This shows in the uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) and the enhancement of carbon sinks. However, the current administration are sending worrying signals that the full implementation of the climate policies and measures necessary to meet Costa Rica’s own targets could be deterred.</b></p><p data-block-key="1ckek"><b>Key electric public transportation projects have been on pause or have been downscaled in ambition. The oil moratorium bill also faces challenges, as President Chaves has announced his opposition to it, along with his intention to explore Costa Rica’s fossil fuel reserves. Despite these recent developments, the CAT still rates Costa Rica’s climate targets and policies as “Almost sufficient”.</b></p><p data-block-key="4reih">The most important climate policy in Costa Rica is its National Decarbonisation Plan (NDP), which sets out economy-wide policies and actions to meet its net zero target. While Costa Rica had regularly published updates on the implementation of the NDP, the most recent iteration of the report (from 2022) only evaluated progress up to 2021. Some of the most significant goals of the first implementation phase that were considered ‘at risk’ of not being achieved, such as the electrified rail projects, are still under scrutiny by the current government. If this trend persists, Costa Rica's chances of meeting its 2030 emissions targets becomes increasingly unlikely.</p><p data-block-key="b0u5k">Between 2015 and 2022, Costa Rica generated nearly 100% of its electricity from renewables, mainly hydropower. This decreased to 95% in 2023 due to low rainfall conditions. This decreasing trend escalated in 2024, with a quarter of Costa Rica’s electricity generation coming from fossil-fuel-powered thermal plants in April, although this has dropped to under 10% as of July. To sustain renewable electricity production, Costa Rica needs to take steps to diversify its electricity mix, especially by expanding solar and wind capacity.</p><p data-block-key="bpmeu">Costa Rica has reached a considerable national market share of EVs, making up 12% of total vehicle sales in 2023. It has also advanced the deployment of key infrastructure to support its growing EV fleet, although the installation rate of fast charging points has not kept up with EV growth. On the other hand, the steps to electrify public transport and promote modal shift have either made little progress or have been scaled down in ambition, with public transport projects decreasing their planned coverage or not running as a fully electric unit (i.e. diesel-hybrids).</p><p data-block-key="6dqg4">Costa Rica could set itself on a firm 1.5°C-compatible trajectory by considering the following actions:</p><ul><li data-block-key="djuom"><b>Setting a conditional NDC target</b> which also outlines the international support necessary to achieve it.</li><li data-block-key="4eb3t"><b>Ratifying the oil moratorium</b>, originally declared in 2002, to enshrine the bill into law and ensure that Costa Rica does not become an oil producer.</li><li data-block-key="70bkp"><b>Continue to monitor and report progress on the implementation of the National Decarbonisation Plan</b> to ensure that its goals are achieved by Costa Rica’s current policies and mitigation actions.</li><li data-block-key="8nvcd"><b>Diversify its renewable energy portfolio</b> to reduce overreliance on hydropower for electricity generation, which is heavily affected by weather conditions.</li></ul><p data-block-key="bv1sc">Since the last CAT update, there have also been some positive developments in Costa Rica’s climate policies, including:</p><ul><li data-block-key="eqf45">A rapid increase in EV sales.</li><li data-block-key="67ves">The continued development of new policies and initiatives (e.g. NAMAs) to address emissions in the agriculture sector, which accounts for a notable share of Costa Rica’s emissions.</li><li data-block-key="2arbd">The biofuel mandate will require gas stations to incorporate 10% ethanol into their gasoline and is a positive sign that some main objectives of the National Decarbonisation Plan are being met, provided it does not result in emissions increases elsewhere.</li></ul></div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="content-section content-section--has-left-side"> <div class="container"> <div class="content-section__left-side"> <h3 id="section__description-of-cat-ratings" data-section-header-expandable data-content-target=".content-section__content" data-section-target=".content-section--has-left-side" class="collapsed"> Description of CAT ratings </h3> </div> <div class="content-section__content"> <div class="content-block"><p data-block-key="xztiw">The CAT rates each country’s targets and policies against (1) its <a href="https://climateactiontracker.org/methodology/cat-rating-methodology/fair-share/">fair share</a> contribution to climate change mitigation considering a range of equity principles including responsibility, capability and equality, and (2) what is technically and economically feasible using <a href="https://climateactiontracker.org/methodology/cat-rating-methodology/modelled-domestic-pathways/">modelled domestic pathways</a> which in absence of a better method are based on global least-cost climate change mitigation.</p><p data-block-key="6a647">Comparing a country’s fair share ranges and modelled domestic pathways provides insights into which governments should provide climate finance and which should receive it.

Efforts to enshrine the fossil fuel moratorium into law have also faced challenges during the legislative process. Costa Rica should focus on expanding the use of its many renewable energy sources instead of increasing its dependence on fossil fuels.</p><p data-block-key="fuh31">If Costa Rica wants to maintain its 1.5°C compatibility, it should ensure that the measures under the National Decarbonisation Plan continue to be implemented and should also avoid increased fossil fuel use through abandoning the moratorium.

To meet the emissions trajectory outlined in its LTS, the LULUCF sink would have to more than double compared to current levels.
