1 The global energy system to What should universities do? Jorgen Randers Professor Emeritus Center for Climate Strategy BI Norwegian Business School J Randers 1 First UNI SET Clustering Event NTNU, Trondheim 25 th February, 2016

2 The Limits to Growth (LTG): Twelve scenarios for the 21st century, warning against growth beyond the carrying capacity of small planet Earth. J Randers 2

3 One sad future: Resource crisis (LTG Sc 1) 3: Industrial output 5: Nonrenewable resources : Food output : Population : Pollution level Year 2100 Source: Meadows, Randers and Meadows, LTG 30 year update, 2004 J Randers 3

4 A better future: Sustainability (LTG Sc 9) 5 5: Nonrenewable resources : Food output 3: Industrial output : Population : Pollution level Year Source: Meadows, Randers and Meadows, LTG 30 year update, 2004 J Randers 4

7 How such forecasts can help you 1. Make a forecast of global energy system to 2052, assuming no extra-ordinary action 2. Identify the problems that are likely to arise over the decades ahead 3. Develop solutions to these problems, both technical and social 4. Try to sell these extra-ordinary solutions to society J Randers 7

16 Main conclusions from the 2052 forecast World population and economy will grow more slowly towards 2052 than most people expect - but still fast enough to trigger a climate crisis Consumption will stagnate because society will have to spend ever more labour and capital on repair and adaptation The short-term nature of man - reflected in the short term focus of democracy and capitalism - is the root cause of this development J Randers 16

17 A much better future is possible 1. Solving the climate challenge is not impossibly costly 2. It requires a shift of 2 % of the world s labor and capital from dirty to clean sectors 3. This solution will resisted by the incumbent workers and owners in the dirty sectors 4. And by those who dislike higher taxes and more regulation 5. The challenge is to find climate policies that also provide a short term benefit to a majority of the voters that is increases well-being in the short term J Randers 17

18 What should be done? - Ideally 1. Further slow population growth Introduce 1-child policy first in rich world 2. Cut CO2 emissions first in the rich world Ban the use of coal, oil and gas from Reduce poverty in the poor world Give a climate-friendly energy system to the poor 4. Reduce the ecological footprint of the rich world Legislate more compulsory vacation 5. Temper national short termism Establish supra-national institutions 6. Reduce the focus on income growth Establish increased well-being as the new goal J Randers 18

22 What can universities do? 1. Clarify the situation by studying the crucial assumptions that form the basis of any forecast to through multidisciplinary studies in a long-term perspective 2. Develop politically feasible solutions by identifying solutions that also provide a benefit to a majority of voters in the short term 3. Help save the world by accelerating the transformation of the global energy system which will be of crucial importance J Randers 22

23 What are the critical assumptions? 1. Average fertility will decline to 1,5 children per woman in The rate of growth of GDP per person will decline to zero when economy exceeds USD/personyear (in PPP 2005 dollars) 3. The energy intensity (energy use per unit of GDP) will continue to decline at the traditional rate 4. The CO2 intensity (CO2 emissions per unit of energy used) will continue to decline at the traditional rate 5. Voters and the market will continue to be short term J Randers 23

26 Energy per GDP (in tons of oil-equiv per mill $ of GDP) Note: GDP is measured in 2005 PPP US dollars per year J Randers 26

27 CO2 per energy (in tons of CO2e per ton of oil equiv) J Randers 27

28 Help society consider long-term effects J Randers 28

29 Local climate effects e.g. melting tundra MELTING TUNDRA, SAHKA, 2006 J Randers 29

30 Examples of important questions 1. Should we use gas in the transition to a renewable world? 2. How can one convince a majority to accept taxes on fossil energy? 3. How can we best give low-carbon technologies to the developing world? 4. Is there a role for CCS since it will be supported by the fossil industry and be needed after 2050 to suck CO2 out of the atmosphere? 5. How can one make energy efficiency more sexy than new nuclear capacity? J Randers 30

31 We need an extra-ordinary solution. Soon! J Randers 31
