6 2- Characteristics of Energy Sector in ESCWA MCs (Cont d) Proven Reserves from Total World (%) Gas Oil Total Arab Countries Total ESCWA MCs Oil & Gas Exports Represent more than 65 % (to 90%) from total exports for GCC Countries & Yemen, Iraq & Sudan. - Electricity Tariffs and Oil & Gas Products are subsidized. - Importance to put efforts for economic stability and energy security. - Main primary Energy Consumer: Electricity Sector (96% from Oil & Gas evenly distributed) # 40%. - Emissions: 40% from Electricity Sector. 6
7 2- Characteristics of Energy Sector in ESCWA MCs (Cont d) Total Electricity Generation Total Energy Generated 2011 (thousand Gegawatt hour) Total Energy Generated 2020 (thousand Gegawatt hour)
8 2- Characteristics of Energy Sector in ESCWA MCs (Cont d) Most of the Arab water sources were exhausted after the completion of MARWE Dam project in Sudan in 2010 (1250 MW). Possibility of additional small hydro plants (In Lebanon160 MW / with 600 GWh/year, ) The possibility of establishing Large Hydro plants outside the Arab countries in the Nile Basin countries: - Electricity interconnection project in the countries of Eastern Nile Basin (Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia) where Egypt will benefit of 2000 MW and the Sudan 1200 MW. - Inga Dam Project: around 100 GW. Solar Energy: High Potential/High cost of investment, of storage Wind Energy:High potential in some areas/but negative energy Biofuel: only from Waste/ scarcity and food security problems!! 8
9 2- Characteristics of Energy Sector in ESCWA MCs (Cont d) Impacts of Climate Change on Energy sector 1. Increased need for Air Conditioning 4. Sea Level Rise (SLR) : Cooling Systems ; Oil& gas extraction Platforms 2. Decreased Capacity & Efficiency of Electricity Generation Equipment 5. Increase Need for Energy to produce water Global Warming 3.Increase need for cooling & decreased current in cables 9
10 2- Characteristics of Energy Sector in ESCWA MCs (Cont d) Impacts of Climate Change on Energy sector Energy for water Already Water Stressed region m3/capita/year Renewable water availability per capita CC aggravate water shortages and therefore ; Pressure on Water Resources 1.Desalination 2. Water Treatment Energy Needs Increase 10
11 2- Characteristics of Energy Sector in ESCWA MCs (Cont d) Impacts of Climate Change on Energy sector Where do we go???? Climate Change More CO2 Emissions More Energy Consumption (fossil Fuel?) Energy Consumption CO2 Climate Needs (fossil fuel) Emissions Change for AC Refrigeration Desalination + Less Efficiency 11
12 2- Characteristics of Energy Sector in ESCWA MCs (Cont d) Electricity Sector - Import by ESCWA Region from Europe (Spain of Turkey) and Iran: around 2400 GWh - Deficit in generation in Iraq, Lebanon, Jordan - Previsions % increase in Electrical Energy 91% increase Peak Electricity Demand - Investment for the period until GW for Electricity Generation from RE around 150 billions US$ 155 GW Conventional Electricity Generation (new power plants) with grid expansion. around 300 billions US$ Replacement of 33% of the existing power plants (55 GW) around 50 billions US$ 500 billions US$ More than 50 billions US$/year Sources of Financing - Governments - International & Regional Funds - Private Sector -. - CDM 12
13 2- Characteristics of Energy Sector in ESCWA MCs (Cont d) Specific Energy Problems in ESCWA Countries Energy Accessibility about 36 million people (mainly in Sudan and Yemen) in the ESCWA countries (12 %), mostly in rural areas, have no access to appropriate energy services especially electricity; a further of 45 million (mainly in Irak,Lebanon )(15 percent) are severely undersupplied. Poverty is a serious problem in several Arab countries and there is an urgent need for increasing energy accessibility to the poor to mitigate energy and human poverty. The Subsidized electricity tariffs and oil-gas prices is the main constraint witch is facing the deployment of EE and RE applications. The impacts of Climate change in Energy Sector There are needs for: - Awareness raising - Capacity Building - Institutional Framework - Investment for Electricity Sector/gas and oil sectors - Technology transfer - Promoting Private/ Public Partnership 13
14 3- The Status of Cooperation to enhance Energy Security in the Region Adopted Policies: A- The Council of Arab Ministers Responsible for Environment issues CAMRE The Arab Regional Strategy for Sustainable Consumption and Production (2010): 6 priority areas for implementation, including "Energy for Sustainable Development" in terms of: -Deployment of renewable energy technologies -Increase the share of renewable energy in the fuel mix, particularly in rural and remote areas. B- Arab strategy for pacific use of Nuclear Energy: adopted by the Arab Summit in Doha, Qatar (2009): Electricity Generation & Water desalination/ Steps: Capacity Building, Training, Institutional Framework etc C - Arab Ministerial Council on Electricity / Committee of Experts on renewable energy and energy efficiency: Arab Guiding Framework for improving EE in the electricity sector at the end users level (LAS 2010). Arab Strategy for RE applications (LAS 2010): which will be included in the agenda of the third Arab Summit for Economic and Social Development / 2013 KSA 14

24 4- Conclusion / Looking Forward ESCWA within its objective to achieve integrated sustainable management in the ESCWA region (including access to energy, energy security), will put a focus on: Enhanced capacity of member countries to improve the role of the energy sector in achieving sustainable development, and energy security throw: - Electrical Interconnections - Natural Gas Network - Oil pipeline from country producers (Gulf) to Mediterranean coast, and refineries. - Knowledge transfer, learned lessons from Pilot projects and experiences. Strengthened South-South cooperation and South-North cooperation in the field through its existing regional cooperation mechanisms. 24
25 4- Conclusion / Looking Forward (Cont d) Provide technical support to ESCWA countries in: - Awareness raising and capacity building. - Conducting and improving their needs assessments for RE & EE technologies. - Enhancing Knowledge & Technology Transfer. Support member Countries in the formulation of policies to increase investment and financial flows. Enhance cooperation and coordination with concerned UN agencies, LAS Institutions and other organizations (ISESCO EU ) involved in the ESCWA region in achieving the above. 25
