Status Report on NAMAs: Mid-year update June 2013

This mid-year update of the Annual Status Report on Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions, last published by Ecofys and ECN in November 2012, highlights recent trends in NAMA development and support and identifies where more progress is needed. In the last year alone, a large amount of new guidance on nationally appropriate mitigation actions (NAMAs) has been made available and the number of NAMAs under development continues to grow. These NAMAs are in different stages of development, as recorded in the Ecofys NAMA database (Ecofys, 2013), and many are currently seeking international support for preparation and implementation.

 

This paper contains:

  •  a detailed analysis of the status of NAMA development;
  •  a discussion on the NAMA Facility, which was announced by the British and German Governments, as well as  the NAMA  Partnership;
  •  information on selected NAMA development initiatives; and
  •  an analysis of where progress is most needed.
