National Greenhouse Gas Project
This project aims to build capacity in Bhutan to advance national interests related to climate change. This includes capacity to respond to the UNFCCC, to more actively and effectively pursue energy and natural resource management activities related directly or indirectly to climate change abatement and adaptation, and to take advantage of new opportunities related to the procurement of funding or projects related to climate change. The direct objective of this project is to reduce the rate of growth of greenhouse gas emissions in Bhutan.
Efficient Industrial Boilers
This project will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by adapting high efficiency foreign technologies to local conditions for small and medium-sized, coal-fired industrial boilers. To assist the dissemination and effective use of efficient technologies, the project will also strengthen China's industrial-boiler engineering, operations, production management and marketing capabilities, and improve boiler technology exchange domestically.
Promoting Methane Recovery and Utilization from Mixed Municipal Waste
The project's long-term objectives are to promote wide spread adoption of landfill gas recovery technology in China based on the technical and organizational experience gained from the three pilot landfills proposed in this project. specifically, these include 1) significant reduction of emissions of methane; 2) reduction in air, water and land pollution associated with refuse dumping; and 3) promotion of indigenous enterprises that will build and operate recovery systems and utilize the energy.
Solar Thermal Power
The GEF will finance the incremental costs of construction and operation, by the private sector, of a grid-connected, 140MW solar-thermal fossil-fuel hybrid power plant in Rajasthan, incorporating a parabolic trough solar thermal field of about 35-40MW. The plant would demonstrate the operational viability of solar trough technology and its use by an independent power producer with commercial sales and delivery arrangements with the grid. The project is designed to stimulate the expansion of solar-thermal technology worldwide over the long term.
Reduction of Methane Emissions and Utilization of Municipal Waste for Energy in Amman
The project addresses a number of barriers that hinder the local utilization of MSW for methane (CH4) production and extraction to be used as a fuel for the generation of electric power.
Development of A National Strategy and an Action Plan to Implement the CBD and to prepare the First Report to the COP
The objective of this project is to assist the Government in developing a strategy for implementing the CBD.
Lake Victoria Environmental Management
The project will address the major threats facing the Lake Victoria ecosystem, including overfishing, eutrophication and algae levels, pollution, and invasive exotic species like the water hyacinth.
Climate Change Assistance Project
This project aims to build capacity in Papua New Guinea to advance national interests related to climate change. This includes capacity to respond to the UNFCCC, to more actively and effectively pursue energy and natural resource management activities related directly or indirectly to climate change abatement and adaptation, and to take advantage of new opportunities related to the procurement of funding or projects related to climate change. The direct objective of this project is to reduce the rate of growth of greenhouse gas emissions in Papua New Guinea.
Phaseout of Ozone Depleting Substances
This project will phaseout direct annual consumption of at least 1054 metric tons of weighted ozone-depleting substance potential, or about 55% of Poland's 1994 weighted consumption, through phaseout of CFCs in three refrigeration subprojects, two subprojects in other industries requiring foam-blowing, and one subproject in the medical aerosol industry. In addition, it will partially fund a non-profit foundation, Prozon, that will collect and process used refrigerants, primarily CFC-12.
Sustainable and Participatory Energy Management
Participatory, community-forest sustainable management systems in a 300,000 ha zone surrounding Niokolo-Koba National Park will be phased in over a 7-year period with the primary objectives of carbon sequestration and local income enhancement, and secondary biodiversity conservation benefits. A parallel, demand management and fuel substitution component, to be executed with the private sector and NGOs, will promote substitution of kerosene and liquid petroleum gas for charcoal, and will disseminate efficient charcoal stoves.
