state and trends of carbon pricing 2014
DESCRIPTION
This presentation informs on the World Bank Report "State and Trends of Carbon Pricing 2014". Written with support from Ecofys, the report explores the current status of carbon pricing instruments around the world. Countries increasingly see carbon pricing as an opportunity to deliver benefits both to the climate and a sustainable economy. Today, 39 national and 23 sub-national jurisdictions – responsible for almost a quarter of the global greenhouse gas emissions – have implemented or are scheduled to implement carbon pricing instruments. The presentation was given at Carbon Expo in May 2014. © 2014 The World Bank Group, All Rights Reserved.TRANSCRIPT

1/8 of global GHG emissions under the KP CP2 (so far, only 9 Countries have ratified)
So far, the only country with a CP2 target that ratified the KP CP2 is Monaco, with 90k CO2e (0.0002% of global GHG)

Monaco Size represent relative annual GHG emissions
Ukraine, Kazakhstan, and Belarus have not yet confirmed
International credit supply outstrips demand, but CDM success should not be overlooked
Full potential for issuance for 2014–2020
Residual demand for 2014–2020
OVERALL CDM SUCCESS

With the newcomers, the world’s emissions trading schemes are worth about US$30 billion

Carbon taxes around the world are evolving to allow more flexibility to reduce emissions
Price signals in carbon pricing initiatives are diverse
• Carbon prices among schemes occupy a significant range
• Prices are:
• Aligned with national priorities and political realities
• Consistent with the international dialogue
• Reflecting features in each instrument
About 40 national and over 20 sub-national jurisdictions are putting a price on carbon
Carbon pricing instruments cover almost 6 GtCO2e
Full deployment of available instruments for international cooperation is needed
