Benefits from least life cycle cost compared to current policies
Implementing the LLCC scenarios would: reduce OECD residential
electricity demand by 35% and avoid 525 Mt-CO 2 emissions in 2020
at a net cost of: -$66/Tonne-CO 2 in OECD-North America
-$66/Tonne-CO 2 in OECD-North America -169 Euro/Tonne-CO 2 in
OECD-Europe -169 Euro/Tonne-CO 2 in OECD-Europe reduce global
lighting electricity demand by US$156 billion and 971 Mt CO 2 in
2030 at a net cost of: -US$158/Tonne-CO 2 globally

autonomously? Missing or partial information on EE performance and
lack of common metrics Missing or partial information on EE

But what about free-riders? But what about free-drivers? Waides 2
nd Law of Energy Efficiency: Waides 2 nd Law of Energy Efficiency:
for every free-rider there is an at least as equal, but opposite
free-driver (spillover) And the rebound effect? And the rebound
effect? It exists but is rarely large (energy service expenditure
is not hypothecated and is a small proportion of GDP) treat by
applying some simple adjustment factor (e.g. say 5% for
refrigerators and 50% for space conditioning)

Low first cost rules! Mercury Vapour Vs. High Pressure Sodium
Street Lamps Lamp costs = 2.5 Euro to 12.5 Euro (product price from
750 Euro to 815 Euro) Note: lifetime HPL=3yr and HPS=4yr Energy
consumption from 548 kWh to 328 kWh = 40% less CO2 emissions Life
cycle costs from 2861 Euro to 2266 Euro Benefit to cost ratio = 9.2
Simple payback less than 3 years BUT Mercury Vapour outsell High
Pressure Sodium!!! Switch HPL 125W HPS 70W
Slide 27

Could CDM finance high efficacy street lights? How do we know they
wouldnt have installed HPS anyway? Be conservative: only allow 50%
of savings benefits to be counted First year incremental cost is 75
Euro per lamp (110 Euro/20yr) CO2 savings of from 2.5 to 5 tonnes
per lamp (depend on fuel mix) but only credit 1.25 to 2.5 tonnes in
calculation 100% abatement cost = 40 to 80 Euros/tonne (at 50% CER)
Energy bill savings = 250 to 750 Euro per lamp (depends on tariff)
If CER cost too high let CDM pay the first cost increment, but then
be repaid through the bill savings CDM loans 75 Euro per HPS lamp.
Energy bill savings used to pay back loan within from 2 to 7 years
(depending on tariff) Municipality has a net benefit of from 154 to
682 Euro per lamp

ConclusionsConclusions Energy efficiency presents a huge under-
exploited cost-effective GHG saving opportunity Energy efficiency
presents a huge under- exploited cost-effective GHG saving
opportunity It merits being the single greatest focus of GHG
abatement strategies in near-term It merits being the single
greatest focus of GHG abatement strategies in near-term If mined
effectively it allows economic growth with net reductions in GHG
emissions in developed economies and much slower growth in GHG
emissions in rapidly developing economies If mined effectively it
allows economic growth with net reductions in GHG emissions in
developed economies and much slower growth in GHG emissions in
rapidly developing economies CDM has to make EE projects a major
focus CDM has to make EE projects a major focus

How can the CDM manage EE? Purity vs. action? the potentials are so
big, the costs are so low and the needs so high that action must be
the near term priority CDM needs a fast track to EE project
approval Purity vs. action? the potentials are so big, the costs
are so low and the needs so high that action must be the near term
priority CDM needs a fast track to EE project approval How could
this be done? How could this be done? Compartmentalise identify
narrower groups of clear win-win categories of EE projects, set
rules and invite project submissions on a fast track (guidance,
speed and certainty are paramount for would be applicants)
Simultaneously, work on widening the project categories and
developing the appraisal methodologies Allow project submissions
outside the above framework on a slower track

EE, CDM and Policy Environment Recognise that EE works best if the
measures are supported by an unambiguous and comprehensive policy
framework Recognise that EE works best if the measures are
supported by an unambiguous and comprehensive policy framework E.g.
effective energy labels give market visibility and a common
performance benchmark to efficient products, this creates the
environment where a CDM project might support the manufacture of
such products and the benefits can be both leveraged and more
easily determined (the base-case is clearer) E.g. effective energy

industrial processes etc. The same can be said of buildings,
