Oil price is found by expectation in the
futures market affected by supply and
demand, risk and money.
Oil price was much higher than what was
indicated by actual supply-demand factor.

Highlights
❖ Outlook for World/Asia energy and ❖ Analysis of lower prices by easy
measures against climate change
energy supply and demand balance
Global energy demand continues to increase
led by Asian emerging economies, etc.
Huge effect is expected by energy
conservation and mitigating climate change
measures. The target of halving CO2
emissions by 2050, however, is hardly
progressing.
Mitigating measures expected from major
emitters’ INDCs very likely fail to sufficiently
reduce GHG emissions.
Balancing among mitigation, adaptation and
damage and assessing various emission
reduction trajectories with a long-term view
are essential.

Production of the Middle East grows by only
1.0 Mb/d if development of unconventional
resources, strong energy conservation and
decarbonisation progress simultaneously.
While lower prices are a great boon to
energy importing countries, exporters will
inevitably face damage unless they reform
the current economic structure.
There is risk of supply-demand imbalance in
the future due to the absence of proper
investment under extreme unstable prices.
Dialogue and cooperation between
producers and consumers and among
consumers themselves play a important role.

- Population is expected to increase
mainly in developing (non-OECD)
countries.
- China’s population gradually ages
and peaks out around 2030.
Meanwhile, population rapidly
increases in India and Africa, thanks
to medical technology and food
nutrition improvement.
- India replaces China as the most
populated country in Asia (and the
world) around 2025; population
should reach 1.6 billion in 2040.

In the Reference Scenario, crude oil prices rise gradually again to
$100/bbl by 2030 due to robust demand growth in non-OECD
countries, emerging geopolitical risks and financial factors, oil
supply constraints reflecting rising depletion rates for oil fields, etc.
LNG prices will rise accordingly, with the existing price disparity
shrinking due to expanding interregional trades.
-
- In the Lower Price Scenario, energy prices remain lower due to
the dull growth in demand in accordance with the diffusion of
energy saving technologies, as well as further promotion of
unconventional resources development.

Scenarios
Reference Scenario
This scenario reflects past trends as well as energy and environment policies that have
been introduced so far. This scenario does not reflect any aggressive policies for
energy conservation or low-carbon measures.
Advanced Technologies Scenario
In this scenario, energy conservation and low-carbon technologies are promoted for
maximum impacts, as each country is assumed to implement powerful policies to enhance
energy security and address climate change issues.
Lower Price Scenario
In this scenario, it is assumed that energy savings will be pursued as stringently as in the
Advanced Technologies Scenario, while assuming large increases in unconventional oil and
natural gas production, resulting in considerable relaxation of supply and demand.
10
Assumptions for the Advanced Technologies Scenario
In this scenario, each country further enhances policies on energy security and addresses global warming. Technological
developments and international technology transfers are promoted to further expand the diffusion of innovative
technologies.
Introducing and Enhancing Environmental
Regulations and National Targets
Environment Tax, Emissions Trading, RPS, Subsidy
Provisions, FIT, Efficiency Standards, Automobile Fuel
Efficiency Standard, Low Carbon Fuel Standard, Energy
Efficiency Labeling, National Targets, etc.
【Demand Side Technology】
■ Industry

・ While Asia including China and India have scarce oil and natural gas resources, coal resource are
abundant and this contributes to stabilize energy self-sufficiency.
・ Asian fossil fuel self-sufficiency rate has been decreasing and it keeps decreasing not only in the Reference
Scenario where demand rapidly increases but also in the Advanced Technologies Scenario where energy
saving technologies are heavily introduced.

Nuclear power generation will continue to increase in China, India and Korea. Vietnam becomes the first
country to operate a nuclear power plant in Southeast Asia, followed by other ASEAN countries.
-
Wind power expands in China and India. Its diffusion in ASEAN will be limited because of the complex
topography.
-
Solar power grows at the highest rate. Due to the low load factors, however, it falls behind wind power in
terms of power output.

High-efficiency lighting
In the case of high-efficiency lighting such as light-emitting diodes (LED), the benefits induced by energy saving
outweigh the costs, resulting in net positive benefits. On the other hand, in many cases the energy saving
measures that need huge initial investments bring net negative benefits, because the investments cannot be
recouped by energy saving. In these cases, vigorous policies including subsidies and tax incentives are needed to
promote energy saving.
-
Taking only the “beneficial” energy saving actions is not sufficient to achieve ambitious CO2 reduction targets.
Maximum deployment of energy saving technologies, including the more “costly” ones, is indispensable.

・ On the supply side, while energy supply decreases in the Advanced Technologies Scenario,
investments on renewable energy (etc.) expand and the cumulative investments up to 2040 are the
same level as the Reference Scenario.
・ On the demand side, additional investments of over 20 trillion USD are required for energy savings.
Asian countries, including China and India, account for 42% of the additional investments.
22
Conclusion: Asia/World Energy Outlook through 2040
• Global and Asian primary energy consumption increase 1.4-fold and 1.6-fold, respectively,
through 2040. As energy demand expands rapidly, Asia’s energy self-sufficiency rate
continues to fall and that change may destabilize the world energy markets. It also results in
increasing global CO2 emissions, causing severe damages to the environment.
• The key to solving these problems are energy saving and the decarbonization of energy use.
Energy saving measures include the penetration of the technologies that bring more
benefits than costs. With only these “beneficial” technologies, however, it would not be
possible to achieve a sufficient level of energy saving. Every effort should be made to realize
the maximum possible saving of energy consumption, taking more “costly” measures as well.
• Asian emerging countries, including China and India, hold the key to reducing CO2 and GHG
emissions. Without their cooperation, the international community is not able to address the
climate change problem. All countries and regions have to adopt maximum measures of
efficiency, while maintaining sustainable economic growth.

Oversupply since 2014 is as much as 1 Mb/d, the largest in the last 16 years. We, however, have no
experience that oversupply at such a scale continues for three or more years in the last three decades.
The crude oil futures market has grown much faster than actual oil supply and demand. We cannot
deny that money and geopolitical factors have a huge influence on oil price again.

Summary: Lower energy prices
❖ How do we see the current oil price? ❖ Impact by lower prices [2030]
▌ Similarities can be found between fall of oil
price this time and in 1980s:
1. Huge contribution by increases in supply
from new sources,
2. Independent from demand factor caused by
economic shock, and
3. Competition among OPEC members.
▌ Oil market fundamentally has a nature that
draws cycles. Therefore, oil price turns to rise
sooner or later. The similarities, however,
suggest possibility that current low price does
not end in short term.
Asia/World Energy Outlook 2015 IEEJ © 2015
▌ Oil price was much higher than indicated by
actual supply-demand factor since 2011. We
cannot deny that money and geopolitical
factors have huge influence on oil price again.
▌ There is risk of supply-demand imbalance in
future due to absence of proper investment
under extreme unstable prices. Dialogue and
cooperation between producers and consumers
and among consumers themselves play an
important role for sustainable development.
▌ We can assume $75/bbl or lower oil price if
policy-driven fossil fuel saving and wider
utilisation of unconventional resources by
technology development ease supplydemand balance.
▌ Global oil supply in 2030 is 96.5 Mb/d,
increased by just 7.7 Mb/d from today, due to
assumed strong energy conservation and
fuel switching. Production growth in the
Middle East is only 1.0 Mb/d squeezed by
large increases in unconventional oil
production in North America, etc. Russia
faces production reduction by 0.8 Mb/d.
▌ Lower import quantity and price result in
substantial low import spending for crude
oil. Largest fruits are in hands of China.
▌ Reduction in energy import spending
supports global economy with 1.9% of
expansion, especially for importing
countries. Situation exerts downward
pressure on oil producing countries in the
Middle East and others, whose revenue
depends heavily on energy exports.

technological options, including energy saving, enhancement of power generation efficiency,
renewables, nuclear and CCS. Altogether these options contribute to large CO2 emissions reduction.
・ To achieve halving global CO2 emissions from current levels, additional measures such as innovative
technological development and eco-friendly urban development are required in the long-term.

Assumed the reduction rate of CO2 intensity as identical to
that of GHG intensity.
In most countries including emerging nations, the GHG intensity (i.e. GHG emission divided by real GDP)
has rapidly been declining, even though total GHG emission has been increasing.
- The continuation of the historical trends (the Reference Scenario) shows that the targets are hardly
challenging.

-The results of the Reference Scenario correspond to a level of GHG concentration in the atmosphere
in 2100 in the range of 760-860 ppm (CO2-eq.), with the average temperature rise from 1850-1900
reaching between 2.8-4.0°C the same year.
- On the other hand, the Advanced Technologies Scenario is comparable to GHG concentrations in
2100 of 540-600 ppm (CO2-eq.), with the average rise in temperature between 1.7 and 2.4°C. This is
lower than 2.5°C and possibly lower than 2°C by 2100.

- For the Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 2.6, which is a typical scenario for the “450ppm” category,
the GHG concentration is estimated around 500 ppm CO2-eq in 2100. In a longer term, the concentration
declines to some 450 ppm.
- This scenario assumes 64% reduction of fossil CO2 from 2010 to 2050, and negative emissions after 2070. It is
much more ambitious than the “50% reduction by 2050” target.
40
Mitigation vs. adaptation and damage
- In 2050 the temperature rise is relatively small (less
than 2°C from the latter half of the 19th century),
resulting in smaller damage.
- CO2 reduction brings benefits (negative costs) to a
certain extent due to the savings of fossil fuel
consumption. If the reduction ratio exceeds that of the
Advanced Technologies Scenario, however, the cost
increases enormously.
- The damage costs also become tremendous after
2100. Thus a long-term perspective is indispensable to
address the problem of climate change.

Uncertainty in estimating the long-term optimal path
700
Mitigation, adaptation and damage costs
- The estimation of these costs and damages are still at a very early
stage. The uncertainty is extremely large.
- The mitigation cost hike with larger reduction ratio makes the
achievement of “zero emission” or “negative emission” extremely
difficult. Future R&D should aim to reduce this cost hike.

- The temperature change in response to the changes in the radiative
Reduction from BaU
forcing is called climate sensitivity.
- In IPCC AR4, it was estimated at 2.0 – 4.5°C with the best estimate at 3.0°C. However, recent studies
tend to estimate the climate sensitivity lower. In IPCC AR5, it was estimated at 2.0 – 4.5°C without any
agreement on the best estimate.
- With lower climate sensitivity, damage caused by climate change becomes smaller, resulting in a less
ambitious mitigation path being optimal.
Discount rate (social discount rate)
- An annual ratio used to convert a future value to the present value.
- When a certain rate of interest is expected for sure, the interest rate
can be regarded as the discount rate.
- With higher discount rates, future climate damages are valued less,
resulting in smaller mitigation being optimal.
- This study assumes the “normal” discount rate at around 4% in
2050, and the “low” discount rate at around 2% in 2050, under the
assumptions as described later.

- The optimal path considering mitigation and adaptation costs and climate damage shows a
downward trend of CO2 emission from the current level, although the uncertainty is very large.
-These calculations suggest that the paths to reduce 50% or more from current levels by 2050 result in
enormous mitigation costs compared with the damage, and cannot be regarded as optimal, even
assuming lower discount rates.
- In order to achieve zero or negative emissions in a longer term, technological innovation would be
needed to reduce the cost hike with larger CO2 reduction ratios.
43
Social discount rate
The “social discount rate” ρ can be formulated as follows (Ramsey’s formula):
ρ=δ+ηg
δ: Pure rate of time preference
g: Growth rate of per capita consumption
η: Elasticity of marginal utility with respect to consumption
If the economic (and consumption) growth rate declines in the future, the discount rate also declines
according to this formula.
“Standard” assumption
Calibrate the parameters to match the observed
market interest rates.
Example: δ=1.5%、η=1.45 (DICE 2013R model)
⇒ Discount rate: 5% in 2010, 4% in 2050
and 3.5% in 2100
“Low” assumption
Set the parameters normatively irrespective of the observed
interest rates, from the viewpoint of intergenerational justice.
Example: δ=0.1%、η=1.0 (Stern review)
⇒ Discount rate: 3.5% in 2010, 2% in 2050
and 1.5% in 2100

Overview and challenges
Advanced nuclear technologies under development worldwide,
including fast breeder reactors, high temperature gas-cooled reactors,
molten salt reactors and small modular reactors.
Unlike the conventional nuclear technologies that exploit the energy
released by the fission of heavy nuclei, nuclear fusion makes use of
the energy released during the reaction (fusion) of light nuclei. This
technology could possibly result in a almost limitless supply of energy,
without producing spent fuels as high-level radioactive wastes.
A system that transmits energy from space-based solar power plants
to the ground in the form of microwaves or laser beams. It can
generate power stably with almost no influence from the weather.
Reducing the costs of mass transition through space is one of the
major challenges.
The technology to capture and store the carbon dioxide released by
burning biofuels. If the biofuel can be regarded as carbon neutral, this
technology makes it possible to achieve negative emissions. Barriers
to large-scale deployment of BECCS include risks related to transport
and provision of biomass feedstock.
The technologies to capture and use carbon dioxide as industrial
materials, etc. Large-scale processing of CO2 is one of the major
challenges.
A chemical process to convert sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into
carbohydrates and oxygen. As with the BECCS technology, it could
realize negative emissions. Major challenges include the development
of the catalysis to split water into hydrogen and oxygen.

Conclusion: Addressing climate change issues
・ With the climate actions suggested by the INDCs of major countries, it would not be
possible to curb GHG emissions to sufficient levels. It is strongly expected that each party
tries its best to reduce GHG emissions further.
・ At the same time, we should note that there is a trade-off relationship among the
mitigation, adaptation and damage costs. It would be realistic to expect a balance among
the three, while minimizing the total cost. Otherwise no international agreements would be
obtained.
・ From this point of view, it is necessary to take actions against climate change considering
various scenarios and options other than only the “450ppm” scenario.
・ Long-term measures have to be taken beyond 2050 to reduce global CO2 emissions
drastically. In addition to existing technologies, innovative technologies including CCS, CCU
and artificial photosynthesis have to be developed to accomplish the target.
