1 Energy Efficiency in 2050: Long-term greenhouse gas reduction targets Amber Mahone Energy and Environmental Economics, Inc ACEEE 5 th National Conference on Energy Efficiency as a Resource The Drake Hotel, Chicago, IL September 28 th, 2009
2 Why the long-term view matters Scientists tell us that current levels of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions must be reduced to avert catastrophic climate change Federal climate policy is considering 80% reductions in GHG emissions by 2050 (relative to 2005) Similar targets in many U.S. states Reducing GHGs generally means reducing fossil fuel consumption Energy efficiency (EE) generally reduces fossil fuel consumption Long-term, economy-wide analysis of GHG emissions shows the importance of EE EE keeps costs down: cheaper than most low-carbon (and fossil fuel) alternatives EE helps offset expected growth in electricity demand due to electric cars and other sources of new electrification EE reduces need to build expensive power plants and transmission lines 2
3 Study Overview Key question What does California need to do to meet its 2050 GHG reduction goal? 2050 Target set by Executive Order S-3-05: Reduce statewide GHGs 80% below 1990 levels by 2050 Infrastructure modeling approach Bottom-up, multi-sector, stock roll-over model Integrated electricity grid dispatch algorithms Calibrated to CA projections of population, gross state product Does not predict pathways based on assumed prices and economic behavior like an equilibrium model Independent study sponsored by Hydrogen Energy International (HEI) HEI is seeking to develop a hydrogen-powered electricity generation facility with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) in California 3
4 Baseline and Compliant Scenarios Baseline Business-as-usual GHG projection 2050 Compliant Scenarios Reduce emissions 80% below 1990 levels by 2050 Test scenarios with varying levels of EE achievements MMt CO2e California Greenhouse Gas Emissions Target Baseline 2020 Requirement 2050 Target Year 4
5 Five Keys to Achieving 2050 Goal 1. Conservation Smart growth - homes are closer to jobs & people drive less 2. Energy efficiency & low-carbon on-site generation Efficiency increases the feasibility of meeting electricity and fuel demands with low-carbon energy Efficiency is essential to keep costs from prohibitive levels 3. Electrification & low-carbon generation All 2050 compliant scenarios require high electrification using lowcarbon generation sources 4. Low-carbon bio-fuels Biofuels become a premium fuel for those uses that are not readily electrifiable, particularly Heavy Duty Vehicles 5. Mitigation of non-fuel use GHGs (methane, refrigerant gases, etc.) 5
6 How do we get there? California 2050 Compliant Base Case MMt CO2e Building and Industrial EE = 190 MMt CO2 ~30% of total savings Conservation Energy Efficiency: Transportation Energy Efficiency: Buildings and Industrial PV Rooftops Low Carbon Biofuels Electrification Low Carbon Generation Mitigation of Non-Fuel Use GHGs Remaining CO2 6 Year
7 Competing Effects of Energy Efficiency and Electrification High levels of energy efficiency could nearly flatten load growth Efficiency gains are offset by electrification to reduce emissions from fossil fuel use in transportation and other sectors Electric Demand Including Electrification Meets 2050 GHG Target Electric Demand Excluding Electrification Does Not Meet 2050 GHG Target Electricity Generation (GWh) 700, , , , , , , Transportation Petroleum & Agriculture Industrial Commercial Residential Baseline Electric Demand at the Generator (GWh) 600, , , , , , Year Year
8 Costs are Uncertain 2050 Compliant Case is about $66 billion higher cost than Baseline 1.3% of California GSP in 2050, $1,200/person/yr in Compliant Case with No EE results in ~$100 billion higher cost than 2050 Compliant Case Assuming $0.12/kWh for electric EE, $15/MMBtu for gas EE and $20-$30/MMBtu for electrification in residential, commercial and industrial sectors in 2050 Error bars represent uncertainty surrounding emission reduction measure costs (testing twice and half the emission reduction measure cost assumptions). $ Annual Net Cost ($Billions, 2008 dollars) $700 $600 $500 $400 $300 $200 $100 Heavy Duty Vehicles & Other transport Light Duty Vehicles Industrial & Agriculture Residential & Commercial $- Baseline 2050 Compliant Case 2050 Compliant Case with No EE
9 Avoided Infrastructure High levels of EE nearly cuts in half the need to build additional low-carbon electricity power plants to meet GHG target over 40 years 2 Cases: With Efficiency reduces GHGs to 80% below 1990 levels by 2050 Without Efficiency meets 6 same GHG target, but 4 requires higher levels of 2 electrification and more lowcarbon electricity 0 generation Approximate Infrastructure Requirements by Nameplate Capacity (GW) per year 100 Miles of Transmission/yr Energy (100 TWh/yr) 2050 Compliant Case without Electric and Gas Efficiency 2050 Compliant Case with Efficiency
10 Implications Achieving 80% cuts in GHG emissions by 2050 will require massive increases in energy efficiency To achieve EE approaching technical potential will require starting soon Technology & behavioral breakthroughs in EE are needed Will require new programs, approaches and higher investment Not just cap and trade carbon price signals Without high EE achievements: Higher cost of compliance with GHG reduction goals GHG reductions must be achieved other ways - more electrification & low-carbon electricity generation The infrastructure challenge of building enough new, low-carbon power plants could become too big 10
