  1. SIXTH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME [6.1] [ Sustainable Energy Systems] Introduction to NEEDS Andrea Ricci, ISIS Brussels, 17.2.2009 A.Ricci - 17/02/09

  2. Overall objective To evaluate the full costs and benefits (i.e. direct + external) of energy policies and of future energy systems, both at the level of individual countries and for the enlarged EU as a whole A.Ricci - 17/02/09

  3. RS 1a: DLR LCA of new energy technologies RS 1b: IER New and improved methods to estimateexternal costs RS 1c: OME Externalities from extraction and transport of energy RS 1d: Uni Prague Extension of geographical coverage Workplan outline New developments, updating enhancement of the current state of the art in the field of energy externalities A.Ricci - 17/02/09

  4. RS 2a: IMAA Modelling internalisation strategies, including scenario building RS 2b: PSI Energy Technology Roadmap and Stakeholder Perspectives RS 3A: SWECO Transferability and generalisation RS 3b: ISIS Dissemination/ communication Workplan outline (2) Long Term Strategies for internalisation of external costs Input to policy making, dissemination, communication A.Ricci - 17/02/09

  5. LCA: main targeted innovation Key challenge: to provide sound life cycle inventory data (as a basis for external cost assessment) for technologies in the far future (2030 – 2050) Focus on electricity generation technologies: • advanced fossil fuels • hydrogen technologies • fuel cells • offshore wind • photovoltaic • concentrating solar thermal power plant • biomass • advanced nuclear • wave energy • background processes A.Ricci - 17/02/09

  6. Valuation of external costs:main targeted innovation • Improvement of atmospheric modelling at hemispheric, European, local scale • Soil and water pathways (food, toxic substances) • Externalities from extraction and transport of energy • Exposure-response-relationships for human health • Assessment of biodiversity changes • Assessment of climate change • Valuation of mortality and morbidity • Extension of geographical coverage • Generalisation and transferability NEEDS Stream 1 b A.Ricci - 17/02/09

  7. Modelling: main targeted innovation • To develop an energy-environmental model, technology oriented and based on economic equilibrium, which allows for both a worldwide perspective and a disaggregation for Europe and within the Member States and Accession Countries • To incorporate the results from LCA and externaities valuation (the most important emissions, materials and damage functions), including them in their long term development • To compare scenarios that simulate various policy approaches (setting thresholds for CO2 emission, renewables penetration, etc.) using the key base data received form the other streams to calculate equilibrium quantities and prices. A.Ricci - 17/02/09

  8. Acceptability and stakeholders perspective: main targeted innovation • Broadening the basis for decision support beyond the assessment of external costs: experimenting complementary approaches allowing direct involvement of stakeholders • To explore to what extent the stakeholders accept the assessed external costs. • To address and evaluate sustainability of electricity generation technologies (and/or technology mixes) under economic, environmental and social criteria. • To investigate the sensitivity of results of sustainability assessment to specific patterns in stakeholder preferences. • To examine possible differences in the ranking of options established by employing alternative approaches to the evaluation. A.Ricci - 17/02/09
