The NAMA Framework An evolving concept
On UNFCCC Agenda since negotiations in Bali 2007
Objective: Scale up mitigation actions
Several voluntary NAMA communications submitted to UNFCCC
following the Copenhagen Accord
see: FCCC/AWGLCA/2011/INF.1 for a summary
Cancún Agreements took note of NAMA pledges and decided on
- NAMA registry
- Green Climate Fund
- New market based mechanisms to be discussed at COP 17

The NAMA Framework Where do we stand?
Scope:
Broad array of NAMA ideas but few concrete approaches
Sources of Funds:
Domestic - International Support - Market Based
Green Climate Fund (Part? of USD 100 bn p.a. by 2020)
Rules and practical guidance:
Regulatory framework unclear, lack of guidance on NAMA design
Key question:
How to arrive quickly at practical experiences?

HOW TO DEVELOP A NAMA BY SCALING-UP ONGOING
PROGRAMMATIC CDM ACTIVITIES ON THE ROAD FROM POA TO NAMAS
Study of South Pole Carbon Asset Management

Introduction to the Study •Key Observation
•A NAMA includes design elements that are structurally similar to PoA
•Questions
•How can PoAs act as starting points to scale-up mitigation actions within a NAMA framework?
•Which PoA design elements are useful for NAMA design?
•What concrete suggestions can we provide to a NAMA designer who is tasked with the development of a NAMA using key building blocks of an existing PoA?
•Which recommendations can we provide going forward?

Bridging the Gap – PoA to NAMA Why PoA as starting point?
A PoA can grow into a NAMA
Bridge between project based approach and sector approach
Enhance NAMA readiness via PoA experience
Fast track pilot schemes possible
Short term solution to mobilize market based sources for NAMA funding

PoA Case Studies and their NAMA Scale Equivalent

Country PoA Scope NAMA Scope
Uganda Small Scale Hydro Power
Integrated payments of carbon credits and FiT for grid connected RE development
India Energy Efficiency in SME Steel Industry
Energy Efficiency in Energy Intensive SME Industries
Nepal Domestic Biogas Development
Low Carbon Rural Development
Tunisia Energy Efficient Roofs
Low Carbon Housing
Bridging the Gap – PoA to NAMA Similarities and differences
Similarities 1. Support and implementation of
low carbon development activities and strategies
2. Documented evidence of GHG reductions by use of MRV Systems
3. Implementation of broad based GHG Mitigation programmes
4. voluntary actions

Bridging the Gap – PoA to NAMA Similarities and differences
10/14/2011 CTI Berlin 15 10 11 12
Emission reductions account for NAMA country targets Exception for market based NAMA to be decided
Emission Reductions used for Annex-I- country Kyoto compliance
Broad, sectoral approaches beyond CDM possible
Defined by PDD and CDM methodology
Market mechanisms only an option Financed through market mechanisms
Baseline and MRV system not yet defined Baseline and Monitoring via CDM methodology
Coordination most likely by government body
Coordination via private or public sector
NAMA PoA
Differences
Further „technical“ differences
10/14/2011 CTI Berlin 15 10 11 13
Criteria NAMA PoA
Environmental Integrity
Managed on the sector-level
Managed on the activity level
MRV For all GHG sources that meet eligibility criteria
Participating GHG sources only
Incentives Carrots (different flavors) and sticks
Carrots only (one type only (CER))
Baseline setting
Political: “appropriate”
Pseudo-technical: “additional”
Bridging the Gap – PoA to NAMA
Preparatory steps for PoA upscaling Step 1: Identify and analyze potential PoAs
Step 2: Test suitability of PoA design for upscaling potential
Step 3: Test compatibility with institutional framework
Step 4: NAMA design based on steps 1 -3

Conclusions
NAMA concept still very broad with lack of regulatory guidance and experience
POA can be a fast start, bottom up approach to design NAMAs
To mobilize private sector funding we need clear rules
NAMA MRV can build on CDM MRV but should be simplified! (e.g. standardized baselines, benchmarks, positive lists)
We need pilot projects to gather experience for NAMA rules and guidance
