13 Key Energy Developments in Asia Beni Suryadi ASEAN Centre for Energy

14 Overview Trend in Asia

15 Energy & Carbon Intensity in Asia

16 Energy Consumption in ASEAN By Sector: Energy consumption increased at an annual rate of 7.0% from 213 MTOE in 2002 to 390 MTOE in 2011 The other sector: residential and commercial, had the fastest growth at an average annual rate of 8.7% resulting to its increased share of total final energy consumption.

17 Energy Consumption in ASEAN By Fuel Type: Energy consumption of others which is mostly biomass was the fastest growing at 13.9% per annum Oil remained as the dominant fuel in final energy consumption but has slower growth rate at 4.1%.

18 The ASEAN Plan of Action for Energy Cooperation (APAEC) July 2009: : ASEAN Ministers launched the third series of implementation plan of the ASEAN Vision 2020 as prescribed in the ASEAN Economic Community Blueprint 2015, named as APAEC , to serve as the blueprint for ASEAN cooperation in the field of energy for the period under the theme Bringing Policies to Actions: Towards a Cleaner, more Efficient and Sustainable ASEAN Energy Community, to support the realization of the ASEAN Economic Community towards 2015 and beyond. Targets outlined on Low Emission Strategies: Goal of reducing regional energy intensity of at least 8% by 2015 based on 2005 level. To achieve a collective target of 15% for regional renewable energy in the total power installed capacity by 2015.

19 National Targets on EE&C and RE to Support APAEC Member States Energy Efficiency Saving Goal Renewable Energy Targets Brunei Attain 25% reduction of energy intensity from 2005 level by MW of solar PV capacity by 2030 Cambodia Reduce final energy consumption by 10% in all sectors Indonesia Reduce final energy consumption by 1% per year from the BAU scenario Solar photovoltaic (1.5 MW), Biomass Gasification (87 kw), Micro-hydro (500 kw) By 2025, the energy mix of Indonesia should contain: 5% biofuels, % geothermal, 2.6% hydro, 0.03% wind, 0.74 biomass Laos Reduce final energy consumption by 10% in all sectors Development of hydro projects for domestic use and export. Malaysia Myanmar Philippines Singapore Thailand Vietnam (i) Reduction of final energy consumption in the industrial, commercial and residential sectors by 10% from 2011 to 2030, (ii) Reduce final energy consumption of the transportation sector by 1.39 ktoe in 2030 by modal and fuel switching from gasoline to electricity rail transport and electric vehicles Installed renewable energy capacity by 2030: 1340 MW Biomass, 410 MW Biogas, 490 MW Mini-hydro, 854 MW Solar, 390 MW Municipal Solid Waste, Biofuels to displace 5% of diesel in road transport (i) Reduce primary energy consumption by 5% in 2020 and 8% by 2030 (i) 15%-20% share of renewable energy to total installed electricity compared to BAU, (ii) Improve energy efficiency in all end-use by 16% by generating capacity, (ii) Displace 8% conventional liquid fuels with biofuels 2030 in road transport Reduce final energy consumption by 10% in all sectors (i) Reduce energy intensity by 20% by 2020 and by 35% by 2030 from the 2005 level (ii) Cap CO2 emissions from combustion of fuel at 63 Mt- CO2 in Save 25% of total energy in 2030 relative to BAU Reduce energy consumption by 3%-5% by 2010 and between 5%-8% by Target by 2030: ~ 1,500 MW of new geothermal capacity, ~ 2,100 MW of new hydro capacity, ~950 MW of new wind capacity, ~71 MW of new solar PV capacity, ~102 MW of new biomass capacity, Displace 15% of diesel and 20% of diesel and 20% of gasoline with biofuels Solar energy to take a 5% share of the country s power generation mix. Install 6,329 MW of various RE electricity generating facilities, Biofuels to displace 12.2% of transport energy demand RE Targets by 2030: 2100 MW Wind, 2400 MW Small Hydro, 400 MW biomass

20 Expected CO 2 Reduction from National Targets 24% reduction in CO 2 by 2030 is expected under Alternative Policy Scenario (APS), compare to Business as Usual Scenario (BA) as a result of the energy efficiency and renewable energy development action plans in National level to support regional aspiration. This is based on member countries fulfilling their current commitments to reduce the fuel consumption by end-users and power generation, as well as install more carbon free or carbon neutral generation sources, such as nuclear, biomass, wind and solar power facilities.

21 ASEAN Current Results Reached about 0.34 toe/million 2005 USD in 2010, Energy Intensity in 2011 back on the same level of Renewable energy total installed capacity in the ASEAN increased significantly from 24, MW in 2006 to 39, MW in 2011.

22 Key Findings As member countries continue to pursue their economic goals, energy consumption and CO 2 emission in ASEAN as a region will growth very fast, put a pressure on energy security and environmental stability. If current energy (fossil fuel) production levels in the region do not increase - the region will have to source out this additional demand from outside the region, or need to tap more on its potential on renewable energies which are abundantly available through the region. Appropriate energy efficiency and conservation programs, low-carbon technologies and increased shares of non-fossil fuels in power generation - would be needed to reduce carbon intensity and enhance energy security.

23 Next Step: Development of the 4 th ASEAN Energy Outlook To be presented for the endorsement of ASEAN Ministers on Energy Meeting in 2015 in Malaysia. APS will utilize the full potential of the renewable energy resources and EE&C action plants in the region under the energy market integration to reach the potentially maximum role of renewable energy in energy supply and reduction of Energy Intensity. References to (i) clearly define a legal and policy framework to promote RE and EE&C into sustainable development strategy; (ii) strengthening research and development on RE and EE&C technology appropriate to the ASEAN region; (iii) continue studies on RE and EE&C market and provide funding for promotion of environmentally friendly green energy.

35 Thailand s Energy LEDS: What Needed? MRV of RE Power

36 Thailand s Energy LEDS: What Needed? MRV of EE NAMA

37 Thailand s Post2020 Scenarios Low Emission Pathway and Peak Emission Scenarios 2050BAU 30% 2050LCS 20% Peak CO 2

38 Thailand s Energy LEDS: Key Lessons Learned Co-benefits reveal positive aspects of GHG mitigation. MRV process needs cooperation among related ministries. Abatement costs of actions are identified. It is concluded among Thai stakeholders that the NAMAs action of 7-20% reduction in CO 2 will be unilateral NAMAs. However, MRVs of such actions are required to ensure GHG reduction achievement and transparency. Experiences learned from pre2020 is used in development of post2020 agreement or the intended nationally determined contribution (INDC).

39 Thailand s Energy LEDS: Post2020 Upfront Info (for Thailand s INDC 2030) 1. Baseline Scenario vs Scenario 2. Realistic policy/actions (RE, EE, LCS/LEDS) 3. Projection methodology/modeling (AIM, MARKAL, LEAP etc.) 4. Data sources (Official Statistic Reports, Gov t policies) 5. Sectoral approach for emission/reduction. 6. Integrated modeling will be done for the whole energy system. 7. Land-use and forestry will not be included. 8. Annual GHG reduction until 2030 will be quantified. 9. Double counting of actions will be avoided. 10. Outcome will be transparent Thailand s INDC 2030.

40 Thailand s Energy LEDS: Conclusions Thailand s Energy LEDS will result in transformational changes in both supply side and demand side. To achieve peak target, Thailand needs, i) LEDS Capacity Building, ii) sustainable Feed-in Tariff scheme for renewable electricity, iii) enforcement of Energy Efficiency laws in buildings and industries, iv) co-funding of the LEDS actions. The peak target will not be achieved if they are not planned & implemented in the early stage. The lock-in emissions will happen to Thailand. In addition, M R V of LEDS actions are of necessity.
