1 Tripartite Partnership Clinton Climate Initiative Rocky Mountain Institute-Carbon War Room IRENA Lighthouses June 24, 2015 | IRENA, Martinique

2 Partnership with IRENA CCI and RMI-CWR are pleased to join the IRENA SIDS Lighthouse Initiative Together, we will contribute to the achievement of the objectives of the initiative including: – Developing and implementing a structured approach to island electricity sector transitions to high percentage of renewable energy through a set of guidelines, tools and support mechanisms; – Accelerating renewable energy transitions through identification of needs and gaps, and learning from experiences on other islands; and – Facilitating development of enabling frameworks for investment. 1

3 Vision and Mission To accelerate renewable energy transition in islands economies through mutual learning, collaboration, and application of technologies and policies that transform island energy portfolios. To provide technical, financial, and policy support to island governments and work intimately with utilities, donors, development organization, and the private sector. 2

4 Approach 1. Bring together governments and utilities to develop energy transition strategies guided by the Playbook process – Phase 0: Island Engagement Process – Phase 1: Setting the Vision – Phase 2: Opportunity Roadmap (Grid Integration) – Phase 3: Project Preparation – Phase 4: Project Execution and Quality Control – Phase 5: Operations and Maintenance – Phase 6: Process Improvement 2. Build broad-based support by de-risking initial cohort of renewable energy and energy efficiency projects 3. Create a Community of Practice designed to share lessons, create irreversible bottom-up momentum, and build long-term capacity among island energy transition practitioners 3

5 Activities to Date CCI has partnered with governments of 25 island nations across three continents. – Prepared over 20 renewable energy projects across nine island countries – Facilitated groundbreaking of the 24-megawatt Wigton Wind Farm in Jamaica – Provided negotiation support for geothermal developments in Dominica and St. Vincent – Worked with the UN Development Programme to establish a 1.3-megawatt solar rebate program in the Seychelles – Identified over $900 million in investment opportunities with support from SIDS-DOCK – Made possible through support from the Norwegian Government. RMI-CWR work with Aruba, the Bahamas, Colombia (Providencia and San Andrés islands), Grenada, Saint Lucia, and the Turks & Caicos Islands, with four more countries in the pipeline. 4
