Italy and Kyoto: ambitions and reality

Ambitions- 6.5% with respect to 1990

521 Mton CO2 eq in 1990- 6.5%

= 487.1 Mton CO2 eq in the first commitment period 2008-2012

KYOTO TARGET

Distinctive features of Italian Energy System

Dependent abroadNo nuclearThe “cool” questionPrivatization-liberalization-regulation

Reality

Energy saving life-style originated by a

strong energy dependence

Non energyintensiveeconomic structure

climate, high population

density

High energyprices

A low energy intensity

due to

2002 Law 39/2002 to enforce the EU Directive for the promotion of renewables June: Italy ratified the Kyoto ProtocolDecember: the new CIPE resolution

200420 April a draft National Allocation Plan

Is it enough?

How much CDM and JI?

Italian firms have a low propensity to invest abroad

FDI towards Developed countries and service sector

Which policies and measures could support CDM and JI decisions?

2004…Time to wake up !

Model specifications:discount rate 5%;the net cost of most P&M is assumed to be zero; simulations from 2002 but policies effective from 2004; the abatement grows linearly; price for ET = 15 Euro/tonCO2

How much will it cost?

TIME plays a crucial role:Opportunity costTechnical limit

We want to estimate the cost of reaching Kyoto assuming different degree of implementation of CIPE Guidelines

The Italian NAPItaly published on 20 April 2004 a draft National Allocation Plan (NAP) under the EU emissions trading scheme.

The non-cogeneration power sector gets the larger share

ConclusionsSurplus in 2010: about + 27%

Domestic P&M cannot solve the problem because of…

time and costs,

current political orientation

CDM-JI ? …. maybe, but let’s avoid exaggerations

Thus, Emissions Trading: how much does it cost?

Thank you for your attention!
