key results | OECD ASIA OCEANIA - CO 2 EMISSIONS & ENERGY CONSUMPTION
While CO2 emissions in OECD Asia Oceania will decrease by 11% in the Reference scenario, under the Energy [R]evolution scenario they will decrease from 2,042 million tonnes in 2009 to 164 million tonnes in 2050. Annual per capita emissions will drop from 10.2 tonnes to 5.8 tonnes in 2030 and 0.9 tonne in 2050. In spite of the phasing out of nuclear energy and increasing demand, CO2 emissions will decrease in the electricity sector. In the long run efficiency gains and the increased use of renewable electricity in vehicles will even reduce emissions in the transport sector. With a share of 31% of CO2 emissions in 2050, the power sector will drop below transport as the largest sources of emissions. By 2050, OECD Asia Oceania’s CO2 emissions are 10% of 1990 levels.

Taking into account the assumptions discussed above, the resulting primary energy consumption under the Energy [R]evolution scenario is shown in Figure 5.147. Compared to the Reference scenario, overall primary energy demand will be reduced by 39% in 2050.

•• •• •
The Energy [R]evolution version phases out coal and oil about 10 to 15 years faster than the previous Energy [R]evolution scenario published in 2010. This is made possible mainly by replacement of coal power plants with renewables and a faster introduction of very efficient electric vehicles in the transport sector to replace oil combustion engines. This leads to an overall renewable primary energy share of 39% in 2030 and 79% in 2050. Nuclear energy is phased out just after 2030.
