GENEBRA, 2 de fevereiro de 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Mercuria participará como investidor âncora num novo fundo de Crédito de Carbono, lançado hoje pela International Finance Corporation.

Este novo fundo, cujo valor é de até EUR150 milhões, será um instrumento para a compra de créditos de carbono, para ajudar a reduzir emissões de gases de efeito estufa, ampliar os mercados de carbono e aumentar o acesso a financiamento para projetos que promovam crescimento econômico favorável ao meio ambiente. Mercuria Energy e a Shell Trading comprometeram-se com a iniciativa como investidores âncoras. A IFC investirá até EUR15 milhões na IFC Post-2012 Carbon Facility e mobilizará o restante dos recursos de companhias européias de energia e usinas.

A unidade fará a compra antecipada de Reduções de Emissões Certificadas que deverão ser produzidas entre 2013 e 2020, em projetos ou diretamente financiados pela IFC ou por bancos locais financiados pela IFC. Isto permitirá que os projetos possam continuar a beneficiar-se do financiamento de carbono durante um período de incerteza das políticas na abordagem para o final do primeiro período de compromisso sob o Protocolo de Kyoto em 2012. A unidade fornecerá um fluxo de receita de carbono de longo prazo e alta qualidade, e aumentará as opções de financiamento para projetos que reduzam as emissões.

Andrei Marcu, chefe de Assuntos Regulatórios, Meio Ambiente e Mudanças Climáticas do Mercuria Energy, disse: "Investir em reduções pós 2012, neste momento, é uma expressão da confiança do Mercuria no crescente papel para os mercados de carbono no tratamento das mudanças climáticas depois de 2012, e também uma grande oportunidade de negócios. Nós sentimos que investir com a IFC nos proporciona um parceiro sólido na navegação destes novos mares".

Mohsen Khalil, diretor global do Climate Business Group da IFC, disse: "Os investimentos da IFC nos mercados de carbono, num tempo de incertezas regulatórias, é um passo importante que permitirá às empresas do setor privado continuar o desenvolvimento de projetos que cortam emissões de gases de efeito estufa. Apoiar o financiamento de carbono é uma parte central dos esforços da IFC para ajudar ao setor privado a tratar dos desafios e capitalizar as oportunidades apresentadas pelas mudanças climáticas".

Slavko Preocanin, presidente da Shell Energy Europe, disse: "Os mercados de carbono têm um papel vital a desempenhar no tratamento das mudanças climáticas. A Shell integralmente apóia a continuidade da expansão de projetos de Mecanismos de Desenvolvimento Limpo (Clean Development Mechanism), seguindo ao final do período do compromisso de Kyoto, em 2012. Nosso foco é no apoio à comercialização de projetos com estruturas inovadoras, permitindo que eles reduzam os gases de estufa e ajudem a mitigar a mudança climática".

Combater as mudanças climáticas em países em desenvolvimento é uma prioridade estratégica para a IFC. A entidade planeja dobrar seus investimentos relacionados ao clima em pelo menos 20% de seus compromissos gerais dentro de dois anos. Os gastos da IFC Advisory Services com as mudanças climáticas também devem para dobrar na mesma proporção e prazo semelhante.
