1. Climate Change effects and impacts
1990 CO2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion and land-use change
Africa is not a major contributor to GHG emissions. Largest share of Africa’s
contribution is from land use change and not from energy consumption

G8 request to MDBs
G8 Gleneagles Communiqué (July 2005)



Focus on Africa and on Climate Change
Secure, reliable and affordable energy sources
are fundamental to economic stability and
development
Action has to be taken now to slow, stop and
reverse greenhouse gas emissions
 promote
energy efficiency
 conservation of energy
 improvement of policy-, regulatory- and financingframeworks
 accelerated deployment of cleaner technologies
Slide 7

G8 request to MDBs
World Bank and RDBs requested to develop a
clean energy investment framework to:
 increase the volume of investments on
renewable energy and energy efficiency
 assist regional member countries to identify less
greenhouse gas intensive growth options
 support private sector to develop and finance
cost-effective projects on energy efficiency and
low-carbon energy sources

Slide 11
Energy in Africa

Africa has 13% of global population but consumes 5% of
global energy and 3% of global electricity

Only 23% of population in SSA and 91% in North Africa
has access to electricity yet world average is 73%

Lowest energy consumption per capita of 0.7 toe
compared to world average of 1.6 toe

Traditional biomass (wood fuel and charcoal) contributes
to over 82% of energy used in SSA-less South Africa

Between 2000 and 2050, absolute number of people
depending on biomass expected to rise from 583 to 823
million
Slide 12
Energy in Africa


Abundant resources available (hydro, oil, natural
gas, biomass) but not developed
Unevenly distributed resources yet poor

Energy and development nexus



Energy is central to all developmental
interventions
Energy is a pre-requisite for poverty alleviation
and attainment of the MDGs
The poor are forced to pay a higher price for
their energy. The price is paid in form of:
 Human
time and labour
 Economic cost
 Health costs (mainly indoor air pollution), and
 Social and gender impact of energy services.
Slide 14
4. Clean Energy Investment Framework
Two pronged approach to Climate Change:
 Clean energy and low-carbon economy
 Focus
on cleaner utilisation of fossil fuels
 Increased used of renewables
 Attention to increasing access to energy

Adaptation to climate change
 Climate
proofing of investments
 Integration of adaptation into project cycle
Slide 15
4. Clean Energy Investment Framework

Major energy challenges :
 strengthening
energy security for
macroeconomic stability,
 improving energy services for economic
growth and better quality of life, and
 reducing environmental and human health
threats from energy production and use.
 Low
carbon drive must not have additional
cost on the poor
 “Shared but differentiated responsibilities”
Slide 16
4. Clean Energy Investment Framework
Strategies clean energy




Clean energy for economic growth and
sustainable development
Low-cost and high-impact solutions

development of clean energy projects
Changes in national energy fiscal and regulatory
policies
Slide 17
4. Clean Energy Investment Framework
Adaptation challenges:




Human-induced change: combustion of fossil
fuels & land management practices
Major challenges to Africa
The poor are most vulnerable, having the least
means to adapt
Ensure long-term adaptation strategies
compatible with short term impacts
Slide 18
4. Clean Energy Investment Framework
Adaptation strategies:




Integrating adaptation in PRSPs, Country
Strategy Papers and project cycle
Disaster preparedness improvement through
proactive actions – early warning systems
Development of tools and checklists
Research and Development
Slide 19
4. Clean Energy Investment Framework
Investment needs are huge
 $ 300 billion per year to meet rising energy
demands in developing countries
 $ 60 billion / year additionally for a low-carbon
option
 $ 40 billion / year as cost of adaptation
Public and private resources need to be
mobilised
 New financial instruments needed

Slide 20
Pillar 1: Energy Access - AfDB Priorities
 Enabling
environment for maximising private
participation
 Mobilisation of financing and private
participation
 Electricity for the MDGs
 Energy access for rural development
 Energy for urban development
 Renewable energy and energy efficiency
 Transportation sector fuel efficiency and
emissions; and
 Facilitating countries’ access to CDM
Slide 21
Pillar 2: Clean Energy and RE/EE, AfDB Priorities
 >50MW:
Hydropower, Geothermal power, Cogeneration, Windpower; Biofuel production.
 <50MW: Promote renewables aimed at income
generating activities in the agro/forest industrial sector
such as co-generation and small hydro.
 <5MW: Solar water heaters, windpumps and solar
PVs use in remote rural dispensaries, schools,
commercial wildlife and coastal tourism-linked
enterprises.
 < 1kW (household level):Improved biofuel cookstoves
in countries where charcoal is a major fuel and indoor
air pollution benefits.
Slide 22
The Private Sector Department of the AfDB focuses mainly to
develop (a) the wind energy area (b) the small size
hydropower (c) bio-fuel, (d) Geothermal, and (e) Co-generation

COFAMOSA Ethanol Project



Under the proposed COFAMOSA Irrigation Project, the Government
of Mozambique intends to develop an area of 29,000 ha for irrigated
land under sugar cane for sugar and ethanol production.
The goal of the project is to reduce poverty levels through increased
exports of sugar and ethanol from Mozambique to the region and
beyond.
Based on the preliminary studies, the project aims to:






develop 29,000 ha of irrigated land in possibly 3 phases, over a period of ten
years (first and second phase 10,000 ha each and the third phase of 9,000
ha)
re-settle over 500 farmers in the project area
make use of already existing investment in Corumana Dam and
available good irrigation soils;
create 18,000 jobs (70%) of economically active people in the area); and
make permanent impact in districts of Moamba and Magude and the overall
Mozambican national economy.
Currently the Bank is funding, through the African Water Facility a
consultancy srevice to undertake an integrated feasibility study for
the envisaged project. The Study will commence early next year

assessment and management methods to minimize
climate change and variability risks
 Application of climate risk screening tools to
development programs and investment projects
 Support mainstreaming of climate issues into key
regional, national, local and sectoral planning, policies
and decision making processes,(e.g PRSPs, etc)
 Plan to introduce AfDB Policy on Climate Risk
Management & Adaptation
Slide 38
Climate Information for Development in Africa






Objective: Improve the availability and use of climate information
and services in support of sustainable development and
achievement of the MDGs.
Raising Policy awareness of politicians, planners and the public for
broad ownership, support and commitment to adaptation to climate
variability and change.
Climate Risk Management for strategic MDGs development
planning, sectoral management, livelihood strategies and disaster
risk reduction.
Climate Services for the use of MDGs decision-makers in
government, the private sector and civil society.
Observations, data management and infrastructure upgrading to
provide essential data for climate services, risk management and
policy development.
The results are to be achieved in part by drawing on, and
strengthening the capacity of existing climate institutions in Africa.
