Dr Michiaki Harada - Outline of Boundary Dam Integrated CCS Project from JCoalGlobal CCS Institute
This presentation was delivered by Dr Michiaki Harada of the Japan Coal Energy Centre (JCoal) at the 14th Study Meeting of the Global CCS Institute, Tokyo.
The document proposes that Japan reduce its GHG emissions by 30-35% below 1990 levels by 2025 and 40-50% below 1990 levels by 2030. It also recommends targets for renewable energy, energy efficiency, phasing out fossil fuel dependence and coal plants, while also phasing out nuclear power. The proposal calls for Japan to incorporate adaptation targets, commit to international climate finance and technology support, and contribute to overseas emission reductions through approved UN mechanisms in addition to domestic cuts.
WWF Japan's Energy Vision: Energy Scenario Proposal for Decarbonizing JapanNaoyuki Yamagishi
1. WWF Japan proposes an energy scenario to decarbonize Japan's economy by 2050 through massive energy savings, phasing out nuclear power, and increasing renewable energy supply.
2. Their analysis shows that energy demand can be halved by 2050 through energy efficiency measures. Renewable energy sources like solar, wind and biomass are sufficient to meet Japan's energy needs and the costs will decrease over time as the transition is made.
3. While the power grid will require investments to accommodate more renewable energy, studies show it can adapt if changes are made early. WWF Japan calls for ambitious targets and a shift to more renewable-centric thinking to achieve a 100% renewable energy system.
This document discusses procedural and legal issues related to decision making by the Conference of Parties and Conference of Parties serving as the meeting of Parties to the Kyoto Protocol. It mentions the Subsidiary Body for Implementation and the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice will consider matters related to loss and damage between 2013-2015 as decided by COP18. It also discusses frameworks for various approaches and non-market mechanisms under the UNFCCC and notes the need for monitoring, reporting and verification of these measures by 2020. Lastly, it provides citations for reports by the World Bank on carbon pricing initiatives.
COP18 and COP/MOP8 were held in Doha, Qatar from November 26th to December 7th, 2012. Key issues discussed included the future of the Kyoto Protocol and mechanisms to engage more countries in reducing emissions. Emissions trading schemes and carbon markets were also examined, as well as approaches to scale up climate financing and support from developed to developing countries. NGO participation provided perspectives on ensuring environmental integrity and ambition in future climate agreements and mechanisms.
1. The document discusses several approaches to establishing a new market-based mechanism framework under the UNFCCC, including the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) and sectoral crediting mechanisms.
2. It notes key issues and challenges with the CDM such as limited scope and size, and proposes expanding the new market-based mechanism framework to include new approaches like Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions.
3. The document recommends continuing technical work to further elaborate guidelines for the new market-based mechanism framework with the goal of recommending elements for adoption by the Conference of the Parties at its 19th session in 2013.

1. Global energy demand is projected to increase by over 30% by 2035, with fossil fuels continuing to dominate the energy mix.
2. Transitioning to a more sustainable energy future will require major policy and technological changes to accelerate energy efficiency gains and the deployment of renewable energy.
3. International cooperation will be crucial to the development and sharing of innovative solutions to transition global energy systems to a more sustainable path.
The document discusses the outcomes of COP16 and COP/MOP6 climate change conferences. Key topics included further negotiations under the AWG-LCA and AWG-KP tracks to address climate change mitigation and adaptation. COP17 and COP/MOP7 will continue these discussions to establish measurement, reporting and verification frameworks and increase climate financing and technology cooperation.
1) The document discusses global energy trends including renewable energy sources and forecasts for renewable energy capacity additions between 2020 and 2040.
2) It projects that renewable energy capacity will grow substantially in coming decades, reaching 28% of global power capacity by 2020, 50% by 2030, and 76% by 2040.
3) The document references several other reports and studies about energy use and the costs and potential of renewable energy technologies.
This document discusses global energy trends and projections out to 2050:
1) It projects that global energy demand will increase by 28% by 2020 and 50% by 2030, with renewable energy sources like solar and wind growing the most rapidly but from a low base currently.
2) By 2040, renewable energy is projected to make up 25% of the global energy mix and by 2050, renewables could account for over 35% of total global energy production.
3) However, fossil fuels will still dominate the global energy landscape for decades to come, with gas and coal playing a larger role than oil, which is projected to peak around 2020. Renewable energy growth will need to accelerate dramatically
This document summarizes key projections related to renewable energy capacity and generation in China between 2005 and 2050. It includes the following key points:
1) Projected renewable energy capacity is expected to grow significantly, reaching over 1,000 GW by 2050, with solar and wind making up the majority.
2) Renewable energy generation is also projected to increase substantially, expected to exceed 10,000 TWh in 2050 and account for over 30% of total electricity generation.
3) The document references other sources that provide context on China's renewable energy development goals and the feasibility of achieving a long-term transition to renewable sources.

2030年で必要な削減水準について(再び)
“Cost-effective mitigation scenarios that make it at least as likely as not that
temperature change will remain below 2°C relative to pre-industrial levels (2100
concentrations between about 450 and 500 ppm CO2eq) are typically characterized by
annual GHG emissions in 2030 of roughly between 30 GtCO2eq and 50 GtCO2eq.
(…)
Due to these increased mitigation challenges, many models with annual 2030 GHG
emissions higher than 55 GtCO2eq could not produce scenarios reaching atmospheric
concentration levels that make it as likely as not that temperature change will remain below
2°C relative to preindustrial levels. [6.4, 7.11, Figures TS.11, TS.13]”
• SPMにも、報告書本体の方にも、「2030年にX%削減」というような書き方
はされていない。これは、長期目標と違い、同じ炭素予算内でもいろいろな
経路がありえるから。
• ただし、上記記述を参照すると、30Gt-CO2eq~50Gt-CO2eqに抑えることが
50%の確率で2℃未満を達成するためには必要になる。
• したがって、likelyを達成しようと考えれば、30Gtに近い削減量の確保が必要。
これは、2010年比では約39%削減、1990年比では約21%削減になる。
