Select countries in Asia-Pacific
In 2020-2021, in response to the COVID 19 pandemic, governments in Select countries in Asia-Pacific have committed at least USD 298.62 billion to supporting different energy types through new or amended policies, according to official government sources and other publicly available information. These public money commitments include:
- At least USD 79.83 billion for unconditional fossil fuels through 101 policies (63 quantified and 38 unquantified)
- At least USD 40.50 billion for conditional fossil fuels through 21 policies (15 quantified and 6 unquantified)
- At least USD 15.09 billion for unconditional clean energy through 109 policies (71 quantified and 38 unquantified)
- At least USD 73.87 billion for conditional clean energy through 62 policies (46 quantified and 16 unquantified)
- At least USD 89.34 billion for other energy through 44 policies (21 quantified and 23 unquantified)
By energy type, Select countries in Asia-Pacific committed at least USD 42.48 billion to oil and gas (at least USD 41.59 billion to unconditional oil and gas and at least USD 892.14 million to conditional oil and gas).
In addition, Select countries in Asia-Pacific committed at least USD 73.12 billion to coal (at least USD 34.78 billion to unconditional coal and at least USD 38.34 billion to conditional coal).
Further, no public money commitments identified for hydrogen based on fossil fuels.
Finally, Select countries in Asia-Pacific committed at least USD 3.69 billion to multiple fossil fuels (at least USD 3.16 billion to unconditional multiple fossil fuels and at least USD 535.03 million to conditional multiple fossil fuels).
A considerably larger amount of public money committed to supporting the economy and people of Select countries in Asia-Pacific through monetary and fiscal policies in response to the crisis may also benefit different elements of the energy sector. However, these values are not available from official legislation and statements and therefore are not included in the database. Meanwhile, in addition to monetary and fiscal measures, the database lists other policies and regulations that can also provide benefits to producers and consumers of different energy types.
These public money commitments are additional to many other government policies that had existed to support different energy types before the COVID19 pandemic.

The transition to electric vessels between Saaremaa and the mainland is planned in order to reduce the environmental impact of maritime transport. From September 2020 ferry Tõll has been the first hybrid passenger vessel in Estonia. Its batteries allow partial travel on electricity, which reduces the amount of diesel used and minimizes air pollution. The batteries are expected to reduce diesel consumption by 20% thus also reducing CO2 emissions by 1600 tons per year. In addition to emissions, underwater noise and vibration levels are also reduced. | https://www.err.ee/1608211189/riik-muudab-uue-parvlaeva-tellimise-rahastust-ja-toob-selle-2024-liinile |

The original facility comprised two tranches – Tranche A of $600m and Tranche B of $300m. Tranche A will be increased by $400m (taking it to $1b) and Tranche B will be increased by $200m (taking it to $500m). The existing effective interest rates on the facility are currently between 7% and 8% on tranche A and around 9% per annum for tranche B. The new interest rate structure is an all-in margin of 350 basis points (comprising 100 basis point line fee and 250 basis point margin) for Tranche A and an all-in margin of 500 basis points (comprising 100 basis point line fee and 400 basis point margin) for Tranche B. This would result in a total interest rate of approximately 3.80% (using a reference base rate of around 0.3%) for Tranche A and 5.30% for Tranche B (using the same reference base rate of around 0.3%). The agreement also includes a 1% step-up in the Tranche A and Tranche B all-in margins from 29 October 2021. This is a similar feature to the existing facility, albeit with the timing of the step-up adjusted to reflect the new proposed timing of the capital raising. Another feature that has been retained is that if Tranche B is drawn on, then Tranche A will have the same interest margin as Tranche B. These features provide an incentive on Air NZ to minimise use of the facility by seeking out other means of reducing cash expenditure." | https://www.beehive.govt.nz/release/government-backs-air-new-zealand-trans-tasman-bubble-opens |

This is a major announcement which has important repercussions for other countries dependent on coal financing. This could lead to a USD 50 billion slash in investments and a significant greening of China's belt and road initiative while forcing coal financiers such as the Bank of China to set up a timetable to withdraw from the sector. That being said, the exact details of the announcement remain to be set, including the timetable for the exit, the eligibility and the separation between public and private financing. Three days after Xi's speech, the Bank of China declared it would no longer provide financing for new coal mining and power projects outside China from the last quarter of 2021. | https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/chinas-overseas-coal-power-retreat-could-wipe-out-50-bln-investment-2021-09-22/ https://www.reuters.com/business/sustainable-business/bank-china-stop-financing-new-coal-mining-power-projects-overseas-q4-2021-09-24/ |

The project shall improve availability of fertilizer to farmers thereby boosting development of eastern region and will save transport subsidy for supply of urea in eastern part of the country. It would assist in reducing Urea imports to the tune of 12.7 LMT per annum leading to savings in foreign exchange. The project will also give a boost to 'Make in India' initiative and AtmaNirbhar' campaign and would help development of infrastructure like roads, railways water, etc. providing major boost to economy in the eastern part of the country including promoting ancillary industry. The project will also provide New business opportunity in form of ancillary industries in the catchment area of the project. Coal gasification plants are strategically important as coal prices are non-volatile and coal is abundantly available. Talcher plant shall also reduce dependence on important Natural Gas for production of urea leading to reduction in LNG import bill.

So when Meridian provided electricity savings worth "well in excess" of $60 million a year in October 2020, that choice is substantively influenced by Government strategy. The Government is also presently involved in a regional "just transitions" process, largely in anticipation of the eventual shutdown of Tiwai smelter, most likely during the 2020s.

That sector in of itself is responsible for twice the emissions of the EU carbon market, until now the world’s biggest. The ETS scheme does not put a cap on carbon emissions though. Rather, it imposes carbon intensity limits for every unit of electricity a power plant generates. Operators whose plants are below the benchmark will be able to sell their carbon credits and those that go beyond the threshold will need to buy additional credits. | https://www.climatechangenews.com/2021/01/07/china-launches-worlds-largest-carbon-market-power-sector/ |

According to the recent document, the government provided 53.4 billion RMB to local governments for encouraging their fiscal spending on the renovation of old urban residential communities. This spending encourages some green investments, such as the Energy-saving improvement on old buildings and the installation of charging stations . Since only an unquantified part of the renovation programme is linked to clean energy, this measure is classified here as "other energy". | http://www.gov.cn/xinwen/2020-07/21/content_5528678.htm Accessed 29 July 2020 |
