“Most Americans and Europeans

believe that renewable energy will

have replaced most fossil energy by

2050. As the hard truths make clear,

this simply isn’t going to happen”Jeroen van der Veer, CEO of Shell, June 2007

“Every year, we don't even manage

to improve our energy efficiency to

keep up with wealth increases, let

alone to cut emissions”John Barrett, author of the SEI reports to both Defra

and WWF

Key question:

Is a fully sustainable

global energy system

possible by 2050 ?

“Every hour, we receive as much

energy from the sun as we use in a

year”

Moderate modal shift in the passenger transport sector

leads to moderation of car and aviation transport

> Urban and rural car transport per capita will decrease slightly, curbing recent

growth trends

– This will be a much stronger decrease in OECD regions

> Rail and bus/coach transport will benefit from the shift away from cars and

planes

Similarly, growth in freight transport is directed much

more strongly at rail than at road transport

> A re-prioritisation from truck to rail freight has been assumed

NB: Shipping freight is not represented as no activity forecasts for shipping were readily available. Shipping energy use was forecast based on a rate linked to, but lower than, the rate of GDP growth

outpace electricity demand growth by 2050

> By 2050 exploitation of renewable electricity sources will be widespread

– Renewable electricity will be so abundant that options will compete against each other even before 2050

Regional electricity grids need to be upgraded and

extended to be ready for RES power

> To equilibrate load patterns, electricity grids should be

well-connected regionally

Remove bottlenecks to distribution by

• increasing capacity and

• increasing range of transmission lines

Efforts to start now for results by 2030

> Beyond 2020 may require better grid stability

Re-focus R&D now to prepare our grids

• For ultra-high RES shares beyond 2030 all of the

following levers need to be employed:

1. Grid improvements

2. Demand side management

3. Storage

Note that to go beyond 60% supply-driven RES

share, large over- and/or storage capacities would

need to be built to provide peak loads0%

Biomass can provide a large share of industry

energy needs

> Remaining heating for industry process heat, primarily for steam generation, will mostly

be provided by renewable sources

– Biomass will take the largest share of this, providing ~65%

> In addition, biomass will provide some fuel needs in industry

– A residual need for fossil fuels remains, mainly for steel and cement production:

These production processes rely on the specific properties of traditional fuels.

Replacing these fuels will require the development and adoption of as yet

unavailable new technologies

Bioenergy is an important element of the energy supply

> Transport fuels;

especially:

– Long distance road

transport

– Aviation

– Shipping

> Industrial fuels;

especially:

– Applications that require

very high temperature

– Applications that require a

specific energy carrier (e.g.

gaseous fuel, solid fuel)

Bioenergy can fill energy demands where other renewables provide no or no complete alternative, e.g.:

Food security:

> Current agricultural cropland is excluded from

use for energy crops in the Scenario

> Yield growth is estimated to be 1% per year

based on literature

> Demand growth is based on:

– Scenario population growth numbers

– Scenario assumptions on constraint on per

capita consumption of animal products in diets

for 2050: on average ~110% of the current

value

> Conclusion: ~4% of current agricultural

cropland (63 Mha) was excluded from the

Scenario for meeting future food demand

– Demand growth can be met by yield increase in

2050

– In intermediate period yield increase is not

completely sufficient to meet growth in demand

– Maximum expansion needed at any point in

time is ~4% of current agricultural cropland

Most important sources used for this analysis:FAO, Agricultural Outlook 2009 – 2018FAO, World agriculture towards 2030/2050FAO, FAOSTAT, Statistics on primary crops and livestock equivalentUniversität Klagenfurt and PIK, 2009, Eating the Planet: Feeding and fuelling the world sustainably, fairly and humanely – a scoping study

This shortcoming can be met by ~4% expansion of agricultural cropland

Constraint on consumption of animal products allows global food

demand to be met with a minimum of land expansion

The methodology for assessing costs associated with

the Energy Scenario is similar for all sectors

Capacity changes / year

e.g. installed GW

Activity / year

e.g. produced GWh

Total activity over time from the Energy Scenario

OpEx / unit

e.g. € / GWh

Other assumptions

e.g. learning curves

CapEx / unit

e.g. € / GW

CapEx / year OpEx / year

Investment in buildings dominates until 2030, savings

from transport afterwards

> Net annual costs peak at 1,800 bn EUR

in 2025

> Net annual savings peak at 6,000 bn

EUR in 2050

> Dominant parameters:

– Transport investment assumptions

– Fuel price assumptions (+1% to

+4% annually)

– Efficiency improvements on the

demand side

> Uncertainties/Sensitivity:

– Learning rates

Global net costs will peak below 2% of GDP, and will turn to net

savings after 2035

> Net annual costs peak just below ~2%

in 2025, and turn into more than ~2%

annual savings worldwide in 2050

> CapEx peaks at ~3% in 2030, then

decreases to below ~1.5% in 2050

> Savings from saved energy rise

constantly to ~3.5% in 2050, with

increased growth after 2020

The Scenario also heavily reduces CO2 emissions

>In our vision, worldwide CO2 emissions from the energy system would

decrease by ~80%1 by 2050 vs 1990 levels

>Phasing in CCS from 2020 onwards would result in further emission

reductions in the later years

>NB: emission from renewable sources include lifecycle emissions from

biomass as well as the (low) emissions from hydropower1 These are ‘raw’ emissions. When correcting for the fact that a larger share of the remaining emissions are emitted by aviation, this reduces to ~75%.

Strong leadership is required to make this

transformation happen

* BAT = best available technology, for buildings this would mean near-zero energy-use

DemandSupply

Buildings Transport Industry

Setting consistent and ambitious frame-works

Incentives to achieve performance levelsof BAT*

in 5-10 yrs for all new stock

in 20-30 yrs for existing stock (retrofit)

“Top-runner” approach to appliances

Performance standards on fuel efficiency for all transport modes

Incentives to shift to rail, especially for freight

Incentives to achieve performance levels of BAT*

now for new plants

in 10-20 yrs for existing plants

Optimal recycling rates

Incentives to stimulate Industry R&D

Comprehensive, reliable and flexible support schemes to incentivise deployment of renewable energy technologies

Connection obligations for grid operators

Optimisation of planning processes

Incentives to stimulate grid infrastructure investments

Public invest-ments

Investment support for building retrofits

Investments into public transport, e.g. (electric) rail infrastructure

R&D into new production processes

Recycling infrastructure

R&D into dynamic grid stability and smart grids

Privateleadership

Incorporating highest performance levelsinto all building projects

Pushing the development and deployment of highest performancetransport modes

Incorporating highest performance levels into all new plants

Improving performance of existing plants with long-term vision
