Key Demonstration Effects
… that investments under CDM/JI can:• Earn export revenue for Developing
Countries/Transition Economies engaging in the new ER commodity trade
• Increase the profitability of cleaner more efficient technology in energy, industry, and transport sectors
• Contribute to sustainable development … and how private sector and governments can implement the CDM/JI project cycle and compete in emerging carbon market
PCF Status and Focus
Deal flow far exceeds funding - several carbon contracts now under negotiation
� >50 deals with $350m+ carbon purchases under review
� Targeting signed Emissions Reductions Purchase Agreements (ERPAs)� by end 2001 15 deals of $45-50mm in Chile,
Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Brazil, India, Uganda, Romania, Morocco
� by July 2002 ~$35mm in Guatemala, Argentina, Honduras, Thailand, El Salvador, Belarus, Nicaragua, Czech;
� Under review or on hold for FY02 ~$40mm: China, Kazakhastan, Belarus, Guyana, Hungary, Poland
� Constraints: FMU and country capacity, quality of asset

Carbon prices on past transactions
Based on data provided by Natsource for the PCF, June 2001.
Early developments of the market 1997 to 2001
• Partial information available.
• Within OECD and EITs: 40-60 MtCO2e have been transacted.
• In developing countries: Less activity but growing. Mostly government funded, but private activity growing.
• General trend towards sophistication: buyers clubs (PCF), traders, financial derivatives (options), integrated marketplaces, etc.
Demand and supply under Kyoto scenarios
Total Annex Bdemand for ERs
Domestic carbon sinks
Hot Air financial flow to Russia and EE
Action within OECDRemainder Russia and EE (trading and JI)
Developing countries (CDM)
Volumes in Kyoto w/o the US
Gross annual demand for ERs 1400 – 2400 MtCO2ebetween 2008 and 2012
- Credits for hot air 950 – 2150
- Credits for Annex B Sinks 330
= Net demand 0 – 1800 MtCO2e
Based on UNFCCC Technical Paper 2001/01 “Comparison of emission projections” and in-house analysis.
Carbon Market Impact
• Hot Air and new Annex I Sinks Allowances depresses CDM/JI market– W/o US, up to 100% of OECD needs may be
met by Hot Air+sinks.
• Both CDM/JI “project-based” Market and “Hot –Air” (emissions trading) market will be “policy-driven”– Hot Air may be cheap but politically
unpalatable– CDM/JI project-based more expensive and
difficult but high quality and politically acceptable
Prices in Post CoP6 World
• With full competition, market analysis suggests:
– CDM trades down to $0-7/tCO2;
– lower range of $0-4/tCO2 more likely– PCF pays $3-4/tCO2
• Non-KP Market drivers are significant: OECD domestic regimes and Corporate Voluntary market
Other Emerging Market Drivers
• Regulations constraining carbon emissions are being developed– National policies (UK, The Netherlands,
etc.)– Subnational regulations (e.g. some US
States)– Regional initiatives (EU-wide trading)
• Some firms are taking voluntary emission commitments

Based on Confederation of Norwegian Business and Industry: “Meeting the Kyoto Protocol Commitments, Summary - Domestic Emissions Trading Schemes”, January 2001.
Regional regulations in the US
• Oregon: CO2 emissions standard for new energy utilities. Price cap: $0.57/tCo2. Utilities can offset emissions using project based mechanisms.
• Washington: New plants must demonstrate the use of best available techniques for CO2 emissions control.
• Massachusetts: CO2 emissions cap for energy utilities effective in 2005. Utilities can offset excess emissions using project-based mechanisms.
• Near future: New York?
Voluntary corporate commitments
• Rapid survey indicates more than fifty companies representing one billion tCO2e emissions in 1999 have pledged to reduce GHG emissions by 2010.
• Resulting demand depends on the baseline. If we set baseline at 1999 emissions, we obtain a total demand of 500 MtCO2e over the next decade.
• At least eight have said they would use project based mechanisms.

Hydro: Off-grid vs. Grid
• Methane-capture projects: carbon finance can turn “dogs” into “cash cows”
• “Traditional” renewables: boost return by 0.5-2.5%– Off-grid projects have higher carbon factor– Makes marginal deals bankable– Reduces subsidy required – may attract ODA (addl
boost)• Improves project’s access to capital markets thru:
– Certain, contractual flow of FX from reliable counterparty
– “Seal of approval” – Improved Quality of cash flows
Sponsor can borrow against contract (like PPA)
Impact of Carbon Finance on Project Financing at $3/t CO2e
Conclusions:• High financial impact on Methane projects• Catalytic for traditional renewables as well
– Improved financial viability• Quality of cash flows• Quality of asset – SRI featuresEnhanced ability to attract financing + donors
– Greater impact for off-grid solutions– Local environmental, social benefits
Impact of Carbon Finance on Project Financing
Methane project : India SWM• Gasification of solid waste• 15 MW plant, 95 GWh/ann, $38m cost• ERs from:
– Power generation displacing fossil fuel (40%) – Methane capture & conversion (60%)

Summary Findings from Fund Manager Interviews
• 5 private Funds to capture C-credits in all investments (UBS, Hancock, Commonwealth, Carbon Trader, Env Fin Prod)
• Handful of private equity funds also seeking carbon credit investors to raise IRR in deals
• Major forestry funds thinking about C credits• New energy private equity and mutual funds
might seek C credit deals if demand rises• Social funds use C as screening indicator• total capital driving C credits: $2.5-4 billion in
Energy sector; $1bn+ in forestry
Investor Carbon Market Sentiment
• Most fence sitting – waiting for national and international regulations
• Early movers in deals and funds:– have high carbon exposure and regulatory risk,– are seeking strategic positioning – are seeking to influence policy– are at an early stage– wish to capture upside speculative C benefit
• Mainstream investment, “big” money still skeptical
Carbon Funds(All leverage private finance)
• PCF $145M + potential fund subscription by Participants up to $180m
• Netherlands Clean Development Funds: ~$230m over three to four years
• Commonwealth Bank’s Clean Fuel Program BP is first participant, other companies expected. Funded by consumer “checkoff.” Program invests in GHG mitigation projects in Australia. AGO certifies.
• National FundsAustralian government funds/initiatives The Netherlands – Eru-PT – government funded
Typology of Funds/Plays
• Pure Carbon Funds (PCF, National Funds)• Private Equity Funds
Aimed at JI/CDM Projects New Energy, RE, EE Funds with Carbon Credits Forestry Funds with Carbon Credits Energy or Forestry Funds that Could Add Carbon Credits
• Mutual Funds with % in Private Equity• NGO Funds• Sustainability, Social, Ethical Mutual funds• Corporate “Funds” Earmarked for Carbon
