3. Mauritius – pioneer for testing of CLEW modelling tool Small island with clear boundaries Producer and exporter of sugar (occupying 80 % cultivated land area) Dependent on fuel imports for its energy requirement Highly vulnerable to climate change Data availability  Government vision for making Mauritius a sustainable island focussing on reducing dependence of fossil fuel and reducing GHG emission … 2011-10-20 CLEW - Integrated Climate, Land Use, Energy and Water Modelling 3/21

4. Aim of the case study The CLEW modelling framework was used to assess the energy, water and land-use system in the context of different scenarios in Mauritius: 1.Reduce gasoline imports by producing ethanol, displacing sugar exports 2. Considering different energy system alternatives and land use options (e.g. different crops) under uncertain future dryer climatic conditions (lower rainfall ) 2011-10-20 CLEW - Integrated Climate, Land Use, Energy and Water Modelling 4/21

16. MODELLING RESULTS WHEN CHANGING THE LOCAL SUGAR PRODUCTION TO ETHANOL TO BE USED IN THE LOCAL TRANSPORT SYSTEM … Less Resource ImportsLess local GHG emission Potentially increased Income Gasoline imports are reduced as ethanol replaces gasoline for the transport fleet. Small increases in coal and oil imports occur as previously available bagasse for electricity generation is now used for ethanol production. GHGs are saved through ethanol powered local transport – slightly more emissions are produced through increased electricity production with fossil fuels. Reduced gasoline imports are illustrated here as negative costs. These reduced costs are higher then the lost revenue through ”lost” sugar export.

17. Case Study Mauritius – Results: Questions:  How changes the local energy balance in case local biofuel production under different price and technology scenarios?  What are local and externally induced GHG emissions (taking into account fossil fuel savings and land use changes)?  What are the changes in total costs?  What are the influences to the local water balance? Some Findings:  Increasing water intensity in the agriculture will result in substantially increased energy demand (pumping).  Current trends of decreased rainfall may make other crops interesting for the island.  Induced external land use changes somewhere else have the largest effect on the overall GHG balance (substitution of sugar cane) 2011-10-20 CLEW - Integrated Climate, Land Use, Energy and Water Modelling 17/21
