Definition Reducing intensity of energy use includes: energy efficiency structural change in economy (producing and consuming less energy-intensive products) energy conservation

1 Global Perspective

Source: Historical US and global emissions data from Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center; US data from BP via Global Carbon Project. China emissions data are derived from revised total energy consumption data published in the 2007 China Statistical Yearbook using revised 1996 IPCC carbon coefficients by LBNL : ; BP IPCC. Annual Global CO 2 Emissions billion tonnes carbon dioxide China US Other Global Emissions

Between 1970 and 2004 global greenhouse gas emissions increased by 70%. Total GHG emissions Gt CO 2 eq/yr WEO 07 base case for 2030 has 55% increase from 2005 (increase of 25 Gt CO 2 eq/yr)

IPCC (WGIII) Estimates of Economically Feasible CO 2 eq/yr Reductions in 2030 by Sector * From Design to Win (2007), a project of several foundations led by the Hewlett Foundation in 2030 Total reductions Low: 13Gt/yr High 24Gt/y Constant emissions 25Gt/yr 6*4* 3* 2*

Annual Rate of Change in Energy/GDP for the World IEA (Energy/Purchasing Power Parity) and EIA (Energy/Market Exchange Rate) -4% -3% -2% -1% 0% 1% 2% IEA dataEIA data note: Russia not included until 1992 in IEA data and 1993 in EIA data - 1.3% Average = - 0.7%

Strategic Considerations Two crucial immediate actions needed –(1) energy efficiency, (2) land use, and (3) cost-effective low carbon (electricity) supply –Very aggressive RD&D, especially on zero-carbon electricity (including electricity storage) Much stronger government policies needed –Carbon tax (or cap and trade) –Rigorous policies are needed for all end-use sectors Efficiency and fuel economy standards, building codes and retrofit requirements, and expanded demand-side management (DSM) –Few countries address industrial sector Beyond energy efficiency: conservation and structural change –Change production processes (e.g., cement) –Change industrial output and consumption patterns –Lifestyle change

DivRev05 page 26 China has mounted an aggressive set of programs to reduce energy intensity by 20% from 2005 to 2010 It is likely to achieve a 15% reduction in energy intensity Because of large future CO 2 emissions of China, there is a strong case to be made for international support for China to reduce growth of emissions
