Feeding into UNFCCC processes • The CCXG provides a platform for government delegates and experts from developed and developing countries to enable dialogue and enhance understanding of issues feeding into UNFCCC processes. It holds two seminars per year and develops papers on technical issues relevant to the negotiations in consultation with a wide range of countries. The OECD provides the secretariat for the group, together with the International Energy Agency (IEA).

Hands-on • In the lead up to COP21 the CCXG is undertaking work on: • Design and elements of a 2015 agreement.

• Climate finance.

• Post-2020 accounting framework.

2. PROMOTING EFFECTIVE M I T I G AT I O N P O L I C Y Policy instruments • Climate change mitigation depends on coherent and credible market signals that the price of greenhouse gas emissions will increase over time. The OECD is working to support governments in implementing least-cost emissions reduction policies such as taxes, tradable permit systems and the elimination of subsidies for fossil fuels.

Fossil-fuel subsidies • The OECD is updating its Inventory of Estimated Budgetary Support and Tax Expenditures for Fossil Fuels in 2015 to promote transparency and accountability for environmentally-harmful subsidies. The report Climate Change Mitigation: Policies and Progress to be launched in November will draw on OECD Economic Surveys to provide an overview of mitigation policy settings and emissions trends in OECD countries and partner economies in the context of countries’ international climate commitments.

Taxes on energy products • A number of other policy instruments such as energy taxation implicitly price emissions. Taxes on energy products amount to around 70% of all revenues from environmentally related taxation in OECD countries. Taxing Energy Use: A Graphical Analysis – to be updated in 2015 – helps governments understand price signals conveyed by current tax systems and how they might be better geared to support the low-carbon transition.

Climate modelling • The OECD’s ongoing Costs of Inaction and Resource scarcity: Consequences for Long-term Economic growth (CIRCLE) project is working to identify how feedback from climate change will affect economic growth and quantify benefits of policy action.

3. ALIGNING POLICIES FOR THE LOW- CARBON TRANSITION

4. INVESTING IN AND FINANCING THE LOW- CARBON TRANSITiON

Looking across policy areas • Since almost all economic activities generate greenhouse gas emissions (GHG), climate policy interacts with policies in many more areas. Its policy instruments, and the economic signals they create, overlay and interact with the goals and instruments of existing policy frameworks. The result can be frictions, unintended consequences or even actively conflicting policy objectives. Core climate policies are therefore essential, but not sufficient to effectively tackle climate change. Governments must look across policy areas and examine how to better align policies for a successful economic transition to low-carbon economies.

Institutional investors • A major shift in investment patterns is needed to meet international climate goals. That shift will depend on effective policy to channel private-sector finance in favour of low-carbon investment, particularly in infrastructure sectors. The OECD is advising countries on domestic policy frameworks for low-carbon investment and how to engage institutional investors – a particularly promising, but currently inactive source of finance.

Correcting policy misalignments • Several misalignments in existing policy frameworks currently hinder the transition to low-carbon economies. They exist in core, cross-cutting economic policy domains (investment, taxation, innovation and international trade), as well as policy governing specific areas that are fundamental to the transition (electricity systems, water infrastructure, urban mobility and rural land use). Correcting them is likely to significantly improve the effectiveness of climate policies.

Including other ministries • The OECD, jointly with the IEA, ITF and NEA, is providing first guidance to governments – including ministries insufficiently mobilised in developing and implementing climate-response strategies to date – on alignment of policy and regulatory frameworks with climate goals.

Policy guidance • The report on Policy Guidance for Investment in Clean Energy Infrastructure: Expanding Access to Clean Energy for Green Growth and Development advises governments across investment policy, investment promotion and facilitation, energy-market design and competition policy, financial market policy and governance of energy-market institutions.

Barriers to international investment • Governments also need to pay attention to barriers to international investment, such as local content requirements, that may hinder low-carbon infrastructure investment. Overcoming Barriers to International Investment in Clean Energy provides guidance to governments on possible impacts of such barriers in solar and wind energy, and how to avoid them in designing support policies for low-carbon energy.

Channels for low-carbon investments • Traditional sources of low-carbon investments such as governments and banks face increasing constraints in the wake of the economic crisis. Alternative sources are needed to compensate. Mapping Channels to Mobilise Institutional Investment in Sustainable Energy guides policy makers on the processes and channels through which institutional investors make low-carbon investments, and how to facilitate them.

Social objectives • Climate change mitigation policy is likely to encounter political opposition if policy reforms do not take careful account of any social impacts of reform, including potential consequences for households, labour markets and firms.

Social objectives should be considered and pursued as an integral part of policy design, to ensure the transition is inclusive.

Measurement & reporting systems for climate finance • Tracking private and public climate finance flows is essential to monitoring progress in the international effort to address climate change, but there are significant data, methodological and knowledge gaps. The OECD is contributing to more transparent and comprehensive international measurement and reporting systems for climate finance in developing countries. The OECD’s Development Assistance Committee (DAC) collects statistics and monitors development finance targeting climate change mitigation and adaptation using the “Rio markers”. DAC statistics capture an integrated picture of bilateral and multilateral climate-related development finance flows from 2013, and activity-level data is publicly available online. Efforts are ongoing to improve data quality, coverage, communication and use. In 2015, the OECD DAC is also conducting a survey with development finance actors on private finance mobilised by syndicated loans, shares in collective investment vehicles and guarantees.

Distributional effects of energy taxes • Concern about potential impacts of energy sector reform in particular is a major obstacle to reform, but evidence of actual effects is scarce. To help inform policy making and communication with the public, work is being undertaken to advance understanding of distributional effects of energy taxes based on experience in 21 OECD countries.

The OECD is also undertaking modelling work to assess potential distributional consequences of fossil- fuel subsidy reform. The work highlights the importance of redistributive schemes to households.

Competitiveness impacts of reform • Potential competitiveness impacts of mitigation policy can also represent a major stumbling block to reform.

Assessing the extent of any unintended losses – and whether measures such as multilateral policy co-ordination are warranted – means understanding how the economy as a whole will likely adjust to new environmental regulation. Recent and forthcoming work supports governments to this end, based on empirical evidence.

The work suggests that competitiveness impacts of reform appear to be largely overstated by industry.

Tracking Private Climate Finance • The OECD also leads a Research Collaborative on Tracking Private Climate Finance. The initiative brings together relevant research organisations, international finance institutions and interested governments to help identify, develop and assess options for measuring private climate finance flows to, between and in developing countries, and determine private flows mobilised by public interventions.

Monitoring & strengthening adaptation & risk management • Climate change mitigation efforts need to move hand-inhand with policies and incentives to adapt to the effects of climate change. Countries are scaling up preparations: more than 75% of OECD countries have either published, or are developing, national adaptation strategies. OECD countries are also working to better integrate climate change adaptation into development co-operation and supporting partner countries in building climate resilience.

Sustainable food production • To address climate change issues, agriculture has a key role to play given both its high vulnerability to climate change and its significant contribution to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Managing risk • To reduce risks arising from climate change and improve the management of those risks that remain, countries must identify the range of potential risks, characterise them, explore and choose policy options, and monitor and evaluate risk management measures. The OECD is supporting this process by providing evidence of the costs and benefits of adaptation, guidance on financing required investments and tools to help them measure progress.

Sectoral adaptation: agriculture, energy, water and transport • The sectoral level is crucial for implementing adaptation. The OECD, IEA, NEA and ITF are working to support adaptation through the integration of adaptation into their sectoral analyses and policy guidance. For example, the OECD is assisting countries to advance strategic investment in water infrastructure, institutions and information to safeguard growth against the effects of climate change.

Adaptation in agriculture • Climate change is already affecting agriculture and is expected to further impact directly and indirectly food production. A report The role of public policies in promoting adaptation in agriculture guides policy makers to identify practical actions that governments can take to improve farmers’ resilience to future climate change and to avoid sending signals supporting practices that increase exposure to climate change risks.

Mitigation practices • Agricultural activities are responsible for about 24% of global GHG emissions (including deforestation) and could thus take part in the global mitigation effort. A Review of the Literature on the Cost-Effectiveness of Greenhouse Gas Mitigation Measure for Agriculture identifies a number of potential mitigation practices in the agricultural sector, several of which appear to be highly cost-effective across OECD countries.

Climate smart agriculture • Despite a growing recognition of the need to simultaneously pursue productivity growth, climate change adaptation and mitigation, these objectives continue to be approached in isolation. The OECD workshop Coherent Policies for Climate Smart Agriculture will initiate and facilitate a discussion regarding the consistency of the signals sent by public policies regarding those three objectives.
