1. The Prototype Carbon Fund: Project Portfolio Development Issues

2. Project Selection and Portfolio Criteria Generic: Adhering to UNFCCC, Bank standard, with emphasis on renewable energy projects Proven and low risk technology Environmental additionality essential Balance between CDM and JI with initial emphasis on CDM Not less than 2% and no more than 10% of Fund’s assets in one project Not more than 20% of Fund’s assets invested in Projects in the same host country Not more than 10% of the Fund’s assets in forest-based sinks (and only in EITs) Emphasis on renewable energy technology - but no more than 25% of the Fund’s assets in any one technology

3. Technology mix in the Portfolio A 3:2 ratio of renewables and energy efficiency Some supply side energy efficiency projects (such as use of flared gas in Africa) planned RegionFinal project profileOngoing RETEETotalRETEE Eur & C Asia4-63-471 Latin America 2-31-23-41 Africa 2-31-22-41 East Asia1-21-22-3 South Asia1-21-22-31 Total9-126-815-2031

4. Regional and time distribution projects Initial portfolio development based on –responding to Central and South America –developing projects in Africa and EITs –waiting for demand to develop in Asia Regional distribution of project pipeline development RegionFY00FY01FY02FY03Total Total24-65-93-615-20 Europe & C Asia12-31-21-27 Latin America 11-21-23-4 Africa 1-21-22-4 East Asia1-21-22-3 South Asia1-21-22-3

5. PCF Pipeline Status Latvia: Liepaja Region Solid Waste Management To be consideration by the Participant Committee: –Costa Rica Fund for Renewable Energy Under consideration of the PCF Team –Uganda: Rural Energy –India: Upgrading Efficiency of a Distribution Company –Czech Republic: Conversion from coal to geothermal district heating –ESCO-intermediated Energy Efficiency in Poland and other Eastern European Countries

6. Role of Established Intermediaries Features –All PCF procedures to be followed by Private Sector Intermediary –Payment on delivery of emission reduction –Third Party Co-financing encouraged Advantages –Enables participation of small projects and countries –Builds market capacity through leveraging –Payment on delivery reduces price and quality risk Disadvantages –Added political and procedural complexity –Risk of substantial unplaced fund at the end of investment period

7. Established Intermediaries pipeline possibilities Costa Rica: Fund for Renewable Energy Central America: Renewable Energy Fund with RDB/ Private Sector bank ESCO-intermediated Energy Efficiency in Poland and other Eastern European Countries

8. Issues for discussion Relative share of renewables and energy efficiency in the portfolio –should fossil fuel supply side efficiency be included Geographical distribution of projects –Pressure from Central and South America –Building demand in Africa –Being reactive in Asia Time distribution of projects –All investment be placed by June 2003 –This would require 75% of the projects be identified by June 2001

9. Issues for discussion (2) Project development –Relative emphasis on Established Intermediaries –Relative share of IBRD and IFC in the portfolio –Third party projects from Participants Others Price outcome goals –Portfolio average 20 $/T of C (or 5-6 $/T of CO2) –Time slice (up to 2012) of purchase and price outcome
