Capacity Building for the Adoption and Application of Energy Codes for Buildings
Although baseline activities are on-going in both the Lebanese Republic and the Palestinian Authority to update existing building codes and improve end-use energy efficiency, these activities do not address barriers hindering the inclusion of energy codes in the available building codes or construction of energy efficient buildings. The project will add on the existing activities and will provide the stakeholders with needed support to establish cost-effective energy codes in buildings.
Metro Manila Urban Transport Integration Project - Marikina Bikeways Project Component
Promote expanded use of non-motorized transport as an alternative to fossil-fuel burning motorized transport by providing facilities (bike lanes and paths, parking, awareness and safety campains) for bicycle transport in the city of Marikina, Metro Manila.
Removing Barriers to the Increased Use of Biomass as an Energy Source
The project will help the Government of Slovenia to achieve GHG mitigation targets specified in preliminary results of a GEF sponsored Enabling Activity. It is expected that the removal of technical, institutional, information, and financial barriers to increased use of biomass as an energy source will lead to expeditious growth of the market for biomass co-generation technologies.
Public Sector Energy Efficiency Programme
The project aims to improve the energy efficiency of its public sector thus mitigating the emissions of greenhouse gases, mainly carbon dioxide. the project seeks to remove the barriers for a sustained market of energy efficiency services and promote the implementation of energy efficiency projects in municipalities, hospitals and other public institutions. It is estimated that the project will directly help generate 45-75 projects which will result in mitigating carbon emissions.
Conservation and Sustainable Use of Biodiversity in the Andes Region
Project would support the implementation of the National Biodiversity Plan and assist in application of its key strategies (conservation, sustainable and equitable use and improved knowledge of biological resources) in the critical Andes region.
Development of National Biosafety Frameworks
The overal objective of this project is to prepare for the entry into force the Cartagena Protocol on biosafety and in doing so, the project will contribute to assisting GEF eligible countries to prepare their national biosafety frameworks and promote regional collaboration and exchange of experience on issues of relevance to national biosafety frameworks.
Biomass Energy for Rural India
This project aims at developing and implementing a bioenergy technology package to reduce GHG emissions by up to 177 tons of C over the next 25 years, and to promote a sustainable and participatory approach to meeting rural energy needs. The project will be implemented mainly in two panchayats (a cluster of about 24 villages), of Tumkur district in Karnataka. The project goals will be achieved through (i). Demonstrating the technical feasibility and financial viability of bioenergy technologies on a significant scale, (ii).
Protected Areas Development
The GEF will finance the incremental costs of programs and investments needed to conserve biodiversity in Caucasus forest ecosystems.
Integrated Ecosystem Management in 3 Priority Ecoregions
The project will protect biodiversity and sustain vital ecological functions within three globally significant ecoregions: the Tehuantepec Moist Forest, the Pacific Dry Tropical Forests, and the Sierra Madre del Sur Pine-Oak Forest. These ecoregions contain a range of forest communities including pine forest, pine-oak forests, cloud forest, tropical rain forest, tropical dry forest and mangroves, which provide habitat for native fauna, act as carbon reservoirs, and protect watersheds.
Building Chiller Replacement Program
The project seeks to remove barriers preventing the widespread replacement of low energy efficiency building chillers with highly energy efficient non-CFC chillers in Thailand. This will address two global problems at the same time: Global warming and stratospheric ozone layer depletion. In view of these dual benefits joint GEF - Multilateral Fund financing is proposed to address perceived risks associated with chiller replacements under tropical conditions, to cover increased initial transaction costs and to resolve access to credit problems.
