Presentations & Public Speaking

Breakout Group 2:
Indicative climate finance
information session
INTRODUCTION BY GARD LINDSETH, NORWEGIAN MINISTRY OF
CLIMATE AND ENVIRONMENT

Mandate/Background
• Article 9, paragraph 5, of the Paris Agreement:
Developed countries (shall) and other parties (are encouraged to) biennially communicate indicative
quantitative and qualitative climate finance information
Information to be provided "as applicable" and "as available"
• Part of the Paris Agreement Work Programme: Mandate given to the COP is to
identify the information provided by parties, in accordance with decision
1/CP.21 paragraph 55 by COP 24
• Building on experience: Developed countries' submissions on updated
strategies and approaches for scaling up climate finance up to 2020.

Article 9.5. in the negotiations
• Handled by the COP, but with an in-session workshop in 2017
Scope discussed under APA
• One of the most difficult issues at COP 23
• SBI to also discuss the agenda at the intersessional in Bonn in
April/May
• Informal note by the Co-chairs under COP agenda item 10f

Potential types of information,
challenges and gaps
• Build on information under the existing arrangements that has been identified
as useful
• Co-chairs informal note has identified a list of potential types of information:
Enhanced information to increase clarity on expected levels of climate finance
Enhanced information on policies, programmes and priorities
Enhanced information on actions and plans to mobilize additional finance from a range of sources
Enhanced information on balance between mitigation and adaptation
Enhanced information on enhancement of enabling environments
• Better understanding of challenges and gaps

Discussion questions:
1. What are the key challenges with quantitative reporting of forward-looking
climate-related finance? How might they start to be addressed?
2. What sort of qualitative information on forward-looking climate-related
finance could help provide greater certainty for partner countries regarding
expected future financial inflows?

This document outlines challenges and suggestions for developing accounting guidance for mitigation targets in nationally determined contributions (NDCs). It discusses the meaning of "accounting" for NDCs, challenges such as different target types across parties and land-related issues, and suggestions like drawing from existing approaches under the UNFWP Convention and Kyoto Protocol, allowing parties flexibility in methodologies, and identifying remaining issues to resolve.

OECD Environment

This document discusses accounting principles and guidance for tracking progress towards Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. It outlines key principles such as promoting transparency, accuracy and avoiding double counting. It also examines how accounting guidance could clarify and implement these principles for different types of NDCs. Examples given include guidance to avoid double counting of emissions reductions from harvested wood products and clarifying how countries can account for natural disturbances. The document also discusses drawing from existing approaches under the UNFCCC and Kyoto Protocol, and introducing an "accounting balance" to clearly track progress towards NDCs.

5.2 FOURTH ENVIRONET-WP-STAT JOINT TASK TEAM MEETING

Development Co-operation Directorate (DCD-DAC)

The document discusses the methodology used by multilateral development banks (MDBs) to jointly track climate finance commitments and reporting. It covers: 1) How MDBs created a methodology in 2011 to encourage scaling up of climate finance globally and commit to transparency in tracking and reporting. They have collectively financed around $25 billion annually or $75 billion total between 2011-2013. 2) The methodology tracks climate adaptation and mitigation finance to developing countries irrespective of greenhouse gas accounting. It reports financial flows disaggregated by various categories. 3) Plans for 2015 include publishing a 2014 joint report on climate finance, agreeing on definitions for tracking finance leverage, and continuing cooperation with other organizations on transparency and principles for tracking

OECD Environment

Breakout Group E discussed capacity needs for transparency in national communications and biennial update reports from non-Annex I parties. They noted that while 149 countries submitted their first national communication, just 126 submitted the second and only 39 have submitted the third. Fewer than 10 countries have submitted the fourth or fifth national communications. They also discussed actions to improve transparency, including strengthening national measurement, reporting and verification systems through proper political will and identifying domestic benefits. Other suggestions were increasing regional collaboration through South-South networks and better coordination among donors to avoid duplication.

OECD Environment

The document discusses communicating mitigation contributions and developing guidance on information for communicating transparency and understanding (CTU). It notes the challenge of balancing specificity with flexibility to update contributions over time. Options were discussed for managing this, such as supplementary annexes. Experience with communicating intended nationally determined contributions (INDCs) was also helpful for development, though some elements of guidance could be improved for the post-Paris context. Developing CTU guidance should maintain consistency across guidance types while information categories evolve over time. CTU will need information on NDC features, and timing of applying different guidance needs detailed discussion.

Accounting for NDCs under the Paris Agreement, Qi Yue CCXG GF September 2016

OECD Environment

This document summarizes key points about accounting for nationally determined contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement. It notes that accounting guidance is to be developed by the Conference of the Parties serving as the meeting of the Parties to the Paris Agreement by its first session to promote transparency and ensure avoidance of double counting. NDCs can include information on emission levels using IPCC guidelines, as well as other data on GDP, population and use of market-based credits. Preliminary thoughts are that accounting should be done after the target year but information reported with NDCs and progress, and that methodologies could have both common and nationally determined parts.

OECD Environment

The document discusses information needs to assess progress towards the global goal on adaptation to climate change. It notes that the global adaptation goal still needs to be operationalized and clarified. Information will be needed at different levels but some, such as gender and mainstreaming data, will be difficult to collect and compare. Existing UNFCCC reporting vehicles are indispensable but need enhancement in content and periodicity. A minimum set of information to be reported should be defined. Assessing collective progress will require linking to other reporting frameworks and using existing third party information from regional, scientific, and issue-specific organizations. Determining effectiveness and adequacy of adaptation efforts also poses a challenge.

OECD Environment

This document discusses accounting within the context of the national determined contribution (NDC) cycle. It outlines the key components of tracking progress under an NDC, including describing the NDC, summarizing progress made toward the target, and explaining the accounting approaches and methodologies used. It notes that tracking involves setting reference values for indicators used to measure progress, reporting interim progress during the implementation period using recent indicator values, and reporting the final outcome values after the period.

Enhancing transparency lessons learned from capacity development, Rebecca Carman

OECD Environment

This document summarizes lessons learned from a capacity development program to support climate change mitigation and transparency efforts in 38 countries. Key lessons include: (1) assigning climate relevance to financial flows and obtaining private sector data is challenging; (2) data availability and quality for transparency remains a fundamental issue; and (3) country-driven approaches that build on existing systems through engagement over time are most effective. The program delivered various outputs to support NDCs and transparency, but further targeted technical support is now needed for implementation.

Development Co-operation Directorate (DCD-DAC)

This document discusses a guidance table created by KfW Development Bank to help assign climate change Rio Markers to development projects. The guidance table provides examples of project types in various sectors and recommends Rio Marker scores for climate change mitigation and adaptation. It aims to standardize the assignment of Rio Markers and complement existing guidelines. The table is intended as an orientation tool for project developers, and is not officially binding. It is used by KfW and BMZ to advise on and quality check Rio Marker assignments. Benefits include improved consistency in scoring, less need for advice, faster quality control, and increased understanding of how projects can qualify for climate change financing.

OECD Environment

This document discusses key steps in preparing and reporting national greenhouse gas (GHG) inventories. It outlines the two-phase inventory process: 1) preparing the inventory by collecting activity data and estimating emissions using tools, and 2) reporting the inventory using specific formats. For Annex I parties, common reporting formats (CRFs) generated by the CRF Reporter are used. The Enhanced Transparency Framework will introduce common reporting tables (CRTs) modeled on CRFs but requiring more detailed data from developing countries. While CRFs provide a technical starting point, transitioning to CRTs may pose new challenges for developing countries requiring institutional and IT resources.

The document discusses how the 2018 Facilitative Dialogue (FD2018) could help inform parties' preparation of updated NDCs and support progress toward the Paris Agreement's Article 4.1 objectives. It suggests the FD2018 could provide a collective assessment of NDCs' aggregate effects, adaptation components, and ambition levels. It also discusses how the FD2018 could encourage further climate action and support for developing countries through both political and technical dialogues. The document outlines potential inputs, such as IPCC and UNFCCC reports, and expected outputs focused on increasing pre-2020 climate ambition and informing the 2020 round of updated NDCs.

Legally Binding Outcome Copenhagen_Briefing _16 Nov09

IndyACT

1) The document discusses the key elements needed for a comprehensive, legally binding outcome from the Copenhagen climate change conference (COP15). This includes resolving substantive issues like mitigation commitments and financing, agreeing on what each party is legally obligated to do, and deciding on the legal framework. 2) The outcome must be captured in a legal text or instrument, rather than just separate COP decisions. It should not allow reopening of negotiations and must build on the Kyoto Protocol. 3) Industrialized countries must commit to ambitious emission reductions and a second commitment period under the Kyoto Protocol. They must also provide sufficient long-term financing to developing countries for mitigation and adaptation.

ADP Background

Climate Action Network South Asia

The ADP was established at COP17 in Durban to develop a new international climate agreement by 2015 that is applicable to all parties. It has two work streams - WS1 focuses on developing the new agreement for post-2020 and WS2 aims to enhance pre-2020 ambition. The ADP aims to complete its work by 2015 and have the new agreement come into effect in 2020. It held informal discussions from 2012-2013 to bring parties to a common understanding. The goals of the ADP co-chairs are to make progress on the 2015 agreement content, initiate discussions on nationally-determined contributions, and raise pre-2020 ambition.

UNDP Eurasia

Climate Change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. Through conferences in Copenhagen, Cancun, and Bangkok, progress has been made towards reaching a global agreement to reduce emissions and mitigate climate change. Copenhagen established political commitments to reduce emissions but no binding agreement. Cancun resulted in a historic set of decisions establishing frameworks for mitigation, adaptation, finance, and technology transfer. Upcoming talks in Durban aim to resolve key issues under the Kyoto Protocol and deliver on the Cancun Agreements to ensure institutions are in place by 2012.

This document discusses issues and options for reporting greenhouse gas inventories and tracking progress towards nationally determined contributions under the Paris Agreement. It notes that the recently adopted modalities, procedures and guidelines represent a significant step towards transparency but that further work is needed to develop common reporting tables. Key issues addressed include how countries can report on flexibility used in inventories, avoiding "false zeros," improving the match to guidelines categories, and the machine-readable format. For tracking progress, it notes the diversity of NDCs poses challenges and discusses how to address different target types and timeframes in a consistent yet country-specific manner. The document concludes the new guidelines are an opportunity for parties to better understand reporting requirements and ensure improvement over time.

OECD Environment

Water is critical for meeting commitments of the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Our economies rely on water, with recent estimates putting the economic value of water and freshwater ecosystems at USD 58 trillion - equivalent to 60% of global GDP. At the same time, water related risks are increasing in frequency and scale in the context of climate change. How are investments shaping our economies and societies exposure to water risk? What role can the financial system play in supporting water security? And how can increased understanding of how finance both impacts and depends on water resources spur action towards greater water security? This OECD Green Talks LIVE on Tuesday 14 May 2024 from 15:00 to 16:00 CEST discussed the evolving landscape for assessing water risks to the financial system. OECD Policy Analyst Lylah Davies presented key findings and recommendations from recent OECD work on assessing the financial materiality of water-related risks, including the recently published paper “Watered down? Investigating the financial materiality of water-related risks” and was joined by experts to discuss relevant initiatives underway.
