1. A key step in turning a country’s climate action aspirations into reality is identifying short-term and long-term projects/programmes and investment priorities—strategic initiatives that will help realize a paradigm shift in achieving low-emission and climate-resilient development, As part of establishing a Strategic Framework with the Green Climate Fund (GCF), the National Designated Authority (NDA)/Focal Point (FP) may wish to initiate a country programme and request the Fund to support its development through the GCF Readiness and Preparatory Support Programme.
The Project Profile Form is part of the NAB's interim Green Climate Fund Project Appraisal process. Project proponents wishing to apply for the Green Climate Fund should fill out this form.
Before filling out this form, there are a few important things to note:
The aim of this booklet is to provide a practi-cal guide to assist government, civil society private sector partners, and prospective na-tional implementing entities (NIEs) in Vanuatu to better understand the Green Climate Fund (GCF).
It is designed to provide an all-in-one guid-ance and analysis of the concept, process, relevant standards, frequently asked ques-tions related to planned GCF approaches in Vanuatu.
This document aims to provide an overview of:
This edition provides timely updates on the Green Climate Fund (GCF), both in terms of recent events and perational matters. We welcome any thoughts or suggestions on information to be included in the Partner Entities Update by writing to us at accreditation@gcfund.org.
The Department of Energy (DoE) is one of the Departments under the Ministry of Climate Change Adaptation, Meteorology, Geo-hazards, Energy, Environment and National Disaster Management Office. Its mandate is vested in Vanuatu’s National Energy Roadmap (NERM) and the activities, policies, programs and projects implemented by the Department all contribute to achieving the policy priorities and targets stipulated in the NERM. DoE’s role is beyond policy and legislative development for an effective energy sector.
Also called a Jet Stove, a Rocket Stove is an efficient and hot burning stove using small diameter wood fuel. Fuel is burned in a simple combustion chamber containing an insulated vertical chimney, which ensures almost complete combustion prior to the flames reaching the cooking surface.
Wood fuel is the oldest form of extracting heat energy and is still the most popular form of energy in the Pacific. However, because it is so readily available, we tend to use wood fuel inefficiently.
The regulated MEPSL products are enforced under the bill for Energy Efficiency of Electrical Appliances, Equipment and Lighting Products Act No 24 of 2016. Most energy effeicient appliances can sometimes cost more in purchasing, but will be more energy efficient and cost effectve over time due to using less electricity in its lifespan.
