GLOBAL HUB FOR
DOUBLING THE SHARE OF
RE IN GLOBAL ENERGY MIX
BY 2030

REmap 2030
Pathways for a doubling of the share of renewable
energy in the global energy mix by 2030 (1 of 3 SE4ALL
objectives)
Technology options to meet the objective
Cost and benefits of the identified REMAP options
Policies that are needed to make it happen
Opportunities for international cooperation to achieve this
objective – e.g. regional integration in Africa
Evaluating who can do what by when to make it happen9
REmap 2030 coverage
26 countries representing 75% of global energy demand in 2030
Represents 58% of world population in 2012, 56% in 2030
60% of global GDP in 2012
Country results are aggregated and extrapolated to global findings10

The global RE share can reach
and exceed 30% by 2030
There is a need to unleash innovation (RE+), notably for end-use sectors

Prices of biomass (DRAFT)
Domestic biomass prices
(in USD/GJ) (blue arrows):
Africa: <1 (residues)
Asia: 2-3 (residues)
S.Am: 5-7 (energy crop)
N.Am: 6-8 (energy crop)
Africa: 8-10 (energy crop)
Export prices (in USD/GJ)
(orange arrows):
Asia: 3-5 (residues)
Europe: 6-8 (fuel wood)
Africa: 10-13 (energy crop)
See pages 159-170 of the DRAFT roadmap
Next Steps
• Expand REmap coverage to include more countries
• Country level dialogue of findings
• Sectoral roadmaps (transport)
• Refine socio-economic analysis (economic growth,
trade and fuel price effects, etc)
• Identify best practice in energy transitions
• IRENA as SE4ALL hub
15
• “The Africa Clean Energy Corridor will
provide the continent with the opportunity to
leapfrog into a sustainable energy future,”
Adnan Z. Amin
• Supported by energy planning and modelling
of RE penetration in the West Africa Power
Pool, the Southern Africa Power Pool, and
the East Africa Power Pool (to be published
in Q2 2014)
From Cairo to Cape Town

IRENA ABU DHABI FUND FOR
DEVELOPMENT (ADFD)
• Concessional financing of up to USD 350 million for seven cycles
• First tranche of projects with combined total capacity of 35 MW
announced in January 2014 amounting to USD 41 million, covering
projects in Ecuador, Sierra Leone, the Maldives, Mauritania, Samoa,
and Mali
• Second cycle has started

Biomass Data Quality
• Scarcity and quality issues
• Not all uses captured in current energy balances
• Great uncertainty on the actual levels of biomass consumption
e.g. a ±30% significantly changes the picture for Africa.
