Costs of CO{sub 2} reduction technologies for the Netherlands

Abstract

UNEP (United Nations Environmental Programme) has recently launched a project aimed at establishing a set of methodological guidelines for calculating the costs of limiting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, particularly carbon dioxide emissions from the energy sector. This paper contains the contribution of the Business Unit ESC-Energy Studies of the Netherlands Energy Research Foundation (ECN) to the first phase of the UNEP-study. Four important bottom-up technology oriented CO{sub 2} emission reduction studies are reviewed. Attention is paid to the methodology, the type of costs, the technological reduction options, and the evaluated CO{sub 2} emission reduction targets. The aim is to explain systematically the differences in CO{sub 2} emission reduction technology cost curves for the Netherlands, generated by different scenarios for the year 2010. In chapter two descriptions are given of the methodologies, used in the studies and the limitations of the formats of the model outputs. In chapter three a characterization of the four studies and a comparison of the results are made. In chapter four two studies on the costs of CO{sub 2} emission reduction in the Netherlands in the year 2010 are dealt with. 3 figs., 3 tabs., 3 app.
