Reconciling the tight emissions pathway with Sustainable Development

large-scale biomass burning, post-burn decay, peat decay, indirect N2O

2 Reconciling the tight emissions pathway with Sustainable Development aspirations Global energy-related CO2 emissions *: Others include large-scale biomass burning, post-burn decay, peat decay, indirect N2O emissions from non-agricultural emissions of NOx and NH3, Waste, and Solvent Use.

11 IPCC Special Report on CCS: A major milestone in CC negotiation amidst fluctuating policy support : Removal and storage of CO2 from fossil fuel power-stations. Costs, environmental effects and efficacy of such options remain largely unknown. IPCC Special Report on CCS Eligibility for CCS projects under KP CDM : Ad-hoc Working Group on Durban Platform pre2020 (WS2) Technical Expert Meeting CCS is critical to achieve more ambitious climate targets. Without CCS, the cost of achieving atmospheric concentrations in the range of ppm CO 2 -eq would be 138% higher. Copyright ESCWA. All rights reserved.

Strong expectation that CCS, will be a feature of the 2018 IPCC report.

12 Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) Inclusion of CCUS as mitigation measure INDCs proposed before COP21; CCS accepted as part of future CDM during COP22. CCS in INDCs: Bahrain, Brazil, Egypt, France, Malawi, Canada, China, Iran, Norway, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, UAE, USA. Other countries, including China, Australia and Japan did not specifically mention CCS in their pledges, however they have demonstrated significant commitments to developing CCS. Country CCS CO 2 -EOR Bahrain X Kuwait Oman X Qatar Saudi Arabia X X UAE X Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and UAE emphasized Decision 24/CP.18 Economic diversification with mitigation co-benefits as central pillar of climate action and emphasized financial, technology transfer and capacity building.

13 Opportunities for CO2 storage via EOR are substantial IEA estimates ranges from 50% to more than three times the amount of total CO2 storage required under the IEA 2DS scenario through Advanced EOR could potentially produce up to 375 billion barrels.

20 The challenges facing CCUS are well known and must now be addressed with a renewed sense of urgency if global climate goals are to be met Developing Long-term clear commitment technological and stability roadmaps in for policy each frameworks technology in are local critical applications. to create Advancing a sustainable domestic R&D market capacity and achieve for local aspirations CCUS development of CC mitigation Targeted financial incentives for investment are indispensable. New approaches of thinking and business models are important for accelerating CCUS deployment to achieve the ambitions of the Paris Agreement Governments should identify opportunities where policies and local and commercial interests align to encourage CCS deployment, and introduce measures targeted at creating new and strengthening existing markets for clean products with a low CO2 content Close collaboration to be enhanced between Governments and the industry to ensure that final investment decisions are taken on as many as possible of the projects in development and moving through construction to build experience and foster growth in the industry. Increase and expand international and regional CCUS co-operation across Research and sharing data for best practices are important for accelerating the future pace of CCUS deployment.
