16. Some of these technologies may also avail of venture capital to allow them to scale rapidly. Government has shown its support for this necessary innovation underpinning its clean growth objectives with a £20 million cornerstone investment in the venture capital Clean Growth Fund ¹4. This Fund aims to accelerate the deployment of innovative clean technologies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions, alongside catalysing the UK clean growth venture capital market and leveraging private sector funding into early-stage clean tech start-ups. For example, the fund led a £4.7 million investment round into Piclo (the independent energy trading marketplace) with co-investment from Mott MacDonald Ventures. 17. The BBB is a government-owned economic development bank with a mission to drive sustainable growth and prosperity across the UK, and to enable the transition to a net zero economy, by improving access to finance for smaller businesses. UK Government has worked with the BBB on their new mission and objective to support the UK's transition to a net zero economy and incorporate environmental, social and governance issues across of its activities. The new net zero objective will support firms looking to move towards net zero, helping the UK reduce its energy consumption and mitigate the impacts of climate change. 18. Going beyond SME finance to larger scale infrastructure finance, there are significant pools of private finance ready to deploy into UK projects but there can be a mismatch between market appetite and the risk profile of projects. Infrastructure investment is vulnerable to market failure, as it is often complex, large, novel and long-term. Launched in June 2021, the new UK Infrastructure Bank can play a pivotal role in this space, crowding in private sector investment in important areas and helping to kick start new sectors. Across the Bank's full mandate (also covering regional growth), it has £12 billion of equity and debt capital and will be able to deploy £10 billion of government guarantees. We expect the Bank to use this to crowd in private investment as a cornerstone investor or guarantor to enable more than £40 billion of investment in the areas most prone to market failure, and to help deliver its dual policy focus of tackling climate change and supporting regional and local economic growth. Furthermore, the Bank will play a pivotal role in catalysing the role of local government in the transition, by financing strategic infrastructure projects led by local authorities,

Moving forward Eleventh Malaysia Plan, 2016-2020 The Eleventh Malaysia Plan will strengthen the foundation of economic expansion and provide an enabling environment to support growth. Initiatives will be undertaken to provide a seamless transportation system and enhance mobility of people, targeting a 40% public transport modal share in the GKL/KV region and 20% in other state capitals. Rural, rural-urban and inter-city connectivity will also be strengthened through enhanced bus, rail and air services. Movement of goods will also become increasingly important as trade plays a significant role in Malaysia's economic growth. The logistics industry will therefore be strengthened. By 2020, Malaysia is targeting an 8.5% annual growth rate of the transport and storage subsector, along with a place in the top 10 of the World Bank Logistics Performance Index. In the Eleventh Plan, focus will not only be on expanding the physical capacity and reach of infrastructure networks, but improving their performance, productivity, and affordability. The aim is to not only bring such amenities to all households, urban or rural, but make these services befitting of an advanced economy and inclusive nation by 2020.

To implement its offshore programme, the Government will take the following steps: Reach agreements with relevant governments on the delineation of maritime bound- aries which could impact on shared reservoirs, joint operating agreements or unitisation of resources. Conduct all seismic and other activities preparatory to the development of contracts for exploratory or production programmes. E Position itself to award contracts for exploration. This shall be achieved by hiring a consultant and preparing the relevant "data package for distribution amongst bidders whose interest and involvement will be invited through a competitive bidding process. Establish a legislative framework for the offshore hydrocarbon programme. Ensure that critical Strategic Environmental Assessments (SEAS) and recommended preventive and mitigation measures are conducted. Establish an equivalent to the Norwegian "Oil for Development" model to ensure that the revenues gained from any sales of finite resources are channelled towards the sustainable development of the island, including the use of renewable energy sources to meet long term domestic demand. There is no intention to build a refinery at this time, however, this will be revisited if or when hydrocarbon reserves are found and quantified. Hydrocarbon resources will be used to offset national consumption in conjunction with renewable energy resources.

The UAE is in the process of developing a comprehensive MRV-Transparency System that covers all relevant GHG and Air Quality (AQ) pollutants in-line with the mitigation targets; this ensures that the quantifiable emissions inventory is always kept up to date. The MRV-Transparency System will cover the following elements in line with the UAE National Climate Change Plan 20172050:14 The UAE pledged to leave no one behind' on its path towards a sustainable achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda, in which access to clean energy and the protection of the environment are seen as key priorities. In line with this commitment, the UAE established a national policy for empowering people of determination in all aspects of society, including climate action. As such, also the NDCA included representatives of people of determination to ensure their involvement in the discussions on UAE's roadmap to net zero. The successful implementation of the UAE's NDC requires an effective measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) plan to establish transparency and accountability in identifying progress and define areas of improvement in its mitigation and adaptation measures. An MRV plan provides the data required to assess the effectiveness of climate-related policies and can be used to inform and develop new measures.

The "scenario with additional measures" starts from the assumptions that the Republic of Serbia will reach its national goal of a 27% share of renewable energy sources in gross final consumption and a 10% share of biofuels in transport in 2020 and implement energy efficiency measures to achieve a 9% reduction in final energy consumption compared to the previous scenario. This scenario includes the implementation of measures with the aim to reduce final energy consumption in the building sector, the commercial and public service sector, and the industrial and transport sector. Consequently, the relative reduction in energy consumption (reduction per unit of GDP) in the manufacturing and service sectors will be accomplished. As a result, energy efficiency will become a "new energy source"

Developed policies and strategic measures are categorized along five energy pillars and provide answers how to tackle current specific challenges and leverage on new opportunities. In addition, they are also in line with the priorities stipulated from the Energy Law in order to emphasize their relevance and contribution: 1. Energy efficiency: the Strategy maximizes energy savings up to 51.8% of primary and 27.5% of final energy. Historically, a decreasing trend can be noticed in the primary energy consumption with final energy consumption remaining stable. With North Macedonia being a developing country, it is projected that the GDP growth will amount on average 3.3% per annum, positioning North Macedonia in 2040 to neighbouring EU countries' GDP per capita levels of today. With GDP growth being one of the main drivers for future energy demand, maximization of energy efficiency policies is much needed, as they directly impact emission reductions, decrease import dependence, and stimulate domestic economy with local job opportunities. In all three scenarios, North Macedonia will use less resources to cover the same needs, with the decoupling of consumption starting from 2020 but with different rates per scenario. As a first step, it is important to determine the ambition level by setting the national EE targets for 2020 and 2030, where the Strategy results could serve as a good basis. The biggest energy savings can be achieved in primary energy consumption, mostly due to decrease of coal consumption in the Moderate transition and Green scenario. Also, the overall improvement of EE at supply side and continuous reduction of losses in distribution network will additionally alleviate primary energy consumption. As for the final energy consumption, it will increase in the future but with considerably lower rates in the Moderate transition and Green scenario, due to more progressive EE measures. Therefore, it is important to continue the usage of existing EE measures and introduce new ones for household and commercial sector. The Strategy puts additional focus on EE in transport and industry sectors as the biggest contributors in the final energy consumption, especially after 2025. For DH systems, the goal should be to improve the efficiency, especially via systematical reconstructions of distribution network. All planned EE measures need to be monitored so that those which prove to be more impactful on

In this national context, this CDN Uruguay proposes for the energy sector to continue deepening demand-oriented actions such as energy efficiency measures that are already being implemented in the different consumption sectors and to continue incorporating electric vehicles in the bus, taxi and remises, cargo and individuals, within the general framework of sustainable mobility. For this, the necessary charger infrastructure will also be deepened, which already has relatively wide coverage throughout the national territory, and which requires speeding up the incorporation of fast and ultra-fast chargers. Process improvement actions will also be implemented at the country's refinery, with the aim of increasing efficiency and reducing emissions per unit of product. In the cement industry, the consumption of Net Zero by 2050 Report. A roadmap for the global energy sector In addition to these actions, the country is working on various enabling frameworks and policies that will allow mitigation actions to be leveraged. Among them, the approval and implementation of the Sustainable Urban Mobility Policy that includes mobility planning in the territory, modal change, emission reduction, accessibility and affordability of public transport, among others. Said Policy provides for a space for institutional coordination of all relevant national and subnational actors through the Inter-Institutional Commission for Sustainable Mobility that will be created for such purposes for its implementation. This policy will be supported in its implementation on some guides already prepared (Guide for the Planning of Sustainable Urban Mobility, Guide on Electric Urban Mobility) and pilots developed and in progress. Likewise, the approval and implementation of the National Circular Economy Strategy will provide the enabling framework and will generate new opportunities for climate change mitigation in the future.

In the conversion (power generation, collective energy) sector, a reduction of about 24 million tons was confirmed by reflecting the policy to reduce fine dust and convert to eco-friendly energy, and for about 34 million tons, the 3rd basic energy plan was established, the energy tax system was reformed, and environmental dispatch was strengthened. It was decided to materialize before submitting the revised Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to the United Nations in 2020. In the industrial sector, about 99 million tons will be reduced by improving industrial processes, saving energy, and disseminating excellent reduction technologies. In the building sector, about 65 million tons will be reduced by strengthening energy standards for new buildings and activating green remodeling of existing buildings.

Nonetheless, the Singapore Government remains committed to reduce emissions growth further. Plans to improve energy efficiency in all sectors of the economy were included in its 2009 Sustainable Singapore Blueprint. Prior to the 2009 Copenhagen Climate Change Conference, Singapore pledged to reduce our emissions by 16% from the 2020 business-as-usual (BAU) level, contingent on a legally binding global agreement in which all countries implement their commitments in good faith. Although a legally binding agreement has yet to be reached, Singapore has nonetheless started to implement mitigation and energy efficiency measures which should reduce our emissions by 7% to 11% from the 2020 BAU level. This pledge is not contingent on international financing and Singapore will utilise our domestic resources. The first phase of measures to encourage even greater public transport usage and improve energy efficiency in industry, buildings and households is being rolled out.

2. Strengthen the participation of civil society and co-responsibility in the implementation of pro-poor policy. Traditionally, the Central Government has been assigned all the responsibility for economic and social development policies. However, the failures of the statist models of the past have led to development proposals that eliminate previous barriers to the performance of private initiative, reduce the role of the State in the direct management of the economy and strengthen its normative and regulatory role. The Country Vision 2010-2038 and the Nation Plan 2010-2022, without eliminating the responsibilities of the Central Government, recognize the importance of executing programs and projects that can be carried out by the municipalities, communities, NGOs and private companies.

The energy sector covers all activities that involve fuel combustion from stationary sources and fugitive emission from fuels. The emission from energy sector in 2014 amounted to 10,817 kt CO and it is the main source of anthropogenic emission of greenhouse gases, it accounts approximately 46.9% of the total greenhouse gases emission in 2014. In scenario without measures', i.e. without implementation of energy efficiency measures and renewable energy policy and with the increase in a number of fossil fuel power plants to reduce the import of electricity by 2030, projections show steady growth until 2035. In the 'with existing measures' scenario, projections show stagnation of emissions until 2020 as the growth of demand is mainly satisfied by the development of the renewable energy sources and energy efficiency. In the period from 2020 to 2035, this scenario shows a slight decrease due to expected development of the renewable energy sources even without the additional measures, only due to market competitiveness and impact of the EU ETS. Most measures to reduce emissions in the energy sector are defined by 2020, so it has not yet been determined which will be implemented after 2020. In scenario 'with additional measures', all measures planned in the energy sector were taken into account and projections show a steady trend of emission reduction.

Each area of the economy must make substantial changes in the next decade to get on the path to Net Zero emissions for the whole of the UK. The transition must not be delayed. • All sectors have multiple options to achieve a level of emissions reduction that is consistent with Net Zero by 2050. • Most sectors can achieve near-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 in different ways. For many sectors, the shape of the overall emissions trajectory that is required is similar even where very different options are deployed (for example the relative uptake of electrification compared to the use of low-carbon hydrogen in manufacturing).

The share of CH. flared reaches a value of 10 per cent by 2030 (current value eight percent). Wastewater handling WEM Biogas production Emissions from wastewater handling are assumed to scale with the evolution of population. It is assumed that increased demand for biogas leads to the construction of 336 additional biogas facilities by 2030 (Prog nas, 2012). Accordingly, the total number of biogas facilities reaches 236 by 2020 and 461 by 2030, with a related increase of fugitive emissions over the coming years. WOM It is assumed that the ban on landling of combustible waste was not implemented. Consequently, the amount of waste disposed of at waste disposal sites under the WOM scenario follows the same evolution as under the WEM and WAM scenarios until 1999, but then only de creases to 10 per cent of this value by 2020, remaining constant thereafter. It is further assumed that the share of CH. recovered for power production (on total CHi produced) is the same under the WOM scenario as under the WEM and WAM scenarios (the share decreases disproportionately as the cost-income ratio is changing for the worse with decreasing CH production of the waste disposal site). Finally, it is assumed that the share of CH flared remains constant at 3.5 per cent from 1990 to 2030. Same as for the WEM scenario.

I. - The objective for passenger transport is to reduce the use of hydrocarbons, to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, atmospheric pollution and other nuisances and to increase energy efficiency, by organizing a system of integrated and multimodal transport favoring rail, sea and river transport in their area of relevance, while limiting the consumption of agricultural and natural areas. Developing the use of public passenger transport is a priority. To this end, for inter-urban and peri-urban travel, priority will be given, in terms of infrastructure, to rail investments over the development of road or airport projects. In order to make rail transport more attractive for travellers, the State will encourage the development of the auto-train service. The State will take measures to adapt Law No. 82-1153 of 30 December 1982 on the orientation of inland transport to take account of the particular situation of each of the overseas regions. In French Guiana, the possibility of implementing a railway line serving coastal municipalities will be studied with a view to both opening up and sustainable development. II. - The State will ensure that travelers have access to more efficient rail offers for their journeys in France and Europe and for the service of air connection platforms, constituting alternatives to air transport. To this end, the connection of major airport platforms with the high-speed rail network will be improved. The creation of new airports will be limited to cases of displacement of traffic for environmental reasons. Access to airports by public transport will be encouraged. In order to fight against noise pollution around airports, the State will continue to support the control of urbanization around these facilities and will ensure the necessary financing of aid for the soundproofing of buildings for local residents, which is based on the principle of the polluter pays. It will ensure the transparency of information relating to the nuisances caused by air transport. Reinforced penalty mechanisms will be instituted in order to ensure compliance with environmental regulations by airlines. In terms of air navigation, the objective is, on the one hand, to reduce noise in the vicinity of airports by optimizing aircraft approach and take-off procedures and, on the other hand, to reduce the consumption of fuel and carbon dioxide emissions with the aim of reducing the environmental impact by reducing the distances traveled by aircraft and reducing waiting and taxiing times.

To enhance the relevance of higher education to the needs of the country, 70 percent of undergraduate students were enrolled in Science and Technology program and 40 percent of them were enrolled in engineering and technology program. This is well in line with the policy objective of the government. However, to improve quality of education farther, the on-going higher education quality improvement program needs to be fully implemented. In addition, to link the higher education and training systems with development activities to keep up with technology development, the momentum to strengthen existing linkage of university with industries need to be continued. Remarkable results have been achieved in health sector during the GTP I period. Ethiopia has become exemplary in meeting the MDGs ahead of time in the health sector. Health posts and health centres were constructed in accordance to the national standard in all areas in order to make essential health services accessible to all citizens. Based on this, 38,000 health extension workers have been deployed all over the country. Mid-level and highly qualified health professionals have been trained and deployed across the country. Accordingly, primary health care service coverage has increased to 98 percent by 2014/15. To translate these investments in health infrastructure and health personnel into better health outcomes, extensive community mobilization and engagement was unleashed to ensure community ownership of the health system. Similarly, Contraceptive Prevalence Rate (CPR) has increased from 15 percent in 2009/10 to 42 percent by 2014/15 and deliveries attended by skilled health personnel has increased from 16.8 percent in 2009/10 to 60.7 percent by 2014/15. Similarly postnatal care coverage has increased from 36.3 percent in 2009/10 to 90 percent by 2014/15. Regarding improvement of maternal and child health, under five mortality rate has decreased from 204/1000 in 1989/90 to 64/1000 by 2014/15, while matemal mortality ratio has decreased from 1400/100000 in 1989/90 to 420/100000 by 2014/15.

Review of the Fiji National Energy Policy: Draft Energy Policy, July 2013 Economic Consulting Associates and SMEC (New Zealand) Improving Fiji's energy efficiency in the transport sector and also in the power sector and amongst households/businesses - is likely a cost-effective way to reduce the cost and increase the availability of energy in Fiji, despite the fact that Fiji is a relatively low energy-intensive country. Fiji has made some progress in recent years, but there is still much to be done, in particular with regard to emerging mining projects which will increase the energy intensity of Fiji's economy.

In the international field, Paraguay's main areas of concern are agriculture and the special and differential treatment of landlocked developing countries and those with small and vulnerable economies,80 taking into account that the 31 Landlocked Developing Countries! (PDSL) have common geographic problems due to their distance from coastal ports, insufficient internal infrastructure, weak institutions, small domestic markets and vulnerability to external shocks; dependence on political conditions, tariff and non-tariff measures imposed by neighboring or transit countries, which together lead to high costs in international trade, 81 livestock; the export of hydroelectric power to neighboring countries; commercial intermediation or triangulation. The sustained increase in Paraguay's exports since 2003, as well as in GDP, although it has largely underpinned the model mentioned, has also brought with it important innovations on which to think about a new model of development and more competitive international insertion for the country. Paraguay. In terms of agro-industrial products, the country is the world's leading exporter of organic sugar, fourth world exporter of soybeans, second world producer of stevia, fifth world exporter of soybean oil, fifth world producer of chia, sixth world exporter of meat and one of the main energy exporters. There are 25 main export products, of which eight are agricultural commodities and 17 items from the manufacturing sector. Other items such as wheat, corn, sesame and rice have joined the traditional exports of soybeans and frozen meat. All these agricultural commodities have represented an average of 58% of Paraguayan exports in the last decade. Table 22. Exports by products over total exports, decade 2003-2013 One of the fundamental characteristics of the current evolution of societies is the care to preserve the features of their cultural identity and to prevent the erosion of some of their values, in the face of the threats of standardization of tastes and ways of life to the that are exposed in an increasingly globalized world. This concern is added to the difficulty that certain peoples encounter -for historical, political or economic reasons- in having their personality recognized.

In order to expand the introduction of renewable energy in the long term, its cost needs to be reduced to the level of the existing energy sources. At the same time, efforts will be made to avail locations previously unsuitable for a renewable energy site, such as: improvement in power generation efficiency and durability; making the weight lighter, and; forming it into bendable forms. In addition, technologies to contribute to significant increase in the volume of renewable energy that can be introduced at a cost equivalent to the existing energy sources will be sought. In the case of solar power, this will include technologies that allow the installation of solar panels on building walls, factory roofs, on top of water, and on vehicles and drones.

tion were then calculated using relevant emission factors for each crop. ■ Synthetic fertiliser per hectare and hectares cultivated drive the emissions from synthetic fertilisers used. Synthetic fertiliser per hectare will grow from 65 kg/ha in 2010 to 247 kg/ha in 2030. Synthetic fertiliser use in 2010- 2015 was projected based on GTP targets, and usage growth until 2030 was estimated based on the World Bank 2015 fertiliser application estimate for India (247 kg/ha). ■ Hectares cultivated will grow at 4% over the years based on projections from the GTP, which already includes programmes such as improved seeds and fertiliser use. This will raise the area cultivated from 13 million hectares in 2010 to 27 million hectares in 2030. ■ Livestock population mainly drives the emissions from manure used on land. As projected in the Livestock chapter, the population of livestock will grow from 47 million tropical livestock units in 2010 to 92 million tropical livestock units in 2030. These figures are based on projections by the CSA. GHG emissions baseline and BAU projection for 2030 In the BAU scenario, emissions from soil will increase from 12 Mt CO₂e in 2010 to 61 Mt CO₂e in 2030 (see Figure 49), mainly driven by an increase in the use of synthetic fertiliser. The use of synthetic fertiliser is considered not to stifle the growth of crop reintroduction and manure application as the use of fertiliser on land is expected not to reach the saturation level in the years up to 2030, meaning that the use of crop residue, synthetic fertiliser and manure will all grow along with their emission drivers.

<< Art. L.271-3. - In the event that load shedding is valued on the energy markets or on the balancing mechanism, a payment scheme to the electricity suppliers of the curtailed sites is defined on the basis of a reference price and load shedding volumes counted as withdrawals within the scope of the balance responsible parties of the suppliers of the curtailed sites. The reference price reflects the "energy" part of the supply price of the consumption sites whose consumption is totally or partially erased. Payment is made by the end consumer on behalf of the load shedding operator or, failing that, by the load shedding operator itself. By way of derogation, the administrative authority may, for the load shedding categories mentioned in Article L. 271-1 which lead to significant energy savings, impose that the payment of this payment be fully distributed between the operator of load shedding and the operator of the public electricity transmission network. In this case, the share paid by the operator of the public transmission network is set by regulation. It is determined according to the characteristics of the load shedding category, so as to guarantee a benefit for all electricity consumers on the interconnected national territory. It cannot exceed the load shedding mentioned in the same article L. 271-1 which leads to energy savings. The costs borne by the operator of the public transmission network are covered according to the terms provided for in Article L. 321-12. At the end of a period of three years from the promulgation of law n 2015-992 of August 17, 2015 relating to the energy transition for green growth, the Energy Regulation Commission submits a report to the Minister in charge of energy on the implementation of the payment scheme, on the impact of demand response on market prices, on the capacity mechanism and on network costs as well as on the distribution between operators load shedding, electricity suppliers and consumers of the financial flows generated by load shedding. If necessary, it proposes to the Minister responsible for energy a modification of the rules relating to the payment mentioned in this article. This report is made public. The terms of application of this article are set by a Conseil d'Etat decree, following the opinion of the Energy Regulation Commission.

was asked thin the 2013 Doing Business report by the World Bank Fij is well below the regional average in some categories, including starting a busine.Si conclusions are drawn in the Asian Fij Development Bank's 2011 Private Sector Assessment which states. "The general business climate in Fij is not conducive to attract sufficient private capital... Government has also been promoting the development of other indigenous local energy resources in particular biofuels, in order to reduce the dependence on imported fossil fuels for electricity generation. The possibility of ethanol production in Fiji has been considered - however financial viability of this option is highly sensitive due to inconsistent supply of feedstock and the performance of the sugar industry over the last 10 years has deterred investors. The production of molasses by the Fiji Sugar Corporation has decreased from around 115,000 tonnes in 2007 to around 67,000 tonnes in 2012 while sugar production has declined from 237,000 tonnes in 2007 to around 159,223 tonnes in 2012. A recent feasibility study on ethanol production from molasses which was undertaken by the Fiji Sugar Corporation, recommended a 60 kilolitres per day ethanol plant be constructed to produce 16.579 million litres of anhydrous ethanol, which significantly exceeds the 10 to 12 million litres required annually for the E10 blending in Fiji." A similar study funded by the World Bank in 2008, states that the high cost of cultivating cassava means it is a relatively expensive feedstock for ethanol production and yields negative margins unless oil prices are very high. Current efforts on improving demand side energy efficiency have so far focused on appliance labelling for refrigeration technology in the domestic sector, the development of training material for a programme on energy efficiency in schools, and public awareness campaigns. There is clearly potential to expand these initiatives and make more of an impact on energy efficiency, including through increasing labelling awareness campaigns and targeting improvements in the public sector.

Finland welcomes that the Initial IMO Strategy on Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Ships was adopted in 2018. It envisages a reduction in total greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping and identifies three levels of ambition. First, the carbon intensity of ships should decline through the implementation of further phases of the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) for new ships. Second, the carbon intensity of international shipping should decline with reductions in CO emissions per transport work, as an average across international shipping, by at least 40 per cent by 2030, pursuing efforts towards 70 per cent by 2050 compared to 2008. Third, greenhouse gas emissions from international shipping should peak as soon as possible, and the total annual emissions should be reduced by at least 50 per cent by 2050 compared to 2008. According to the Roadmap, by 2023, IMO Member States should agree a final strategy on short-, medium-, and long-term measures, taking the results from the IMO Data Collection System into account. In 2021, the IMO agreed to initiate the revision of the Initial 2018 IMO Strategy on Reduction of GHG Emissions from Ships, recognising the need to strengthen the ambition during the revision process. A final draft Revised IMO GHG Strategy will be considered by 2023 with a view to adoption.

In relation to climate change, the energy sector is the main emitter of greenhouse gases (GHG) according to the national GHG inventory, prepared in 2018 (MiAmbiente, 2018) (See chapter 2 of the IBA), and it is expected that it is a sector with greater growth by increasing the demand for electricity and the consumption of fuels to the extent that the population and GDP increase, especially in urban areas. Consequently, the Energy Sector stands out in national mitigation initiatives. The Planned and Determined Contribution of Honduras establishes that "the country aspires to significantly reduce the sector with the most emissions, that is, the production of electrical energy." Similarly, the National Climate Change Strategy (ENCC) presents a strategic guideline for the reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and other GHGs associated with the burning of fossil fuels through the promotion and adoption of renewable energy sources. as well as energy conservation and energy efficiency. In the line of energy production from renewable sources, Goal 3.3 of the Country Vision (2010-2038) indicates that by 2038, 80% of electricity generation should be from renewable energy. However, it should be noted that the sector is also vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change related to reduced rainfall. As shown in table 1-2, the impacts of the drought in the country also cause energy rationing due to the reduction of hydroelectric energy production caused by the loss of flows.

lower by 2020 than the 1990 level. The transport sector also looks likely to fall short of this expected target. One reason for this is that the compensation obligation on fuel importers has only resulted in negligible emissions reductions in the transport sector - most compensation projects are being carried out in other sectors. With the revision of the CO₂ Act, emissions can be reduced by 25 per cent by 2030 compared with 1990. Figure 19 shows technologically feasible development of emissions under the ZERO basis target scenario compared with the 'Business as usual scenario for the sub-sectors of road transport. From a technological perspective, the transport sector can operate on a greenhouse-gas-neutral basis by 2050 according to EP2050+. Compared with the 'Business as usual' scenario, this nevertheless requires much greater reductions.

Bearing these in mind, the Government will promote the development and investment of energy infrastructure abroad in order to contribute to the global reduction of CO emissions consistent with the long-term goals stipulated in the Paris Agreement. Especially in the light of growing demands on renewable energy worldwide, the Government will facilitate the use of renewable energy according to the circumstances of the partner country. On geothermal power generation, Japanese technologies have much competitiveness, and the Government will particularly take a wide range of measures to facilitate international application, including surveys on potentials, development, operation and preparation such as capacity building in Africa, Asia and other regions. The Government will also seek international application of offshore wind power generation, waste power generation, cogeneration systems and smart cities. The Government will also facilitate international application of such technologies as grid and energy storage to support the expansion of renewable energy, considering the needs in the partner country. During the transition to a decarbonized society, the Government will support the shift to cleaner use of gas by supporting the institutions and infrastructure to introduce LNG worldwide,

To achieve the goals of sustainably managing carbon sinks and reducing GHG emissions by at least 20%, overall priorities include improving institutional arrangements for energy sector management, promoting and/or mandating energy efficiency and energy conservation, expanding renewable energy production and use, and diversification and improved security of the existing electricity supply. Existing priorities for adaptation and disaster risk management will enable sustainable management of carbon sinks. Table 5 outlines priority interventions for achieving these goals. Improving institutional arrangements includes development and enforcement of an Energy Act outlined in the National Energy Policy 2010, with associated Energy Administration and a National Energy Committee (NEC). Achieving a 30% reduction in primary energy consumption by 2020 is feasible. This Policy recognizes that improving the efficiency of energy use will reduce energy consumption more than any other action and prioritizes actions that support adoption of high efficiency appliances and vehicles, energy efficient building standards, efficient modes of transport (including public), and smart planning. Government is also committed to energy efficient purchasing and construction. Achieving a target of 20% renewable energy sourcing will require expansion into other forms of renewable energy such as wind, waste (landfill gas), hydropower, and/or marine energy (wave energy and currents). This Policy recognizes the role that development partners play in closing the gap between supply costs for renewable energy and conventional energy. Additional priorities include comprehensive assessments and analysis of options (including financing), data collection, improved capacity, and development of renewable energy equipment standards. Renewable energy technologies shall be integrated in all outer island energy development by 2020.

Standardizing the interpretation of regulations and modifying the RES support system towards greater grid development would also contribute to faster commissioning of new RES. The development of renewable energy in Poland requires measures to promote renewable energy in Poland (action 31), based on the Polish Energy Policy, the National Renewable Energy Action Plan (NREAP), as well as periodic reports on progress in promoting and using energy from renewable sources in Poland (prepared pursuant to Article 22 of Directive 2009/28 / EC). The aim of the program will be to work out specific actions ensuring the implementation of the indicative development path of individual RES technologies specified in the NREAP, and as a result achieving at least 15% share of energy from renewable sources in gross final energy consumption by 2020. The program should contain solutions covering economic, social and environmental issues, so as to ensure the sustainable development of this sector of the economy. Considering the national potential of renewable energy sources, biomass may play a special role. For energy purposes, biomass from by-products, residues and waste from agriculture and agri-food processing should be used in the first place. These raw materials should be used locally in distributed generation units.

Results obtained Potential extension of the mitigation action 2010/2018 3,194,565 ha/ 3,269,400 ha The measure was executed in the period 2010-2018. During this period, the average increase in the area covered by established artificial forests (over 3 years old), using only national financial sources, was 8,315 ha/y (INAF, 2019) and the 2016 Net Emissions Balance of the forestry sector reported the removal of 5.96 tC/ha/y for those forests. In total, in the period 2010-2018, 74,835 ha were reforested. This implied a removal from the atmosphere of 1,618.9 ktCO. The forest area of Cuba (area likely to be covered by forests) was 3,573,400 ha at the end of 2018, of which 3,269,400 ha were already covered by forests and 304,000 ha remained to be covered (DFFFS, 2019). If the reforestation rate of the 2010-2018 period (8,315 ha/a) is maintained, the reforestation of the total area susceptible to being covered by forests would conclude in the year 2055. If the average reforestation rate of the 2010 period is doubled -2018 it could be possible to complete the forest cover of the national forest area in 19 years (2037). This option would increase the area covered by artificial forests established between 2019 and 2030 by 165,000 ha, removing 169.9 million tCO, atmospheric in that period. This action is being technically evaluated as one of the options that can increase the ambition of the country's First CND by 2030. To achieve this goal, financial support is required over and above the effort that the country will continue to make in this direction.

Mitigation Scenario: The NDCs of Sri Lanka submitted to the UNFCCC in 2016 includes the activities that could be undertaken to reduce GHG emissions in the transport sector. They are (a) avoidance/reduction of journeys; (b) modal shift; (c) improvement of energy efficiency of modes of transport and vehicle technologies; and (d) fuel improvement. Among these, a greater emphasis was placed on the modal shift to increase the share of public transport which is supported by policies and action plans. The public transportation contributions to the entire transport sector is about 55% in 2020. It is expected to decrease to 47% by 2030 in the base case (Megapolis Transport Masterplan, 2016). However, in the mitigation scenario which is designed taking into consideration, the road and rail modes of transport are drawn on the premise that public transport share would increase to 62% by 2030 through the interventions mentioned above. An emphasis is also placed on efficiency improvements in new vehicles using improved fuel which emit fewer GHGs. The GHG emissions of approximately 81g CO.,/passenger km is expected to be reduced to 73g CO/passenger km. The more specific and detailed actions to be taken are as follows;

The preliminary title contains the general provisions of the law, relating to the object and its guiding principles. Title I includes the minimum national objectives for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energies and energy efficiency of the Spanish economy for the years 2030 and 2050: the emissions of the Spanish economy as a whole in the year 2030 must be reduced by, at least 23% compared to 1990 and climate neutrality must be achieved no later than 2050. In addition, in 2030 a penetration of energies from renewable sources in final energy consumption must be at least, 42%, an electricity system with at least 74% generation from renewable sources and improve energy efficiency by reducing primary energy consumption by at least 39.5% with respect to the baseline according to community regulations. These objectives, in addition, will be reviewable, without implying a decrease in the level of environmental ambition and must reflect the greatest possible ambition. The goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 that is proposed for the Spanish economy as a whole is consistent with the increased ambition set by the European Council on December 10 and 11, 2020, which agreed on a goal to 2030 reduction of emissions in the European Union of at least 55% compared to 1990 levels, as an emission reduction path to achieve climate neutrality in the Union in 2050, in line with the Paris objectives. In this context, Spain, aware of the need to increase European ambition, prior to this agreement reinforced its commitments in greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy and energy efficiency in the PNIEC 2021-2030 with which it materializes achieving the objectives of this law. The PNIEC responds to the path that will ensure the best way from the environmental and socioeconomic point of view to achieve the full decarbonization of Spain in 2050. The objective established for 2030 implies a 39% decrease in diffuse emissions compared to 1990, according to the evaluation of the European Commission on the PNIEC of Spain, surpassing by 13 points the goal set for these same sectors in the European Regulation on the distribution of efforts in force at that time. The commitment to move forward and advance climate ambition is included in the Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan, which places the

Indicator title Area of marginal land restored Estimated impact of mitigation Unit Halan Gg CO, e This mitigation measure will be implemented through plantation activities. These will be done on degraded sites for needs of wood-energy, fruit production, fodder. Rapidly growing wood-energy species (Senna siamea, Acacia auriculiformis, Anogeissus leiocarpus, Eucalyptus globulus, etc.), fruit trees (mango trees, Israeli mango trees, citrus fruits, cashews, etc.), Works or services (Khaya senegalensis, Gmelina arborea, etc.) will be planted in these areas according to the needs expressed by the grassroots communities. Estimated result and estimate of avoided emissions The implementation of this mitigation measure will make it possible to sequester 3740.34tC, i.e. an absorption of 13.715 Gg CO-e Methodology and Assumptions In the FAT sub-sector: the COMAP tool (Comprehensive Mitigation Assessment Process for foresty) was used for the development of mitigation scenarios in accordance with UNFCCC recommendations. For the estimation of carbon sequestration for this mitigation measure, the REFROTN sub-model (Reforestation and enrichment of degraded landscapes) was used. Assumptions: - - - The reforestation of degraded ecosystems in Togo will make it possible to achieve a forest cover of 30% of the national surface area by 2035; The rate of forest cover will increase from 24.24 to 25% by 2025 according to the government roadmap The growth rate of the urban and rural population is 2.84%/year; The annual deforestation rate of wooded vegetation formations is 0.4% (NRF) without any intervention; Togo's desire to reduce the area of plant formations annually burned by 5% will be disrupted by uncontrolled vegetation fires.

In Slovenia, 9,630 ha of forests are declared forest reserves in which forests are subject to natural development. Forest reserves contribute to the increase in biodiversity in forests and enable studies of natural development of forests. Wood as an important renewable natural resource has long contributed to the development of industry and the entire economy in Slovenia, especially in rural areas. Integration of forestry and wood industry with the purpose of providing wood processing and added value in the domestic environment is therefore important for the further development of the economy. Since wood is the most energy conserving material, forest and permanently integrated wood are important factors for carbon sequestration (carbon dioxide sink), which also presents a contribution to wise use of energy and clean environment. Sustainable wild game management also contributes to the economy, especially in rural areas, because hunting in the connection with tourism is an important source of income in rural areas. Hunting as a form of recreation attracts guests who at the same time consume other tourist offers, while game meat brings something new to the menu as well as to the tourist offer. Wild game also attracts other tourists who want to watch or take photographs.

1.7 The Chief Executive announced in the 2020 Policy Address that Hong Kong would strive to achieve carbon neutrality before 2050. In 2019, electricity generation was the largest source of carbon emissions, accounting for about two-thirds (66%) of the total emissions in Hong Kong, followed by transport (about 18%), waste (about 7%, mainly from landfills), other end use of fuel (about 5%), and industrial processes and product use (about 4%). It is an extremely challenging target to achieve carbon neutrality before 2050, i.e. in less than 30 years. Hong Kong must formulate a proactive, forward-looking and targeted decarbonisa- tion strategy, and strive to encourage the parti- cipation of the whole community. The community in general expects Hong Kong to go further in deep decarbonisation... The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region will strive to achieve carbon neutrality before 2050. To this end, the Government will set out more proactive strategies and measures to reduce carbon emissions. The Chief Executive, Mrs Carrie Lam,

Thailand requires additional investment in the infrastructure in power generation, transportation, manufacturing industries, and buildings. In the power sector, the present worth of the power system cost will be increased by 62.0 % compared to the BAU level (see Table 3-2). The natural gas power plants with CCS and bio-energy with CCS require the highest investment in 2050, followed by wind and solar powers. The transport system cost will be increased by 16.2% compared to the BAU level. Electric trucks and electric pick-ups will account for the highest share of investment followed by electric buses and trucks. In the manufacturing industries, the energy efficiency improvement in the heating and the motor systems and the deployment of CCS require the highest investment in the non-metallic and the chemical industries in 2050. The manufacturing industries system cost will be increased by 15.3% compared to the BAU level. The heating systems, cooling systems, and the installation of solar water heating systems require the highest investment in the building sector; however, building sector shows almost unchanged investment compared to the BAU level because of the reduction in technology prices and greater use of the energy efficient technology during 2030-2050.

The desired reduction of GHG emissions by 2020 of 20 per cent below the BAU scenario level requires decisive actions at the national and sector levels. For instance, considerable abatement contributions are expected to be achieved within the energy sector (533 ktep savings are envisaged from energy efficiency measures and 430 ktep savings from RES implementation covering the energy demand - the policy instruments in place envisage increasing the share of RES in the country's energy balance up to 20 percent by 2020, and covering up to 10 percent of the electricity demand with locally produced renewable energy by 2020).
