Assessment of the Post-Paris Agreement Era

The study analyzed bilateral climate finance from 2016 to 2020 for ten countries with low governance scores, finding a total disbursement of US$1.3 billion. The funding was heavily skewed toward mitigation (92%) and dominated by Japan, which provided US$1 billion specifically for natural gas-fired power plants in Uzbekistan.

• Between 2016 and 2020, ten countries with low governance scores received a total of US$1.3 billion in disbursed bilateral climate finance, with the vast majority (92 percent) allocated to mitigation, 7 percent to adaptation, and 1 percent to both.
• Japan was the primary provider of bilateral climate finance to the studied group, contributing US$1 billion to support natural gas-fired electric power plants in Uzbekistan.
• Regarding financial instruments, development-focused loans were the most common cumulatively, while grants were the most common instrument when measured on a per-country basis.
