Abstract:
At the Climate Conference in Kyoto 1997 the countries of the EuropeanUnion (EU) agreed to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by 8% in
the
period 2008-2012, compared to the level of 1990-1995. At the European
Council
in June 1998 separate targets for each country within the EU have been
agreed
upon. Under specific conditions the Netherlands have agreed with a
reduction
of 6%. Based on the Global Competition scenario the total reduction
target
for 2010 is 50 Mton CO2-equivalents. In this report, options
that can
contribute to the realization of such a reduction are described and
categorised as follows: energy conservation in the transport sector;
energy
savings in other sectors; renewable energy; electricity production;
other
greenhouse gasses; CO2-storage; and flexible instruments.
In the final
chapters overviews are presented of the options as a whole as well
as the
costs of a specific quantity of greenhouse gas reduction, dependent
on
several criteria. The total reduction potential of all options (excluding
flexible instruments) amounts to nearly 73 Mton CO2-equivalents
compared to a
target of 50 Mton. Ranking according to the criteria of minimum total
costs
results in annual costs of nearly 1 billion DFl for reaching the target
in
2010. Ranking based on other criteria can result in annual costs of
up to 4
billion DFl. 79 refs.
