CNPE define metas para o Renovabio de 2024 a 2033
O Conselho Nacional de Política Energética (CNPE) definiu, após consulta pública, as metas da Política Nacional de Biocombustíveis (Renovabio) para os créditos de descarbonização (Cbio) nos próximos dez anos.
A meta para 2024 será de 38,78 milhões de Cbios, queda de 24pc em relação à previsão original de 50,8 milhões. As metas de Cbios de 2023 foram de 37,47 milhões.
As metas anuais para o Renovabio continuarão crescendo até atingir 71,29 milhão de Cbios, em 2033.
No programa, cada Cbio gerado com a venda de biocombustível representa uma tonelada de CO2 evitada. O programa estabelece metas anuais de redução de emissões de gases de efeito estufa para as distribuidoras de combustíveis. As metas são alcançadas por meio da aquisição de Cbios comercializados por produtores de biocombustíveis.

G20 seeks to ease climate funding to cities
G20 seeks to ease climate funding to cities
Sao Paulo, 21 May (Argus) — Climate funds need to make it easier for countries and especially individual cities to access resources, a G20 working group said in Brazil today. Experts, representatives of G20 member countries and financial organizations gathered in Rio de Janeiro to discuss ways to leverage financing to face extreme climate events. The two-day event was hosted by the G20 — which Brazil presides over this year — the country's finance minister, global network Finance in Common (FiCS) and the Brazilian NGO climate and society institute (iCS). Delegates agreed that climate funds — especially the green climate fund, the adaptation fund, the global environment facility fund and the special climate change fund, which will hold a combined $30bn in the next five years — need to allow better access for cities to combat climate change. That means easing bureaucracies and identifying bottlenecks, according to Ivan Oliveira, deputy secretary for sustainable development at Brazil's finance ministry. Guaranteeing funding for climate projects can take many years, Oliveira said. But "climate change requires climate funds to deliver quickly," he added. FiCS' chairman Remy Rioux — who is also the chief executive of France's development agency — pointed to the different accreditation processes for different climate funds as hindering climate financing. A single accreditation process would ease access, he added. "We will do our best to find innovative financial solutions for climate resilience and resilient infrastructure," he said. Climate projects should also be able to tap into multiple funds more easily, Oliveira said. Rioux also called for the creation of an international guarantee fund to back individual national banks should they need resources to combat climate change. Additionally, local governments should be able to deal directly with climate funds, instead of having to work through the federal government, he added. The director of Brazil's development bank Nelson Barbosa also noted that a lack of financial guarantees and exchange rate volatility hinder banks and country's ability to access climate funds. The G20 working group will present a report with suggestions to address these issues in July, in Belem — the capital of northern Para state — Oliveira said. The city will also host Cop30 in 2025. Rio Grande do Sul Brazil's federal government is discussing a line of credit to southern Rio Grande do Sul state, which has been hit by heavy rainfall and historic flooding since late April, Barbosa said. "A special line of credit will be needed for reconstruction," he said. "We already have lines for adaptation and mitigation and now we have to think about lines to take care of losses and damages. Reality has arrived, and development banks have to deal with the effects of the climate." But he did not give further specifics on the measures. On Monday, President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva called for the creation of an international fund backed by "people that pollute the planet" to aid Rio Grande do Sul. He has in the past called on rich nations to fund global efforts to mitigate climate change. Rains in Rio Grande do Sul have left 161 people dead, 85 missing and over 581,600 people displaced, according to the state's civil defense. Rebuilding the state will cost over R19bn ($3.7bn), according to the state government. By Lucas Parolin Send comments and request more information at feedback@argusmedia.com Copyright © 2024.

UK will not bank ‘surplus’ from third carbon budget
UK will not bank ‘surplus’ from third carbon budget
London, 21 May (Argus) — The UK overachieved on emissions reduction targets under its third carbon budget, but it will not carry forward the emissions ‘surplus' to the next carbon budget, the government said today. A carbon budget is a cap on emissions over a certain period. The UK's third carbon budget covered 2018-22, while the fourth carbon budget covers 2023-27. UK emissions over 2018-22 stood at 2.15bn t/CO2 equivalent (CO2e) — 319mn t/CO2e below the third carbon budget cap. Emissions on average over the period were 47pc lower than emissions in 1990 — the baseline year. "By the end of the period in 2022, UK net greenhouse gas emissions were 50pc lower than base year emissions", the government said. The country is also on track to overachieve during the fourth carbon budget, it added. "The government decision not to carry forward the surplus keeps the UK within its ambitious target with no additional headroom to emit greenhouse gases over the coming years", the government said. The UK has made progress on cutting emissions, including phasing out coal. But the surplus was largely down to external factors, including the Covid-19 pandemic, the independent advisory Climate Change Committee (CCC) found previously. The UK has a legally-binding target to reach net zero emissions by 2050. It also has targets to cut emissions by 68pc by 2030 and 77pc by 2035, both from the 1990 base level. The CCC warned in February that the government should not carry forward any surplus from the third carbon budget, to avoid weakening action on decarbonisation.

ScanOcean to supply MGO-HVO blend in Sweden
ScanOcean to supply MGO-HVO blend in Sweden
London, 21 May (Argus) — Swedish bunker firm ScanOcean will supply a B30 marine biodiesel blend made of marine gasoil (MGO) and hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) by truck at all Swedish ports. The B30 blend will comprise 70pc MGO and 30pc HVO and meet ISO 8217:2017 MGO specifications, according to ScanOcean. The biofuel component will not contain any fatty acid methyl ester (Fame) and the blend will reportedly be accompanied by ISCC-EU certification and a proof of sustainability (PoS) document. ScanOcean added that they will supply the physical blend but that the HVO component will be sourced from the EU. The B30 blend will achieve a 25pc reduction of CO2 emissions on a well-to-wake basis when compared with conventional MGO, according to the Swedish supplier.

States have duty to cut GHGs, protect oceans: Court
States have duty to cut GHGs, protect oceans: Court
London, 21 May (Argus) — States that are party to the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (Unclos) have an obligation to reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to protect oceans, the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea said today in an advisory opinion. The opinion was requested by the Commission of Small Island States on Climate Change and International Law in December 2022. The tribunal found unanimously that states party to Unclos "have the specific obligation to take all measures necessary to ensure that anthropogenic GHG emissions under their jurisdiction or control do not cause damage by pollution to other states and their environment". The group of small island states welcomed the outcome, and said they saw it as a victory. Small island states are extremely vulnerable to the effects of climate change. Unclos has 169 parties — including the EU, China and almost all G20 nations. But the US — the second-highest emitter — is not a party to the convention. Countries must submit new national climate plans — known as nationally determined contributions (NDCs) — by early next year to UN climate body the UNFCCC. "Today's outcome will be instrumental to push the countries most responsible for the climate crisis to ramp up their ambition", lawyer at environmental law firm ClientEarth Lea Main-Klingst said. "And because business must follow where governments lead, companies and financial institutions are going to feel a knock-on effect from this development, too", Main-Klingst added. Similar cases, focused on climate change, are awaiting an advisory opinion or ruling from various international courts. The Inter-American Court is hearing arguments on how climate change is affecting human rights this month, while the International Court of Justice will consider a similar question later this year. The European Court of Human Rights ruled last month that signatories to the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) must protect their citizens from the "serious adverse effects of climate change", in a landmark ruling for climate litigation. The ocean is the world's biggest carbon sink, capturing emissions and much of the excess heat generated by GHGs. Sea surface temperatures have hit record highs in recent months, while the global temperature was in 2023 on average 1.45°C higher than pre-industrial levels , the World Meteorological Organisation said earlier this year.
