These exchanges allow countries to actually see green growth in action and exchange knowledge first-hand with the implementers. Implementing inclusive green growth is complex and multi-dimensional, but the potential rewards are enormous. Countries of course need to tailor national strategies to their circumstances, but by sharing its green growth knowledge, Korea can help other nations avoid infrastructure investment “lock-in” and help some to leap frog into green infrastructure and development. In some countries, including Turkey and Indonesia, the knowledge exchanges have good potential to grow into major long-term engagements helping those coun- tries to adopt nationwide green growth approaches in their economic planning. In other cases, the Korean knowledge and funding is sup- porting efforts with potential to scale and grow globally.

The KGGTF coordinates a $40 million fund (2013-2017) for green growth projects. In partnerships with the WBG, KGGTF supports knowledge activities that help WBG client countries plan and implement green growth strategies, initiatives, and investments.

Korea Green Growth Partnership Project Selection and Criteria Proposal Selection Initially, at the request of the Sustainable Development Network (SDN) Council (as of FY14), the Urban, Transport, and ICT Sector Boards led the selection process for the activities and countries. The Urban and Transport Boards collected and reviewed proposals and selected the countries and types of activities for implementation in each country. Proposal submission to the KGGTF Secretariat is open to the entire WBG, but the Secretariat particularly encourages IFC submissions since green growth implementation works best when there is cooperation between the private and public sectors.

Korea Green Growth Partnership A NEW PARADIGM FOR Greener growth During the fiscal year 2014, the KGGTF awarded about $7 million USD for 23 green growth initiatives in urban, transport, and climate resilience. KGGTF year-1 projects supported climate change mitigation, and promoted green growth knowledge sharing and technology implementations, helping WBG client countries progress from recognition of problems to actual solutions. The following are brief summaries of KGGTF Year-1 projects, organized by theme, sector, scale, and country.

KGGP Progress Report 2O13-14 43 SECTION Five years to green growth Gwangju’s climate plan has made a huge positive dif- ference for its citizens—and the world is taking notice. “Green” innovations in the city’s 2008 to 2013 plan have radically improved the quality of life for the areas 1.5 billion residents, saving the city more than $1.1 billion annually while decreasing pollution, food waste, and energy use— and boosting economic growth and shared prosperity. Gwangju’s city plan replaced unsustainable approaches with cross cutting, multi-sector innovations. Renewable energy and food waste powers this sprawling eco-friendly urban area, reducing emissions and transforming landfills into revenue-generating green spaces, while also creating jobs. The city also uses a bottom-up “carbon point cards” ap- proach that creates economic incentives for households to decrease resource consumption. This “carbon banking” approach helps families slash household energy spending, propelling participation to more than 280,000 Gwangju households in 2012, up from around 20,000 when the program started in 2008. About 54% of participating households reduced electricity, gas, and water consump- tion. In the process, CO2 emissions plummeted by a huge 84.2 kilotons. Project leadership is expecting all Gwangju households to join the program in 2015.
