15. 3. NEW TRENDS ON THE WORLD ENERGY SECTOR

16. WORLD ECONOMY IN 2030
By 2030, the world economic growth would remain high. During this time, world average GDP growth would be around 4.6 percent and the amount of GDP would be around 380 trillion USD in 2050 comparing to 72 trillion USD in 2010.
Asia and African countries were projected to become one of the most rapid growing regions in the world in terms of population and GDP per capita.
By 2020, China will have overtaken the USA and considered as the world first biggest economy, whereas India will overtake China by 2050.
Institutional framework, politics and energy market stability would become key factors for sustainable growth.

Driven by sustainable growth on population, real income and by the impact of other factors, energy consumption is projecting to grow significantly in the near future
World commercial energy use
/billion toe-2030/

19. The safety of energy supply would become backbone for the world geopolitical policy on politic, economy and transport
Non OECD energy consumption is 68 percent higher by 2030, averaging 2.6 percent p.a. growth from 2010, and accounts for 93 percent of global energy growth.
The fuel mix changes relatively slowly, due to long asset lifetimes, but gas and non-fossil fuels gain share at the expense of coal and oil. The fastest growing fuels are renewables which are expected to grow at 8.2 percent however, it still have any chance to replace the traditional energy consumption.
Coal has been central of the recent rapid economic growth of developing countries such as China and India. China’s coal consumption is likely to raise to 53 percent by globally in 2030, thus it can conclude that the price of coal is still optimistic in the future.

20. Historically there has a strong correlation between income and electricity demand. But it was projected that there have a major changes in world energy production structure and the ratio of global electricity growth to GDP growth should fall to 0.7 in from 0.9 in
However the policy supports the continued rapid growth of non-fossil power generation-especially renewables, which attain a global share of 10 percent by 2030.
Due to increasing demand of energy consumption, favorable location on geological and transportation will determine the world energy market policy and sustainability of the world energy supply.

21. The interrelations of GDP growth and energy consumption are projecting to decrease
Electricity and income since 1990 /GDP per capita 2009 PPP, thousand /
World power generation

22. Strategic reserve of energy, diversification for utilizing resources are becoming the key factors for country’s economic development and political stability

23. From above, we may conclude:
Development gravity has been changing towards to the South Eastern Asia, South America and the Middle East. This trend is bringing development opportunity for Mongolia.
Issues on supplying the increasing demand of raw material for energy is determining further political, economic policy of the countries and competition to get energy resources are intensifying more than ever.
As a biggest market of energy, Chinese interest of cooperating with Mongolia in this regard is projected to be increase dramatically. Thus, mutually beneficial cooperation with China in energy sector will create opportunity to penetrate North East Asian energy market.
Russia’s policy on gas, oil, coal and its intention to become monopoly at international energy market throughout to those products, the instability of the Middle East would cause the uncertainty on energy supply .
From this perspective, we may draw as for Mongolia, it is essential to make a solution on comprising strategic reserve for energy, and to improve the energy distribution system.

24. 4. DEVELOPMENT OF MONGOLIAN ENERGY SECTOR AND IT’S TREND

25. DEVELOPMENT OF MONGOLIAN ENERGY SECTOR:
Goal of the energy sector of Mongolia during the last five year was to create an independent and guaranteed energy supply system in order to provide security in energy of the country, eliminate the dependency of the energy imports, improve the effectiveness of the energy production, decrease the loss, ensure the reliability of the regional electricity supply in order to attract the private sector participation in the energy sector, start the reform of the new sources by utilizing the resources of the renewable energy, and advance the energy sector as an effective and independent sector with reliable financial capacity. :
As a new development phase for Mongolian energy sector, main policies on energy sector over the next 5 years would be defined as to build high capacity power plants and high voltage transmission lines for connecting regions, basis for export oriented power industry would be established, environmentally friendly renewable resource would be utilized and energy sector would be shifted into the market scheme and become financially independent.

26. MONGOLIAN ENERGY SECTOR-TODAY
Energy production and distribution are growing constantly /million.kW/hour/
Even though the import is growing, the share on production is becoming comparatively small. /million kW/hour/

27. MONGOLIAN ENERGY SECTOR-TODAY
Energy consumption has been growing rapidly during the past years. /MB/
Subsidy from state budget remains high. /million MNT/

28. THE DEVELOPMENT TREND OF MONGOLIAN ENERGY SECTOR
Briefly illustrate mid and long term development policy on Mongolian energy sector as following:
To create independent, safe, reliable and integrated energy system,
To improve domestic generation of the energy resource and supply structure, to make up strategic reserve on energy,
To enhance regional status through to become energy exporting country,
To become large supplier of brown coal, coking coal, uranium and other final products
Through to developing non-traditional energy source, coal gasification and liquidation technology to create reliable supply on petroleum products,
To increase the usage of gas by step, develop supply chain of gas production and distribution,
To increase oil exploration and exploitation, develop domestic oil processing plants by regions,
To formulate state policy on coal sector and to reach the quality of coal and price with the international standard.

29. CHALLENGES
Accessibility of the infrastructure, especially energy supply is becoming the main concerning issues.
Energy sector is the only sector which didn’t transferred into the market scheme. Thus competitiveness with other sectors is poor and state participation remains high.
Due to the lack energy supply of unanticipated growth for electricity demand which followed by mining sector development and urbanization, there have a increasing risk on the dependent of electricity import.
Principally, regional cooperation over energy sector will have significant positive impact on future development, however, Mongolian energy sector is not ready for this change.
Due to insufficient and unfavorable investment environment in Mongolian energy sector, foreign investment intention to the sector remains lower.

30. CHALLENGES
Harsh weather and climate change, desertification, sensitive ecosystem, poor natural rehabilitation and high air pollution are demanding technological renovations in energy sector of Mongolia needs to be implemented.
Due to absence of legal environment on promoting energy efficiency and saving, energy losses is high and no intention to improve energy efficiency.
Due to absence of domestic oil refinery and increasing demand on petroleum products remain high dependency on imported products.

48. CONCLUSIONS AND COMMNETS
It is possible to take actions for controlling the price and quality of energy products through to modifying the structure of supply and distribution chain of energy products, improving the monitoring would on the one hand, to maintain sustainable economic growth and the other hand, it could prevent a shocks that caused by commodity price fluctuation.
However, budget investment of energy sector has been increasing dramatically during the last several years, due to lack of research on investment return, incompletion of the project and dead expenses become a critical issues. Thus, in a wider extent, it is necessary to take more attention onto development policy and planning.
Comprehensive state policy on primary energy products such as petroleum, coal is needs to be implemented shortly and we see that foremost goal of Mongolian energy sector is to address energy dependency and to become “Self sufficient”.
