Leadership at home and
internationally
• Create an enduring domestic
institutional architecture
• Reduce our emissions out to
2050 and beyond
• Hold ourselves and other
countries to account to meet
international commitments, e.g.
Paris Agreement
• Secure a multilateral rules system
that delivers action with
environmental integrity by all
countries
• Stand with the Pacific to support
the region’s climate action and
resilience
• Invest in globally significant
research, strategic alliances and
capacity-building in developing
countries
• Place primary reliance on
domestic measures, while
retaining options for
international cooperation
A just and inclusive
society
• Consider the optimal speed and
pathways for transition
• Take early action where this
prevents greater costs in the long
run, also recognising the rights
and needs of future generations
and honouring existing Treaty
settlement commitments
• Support the transitional shift to
lower emissions and resilient
sectors, and recognise and
mitigate impacts on workers,
regions, iwi/Māori rights and
interests and wider communities
• Support those affected by climate
impacts to adjust
• Ensure information about climate
change and its impacts is robust
and accessible to aid decision-
making
• Ensure information about climate
change and its impacts is robust
and accessible to aid decision-
making
A productive,
sustainable and climate-
resilient economy
• Encourage innovation,
diversification and the uptake of
new technologies
• Seek to fully understand the
costs, benefits, risks and trade-
offs of policy levers across the
economy, society and
environment
• Identify the best-value
opportunities to reduce
emissions
• Increase our international
competitiveness by speeding up
the decoupling of emissions from
growth
• Drive behaviour change via a
range of policy tools, including
regulation, education, price-
based and support levers
• Proactively adapt to ongoing
climate change impacts and
invest to build resilience across
all hazards and risks
3. • International targets
− 5 per cent reduction below 1990 gross emissions for the period 2013-2020
− 30 per cent reduction below 2005 (or 11 per cent below 1990) gross emissions
for the period 2021-2030.
• Domestic targets (Zero Carbon Amendment Bill) in force
from November 2019
− net zero emissions of all greenhouse gases other than biogenic methane by
2050
− 24 to 47 per cent below 2017 biogenic methane emissions by 2050, including
10 per cent below 2017 biogenic methane emissions by 2030.

• Renewable energy was 39.6% of energy supply in 2017
• In 2017 the 4th highest renewable primary energy supply among OECD countries
• 41.9 TWh of electricity was generated in 2017, 1.3% more than in 2016
• 82% of the electricity generated in 2017 was from renewable sources, down from
85% in 2016.
• Additional 1.3 TWh electricity from coal and gas generation in 2017

Looks like about zero, isn`t it?
11. • Works on nearly full capacity for whole year
(AF>90%)
• Long lifetime 30-40 years
• Highly predictable and stable source of energy
−Usually far from livehood areas
−Needs exploration and drilling (leading to high risk
and to high upfront costs)
➢Great source of energy but what if there will be
high carbon price?

There are two energy security of supply standards:
▪ Winter energy margin of 16% for New Zealand
▪ Winter energy margin of 30% for the South Island
There is one capacity security of supply standard:
▪ Winter capacity margin of 780MW for the North Island

Gas generation stays active for whole time horizon due to WEM and WCM
with combination of lower bound on activity.
18. • One of the best technology choice at low carbon prices,
reliable and clean
• In deep decarbonisation scenarios, emissions from
geothermal energy need to be accounted
• But only extremely high carbon prices put it behind CCS
power plants
• Needs to be better represented by emission intensity levels
Conclusions
Page 18
19. • Detailed modeling of all demand sectors:
−Further demand split to lower subcategories
oMore transport modes
oIndustry, agriculture and service sectors on subcategories
oBuilding types
−Technological enhancement
• Linking with EnergyLink power dispatch model
• Possible contribution to emission budget studies for
upcoming 5-year emission budget planning
