It is a new era for American energy. In 2015, increased use of sustainable energy set the stage for a U.S. triple play of carbon reductions, cost savings and economic growth.
Combined heat and_power_
Combined heat and power (CHP) is a technically viable source of energy that can significantly reduce carbon emissions. CHP works by capturing waste heat from power generation and using it for other purposes, like heating. This improves energy efficiency from around 13% to up to 87%. Widespread adoption of CHP technology in the US could cut energy demand by 23% and greenhouse gas emissions by 100 million metric tons per year. However, barriers like regulatory issues and high initial costs are slowing broader implementation of CHP. More research is needed to understand how to address these barriers and incentivize the energy sector to embrace this opportunity.
Kyoto protocol with respect to Pakistan- ppt
This document discusses Pakistan's potential adoption of the Kyoto Protocol to address climate change. It outlines several steps Pakistan could take to implement the protocol, including identifying knowledge of the protocol, developing demonstration projects, providing incentives, and developing renewable energy resources through various government agencies and financing institutions. While the Kyoto Protocol aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, on its own it may not provide a real solution to climate change issues. Developing countries will need to take a leadership role in developing durable climate change solutions.

- Major opportunities for efficiency exist across sectors like buildings, transportation, and industry. For example, more efficient buildings could save over $1 trillion in energy costs over 10 years while creating millions of new jobs.
- Barriers to greater efficiency include upfront costs, lack of data and performance transparency, and misaligned incentives across the value chain. Overcoming these barriers could unlock a $0.7 trillion investment opportunity and 27% energy savings.
Renewable Energy Global Overview
This overview is offering general information regarding renewable energy generation and its trends in the last 10 years
Meeting the targets to keep warming below 2°c a new us pathway
The US "Clean Power Plan" is insufficient for a 2°C pathway.
We need:
- Holistic and stringent Federal policies to attain targets;
- Threefold approach where renewable electricity plays a key role;
- Policies need to promote new energy investments;
- Immediate action to minimize the costs;
At the UN Climate Summit in Paris, policy-makers, businesses and financiers together can make the change happen.
Renewable energy would save eu trillions by 2050
The EU Commission forecast that switching to renewable energy could save the EU 3 trillion euros by 2050 and create 500,000 new jobs by 2020. A report commissioned by environmental groups laid out a plan to make the EU's energy supply nearly carbon-free by 2050 through energy efficiency, investing in wind and solar power, and phasing out fossil fuel subsidies. The report estimates the cost of the transition would be 99 billion euros but would save over 3 trillion euros in fuel costs and create new jobs.
CCXG Forum, March 2021, Arunabha Ghosh
1) Renewable energy capacity in India has continued growing during the pandemic, reaching over 92GW in total installed capacity as of February 2021, with solar and wind making up the majority.
2) India's transition to electric vehicles represents a $206 billion opportunity by 2030 in terms of investment, jobs growth, and sustainability benefits like reduced oil imports and emissions.
3) Small and medium enterprises are important for India's economy, employing 40% of the workforce and contributing 25% to GDP, but many struggle with unreliable electricity access. Increased use of clean energy could create over 1 million new rural livelihoods and savings.
CCXG Global Forum, March 2021, Rocio Rodriguez
Argentina's energy transition goals aim to limit emissions to 359 MtCO2e by 2030 through productive transformation, ecosystem preservation, sustainable transport, and a circular economy. The commitment also pursues eradicating poverty through a just transition that addresses population needs and secures integrated sustainable development without burdening future generations. Argentina will focus on energy efficiency, natural gas as a transition fuel, new nuclear/hydro power plants, hydrogen production, and renewable energies/distributed generation by 2030. Guiding principles for the transition include sustainability, equity, participation, and innovation to achieve stable, federal, sovereign, dynamic, and inclusive energy access promoting energy security and minimizing inequalities.
The role of auctions in the energy transition
1. Auctions are increasingly being used globally as a renewable energy policy tool to aid the energy transition away from conventional sources towards renewable sources like solar and wind.
2. The benefits of limiting global warming to below 2°C, such as improved health and reduced costs from externalities, outweigh the incremental costs of transitioning to renewable energy by 2 to 5 times by 2050.
3. Auctions have helped drive down prices of solar and wind energy significantly, with average solar prices falling from $250/MWh in 2010 to $50/MWh in 2016 through competition, and average wind prices falling from $80/MWh to $40/MWh over the same period.
WWF study-review
WWF-Brazil published a study in 2020 called the "Sustainable Power Agenda" examining Brazil's energy production paths and challenges. In 2005, the government started prioritizing fossil fuel plants like diesel, coal and natural gas, approving 3,286 MW of capacity. This represented a 2.8% increase in Brazil's carbon dioxide emissions and 11% increase for the electric sector. As a result, WWF-Brazil concluded that choices in Brazil's electricity sector over the next 15 years would be critical for energy security, economic competitiveness and environmental sustainability.
