Regulatory improvements & new markets popping up worldwide Durban decisions increased the regulatory clarity on existing market and advanced on new market instruments Several jurisdictions passed climate bills, including market initiatives Australia, California, Quebec, Republic of Korea, Mexico AU EU linkage no later than 2018 New initiatives signal that solutions to climate challenge will emerge.
What has been done so far Cumulative pcers transacted equals 2.4 bln CERs in 2002-11 which is larger than the annual EU ETS emissions and 80% of Kyoto s total targets (~3 bln tco2e over 2008-12) ERPAs reach US$28 bln (and will support about US$150 bln in low-carbon investments, mostly from private sector) vs. all clean energy investments to developing countries of about US$80 bln annually in 2010 and 2011 at long-term average price of $10-$15 per ton which is much lower than the marginal abatement cost for developed countries (reduce emissions through domestic measures)
