Low Carbon Energy International Parliamentary Conference on Climate Change Professor Jim Skea Research Director, UK Energy Research Centre Park Plaza, Westminster Bridge, London 15 July 2010

 Decarbonisation: the big picture  Power sector  Transport  Bringing it all together

The decarbonisation story… Reducing power sector emissions: Renewables (Wind, solar, tidal and marine, biomass), nuclear, CCS Reducing power sector emissions: Renewables (Wind, solar, tidal and marine, biomass), nuclear, CCS Reducing heat emissions: Energy efficiency Behaviour change Electric heat (e.g. heat pumps, storage heating) Biomass boilers CCS in industry Reducing heat emissions: Energy efficiency Behaviour change Electric heat (e.g. heat pumps, storage heating) Biomass boilers CCS in industry Reducing transport emissions: Fuel efficiency Electric/plug-in hybrids Sustainable Bio fuels Reducing transport emissions: Fuel efficiency Electric/plug-in hybrids Sustainable Bio fuels Application of power to transport and heat Source: Committee on Climate Change

Decarbonising power Therefore we need to significantly decarbonise electricity generation by 2030 The electrification of other sectors will see demand increase in 2020s and 2030s Source: Committee on Climate Change

Generic options for reducing CO 2 efficiency renewables nuclear fossil fuels with carbon capture and storage bio-energy behaviour

Renewables

Global wind capacity Source: Global Wind Energy Council

Costs of generating power Source: ExxonMobil

Integrating low carbon power  We built our grids, markets and regulatory systems for coal and gas generation  Need arrangements for low carbon energy that has:  high capital costs  low running costs  We need to cope with intermittent renewable energy
