  1. Design of NAMAs NAMA Webinar September 11 2012 Francisco Avendano LECB Programme EEG/BDP United Nations Development Programme

  2. What is a NAMA? • A group of feasible country driven activities leading to measureable, reportable and verifiable GHG emissions reductions. • Measurable: it should specify how many tons of GHG will be reduced along a period of time. • Reportable: the nature of the activities should be documented so clear cause and effect can be evidenced. The when, where, who, how and at what cost should be documented and reported. • Verifiable: it should pass satisfactorily a third party verification of statements, reports and validity of assumptions.

  3. Key issues to consider while structuring a NAMA • A NAMA can take diverse forms but in order to upscale mitigation efforts at global, regional and national levels the following aspects should be considered: • Comparability. Financing sources can compare apples to apples. • Compatibility. Sharing performance indicators and co-benefit analysis benchmarks eases the assessments for prioritization. • Coherence. Coherence with policy trends and funding dynamics enable programmatic approaches instead of random initiatives. • Capacity friendly. Compatibility and coherency will shorten the learning curve for upscaling NAMAs.

  4. Key components in NAMAs • A reference template may help to build capacities with the same target across countries: enable them to design and implement NAMAs. Such a template should have at least the following components: • Description of proposed activities: geographical and sectoral boundaries, calendar, actors and roles, assumptions and policy framework if any. • Sectoral baseline and NAMA baseline. • Estimation of emissions with and without the NAMA. • Monitoring Plan. NAMA indicators and parameters. • Management Plan. • Phased Financial structure. • Reporting Plan.

  5. NAMA financing considerations Phased Financial structure PILOT SECTORAL UPSCALE IDEA CONCEPT FEASIBILITY IMPLEMENTATION PROJECTS DONOR PUBLIC BUDGET CORPORATE EQUITY CREDITORS AND INVESTORS

  6. What approaches are being taken for NAMA design? SD Vision Bottom up approach: Institutions /Companies formulate NAMAs in response to institutional/ sectoral/ corporate needs and opportunities Alignment with policies. Upscale through public budget/donor cofinance. Provide input for realistic LEDS Top down approach: Set policy objective & targets. Align budget and resources. Formulate NAMAs to implement policies. Look for implementers and cofinance • LEDS Strategy • NAMA 1 • NAMA 2 • NAMA 3 MRV MRV MRV MRV

  7. Final Remarks • National context influences institutional setting for NAMAs. • Not always an umbrella policy (e.g. LEDS) is available, so most NAMAs are being developed in parallel with policies, this favors a bottom up approach in many cases. • NAMA ownership is a must in key actors. • Compatibility, Comparability and Coherence are key issues to design NAMAs. • Phased and multi source financing is key for NAMA implementation and impact.
