Kiribati Enhanced NDC, Nationally Determined Contribution from Kiribati in 2023

The Environment Act requires that the roles and responsibilities of the Department of environment with regard to climate change are to be prescribed by regulation. Regulation may relate to licencing and compliance; waste management and pollution prevention; and biodiversity conservation. The statute also requires carbon footprint scheme to be administered and listed in the regulation.

This plan outlines fifteen potential GHG mitigation opportunities - nine of which in the transport sector and six of which in energy efficiency sector – and estimated financing sources. The opportunities identified in the transport system include bicycle/e-bike financing initiative, biofuels blends in land and maritime transport, multi-model transit initiatives, electric vehicle network development, whole of lifecycle vehicle program, and land transport infrastructure upgrade for non-motorized transport. The opportunities identified in the energy efficiency sector include strengthening and expanding the standards and labelling programme for appliances, and capacity building for integrated energy planning and energy statistics.&nbsp;&nbsp;
