  1. EU efforts towards Kyoto Marianne Wenning DG ENV, Climate Change unit28 November 2002

  2. Basis for EU Action • The “Bonn Agreement” (07/2001) & COP-7 decisions in Marrakech (11/2001) provide a good basis for starting implementation • EU Ratification May 2002

  3. EC greenhouse gas emissions compared with targets for 2000 and 2008-2012 (excl. LUCF)

  4. Distance-to-target indicators (in index points = percent) for the Kyoto Protocol and burden sharing targets of EU Member States

  5. Project Progress in 2012 • Current and additional measures projected by MS indicate that EU Kyoto target can be met But • The majority of MS projections also indicate that national Burden Sharing targets will not be met

  6. ECCP : principles and organisation Principles • integration • transparency • stakeholder consultation • group expertise • build consensus Approach • reduction potential • cost-effective (20€/tCO2eq.) • equity • time frame &ancillary effects Working groups - ET/flexible mechanisms - Transport - Agriculture…. ECCP steering committee WG Report /conclusions / proposed measures

  7. Reduction potential of GHG under cost-effectiveness aspects for sectors in EU until 2010 (including full implementation of the ACEA Agreement)

  8. ECCP Results 1st phase • Some 40 cost-effective policies and measures with an emission reduction potential of some 664 - 765 Mt CO2 eq (± twice EU target) • Overall costs for EU target in 2010: 3.7 € bn / 0.06 % of GDP hypothesis : maximum cost - effectiveness (EU/MS)

  9. Emissions Trading IPPC JI/CDM link to ET revision monitoring mechanism minimum EE for end use products energy demand management CHP EE public procurement EE: campaign for take-off shifting the balance between modes of transport infrastructure use and charging promotion bio-fuels fluorinated gases Communication 1st phase ECCP Package of priority measures to be implemented in 2002/2003

  10. Pre-Kyoto phase (2005-07) and Kyoto phase (2008-12) Harmonised coverage of 5 major sectors across the internal market Initial focus on CO2 Harmonised allocation method (free of charge in pre-Kyoto phase) Allocated quantities determined by MS ... … and laid down in national allocation plans Stringent financial penalties of at least € 50 / € 100 per tonne + automatic offset Linking to other ET schemes and Kyoto mechanisms foreseen Key elements of the ET proposal

  11. Crunch issues in the negotiations Agreement in principle, debate on details • Temporal exclusion (up to 2007) • Unilateral extension • Pooling concept • Allocation method for 2008-12

  12. ECCP 2nd phase • Support and follow-up implementation of the measures identified in the first phase • new and continuation of working groups • JI/CDM - link with ET • Agriculture • Forest related sinks • sinks in agricultural soils • fluorinated gases

  13. ECCP second phase • 4 working groups will deliver by Dec. 2002 /Jan. 2003 • first half 2003 : ECCP progress report • activities of working groups • stock taking on implementation of the 1st phase • forward looking (“plan of action”) : • new policy proposals • new initiatives? • ECCP seminar in Green Week (June 2003)

  14. Coalition of the like Minded CountriesThe way forward on RE • Confirming and highlighting role of RES in SD • Setting ambitious RES targets and timetables • Milestones • 2003 Green Week • 2004 German World Conference on RE • Regional Workshops (?)
