GCF案件形成と そのためのカントリープログラムの位置づけ MOEJ/GEC Support Programme for GCF Project Development and Consideration for Country Programme 「GCFプロジェクト形成促進セミナー」 (2018/03/09) (公財)地球環境センター(GEC) Global Environment Centre Foundation

Background of GCF Project Development Programme • Each country has developed its Nationally Determined

Background of GCF Project Development Programme • Each country has developed its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to achieve the goals set in the Paris Agreement, and now is the time for the implementation. NDCs / Needs / Priorities • UNFCCC has established the Technology Mechanism (CTCN/TEC) as well as the Financial Mechanism (GCF/GEF) at COP 16, and these mechanisms are also to serve the Paris Agreement. MOEJ / GEC support GCF CTCN • While these support mechanisms are in place, there are still some challenges in developing countries to develop projects to be implemented. Project Implementation • The Ministry of the Environment, Japan (MOEJ) has launched a support programme to build capacity for developing countries’ partners in the Asia-Pacific region to enhance access to those mechanisms. Achieving Paris Agreement 2

Expected outcomes through the programme Before After GCF ・In line with the NDC and National Priority? ・Has the proponent closely consulted with NDA? ・Can we really issue the No objection letter (NOL)? Finance NDA NOL Funding Proposal Project Develo pment Accredited Entity Projects Host Country • Project development aligned with the NDC and national needs/plans • Enhanced country ownership -> (Hopefully) Higher possibility of approval by the GCF Board MOEJ/GEC Support Funding Proposal Accredited Entity Projects Host Country Involving NDA through project development process Technology Support Technology Private Entity Japan

Activities under the support programme 1. Identification of needs and seeds q q Needs

Activities under the support programme 1. Identification of needs and seeds q q Needs research (desktop): 18 countries in the Asia-Pacific region; Needs research (interview): 6 countries out of the 18 above; Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Indonesia, the Philippines and Sri Lanka q q Seeds research (interview): Around 30 private companies; Matchmaking: Identifying project ideas based on the needs and seeds. 2. Preparation of GCF projects in consultation with key stakeholders q Consulted with NDAs: q identified technology seeds, and q shortlisted the project ideas for further elaboration; q Consulted with potential AEs and other relevant stakeholders; è Developed 3 draft GCF concept notes; Receiving feedbacks from key stakeholders including NDAs and AEs. 4

Country Programmes • Country Programme, prepared by each host country, indicates prioritized sectors and/or projects for GCF application, in order to ensure the country ownership. • Country Programme are developed along with the existing policy documents, such as NDC, NAP, national climate change strategy/programme, TNA, etc. • When developing a GCF project, proponents should consider how the project can address the priority set in the country programme. • Not many developing countries have completed their country programme yet. 6

Conclusions • Alignment with Country Programme and other relevant policy documents (including NDC) is essential. Country Programmes are under development in most of developing countries through readiness support. • Early consultation with NDA is important. In addition, other relevant line ministries should be involved in the GCF project development process. • Development of “Concept Note” is optional, but it is highly useful (for sharing information with and receiving feedbacks from AEs and/or NDAs + line ministries) • International AEs have already developed their own projects through internal processes. Starting new cooperation may take time - 2 -3 years? • When cooperating with the international AEs, projects should be closely aligned with AE’s existing pipeline and their operation programme/plan/strategy for each developing country. • We identified DAEs (Direct Access Entities) in developing countries could be one of the effective ways, even before their official accreditation. In such case, the cooperation can contribute to building the capacity of the potential DAEs. • When developing funding proposals (concept notes), it should clearly explain the rationale for the needs of GCF’s support such as “why GCF? ”, “why grant/loan? ” and “why this amount of finance? ” to “convince” the GCF. 15
