Review and revision of existing targets

“Indonesia’s INDC is a by-product of the Indonesia Mitigation Policy review process”
- BAPPENAS, 2015
2020
2030
Beyond
Embedding the INDC into a Review and Revision process of existing policy targets is more efficient and more effective than beginning new processes.
• Ensure integration of INDC in national policy • Reduce burden of undertaking new analysis from start • Established roles and responsibilities • Experience and evidence to reduce uncertainty • Understand the implications of policy implementation
Continued review and revision of institutionalised climate change policy / INDC

Acceleration of existing climate change processes
www.newclimate.org 15 www.newclimate.org 15
75% of countries report that the INDC process has helped to accelerate existing processes.
Completion of existing processes required as input
Increased attention and awareness for climate change activities
Priority stimulus to overcome barriers common to INDC and other processes

Conclusions
INDC preparation underway with 58% emissions covered by
June and large wave in September
Challenges include
What to include in INDCs
How to mitigate limited capacity
How to secure broad participation and support
Opportunities
Improved and accelerated national process

Overview of existing submissions
Country coverage: Countries cover a range of regions and income levels.
INDC types: Most existing submissions are based on economy-wide GHG targets; less than half of all Parties are eventually expected to include these.
Mitigation and adaptation: All focus primarily on mitigation; Mexico and Gabon have included adaptation in their INDCs; over 50% of countries are expected to include adaptation.
Conditional INDCs: Mexico’s INDC is the only existing example to include both an unconditional and a conditional contribution.
