Facilitating Energy Efficiency
• Almost all countries exhibit declining energy intensity trends for the economic sectors; most countries have some initiatives to promote energy efficiency in these sectors
• Technology integration, support, and financing risks are high
• Adoption is driven by quality and productivity increases
• New investments in power, industry, transport and building infrastructure can be substantially more efficient than existing stock; economic growth is powering a rapid increase in these sectors, and associated emissions.

Industry: Emissions Contribution
• Globally, 50% of industry energy consumption made up by– Iron & steel– Chemicals– Petroleum refining– Pulp & paper– Cement– Huge variations between countries– Small industries important in many developing
countries.
3.9
Industry
• Unique opportunities for reducing GHGs because process change with energy efficiency benefits often driven by economic and organizational considerations.
• Shortage of capital is a problem in many cases, but gradual improvement in efficiency is likely as investment takes place and new plants are built.
• Nature of industrial decision-making implies that energy-cost savings may either be dominant or secondary in specific technical actions.
• Potential for large efficiency gains due to rapid stock turnover expected in developing countries.

3.11
Industry: Technical Options
• Nature of decision-making in industry demands two classes of options:– Those for which energy cost savings are the
dominant decision making criteria --“energy-cost-sensitive”
– Those for which broader criteria such as overall production cost and product quality are more important – “non energy-cost-sensitive”

3.22
Background.
• The transport sector is perhaps the biggest challenge for GHG mitigation.
• GHG emissions from the Transport sector are growing more rapidly than any other sector.
• Developing country transport emissions are growing faster than in other regions of the world.
• Technical and fuel switching solutions for GHG mitigation are particularly challenging in the transport sector.
3.23
Transport: Technical Options
• Fuel Efficiency Improvements for Vehicles– Changes in vehicle and engine design (e.g. hybrids)
• Alternative Fuel Sources– hydrogen or electricity from renewable power– biomass fuels, CNG, LPG, etc.– fuel cell technology
• Infrastructure and System Changes– traffic and fleet management systems– mass transportation systems and improved land-use planning.– modal shifts
• Transport Demand Management– Reducing travel demand (e.g. through land use changes,
telecommunications, etc.)
3.24
Transport: Mitigation Measures
• Market-based Instruments– increase in fuel tax – incentives for mass transport systems – fiscal incentives and subsides for alternative fuels and
vehicles– incentives through vehicle taxes and license fees for more
efficient vehicles
• Regulatory Instruments– fuel economy standards – vehicle design or alternative fuel mandates
• Direct Investment by Governments
3.25
Transport: Starting Questions for Analysis
• Overall: how can societal preferences be matched with transport options to lower GHG emissions?
• Demand forecasting: how much travel or freight movement is expected?• Mode choice: what mix of transport modes will be used to provide
passenger and freight services?• Vehicle stock analysis: what is the impact of changing technology (fuel
economy, fuel type, emission controls) on fuel use and emissions?• Logistics management: how can activities be reorganized to reduce
transport use?• Transport management: how should infrastructure and vehicle flow be
managed to reduce congestion or improve efficiency?• Transport planning: what investments are needed to meet growing
demand and improve efficiency?

3.28
Energy Supply: Conventional
• The conventional energy supply system consists of the following sectors:– Oil– Gas– Coal– Nuclear materials– Electric power– Biomass
• While the electric power sector is often the largest contributor to GHG emissions, all elements of the fuel cycle need to be considered when assessing the mitigation potential in this sector.

3.36
Energy Supply: Solar Photovoltaics
• Solar panels using silicon PV conversion have efficiencies in excess of 15 percent, and thin film modules are typically 10 percent.
• PV panels are available in sizes from a few watts to 300 watts and produce DC electricity in the range of 12 to 60 volts, and can be used for applications such as:– charging electric lanterns and laptop computers (4 - 6 watts);– packaged systems (20 - 100+ watts) for off-grid residential lighting and
entertainment (radio/ cassette, TV/VCR); and– grid-connected power (hundreds of kilowatts to a megawatt or more).
• Current costs make solar PVs prohibitive in most situations.• Can be attractive in niche applications, especially for off-grid
electrification.• Good prospects for further increases in efficiency and reductions in
costs.
3.37
Energy Supply: Changes in Wind Electricity Generation Costs in
Denmark• Wind power accounts for
0.3% of global installed generation capacity.
• It has increased by an average of 25% annually in recent years.
• The cost of wind has fallen dramatically, following a classic learning curve.
3.38
Energy Supply: Biomass
• For mitigation, focus should be on renewable biomass, which has no net CO2 emissions.
• Modern conversion of biomass into electricity, liquid and gaseous fuels shows great promise.
• In addition, co-firing 10-15% biomass with coal can reduce GHG emissions
In developing countries, biomass is a major source of energy services for the poor.

Module 3f
Solid Waste and Wastewater
3.41
Solid Waste and Wastewater: Introduction
• Methane (CH4) is emitted during the anaerobic decomposition of the organic content of solid waste and wastewater.
• There are large uncertainties in emissions estimates, due to the lack of information about the waste management practices employed in different countries, the portion of organic wastes that decompose anaerobically and the extent to which these wastes will ultimately decompose.
• About 20–40 Mt CH4 (110–230 Mt C), or about 10% of global CH4 emissions from human-related sources, are emitted from landfills and open dumps annually.
• Another 30-40 Mt CH4 (170–230 Mt C) annual emissions are from domestic and industrial wastewater disposal.
• It is important to remember that the Materials life-cycle has both energy and non-energy related emissions.

3.43
Technical Options
• Source Reduction– Recycling– Composting– Incineration (including off-set for
electricity generation)– Avoidance/waste prevention
• Methane Recovery from Solid-waste Disposal– Solid waste disposal facilities (including
off-sets for electricity generation and co-generation; gas recovery)
• Methane Recovery and/or Reduction from Wastewater– Wastewater treatment plants (including
off-sets for electricity generation and co-generation; gas recovery)

3.44
Measures
• Regulatory standards for waste disposal and wastewater management
• Provision of market incentives for improved waste management and recovery of methane
• Voluntary program to encourage adoption of technical options
3.45
Barriers to Methane Recovery
• Lack of Information: Lack of awareness of relative costs and effectiveness of alternative technical options, lack of experience with low-cost recently developed anaerobic processes
• Economics: Equipment and infrastructure may not be readily affordable.
• State of Current Landfills: Existing waste disposal "system" may actually be an open dump or an effluent stream with no treatment and no capital or operating expenses. It is less economical to recover CH4 from smaller dumps and landfills.
• Conflicting Interests: Different agencies may be responsible for energy generation, compost supply, and waste management. CH4 recovery and use can introduce new actors into the waste disposal process, potentially disturbing the current balance of economic and political power in the community.

Baseline Emissions from AgricultureCH4 Emissions from Flooded Rice Fields
Overview
- Decomposition of organic material in flooded rice fields produces CH4.
- CH4 escapes to the atmosphere primarily by diffusive transport through rice plants.
- Flux rates are highly variable, both spatially and temporally -- depending on water management, soil temperature, soil type and cultivation practices.
- The method is revised in the Revised 1996 IPCC Guidelines
3.69
Emissions from AgricultureCH4 Emissions from Flooded Rice Fields
Definitions
- Growing season length: The average (for the country or subcategory) length of time in days, from seeding or transplanting until harvest
- Continuously flooded: Fields inundated for the duration of the growing season
- Intermittently flooded: Inundated part of the time
- Dry (upland): Fields seldom flooded during the growing season
- Harvested area: Accounts for multiple cropping per year; harvested area=>cultivated area.

Estimating Emissions from AgricultureCH4 Emissions from Flooded Rice Fields
Apply to each water management regime
Emissions (Gg CH4) = Harvested Area (Mha/yr)

Recommended Methodology:
N2O Emissions (103 tN/yr) = i(Fmn + Fon + Fbnf) x Ci x 44/28)
Where:• i = low, medium, high
• Fmn = amount of mineral fertilizer applied
• F = amount of organic material (animal manure and crop residues) applied
• Fbnf = amount of biological N-fixation added
• C = Emission coefficient
