Renewable energy vs fossil-fuel energy
Developed vs. developing countries
Source: UNDP, Derisking Renewable Energy Investment (2013). See Annex A of the report for full assumptions.
All assumptions (technology costs, capital structure etc.) except for financing costs are kept constant between the developed and developing country.
Operating costs appear as a lower contribution to LCOE in developing countries due to discounting effects from higher financing costs.

Challenges to Financing the Post-2015 ERA
• Reforming Financial Markets.
• Transforming sector markets efficiently to align
corporate and household finance with global and
national sustainable development goals
• Increasing sources of public finance to create
enabling policy environments and catalyze private
finance
• Enhancing the capacity of developing countries to
access, combine and sequence development finance
to support market transformation

The post-derisking cost of debt and equity show the average impacts over a 20 year modelling period, assuming linear timing effects.

Domestic Revenue Mobilization
• Broadening tax bases
• Fiscal reforms: from fossil fuel subsidies to
polluter fines and reduction of loopholes
• Curbing Illegal flows and aggressive transfer
pricing
• Tapping private wealth
• Commodities and Sovereign Wealth Funds
• Innovative sources of finance: diaspora bonds
and remittance-backed bonds; resources-forinfrastructure;

Potential Sources of Innovative Climate Finance
1. Public finance from climate sources
 Phase out of regressive fossil fuel subsidies
 Fossil fuel extraction royalties/licenses
 AAU auction proceeds
 Emission Trading Schemes (ETS) auction proceeds
 Carbon taxes/Carbon export optimization taxes
 Marine and aviation/bunker fuel levies
 Offset levies
 Wires charge on electricity production
2. Public finance from non-climate sources
 ‘Tobin’ tax, taxing revenues from financial transactions
 Leveraging of IMF Special Drawing Rights
3. Carbon markets
4. Other international financing proposals
 Debt for clean energy swap
 International Lottery
25
Global Networks and Alliances
• The “Summary of Commitments” of the UN SG
Summit on maternal and child health documents
more than $ 40 billion of promises over a five
year period from:
–
–
–
–
35 countries in attendance;
54 civil society organizations (the Gate Foundation pledged $ 1.5 billion);
Private companies (Merck committed $ 840 million for HIV prevention and treatment);
Multilateral agencies (WHO, GAVI, WB, etc.)
• Similar fluid and dynamic coalitions are
coalescing around all major collactive
challenges.
26
ODA in the “Post-2015” Era
• The expanding set of global objectives: Peace, Poverty, Equality and
Environmental Sustainability;
• The New faces of poverty and equity;
• The fiscal capacity of low-income countries, fragile states and some small
island states remain very limited;
• Exposure and countries’ capacities to cope with shocks vary;
• Conflicts and negative development;
• Common and differentiated responsibilities for global commons
(compensation, trade or ODA?);
• A number of innovative financing instruments required a global
cooperation;
• Regional and thematic unbalance of private capital flows;
• Markets are public-private partnerships, not platonic entities from high on;
• The Complexity of Sustainable Development Finance.

Accessing the Adaptation Fund
•
Direct access is about
developing institutions that
have capacities for financial
management, integrity,
transparency and selfinvestigatory powers;
•
UNDP encourages countries
to develop their institutions to
qualify for direct access.
