Cleaner, More Efficient Mobility: the role of fuels and vehicles Elisa Dumitrescu, UNEP DTIE Transport Unit, Moscow, June 2012 UNEP Transport Unit: Key Programmes Avoid: Share the Road Shift: BRT, Low Carbon Mobility Plans: India Improve: Partnership for Clean Fuels and Vehicles, Global Fuel Economy Initiative Cars a growing reality in emerging and developing markets… Number of vehicles * 1000 • 890 million today…over 2.5 billion by 2050 • 90%+ of growth in developing, emerging economies • Opportunity for energy efficiency, green economy innovation year IEA 2011 Russia: Top 11… Russia Europe’s largest car market by 2015 ICCT 2012 Demand for liquid fuel driven by non-OECD transport growth BP EO 2030, 2012 CO2 from cars to double BAU vs. Stabilization: fuel consumption, CO2 from cars to double 2000-2050 (IEA) World LDV CO2 emissions, business as usual vs GFEI, million tonnes (Mt) CO2, GFEI intervention (IEA 2009) 5000 4500 4000 To cap emissions: 3500 Fuel BAU efficiency – Stabilization cut vehicle fuel use by ½ by 2050 + 3000 2500 flanking measures 2000 2000 2010 2020 2030 2040 2050 • Given the projected expansion of the global fleet, how do we maximise the benefits of fuel efficiency gains in cars on a global scale? The Global Fuel Economy Initiative (GFEI) Mission: Facilitate large reductions of greenhouse gas emissions and oil use through improvements in automotive fuel economy in the face of rapidly growing car use worldwide. Targets (2005 baseline): 30% reduction in LDV fuel consumption per km by 2020 in all new cars in OECD countries 50% by 2030 in all new cars globally 50% by 2050 in all cars globally: from 8 L/100km to 4 L/100km average (90 g CO2/km) – doubling FE 5 Partners: GFEI global timeline 2020 2030 New Cars 30% reduction* in L/100km in OECD: engines, drive trains, weights, aerodynamics; PHEV, EV, FC not required Global 20% reductions with 35% lag time for stock turnover; ecodriving, maintenance * over 2005 50% average improvement globally: full hybridisation of most models; PHEV, EV and FC not required 2050 50% + 50by50 Working priorities of the GFEI National, regional, global • Support national governments and industry partners to develop sound, consensus-driven policies • Collect, analyze and communicate improved data and analysis • Consumers and decision makers information • Technical Harmonization GFEI Menu of Services • Lead in national implementation emerging, developing economies • Secretariat, lead in communications • Data, modelling, baseline, projections • Thematic research, scrappage, flows • Technical, policy design support in major markets, fiscal instruments Working at country level Australia Chile Georgia Ethiopia Kenya Indonesia Montenegro +20 additional from 2013 Fuel Consumption by Year and Fuel Type, Kenya; UNEP 2011 KENYA 2005 2008 Average (l/100km) Diesel 7.69 7.6 8.67 9.09 Petrol 7.52 7.2 http://www.unep.org/transport/gfei/autotool Appropriate technology Internal combustion engine (petrol/diesel) hybrids electric Plug-in (parallel) full mild Degree of electrification 0% stop/start Plug-in (serial, range ext.)
