Sustainable Development in the Region
26th Session of the Committee on Sustainable Energy 27 September 2017, Geneva
ENERGY
Progress fell short of what is needed to meet 2030 targets
Electricity Access: Target: 100%, 2014: 85.3%
Access to Clean Cooking Fuels & Techn.: Target: 100%, 2014: 57.4%
Share Renewables in TFC: Target: 36%, 2014: 18%
Energy Efficiency: Target: -2.6% CAGR, 2012-214: -2.1% (compare CAGR 2010-2012: -1.9%)

Energy-Sector Greenhouse Gas Intensity in TPES in UNECE countries
(2012-2014)
• Data gaps for many countries
• Different reporting periods
• Mainly bottom up reporting of emissions
• No independent verification of submitted data

Tracking Energy for Sustainable Development
Indicators across the Sustainable Energy System

Broad set of indicators required
• Fossil fuels related aspects (share of FF in TPES, generation efficiency, etc.)
• Climate aspects such as climate intensity of the energy sector
• Nexus considerations such as for the energy-water-food nexus
• Quality of life
Review of existing indicators
• Renewable Energy: Share of RE in TFEC versus Share of RE in TPES, Investments into RE
• Move beyond physical access to quality of access, including affordability

Tracking Progress across renewable energy and energy efficiencyindicators
• 17 countries of South East and Eastern Europe, the
Caucasus, Central Asia and the Russian Federation
• First edition in 2015
• A reliable data baseline for increased investment
activity
• Strong Involvement of key stakeholders for data
collection and review: governments, IOs, and civil
society
• Key finding: decline of RE investments. Why ?

Deriving a set of
indicators that helps
to track progress on
energy across the
2030 Agenda.

SDG7 Review at the
High-Level Political
Forum (HLPF)
Defining energy indicators
beyond SDG7 that allow a
more holistic assessment
of progress, while making
the linkages to other
energy-related SDGs.

SE4ALL Indicators: 100% Access to electricity, 98% Access to clean cooking fuels
Energy Services
Beyond Physical Access
14
Access Realities
• Some countries face limited power supply, outages, poor service quality, despite 100% access
• Human comfort and safety depends on substantial heat services in most UNECE countries
• Significant challenge to upgrade, renew older un-insulated housing stock, with locked-in fossil fuel dependence
Energy Poverty
• In all countries, low-income households make tradeoffs between heat, food, or other needs
• Measurable proportion of households spend more than 10% of income on energy
• Addressing GHG emissions without energy efficiency could worsen energy poverty
‘Efficiency first’ offers a least cost approach to improving service and access.
ENERGY
SE4ALL Indicators: 8MJ/USD in 1990 to 5.1MJ/USD in 2014 (2011ppp)
3.9EJ avoided TFC between 2012 -2014
Energy Efficiency
Demand and Supply Side Perspectives
15
Demand Side Energy Efficiency
• Most countries have National Energy
Efficiency Action Plans, but limited progress
and compliance tracking
• Building energy efficiency is slow
• Solid appliance efficiency progress in North
America and the EU
• Largely untapped industry energy
management productivity potential
• Outside EU, vehicle fuel economy not
progressing
Further value in studying energy efficiency
progress, potentials and prospects.
Supply Side Energy Efficiency
• Fossil fuel power plant efficiency grew
from 36% in 1990 to 41% in 2014
• Gas fired generators improved from
37% in 1990 to 49% in 2014, the highest
amongst regions
• Electricity T&D losses declined from
8.2% in 1990 to 7.2% in 2014, the lowest
amongst the regions
• Natural gas T&D fell from 1.2% to 0.6%
Significant scope to replace coal with gas
and renewable energy power options
ENERGY
SE4ALL Indicators: Share RE in TFC: 5.9% (1990) to 11.5% (2014)
Renewable Energy
Integration Challenges
16
Overall, significant fossil fuels lock-in, but
• Development in introducing more competitive market-based support mechanisms such as auctions are increasingly applied
• Traditional wood stoves offer efficient low-cost RE
• Experience and lessons learnt from countries with significant RE upscaling within the region
• Challenges exist regarding the market design to manage variability, and financial incentives to provide needed back-up
With 100% access, the role of utilities is critical
• Market design is key to managing variability,
• Capacity pricing motivates renewable energy that complements system load dynamics,
• Need to enabling economic demand and supply side choices.
• Clear accountabilities for back up.
