1 Understanding INDCs Overview of the MILES Project Thomas Spencer, IDDRI [And the whole MILES consortium!] Institut du Développement Durable et des Relations Internationales 41 rue du Four Paris - France

2 Overview of the MILES project Country EU/Coordination China India Brazil Japan EU USA Global Team IDDRI Tsinghua University, Renmin University, Energy Research Institute TERI, Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad COPPE RITE, NIES E3 Lab - NTUA PNNL, SDSN PIK, PBL, IIASA, CCMC Understanding implications of 2015 for national and aggregate trajectories Improving modelling capacities in developing and developed countries Better integration of global and national scenarios Model improvements

3 Why try to understand the INDCs at granular level? Distinction between INDCs and INDC scenarios: INDCs: headline targets and ambitions (often limited information) INDC scenarios: detailed, internally coherent, credible explorations of pathways towards achieving INDCs (based on national policy visions, expert judgement, modelling, structured accounting frameworks,) Why? How is just as important as how much Derive policy relevant information: size of future markets, key areas for policy efforts, gaps in policy efforts implied by INDCs Detailed understanding of national circumstances and multiple indicators of understanding Credibility, feasibility and transparency

4 Methodology Common data template Drivers: GDP, population, sectoral activity levels Emissions: energy + industrial CO2, all Kyoto gases, CO2 by sector Energy production and demand by sector and fuel Other indicators as appropriate National teams submit data based on an INDC scenario implementing as closely as possible the INDC + national policy vision, explored within the available accounting + modelling framework Validation, presentation and sensitivity analysis

5 tco2/tj An example of preliminary results - Japan Electricity mix and carbon intensity, 2010 and % % 80% 100 Other Other renewables Biomass 70% 80 Hydro 60% Solar 50% 60 Wind 40% Nuclear 30% 40 Oil 20% 10% 20 Gas w/o CCS Coal w CCS Coal w/o CCS 0% NIES INDC scenario 2030 RITE INDC scenario 0 Carbon intensity of electricity production (right axis)

9 Co-benefits Starting from the estimated greenhouse gas or alternatively CO 2 emission reductions implied by the INDCs, co-benefits, synergies and trade-offs will be estimated for the year Two dimensions will be explored: (1) energy trade and independence, (2) local air pollution.

10 NIES INDC Enhanced Action Low-Nuclear NIES INDC Enhanced Action Low-Nuclear Fuel import bills (billion USD 2013 ) Import dependency (%) An example of indicative results - Japan % 75% 75% 79% 41% 41% 46% 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% Natural gas Coal % 30% Oil 50 20% 10% Import dependency 0 0%

11 Understanding aggregate effects In the energy-economy model REMIND with 11 regions, INDC emission targets implemented regionally via carbon prices and/or more granular policy representations LU CO2 emissions are analysed with the MAgPIE model, used as exogeneous inputs in REMIND scenarios Four scenarios: Base: Business-as-usual without climate policies INDC: INDC targets until 2030 and extrapolation thereafter INDC-2 C: INDC targets until 2030, 2 C compatible carbon price after C: 2 C compatible carbon price starting in 2020

12 Example of preliminary results

13 Example of preliminary results

14 Preliminary conclusions Granularity is important for understanding implications of INDCs INDCs, although more transparent than CPH pledges, do not provide all information needed - hence need to look at INDC scenarios Initial analysis suggests that INDCs do imply an acceleration of climate action in major economies compared to pre-paris trends Particularly in the electricity sector massive growth of renewables And in energy efficiency Question-marks around whether required post 2030 technology and policy options are being adequately prepared (electrification, industrial emissions, CCS, carbon pricing, etc) INDCs seem likely to lead to a significant deviation from BAU, but not coherent with an optimal 2 degrees trajectory Key elements for the future: dynamism and focused future commitments/cooperation
