How big is a wedge?Examples of Lower Carbon Slices Scale for 1GtC Reduction by 2050

Increased energy efficiency across the economy 2 billion gasoline/diesel cars achieving 60 mpggy y y g g pg

Fuel switching natural gas displacing coal for power 1400GW fuelled by natural gas instead of coal

Solar PV or Wind replaces coal for power 1000x scale up PV, 70x scale up for wind

Biofuels to replace petroleum based fuels 200x106 ha growing area (equals US agricultural land)

Carbon Capture and Geological Storage CO2 captured from 700 1GW coal plants; storage = 3,500x In Salah/Sleipner or CCS applied to 5% of new power growthp pp p g

Carbon Free Hydrogen for transport 1 billion H2 carbon free cars; H2 from fossil fuels with CO2capture and storage or from renewables or nuclear

Nuclear displaces coal for power 700 1GW plants (2x current)

Bio-sequestration in forests and soil Increased planted area and/or reduce deforestation

US$16 trillion will be needed to meet global energy demand next 30 years

US$1 5 trillion of that for coal fired power US$1.5 trillion of that for coal-fired power generation

Princeton University (Sokolow) / Columbia University (Sachs Lackner)(Sachs, Lackner)

Carbon emission charges of about US$100/tC (i.e. about US$30/tCO2) would enable commercialisation of CCS and all other commercialisation of CCS and all other necessary technologies

Shell / RWE 2

Early projects likely to require a level of support equivalent to $100 – 150 / tonne CO

In the near term —In the near term —A range of support mechanisms are availableare availableType of mechanism Examples

Mandated requirements for new plant to be low

• EU suggestion that all new plant be low carbon from 2020 (EU ETS would cover emissions from existing as for new plant to be low

carbon2020 (EU ETS would cover emissions from existing as well as new plant)

• Portfolio standards in US

Carbon pricing • Tradable allowances• Taxes• Hybrids of taxes and tradable allowances • Potentially supported by other financial instruments

Industrial policy support • Capital Grants• Tax breaks• Government or public utility equity• Government or public utility equity

Support for new technologies, especially renewables

• Reserved market (may be implemented with tradable certificates)

• Premium price set by regulator (e.g. feed-in tariffs) • Premium price set by auction, tender or negotiation

Page 24: Abu Dhabi and California Projects; the Commercial Aspects ...

The support mechanisms can be The support mechanisms can be funded in different ways

Customers

• electricity prices are higher due to the carbon price• additional costs from quantity obligations (e.g. Renewable Portfolio Standards or

Green Certificate Schemes)• the cost of premium priced contracts (e.g. feed in tariffs) passed through

Tax payers• general or earmarked taxation may fund support as grants, premium price

payments or tax breaks (capital or per MWh support)

• separate tax or levy on the retail price or wires business charges

Tax payers

l t d b f ll ti f ll b i t d b f

• government or publicly owned utilities may provide cheap capital (debt or equity)

Shareholders• surplus created by free allocation of allowances can be appropriated by means of

auctions, windfall taxes or price floor arrangements and channelled to clean generation

Summary

Contribution to tackling climate change from CCS can be considerable

Early industrial scale commercial projects ready to be developedto be developed

Government and policy incentives needed to enable construction and operation of these early plants

Long term instruments such as a higher carbon price should eventually be sufficient to support widespread deployment of CCS
