CD4CDM Project. Contribution to CDM implementation

●          Project objectives

●          Targeted countries

●          Results and contributions to the current CDM market

CD4CDM in Nicaragua. Potential Contributions and Expected Results

●          Institutional Arrangements

●          Project Portfolio

●          National priorities

Current Situation of the CDM and the Global Carbon Market

●          Analysis of the pipeline

●          Identification of main gaps: geographical distribution;
      discriminated Sectors; sustainable development
      contribution of CDM projects

●         Can P-CDM make difference?

Programmatic CDM

●          Characteristics

●          How is P-CDM different from traditional CDM and from
      Bundles - examples

●          Potentials contribution of  P-CDM to Sustainable
      Development

●          Advantages and disadvantages

●          Methodological issues for P-CDM: Additionality; leakage;
      boundaries; accrediting period, monitoring, etc

●          Existing baseline methodologies

●         The rules: EB Guidance for Programmatic CDM; Procedures
      for registration of POAs and issuance of CERs for a
      Programme of Activities

Key Actors:

●          DNAs - should DNAs have an active role on P-CDM
      promotion/implementation: by identifying measures or
      non-implemented policies with potential for P-CDM?

●          The coordinating entities - characteristics - who should be
      and who should not be.

●          The DOE’s main concerns

●          Implications for DOEs

●          Implications for DNAs

Getting started with P-CDM

Key potential sectors/technologies:

●          Energy efficiency

●          Rural electrification

●          Solar home systems

●          Methane capture from animal waste

●          Barriers (e.g. lack of policies for EE, institutional capacity)

Programmatic CDM Challenges and Opportunities for Nicaragua

●          Opportunities in Energy Sector and non-energy sectors

●          Institutional preparedness

Brainstorming session to identify potential POAs for Nicaragua. This will include a list of characteristics of potential POAs.

Synthesis and Preliminary Considerations of the First Day.

Programs Formulation - Features and issues of:

POA - DDs

CPA - DDs

P-CDM projects in the pipeline:

●          Bangladesh Solar Home Systems

●          Methane Capture from Swine Waste in Brazil

Working Sessions

●          Identifying Programmes of Activities;

●          POAs preparation for different/prioritized sectors

●          Key issues for a concept idea development of  POAs.
