Scenarios: Water
12.04.2023
• Climated-induced sea level rise: 10-12 cm (2030) and 17-22cm (2050)
• -28% of phreatic water ressources, coastal aquifers, and non renewable aquifers, -5% of surface water
• Demographic growth, urbanization and economic development lead to increasing water demand
• Increase of salinity of coastal aquifers, water demand for irrigation, and intrusion of marine water

Challenges: Adaptation
12.04.2023
• Tourism: Increase of heat periods, climate induced sea level rise threatening touristic infrastructure, reemergence of
• Agriculture: increase in waterdemand for irrigation, loss of arable land, intensification of land use in vulnerable areas; decrease of production and yield
• Ecosystems: degradation of pastoral ecosystems in the Centre and South (ex. Esparto and Coark Oak)
• Oasis Agriculture: 10% of the Tunisian population depends on Oasis agriculture, which faces diminishing variety of dates, soil salinization, and overexploitation of water ressources

With 3.4 TE CO2 per capita, Tunisia is among the least « emission-intensive » developing countries (world average: 4,5 t/capita)
• Large mitigation potential: 151 million TECO2 from 2008-2020 (Energy 73%, Agriculture 14%, waste 13%)
• CO² intensity decreased by 25% between 1990 and 2009, but economic growth leeds to steep increase of CO² per capita

Tunisia’s National Climate Change Strategy (SNCC)- Scenario analysis
12.04.2023
S1Economic
Growth
S3Ecological Ambition
S2Social
Cohesion
• Scenario I favors economic growth in a context of weak global climate governance.
• Scenario II focuses on poverty reduction and social and spatial equality, as a response to the revolution.
• Scenario III assumes that Tunisia adapts its economic and social development to to a context of strong global climate governance

A Strategic Vision for Tunisia’s Future: A synthesis of 3 Scenarios
12.04.2023
• Social and economic development in the short term with some safeguards (e.g. ressource control) to guarantee ecological development in the medium term
• Objective of reducing CO2 intensity by more than 40% until 2030 and stabilize emissions by 2050
• A proactive adaptation policy largely determined by international aid (e.g. Green Climate Fund)
Key indicators for Tunisia’s strategic vision of the future (GDP, CO2 intensity and CO2 emissions) as a basis of 100

NAMA Renewable Energy
12.04.2023
• Tunisian Solar Plan aims at achieving 20% renewable energy in 2020 and 30% in 2030
• Tunisia suffers from a structural energy deficit; 10% of its state budget is spent on energy subsidies; consumption of electricity is steadily increasing
Expected Reduction Impact and Types of Mitigation Measures
Co-benefits
PV Cells, Wind parcs and CSP will generate energy savings from 2013-2030 of around 13300 ktep. • 58% emanate from wind energy, 24% from
PV• Installed wind parcs will reduce CO2
emissions by 32 MtCO2 by 2030
• Energy security• Green Jobs: 7700 during construction; 2600
maintanance (cumulated , conservative assumption of no
local manufacturing)• Economic gains from energy savings of 11Bi €
(2013-2030)• Infrastructure: Improvement of national electricity

Expected Reduction Impact and Types of Mitigation Measures
Co-benefits
Over 8 million tonnes CO2 equivalent (MtCO2) from 2014-2020, achieved by …
1. Energy efficiency measures: 1.7 MtCO22. Renewable Energy (wind): 2.5 MtCO23. Reduction of clinker/cement ratio: 1.2 MtCO24. Co-processing (use of waste as fuel): 2.6
MtCO2
• Reduces overall energy consumption and increases RE production-> energy security
• Relieves state budget for subsidies • increases the sector‘s competitiveness • Improves waste management
NAMA cement sector
• With 6.4 m tCO² in 2012 and carbon intensity of 0.810 tCO2/t, cement is the most emission intensive industrial sector in Tunisia and accounts for 10% of Tunisian GHG Emissions
Seite 12XXX12.04.2023
• Agriculture represents 16% of Tunisian GDP, 20% of employment and is presonsible for 20% of national emissions (Forestry: 13%)
NAMA Agriculture
Expected Reduction Impact and Types of Mitigation Measures
Co-benefits
Mitigation potential of 2.4 MtCO², including:1. Nitrous-Oxide (N²O): Improved fertilizer mangement
and promotion of organic agriculture2. Methane (CH4): Better livestock management through:
improvement of enteric fermentation process of ruminants; and manure management
3. CO2: Improved Forest Management, reforestation, agroforestry, use of windbreakers and other anti-desertification measures
• Agricultural: Improved performance (better fertilizer management and soil fertility);
• Social: Jobs secured and created; rural poverty improved
• Environmental: positive impact on biodiversity, water quality, desertification and soil fertility
-> more resilience to external chocks; less water and energy
