Examples
• What has been done: success and profits

Role of the World Bank
• How can we help

Conclusions
Responses To Date


Long term planning now usually includes CC
New institutions (Climate Cord. Committee, Thailand
Greenhouse Gas Management Organization - TGO)





New energy conservation measures and
promotion of Renewable Energy
Stabilized forest cover (in most areas)
Research on methane emissions, models, etc.
CDM projects (10+ registered, 20+ submitted,

Etc…..
Example of Business
Opportunities in Asian Countries:
Solar Energy


Suntech Solar was founded in 2001 in Wuxi (China)
It’s already a worldwide leader in solar energy:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Sales offices in North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia
4 production sites
8,000 global employees
Revenues: USD 1,348 million
Net Income: USD 171.3 million
Net margin: 12,7%
Total Assets: USD 1,957 million
364 MW installed, good forecast
Example of Business
Opportunities in Asian Countries:
Wind Energy


Suzlon began in 1995 with just 20 people.
In a little over a decade has become a global leader:
• 5th World turbine manufacturer (market share of 10.5%)
• Asian leader (50+% market share in India).
• Operations in 20 countries and manufacturing units across
America, Asia, Australia and Europe
• Order book of $4,304 million (equivalent to 3,454 MW)
•
•

World Bank Group’s Role







Multi-sectoral perspective;
Financial resources and leveraging power;
Working with the private sector through IFC;
Building partnerships with a wide range of

Evolving New Financial Architecture

Current
• IBRD, IDA, Investment Guarantees
• Global financing mechanisms: GEF, CF
• Bilateral TFs: e.g. AUSAid – Infrastructure for Growth TF;
PHRD Climate Change Window, TFESSD, ESMAP, EASTE…

New/planned
• Climate Investment Funds – UK, US, Japan, >$5 billion total
capital for Clean Technology
• Carbon Partnership Facility ($5b/5yrs)—programmatic CF
investments
• Forest Carbon Partnership Facility ($300m initially)—TA and
CF for REDD

UNFCCC Process (approved in Bali)- funds in GEF:
• Technology Transformation Fund— focus in MICs, support of
low carbon economy strategies)
• Adaptation Fund ($80-300m)— from 2% tax on CDM deals
Leveraging: GEF, CTF, & CPF can Result in
Transformation of a Clean Energy Market
