SESSION 1: PBL-Ton Manders land water energy nexus presentation - CIRCLE workshop oct. 2014

Citation preview

Second ad-hoc technical workshop on CIRCLE, 2-3 October 2014, OECD, Paris

1

Economic Impacts of the Land-Water-Energy Nexus

Exploring its feedbacks on the global economy

The land-water-energy nexus Fritz Hellman, Tom Kram, Ton Manders

Content

• What is the nexus?

• Main bottlenecks

• Modelling framework

• Preliminary results

The nexus

Land-Water-Energy nexus

Strong linkages between land, water and energy

Competition for the same resources

Tension grow over time

An integrated analysis is needed

A desaggregated analysis is needed

Preliminary results: groundwater & irrigation Step 1:

– Baseline with plenty groundwater for irrigation

Step 2:

– Simulation without groundwater for irrigation.

– Agricultural production losses (IMAGE)

– “Shock” ENV-Linkages with production losses

– Economic impact of poduction losses (ENV-Linkages)

Step 3:

– Compare regional + sectoral production, trade, GDP, etc. between baseline and simulation variant-> cost of inaction!

Next: other simulations Bottlenecks regarding water availability:

– Water allocation variant

– Water efficiency techniques variant

Bottlenecks regarding land availability

– Land degradation variant

– Land supply variant

Other bottlenecks:

– Ozone variant

– Climate change variant
