Stabilization Induced Low Carbon Transition

  • There is no silver bullet
  • Need to develop portfolio of technologies
  • Significant stabilization induced transitions

in the second half of 21st century

  • Stabilization induced technological change

would impose sizable GDP losses

  • Technology & financial transfers are vital

for a cost-effective and fair stabilization regime

  • Type of endogenous development path

matters to quantity and cost of mitigation

  • Cost-effective Stabilization, e.g. at 550

ppmv level, would require mitigation in India even in case of low endogenous emissions scenarios

  • Low endogenous emissions trajectory

would result from technology innovations and sustainable actions

  • High economic growth does not mean high

emissions

Energy Security: How choices matter to climate?

  • Domestic Coal – High Emissions
  • Nuclear Fission – Carbon Free, Safety Issues
  • Wind – Limited Potential, Supply stability
  • Solar – High upfront cost, Supply stability, Storage
  • Bio-fuels

Ethanol – Food Security, Water Stress Bio-Diesel – Land Restoration, Employment

Indian Bio-diesel Mission

  • Phase I (2003-07):Demonstration Projects
  • Crop: Jatropha Curcas
  • 400,000 hectares of land
  • Participation by Oil Companies
  • Phase II (2007-2012)
  • Self Sustaining Expansion of Biodiesel
  • Production target 1.2 MT of oil/ hectare

Conclusions

  • Strategies for low carbon future should begin with shaping

endogenous development path

  • Stabilization would require mitigation even in low endogenous

emission scenarios

  • Achieving cost-effective global transition to low carbon future

would call for substantial mitigation and adaptation actions in Developing Countries

  • Stabilization would significantly alter energy system
  • Policies and measures for achieving “National Sustainable

Development Goals” provide climate friendly opportunities

  • Aligning development and climate actions would accrue multiple

dividends from co-benefits/spillovers and reduce ‘climate burden’
