4. 2003-09-Yan When are you going to pay now or future ?

5. 2003-09-Yan Sustainbility and sustaiable development Sustainability: Refers to whether a process can be continued indefinitely without depleting the energy or material resources on which it depends. Sustainability: Refers to whether a process can be continued indefinitely without depleting the energy or material resources on which it depends. sustainable development: Development that provides people with a better life without sacrificing or depleting resources or causing environmental impacts that will undercut future generations. sustainable development: Development that provides people with a better life without sacrificing or depleting resources or causing environmental impacts that will undercut future generations. sustainable society. A society that functions in a way so as not to deplete energy or material resources on which it depends. sustainable society. A society that functions in a way so as not to deplete energy or material resources on which it depends.

6. 2003-09-Yan Three dimensions of sustainable development development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs The economy growth growth financial stability The environment The social welfare employment social and culture Energy

7. 2003-09-Yan Challenges to sustainable development n Global energy consumption: developing countries, e.g., nearly 2 billion people lack access to electricity. could be 5 billion in 2050. n Local and regional pollution from fossil fuels (developing countries) + climate change (developed countries) n Security of energy supply n Reform and privatisation of energy market: power energy policy-making is changing fast. Just as market, more and more issues require regional or global co- ordination. n Improvements in energy efficiency and reductions in the cost of renewable energy sources

8. 2003-09-Yan Energy Energy plays an important role for all above sustainable developments. We need a sustainable energy system n Sustainable Energy Systems: –improving energy efficiency –switching to environmentally less harmful fuels, such as renewable energies –the global equilibrium of energy production and consumption

9. 2003-09-Yan From Source to Service Sources Fossil fuels n coal n oil n natural gas Renewables n Solar n Biomass n Hydro n Nuclear Services n light n warm/cool n transportation n …... Energy Technologies Energy Technologies Energy Technologies are supplying the services

10. 2003-09-Yan An example of energy chain from extraction to energy service

12. 2003-09-Yan Energy supply in the world by fuel (sources, IEA, 2002)

13. 2003-09-Yan TOTAL PRIMARY ENERGY SUPPLY BY REGION

14. 2003-09-Yan Energy comsumption of the world by fuel

15. 2003-09-Yan Total energy consumption by region

16. 2003-09-Yan Outlook 2020 by fuel 12 400 Mtoe (2010) 14 800 Mtoe (2010)

17. 2003-09-Yan Outlook 2020 by region

27. What happens in Nature when energy provides services ? A “heat engine model” n What have we paid for the services? n Have we ever paid? n Forgot the nature? Nature (Source) Nature (Sink) Society service/ energy resources wastes Nature (Sink)

28. 2003-09-Yan Climate Change !

29. 2003-09-Yan CO2 Emissions by fuel

30. 2003-09-Yan CO2 emissions by region

31. 2003-09-Yan

32. Reason 1 - increase emissions: energy production, industrial processes and transport. The industrialised countries consequently must bear the main responsibility of reducing emissions of carbon dioxide.

33. 2003-09-Yan Reason 2: decrease carbon sink cutting down forest uisng for or built-up areas, urbanisation, roads etc

34. 2003-09-Yan Future

36. Who is responsible ?

37. 2003-09-Yan

39. Data in 1995 Note: emission right !

40. 2003-09-Yan

41. Future CO2 Stabilization Targets

42. 2003-09-Yan ？？ How to manage carbon ？？ to reach the target Options focused on fossil fuels: Options focused on fossil fuels: - reduce emissions - capture emissions

43. 2003-09-Yan A New Concept: n The state of art: based on the fossil fuels. --> –it is possible to reduce emissions –but impossible to avoid emissions = reduce increasing emissions n New idea: renewable (bioenergy) + removal technology n New technical solution: Biomass (= CO2 neutral) + capture CO2 ==>> Negative CO2 emission n Managing Climate Risk

44. 2003-09-Yan Advantages of Managing Climate Risk n Increase the carbon sink by increase use of biomass to substitute fossil fuels n Cost Effective CO 2 Capture Results in Science Oct 26 2001

45. 2003-09-Yan Bioenergy + CO 2 Removal energy products biofuels ashes (minerals) carbon dioxide CO 2 CO2 removal

46. 2003-09-Yan Comparison between fossil fuel based and biomass based CO 2 capture systems

47. © J. Yan-2003-09 Strategy implementation requires Technology Innovation
