Energy Low Emission Development Strategies: A Regional Overview of Latin Am...Worldwatch Institute
Overall, Latin America and the Caribbean has traditionally been a world leader in the use of renewable energy sources for power generation (mainly hydro power), with important sub-regional differences, but the use of fossil fuels grew rapidly in the late 1900s.
There have been many initiatives on renewables and energy efficiency on the part of governments and local organizations, supported by multilateral development banks, UN organizations, international NGOs.
The recent development of non-traditional renewable energies (wind, solar, geothermal, modern biomass) is helping meet important development goals (growth, access, affordability) with a lower impact on greenhouse gas emissions.
There are still important challenges related to investment climate and business model financing, but there are many lessons to share, both on what works and what doesn´t work.
The document discusses recent positive developments for renewable energy in June, including major financial commitments from investors, foundations, and governments. Bill Gates and Softbank committed billions more for clean technology investments. A growing number of large investment firms plan to invest in solar projects due to confidence in returns and a desire to support clean energy. China committed to reduce emissions and increase non-fossil fuel energy use, joining new commitments from other nations ahead of climate talks. Rapidly improving economics and technology are driving momentum for renewables as costs drop and targets increase around the world.

Oman aims to maintain its oil production levels of around 950,000 barrels per day for the next 2-3 years through improved and enhanced oil recovery techniques. The Oman oil minister also expressed support for ending fuel subsidies, which are currently unsustainable, while acknowledging this is a politically sensitive issue. Abu Dhabi has received strong interest from international firms to participate in its largest oilfields under revised terms as it takes full control, and may partner with major Asian energy buyers in addition to continuing with Western oil companies.
Investment confidence in Australia’s renewable energy sector has significantly improved following the legislation of the revised Large-scale Renewable Energy Target (LRET) in mid-
2015, a new Prime Minister that is more supportive of renewable energy and a strong outcome at the Paris climate change conference. The level and pace of investment will need to increase substantially in 2016 and 2017 in order
for liable parties to deliver on the 2020 legislated target and obligation. The Clean Energy
Regulator estimates that for this to happen, around 3000 MW of new renewable capacity should
be committed in 2016.
This paper outlines the status of progress towards delivering on the 2020 target of 33,000 GWh
of new large-scale renewable energy generation. While there will be challenges, this paper finds
that there is reason to be optimistic that the required new investment will be delivered within the
required timeframe.
Victoria, while rich in renewable energy resources and strong industry capabilities in ICT, its dependence on brown coal as an energy source has meant it has struggled in demonstrating leadership in the emerging or so called "new energy" sector. This sector strategy published in 2016, suggests that the state's appetite for change has moved in the right direction, with some of the plans e.g. setting renewable energy generation targets, already being committed to publicly. This will greatly help in bringing further investment in new energy into the state.
New energy technologies are a small but growing part of Victoria’s economy. New energy technologies include forms of renewable energy, innovations that make the state's energy system more efficient, and the products and services that increase consumers’ control over their energy needs. The new energy technologies sector
creates jobs to deliver these outcomes to the state.
New energy technologies offer potential for substantial employment growth across the state because of competitive advantages in the sector. Victoria enjoys significant advantages in areas such as information and communications technology (ICT), advanced manufacturing, and material engineering. It also has abundant world-class renewable energy resources, smart meter infrastructure, and research and technological
capabilities, so it is well-placed to capitalise on sector growth.

IPCC report findings on climate change mitigation in agriculture
A dialog among scientists, practitioners and financiers
April 16, 2014
World Bank, Washington, DC
Following the April 13th release of the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report on Mitigation, including Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Uses (AFOLU), this event will provided an opportunity to listen to IPCC authors summarize their findings and for all participants to join in a dialog with practitioners and financiers to discuss actionable steps for mitigation in the agricultural sector.
The event was a joint effort of the World Bank, the Global Research Alliance on Agricultural Greenhouse Gases, and the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS).
The document summarizes the 2022 World Energy Issues Monitor report published by the World Energy Council. It provides an overview of the report, which surveys nearly 2,200 energy leaders across 91 countries on their perspectives of critical issues affecting the global energy transition. The key issues assessed are grouped into 5 categories: global trends and macroeconomics, environment, energy technologies, policy and business, and social dynamics. The report visualizes the issues on impact-uncertainty maps to identify "Critical Uncertainties" and "Action Priorities" to inform energy discussions and decision-making.
Increasing the storage of carbon in the soil has been a controversial strategy for addressing climate change mitigation. What is the potential and why is there debate about this? How can we push beyond the debate to constructive action?
Lini Wollenberg, a Gund Fellow, is an anthropologist and natural resource management specialist concerned with rural livelihoods and the environment. She currently leads a research program on Low Emissions Agricultural Development for the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS), based at the University of Vermont. Her work seeks to identify options for reducing the impacts of agricultural development and land use on the climate, while also improving livelihoods for the poor in developing countries.
This presentation was given by Lini Wollenberg, CCAFS, on September 11, 2020 as part of the GundxChange Series.
This document provides an overview of carbon credits and the carbon markets ecosystem. It discusses that carbon markets can help enhance climate action by targeting lowest-cost emissions reductions. Carbon credits financially incentivize emission reduction activities and address mismatches in resources and timing needed to reach net-zero goals. The document outlines key elements of high-integrity carbon credits, including additionality, permanence, quantification, and sustainable development benefits. It also notes risks to companies from improper use of offsets and calls for understanding both potential and limitations of this tool to support increased integrity in voluntary carbon markets.
The UN compendium contains 50 climate projects selected by the UN Regional Commissions from over 450 projects identified. The projects vary in themes, size, location, and level of development. They are categorized based on their climate theme and impact type. The compendium aims to facilitate information sharing and engagement between public and private partners to advance climate action.

By Mimi Alemayehou, Katie Auth, Murefu Barasa, Morgan Bazilian, Brad Handler, Uzo Iweala, Todd Moss, Rose Mutiso, Zainab Usman
Advancing inclusive and equitable energy transitions is one of this century’s most vital global challenges, and one in which development finance will play a crucial role. References to justice and equity are widespread in international climate policy, and are increasingly being used by development organizations to guide their own work, including support for energy transitions.
But prevailing definitions of climate justice rarely fully capture the priorities, challenges and perspectives of low-emitting energy-poor countries, the vast majority of which are in sub-Saharan Africa. When applied to development policy, this gap risks prioritizing near-term emissions reductions over broader support for economic development and energy transformation, with comparatively little climate benefit. This could severely hinder poverty alleviation, development, and climate resilience — the very opposite of justice. We need energy transitions that are truly ‘just and inclusive.’ What does this mean for development funders and financiers, and how should it drive their approach to supporting energy transitions in the lowest-income countries?
The aim of this primer is to putforth a perspective on - how does sustainability matters in real estate sector and why it should be a prime agenda of firms in making environmental friendly decision making and operations. Real estate sector can showcase their stewardship towards environment via efficient environmental friendly policies. There are varied environmental standards which are applied at the builings or infrastructure level in real estate sector, however what it lacks is uniformity in sustainability applicability to the sector. The type of material used, the design per se, installations and retrofits all matter in real esate sustainability mission and vision. Understanding environmental and climate risks and its real implications is a intricate challenge for property investors.
Canada's Oil & Gas Sector Innovation Stakeholder Landscape (2022)Shannon Wilson
This document provides an overview of a project to update the 2017 stakeholder landscape map of Canada's oil and gas sector innovation ecosystem. It outlines the project objectives, scope, timeframe, and context. It then presents the updated 2022 stakeholder landscape map and highlights some key trends in the landscape since 2017, including increased government focus on climate change, growth of cleantech organizations, and emphasis on the green transition. The document aims to capture the current innovation ecosystem to support CRIN in advocacy and stakeholder collaboration.
IDRC has been a trailblazer in climate change adaptation research, supporting over $190 million in projects since 2006. Their current initiatives include four large research consortia totaling $70 million focused on adaptation in Africa and Asia. One example project used ICT to share climate and market data with over 120,000 farmers in Uganda, reducing crop losses by up to 67%. IDRC is also funding a $546,800 project in Angola assessing the impacts of climate variability on water resources and infrastructure in four coastal cities and developing governance recommendations.
More than one-quarter of the world’s population lacks access to clean electricity, while about 2.7 billion people
are forced to spend disproportionate amounts of their time and resources on traditional biomass for cooking and
heating. Where modern energy services are unavailable, people resort to expensive and unsustainable alternatives,
which can exacerbate energy insecurity and leave communities more vulnerable to the effects of climate change.
Increasing access to clean, reliable and affordable energy would reduce poverty and accelerate progress toward
the Millennium Development Goals. Providing reliable and efficient clean energy to the rural and urban poor can
significantly reduce CO 2 emissions, boost productive and income-generating activities and reduce household
expenditures for costly and non-environmentally friendly fuels such as kerosene and diesel. Thanks to recent technological developments, efforts to expand access to clean energy now depend less on technology and more on
financing arrangements, backed by a policy environment that is focused on serving the poor.
The Sustainable Energy for All initiative, recently launched by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, draws global
attention to the importance of energy for sustainable development and poverty alleviation, and calls for specific
commitments from the private sector and national governments. The goal is to meet three objectives by 2030:
ensuring universal access to modern energy services; doubling the rate of improvement in energy efficiency; and
doubling the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix.
In response, the UN Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) is partnering with the United Nations Development
Programme (UN DP) on CleanStart, a programme to help poor households and micro-entrepreneurs access financing
from microfinance institutions for low-cost clean energy. Microfinance institutions, which by definition target
low-income clients, are well placed to provide the products and services micro-entrepreneurs need to pursue clean
energy opportunities.
CleanStart promotes appropriate financing arrangements, supports quality assurance measures for end users, and
addresses key gaps in energy value chains to contribute to a mutually beneficial cycle of investment and building
awareness, as well as create a new market segment with higher returns for participating institutions. CleanStart
aims to help lift at least 2.5 million people out of energy poverty by 2017 and to establish a viable concept for a
much wider uptake.
This publication shares the experience of UNC DF and UN DP in designing the CleanStart approach, one of the latest
endeavours of our respective work in Financial Inclusion and Energy Access for All. It is hoped that by jointly
leveraging our respective strengths and combining resources, we can help make the goal of universal access to modern energy services for all a reality.

A New Era of Renewables in Latin America?Doris Capurro
The document summarizes renewable energy developments in Latin America. It discusses how government-led auctions have driven significant growth in renewables by awarding long-term contracts. Countries like Brazil, Chile, and Mexico have seen their non-hydro renewable capacity and generation increase rapidly due to these policies. The document also analyzes Argentina's renewable energy targets and the new RenovAr program, which aims to contract 1GW of new renewables capacity by 2017 through competitive auctions. However, challenges remain around whether the auctions will attract sufficient investment to meet Argentina's future targets.
Will the Vaca Muerta be a game changer?Doris Capurro
This document discusses the potential of Argentina's Vaca Muerta shale formation to become a major producer of oil and natural gas. It presents three scenarios for production growth from Vaca Muerta between now and 2040 based on different assumptions about investment levels and economic conditions. Under the base case scenario, Vaca Muerta could add 560 thousand barrels per day of oil and 6 billion cubic feet per day of natural gas by 2040, recovering over 2800 million barrels of oil and 33 trillion cubic feet of gas. For this level of production to be achieved would require annual investments of around $8 billion and sustained foreign investment. Production growth from Vaca Muerta would not be immediate and would depend on maintaining stable economic policies to encourage investment
The document provides an overview and context for discussions around current uncertainties in global energy markets. It notes three ongoing transitions: from an era of strong emerging market growth and high oil prices to an oversupplied oil market with weak prices; China's economic transition; and the global transition to lower-carbon energy driven by climate agreements. Key questions are discussed around the timing of oil price recovery, the future of US shale oil production, changes to OPEC and global oil supply/demand balances, and the potential impacts of climate policies on energy mix. Charts show historical oil price cycles, growth in US production, declines in upstream investment, and outlooks for non-OPEC and OPEC supply.
