REC Workshop - Facilitating Green Investment Schemes 3
1. Crowding out effects spotted...
• Buyers’ side: funds set-aside for KP mechanisms incorporates GIS less for JI/CDM
• Host’s side regulatory attention towards GIS, whilst JI systems are not fully operational
• Project level alternative routes creating even more confusion
Co-existence of GIS/JI is a fact, how to improve the
situation?

2. Competition and co-operation
• Project differentation for GIS/JI have a clear picture what project type (technical) is suitable for which scheme (EU ETS influence, baseline and monitoring)
• Regulatory preferences and clarity attention to both systems at the same time (allow suppliers to chose)
• Governance do not distort; make it easy (or difficult)
Do not spread your resources too thinly!

3. Some recommendations...
• One step at a time? get your Track 1 JI ready before GIS ( if you cannot make Track 1 you may not succeed with GIS)
• Identify the key GIS implementation challenges if you do not have a credible Environmental Fund, set it up!
• Learning by doing the biggest lesson of JI is that one should start acting....and constantly adjust/correct...
Watch out for lessons of Latvia/Hungary/Romania and those active in the field
