Global technical potentials for energy-efficiency improvement [Wina Graus, Ecofys Netherlands bv, +31306623324, [email protected]] [Eliane Blomen, Ecofys Netherlands bv, [email protected]] [Corinna Kleßmann, Ecofys Germany, [email protected]] [Caroline Capone, Ecofys Germany, [email protected]] [Eva Stricker, Ecofys Germany, [email protected]] Overview In this study the technical potentials and costs are calculated for energy-efficiency improvement in 10 world regions in 2030 and 2050. The regions considered in the study are the regions as defined by the International Energy Agency: OECD Europe, OECD North America, OECD Pacific, Transition Economies, China, India, Latin America, Africa, Middle East, and Rest of Developing Asia. The reference scenario is based on the World Energy Outlook (WEO) of the International Energy Agency edition 2007 (IEA, 2007) and assumptions regarding GDP development per region after 2030. The technical potentials for energy-efficiency improvement are based on literature sources and own calculations. Cost calculations for global energy-efficiency improvement are based on two case studies for the regions, OECD Europe and China. The results of this study show that on a business-as-usual trajectory, worldwide final energy demand is expected to grow by 95% from 290 EJ in 2005 to 570 EJ in 2050. By exploiting the technical potential for energy efficiency improvement in that period the increase can be limited to 8% or 317 EJ in 2050. It is estimated that to implement the global technical potential, annual costs equivalent to 0.4% of GDP in 2050 are needed. It was found that there is a large potential for cost-effective measures, equivalent to around 55-60% of energy savings of the efficiency measures. Methods The reference scenario is based on the World Energy Outlook (WEO) of the International Energy Agency edition 2007 (IEA, 2007), for the period 2005-2030. For the period 2030-2050 the WEO scenario is extended by assumptions regarding GDP (based on Simon et al., 2008) and energy intensity developments per region. Under the reference scenario global GDP grows by 440% from 63720 bln US$ (in 2006 dollars, ppp) in 2005 to 279100 bln US$ in 2050. Population increases from 6.5 billion in 2005 to 9.2 billion in 2050. The energy intensity in this period decreases from 4.6 MJ/US$ to 2.0 MJ/US$ (with 1.8% per year). The technical potentials for energy-efficiency improvement are based on literature sources and own calculations. Energy use is split up into three sectors: transport, industry and others (mainly buildings and agriculture). For the transport sector calculations are based on the WBCSD transport model (IEA/SMP, 2004). Technical potentials are based on literature sources indicating potential improvement in 2050 for energy-efficiency per transport mode. The main sources used are Blok (2005), Akerman (2005), Fulton & Eads (2004), DeCicco et al. (2004) and Lensink and De Wilde (2007). For the industry sector, technical potentials for energy-efficiency improvement are calculated specifically for the four largest energy consuming sectors: chemical and petrochemical industry, iron and steel, non-metallic minerals and aluminum production. Potentials are based on implementing best practice technolgy. Literature sources that are used are e.g. Kim and Worrell (2002), IISI (1998), IEA (2006), Fruehan et. al (2000), Keulenaer et al (2004), ENCI (2002), Sinton et al (2002) and Phylipsen et al. (1998). For the other sectors (buildings and agriculture), the potential for energy-efficiency improvement is calculated per type of energy use: space heating, cooking, hot water use, lighting, standby power, cold appliances, other appliances and air conditioning. Main literature sources used are: US DOE/EIA (2007), Bertoldi & Atanasiu (2006), WBCSD (2005), Koomey (2007), EuroTopten (2008), IEA (2006), Meier (2001), UNECE (2008). The cost estimates for energy-efficiency improvement measures are based on additional investment costs, expected energy savings, lifetime of measure and current energy prices. The costs are expressed in EUR 2005 values and a discount rate of 6% is used. The main literature sources used for investment costs and energy savings data per measure are TNO et. al (2006), JRC (2008), EESI (2006), US EPA (2008), IPCC (2007), Boermans and Petersdorff (2007), Harmelink (2005), European Commission (2007), LBNL (1999) and De Beer and Phylipsen (2001). Results On a business-as-usual trajectory, worldwide final energy demand is expected to grow by 95% from 290 EJ in 2005 to 570 EJ in 2050. By exploiting the technical potential for energy efficiency improvement in that period the increase can be limited to 8% or 317 EJ in 2050. Based on case studies done for OECD Europe and China it is estimated that to implement the global technical potential, annual costs equivalent to 0.4% of GDP in 2050 are needed. It was found that there is a large potential for cost-effective measures, equivalent to around 55-60% of energy savings of all included efficiency measures. The table below gives the increase or decrease of energy demand in 2050 in comparison to 2005 per sector for the world.

Results show that by implementing the technical potential for energyefficiency improvement the expected growth of final energy demand can be limited to 8% instead of 95%. The costs for implementing the energy-efficiency measures are estimated to be around 0.4% of GDP in 2050. 55-60% of the measures are estimated to be cost-effective. It is found however that cost estimates for efficiency measures are very sensitive to fuel price assumptions. Also the discount rate used influences costs significantly as well as assumptions regarding incremental investment costs of energy efficiency measures and estimated fuel savings. Further research is therefore needed in this field. 3 Intelligent Well Technology: Status and Opportunities for Developing Marginal Reserves SPE References Akerman, J.
