What we are facing The tipping point for runaway climate change is a 2°C increase in temperature Warming during the past 100 years was 0.74°C, with most of the warming occurring in the past 50 years 2010 was the end of the warmest decade in history, with last year tied as hottest.

Current Commitments at the UNFCCC could lead to: 4 degrees
The challenge is fueling growth without being locked in to high emission technologies Investments in low carbon technilogies will make sense if they are linked to a long term strategy
the energy [r]evolution = Renewable Energy + Energy Efficiency
The five key principles behind this shift: Implement renewable solutions Respect the natural limits of the environment Phase out dirty, unsafe and unsustainable energy sources Create greater equity in the use of resources Decouple economic growth from the consumption of fossil fuels

ENABLERS
Enablers Strong Signal from the Government –Towards low carbon growth Ambitious, visionary but realistic target 50% RE by 2020 Harmonize policies
Greenpeace Report: Philippine Roadmap to 50% Renewable Energy by 2020
Energy Efficiency –Establish a clear policy with strong targets on EE –Provide priority to EE investments –Challenge entrenched business models Provide incentives for energy companies to reduce demand Enablers
EE TechnologiesSavings Efficient Lighting20% - 70% Efficient Chillers20% - 50% Solar Cooling30% - 40% High Efficiency Motors3% - 15% Variable Speed Drive25% - 60% Efficient Air Compressors20% - 40% Efficient Transformers10% - 20% Building Management System20% - 40% Trigeneration/ Cogeneration5% - 15%
Absorptive Capacity –Investment in education –Create training opportunities –Develop home grown RE businesses Enablers
OBSTACLES
Obstacles Continuing development of Fossil Fuels –Coal investments the major source of proposed large energy investments in the near term –Of the US5.25 billion potential investments that the Aquino government secured from Japan and the US the past year, US3.6 billion are for coal - Sual Calaca, Pagbilao and Masinloc
