4. Electricity generation by fuel type, Scotland
The recent path
Electricity generation by fuel type, Scotland
Slide helps illustrate the extent to which make-up of electricity generation across Scotland has changed over last decade or so.
Coal and gas falling away, with closure of C and L, and the de-rating of Peterhead – although that station remains operational, and important in terms of grid stability and resilience.
Ref to phasing out of coal and extent to which renewables have totally changed economics of conventional stations.
Renewables trajectory driven by SG legislation – the Renewables Obligation – which requires suppliers to source increasing amount of power from renewable sources.

5. The recent path
Final energy demand reduction, Scotland, to 2014

6. Developing a whole system view
Final Energy consumption Energy consumption by fuel type

7. Charting a new course – developing a ‘whole system’ view
Yearly pattern of energy use - Scotland

8. Charting a new course – strategic imperatives
Yearly pattern of energy use - Scotland
Reduce heat demand
Improve energy efficiency – household and commercial
Decarbonise heat supply

9. Charting a new course – strategic imperatives
Yearly pattern of energy use - Scotland
Increase supply of clean electricity
Permit established low carbon technologies to compete for improved consumer outcome
Diversify supply mix, with innovation and development support for newer technologies

10. Charting a new course – strategic imperatives
Yearly pattern of energy use - Scotland
Reduce use of traditional transport fuels

11. Charting a new course – strategic imperatives
Yearly pattern of energy use - Scotland
New low carbon energy storage capacity (heat and electricity)

14. Explains Scotland's current and potential future energy system
What is it for?
The Strategy…
Explains Scotland's current and potential future energy system
Guides future decisions of the Scottish Government
Establishes a 2050 vision for energy in Scotland…

15. The Strategy sets two new and ambitious targets for 2030:
2030 whole-system targets
The Strategy sets two new and ambitious targets for 2030:

16. Illustrative 2050 scenarios
The Strategy considers two indicative scenarios for the energy system in Scotland in 2050:
An electrified future
A hydrogen future
Both scenarios consistent with Scotland’s climate targets and informed by sector specific analysis and ‘TIMES’ modelling
Designed to help us understand what infrastructure and behaviours might be required under different future scenarios

17. Scotland’s energy priorities
Consumer engagement and protection
Energy efficiency
System security and flexibility
Innovative local
energy systems
Renewable and low carbon solutions
Oil and gas industry strengths

18. Scotland’s Energy Efficiency Programme (SEEP)
What’s next?
SEEP Routemap – May 2018
Will set out direction and milestones
LHEES and District Heating
Legislation – if necessary
Continuing partnership
Warm Homes Bill
Building standards

19. Scotland’s Emissions Reduction Targets
Scotland’s Climate Change Plan
Requirement of the Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2009
Policies and proposals for reducing emissions by 66% by 2032 across all sectors
Allocates emission reductions across economy (TIMES)
Articulates the on the ground changes that Scottish Government will take forward with its partners
Published 28 February 2018

20. Scottish Energy Efficiency Programme – May 2018
Next steps
The Strategy represents a free-standing companion document to the Climate Change Plan
Scottish Energy Efficiency Programme – May 2018
Where appropriate, we will set out further detail in sector Route Maps, technical papers, and additional policy documents in the coming years
We will publish an Annual Energy Statement to ensure we are tracking progress and adapting our approach in response to major trends and developments at UK, European and Global levels
