1. Asia : Center of growth and energy consumption

1-(1) World Energy Supply and Demand Outlook (by Region)

• Under steady economic growth assumptions, Asian energy consumption in 2040 will increase 1.8-fold

from the present level (from 5.1 billion tons in 2011 to 8.9 billion tons in 2040). Non-OECD countries

will account for about 90% of global energy consumption growth between 2011 and 2040.

1. Asia : Center of growth and energy consumption

1-(2) Primary Energy Demand by country (Asia)

• Though the vehicles’ fuel efficiency may be improved, and clean energy vehicles may expand, oil

demand in Asia will expand from 24.5 million B/D in 2011 to 43.0 million B/D in 2040, due mainly to its

escalating vehicle ownership. The share of China and India together in Asian oil demand will grow from

51% in 2011 to 62% in 2040.

• Even in the Adv. Tech. Scenario, projected oil demand saving will be equal to 19% of the Reference

Scenario in 2040.

1. Asia : Center of growth and energy consumption

1-(3) Energy independence is increasingly weakened in Asia

• Net oil import in Asia will expand from 17 mb/d (720 Mtoe) in 2011 to 35 mb/d (1,712 Mtoe) in 2040.

• Oil production in Asia (such as China, India, Indonesia and Malaysia) will marginally increase, not

keeping pace with the steady increase in oil demand. Therefore, net oil import ratio will reach 81% in

the Reference Scenario, and 77% in the Adv. Tech. Scenario by 2040 (compared with 69% in 2011).

• In 2013, oil prices remained high (more than $100/bbl)

for the third consecutive year since 2011.

• Average Brent crude oil price is forecasted at $105/B

(±$10/B) for 2014.

• Average Brent crude oil is

$109/bbl (WTI $98/bbl)

• The price has remained at a

historically very high level

since 2011.

• In November 2013, provisional

agreement was reached on

Iran’s nuclear development.

However, its impact on oil

prices is limited due to

persistent geopolitical

concerns over Syria and Iraq.

• In the US, WTI prices have

dropped since the summer of

2013 due to the easing

demand for oil caused by

increasing production of shale

oil. The difference with the

Brent price is now greater than

$10/bbl.

Dependence of Oil import

on the Middle East

Dependence of Natural gas import

on the Middle East

• Oil: US dependence on the Middle East continues to decline, while imports from Canada and Central

and South America are increasing. European dependence on the Middle East also continues to decline,

while imports from former USSR countries are increasing.

• Natural gas:Dependence on the Middle East is slightly increasing due to reinforced LNG export

capacity in the Middle East.

Enhanced Development Scenario : Changes in 2040 from the Reference Scenario

• As oil & gas industries expands, net energy import value drops and energy price falls, most national

economies benefit. The degree of benefits depends on output growth, industrial structure, oil and natural

gas industries’ portion of the economy, energy supply and demand structure, external demand changes

in trading partners, etc.

• Traditional energy producing countries will face downward pressures on their GDP due to a combination

of demand loss and price drops.

3. How to ensure energy security under those uncertainties

<Example of cooperation>:It is important to continue to hold

Energy and Environmental Forum for China and Japan

The above mentioned forum has been held with about 1000 business people and Government officials for seven years since 2006, in China, either in Tokyo or in Beijin, alternately. The forum has been hosted by Ministers of METI and NDRC (National Development and Reform Commission). The last meeting was held in Tokyo.

Various issues have been discussed such as policies, technology transfer, and experiences with respect to energy conservation and introduction of low and zero carbon. A large number of projects have been agreed.

Trends of cooperative projects:

(1) 5 projects → (2) 10 → (3) 19 → (4) 42 →

(5) 44 → (6) 51 → (7) 47 (Total 218 projects)

Unfortunately the meeting was not held last year(2013).

(APEC) APEC Oil & Natural gas Security Exercises

• Upon the instruction from APEC Energy

Ministers Meeting (EMM) in St. Petersburg

on June 2012, APERC has worked on

activities to improve the response to oil and

gas emergency situations in the APEC

region, including two emergency response

exercises in Thailand (jointly with other

ASEAN APEC economies) on September

2013 and in Indonesia on October 2013.

• The result of these activities will be reported

to the forthcoming APEC EMM in Beijing on

September 2014.

METHODOLOGY FOR THE EXERCISE

3-(4) Nuclear Power could expand safely based on lessons

from Fukushima

• Global nuclear power generation capacity in 2040 will grow by 235 GW in the Reference

Scenario and by 495 GW in the Advanced Technology Scenario. Asia will lead the growth

and account for nearly half of the global capacity in 2040 in the Advanced Technology

Scenario.

3. How to ensure energy security under those uncertainties

<Example of cooperation>: Formation of cooperative

framework for nuclear safety

(1) Elements to be considered

a. Types of cooperation : those among gov. (either promoting agencies or regulators) and /or operators

b. Nature of cooperation : EU like cooperation (Non-binding but virtually effective)

(2) Points of cooperation a. Establishing meaningful regulatory frame

b. Accident preparedness or crisis management

c. Risk communication

d. Enhancement of nuclear security and coping with terrorism

e. nuclear cycle

f. liability scheme

g. human resource development

4. Conclusion

1. Asia is a center of growth, but this means that Asia is a center of energy consumption 2. Energy landscape surrounding North Asia is full of uncertainty 3. Energy security in North Asia is getting more vulnerable unless regional cooperation is promoted to cope with recent uncertainty 4. At least four cooperation can be listed to be promoted; 1) Energy conservation => more energy independence 2) Emergency Response arrangement => helping each other among countries with similar characteristics 3) Elimination of Asian premium for LNG trade => cheaper and cleaner fuel 4) Ensuring nuclear safety => safer North Asia
