Brazil Climate and Ecological Transformation Investment Platform (BIP) - Strengthening Brazil’s climate finance and transition capacities

The proposal seeks USD 999,998.93 to create a centralized Secretariat for the Brazil Climate and Ecological Transformation Investment Platform (BIP), hosted by the National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES). The BIP aims to bridge the gap between climate-positive projects and investors to help Brazil meet its NDC target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 53.1% by 2030. The project focuses on three priority areas: Nature-based Climate Solutions, Industry and Mobility, and Energy. Key activities include developing a project pipeline, creating innovative financial mechanisms, and establishing ICT infrastructure to facilitate public-private collaboration.

• Brazil has committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 53.1% by 2030 compared to 2005 levels and aims for climate neutrality by 2050 or earlier.
• The primary source of greenhouse gas emissions in Brazil is Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU), accounting for 66.5% of emissions as of 2020.
• Brazil faces significant climate vulnerabilities, with approximately 35% of municipalities (1,942) at significant risk from extreme climate events, and half of all municipalities highly or very vulnerable to geohydrological disasters.
• Climate finance in Brazil is currently fragmented and heavily reliant on domestic sources, which provided 95% of the US$ 6.3 billion per year aligned with climate objectives.
• The Brazil Climate and Ecological Transformation Investment Platform (BIP) will be hosted by the National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES) to leverage its institutional capacity and existing partnerships.
• The BIP will prioritize projects in three main areas: Nature-based Climate Solutions, Industry and Mobility, and Energy, based on alignment with the Ecological Transformation Plan (ETP) and the Climate Plan.
• Brazil estimates it will need approximately USD 10 billion annually to meet its 2030 mitigation and adaptation goals.
• The proposal identifies three critical barriers to climate action: limited coordination due to the lack of a BIP Secretariat, fragmented project pipelines with a lack of innovative funding, and limited private sector engagement.
• Vulnerable groups, including women and Indigenous Peoples, face disproportionate climate risks; for example, Indigenous groups manage 13% of Brazil's land, including critical parts of the Amazon rainforest.
