Barriers risks?Barriers risks?
“Financial risk management is a key element of any commercial investment in conventional energy …, yet little attention has been
paid to its use in the development of renewable energy technologies, particularly in developing countries, … if used
transfer certain types of risks away from investors and lender.”
Monique BarbutDirector
Division of Technology, Industry and EconomicsUNEP

“The financial incentive package for each country is carefully crafted to suit its economic, legal, and fiscal system. The types of
incentives used include concessional import duties, excise tax benefits, corporate and income tax benefits (including tax
exemptions, holidays, credits, and deduction as well as depreciation), subsidies against investment cost, low interest
loans, and premium power purchase prices.”
World Bank Discussion Paper No. 391

IntroductionIntroduction
• Climate change the most profound environmental
Treats to human future (drought, rain, flood, deceases,
low crops, disasters).
• Reducing emissions of CO2 and GHGs is a key challenge.
• The Kyoto Protocol and ETS provide an opportunity for
OECD countries to reduce GHG and help developing
countries invest in environmentally friendly
technologies.
33
The Kyoto ProtocolThe Kyoto Protocol
• UNFCCC adopted in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in 1992
• Adoption took place at COP convention, held at Kyoto, Japan December 11, 1997
• Enter into force since… forcing Annex 1 countries to reduce emissions to a total cut of at least 5% from 1990 levels in the commitment period 2008-2012
• The Mechanism of the Kyoto Protocol namely JI,ET,CDM
34
CDM OverviewsCDM Overviews
CDM are project based mechanisms and involve
developing and implementing projects that reduce
greenhouse gas emission overseas, thereby generating
carbon credits that could be sold on carbon market to
Annex 1 (39 developed countries).
Clean Development Mechanism (CDM)
35
Technologies distribution of CDM projectsTechnologies distribution of CDM projects
• Biofuel (biodiesel, ethanol)
• PV
• Biomass
• Energy Efficiency
• Waste management
• Gas flaring
• Wind
• Small Hydro
• Geothermal
• Etc.
36
CDM and renewablesCDM and renewables
• CDM a mechanism to monetize the carbon
benefits or environmental value of renewables.
• The projects will be more attractive to investors
and financiers with CDM benefit.
37
Certified Emission Reductions (CERs)Certified Emission Reductions (CERs)
a) Represent GHG mitigation contribution of a project,
Measured in tonnes of CO2
b) A second product produced by RE, EE projects
c) CERs can be sold in exchange of hard currency
d) Reduction before 2008 (1st year of commitment period)
can be included
e) Can be counted towards Kyoto compliance and bought by
Annex I countries (Mostly OECD countries with GHG
targets under Kyoto)

Install additional monitoring equipment (if necessary)
Monitor project (and baseline) performance
Have emission reductions verified and certified, after which the carbon credits can be issued and sold
39
Crediting PeriodCrediting Period
• Two choices
– 7 years with an option for renewal at most 2 times
– A maximum of 10 years with no option of renewal
40
Price and PaymentPrice and Payment
• Price of CERs in non-Annex I is $3-$6 per ton CO2
• Price will be determined by supply and demand
• Contract types and pricing varies
41
CDM Requirements and CostsCDM Requirements and Costs
a) The CDM status will be given only to projects which
cannot be implemented without it
b) Those projects which can be implemented as
business as usual are disqualified

Carbon Cash Flow Can Improve Debt Service
How Carbon Cash Flow How Carbon Cash Flow Can Improve Capital StructuresCan Improve Capital Structures
Applying Carbon Cash Flow to Debt Service Can Result in more favorable Capital Structures
Higher DSCR (More Debt Carrying Capacity) means less Equity Requirement – Thereby Increasing ROE
Allows Project to be Financed Because Increases DSCR past Predetermined Threshold set by the Lender
Either Way, Both Project Developer and Project Lender are Better Off
