Hard“ greening?
 Resources available up front (payments)? When the concrete
projects need to be presented?
 Role of investor country in approval process?
 Validation and verification projects
