Works carried out towards Baseline (First Interim Report) • Analysis of Present State(16 reports) • By Sectors(demography, economy, energy, transport, land-uses, environment, governance) • By Territories(9 macro-zones covering EU+NC) • By European Policies(Cohesion, Agricultural, Transport, Environment…) • CriticalBifurcationsahead(aprox. 25) • Definition ofKey Directions (aprox. 15 Trends + 15 Policies) • Comparison of Baseline Scenarios(aprox. 100 future-oriented studies) • Foresight exercise(indicators at World/EU scale (1950-2050, 10+50 indicators) • Forecast exercise (indicators at NUTS3) • Sectoral models (MULTPOLES, MASST, MOSAIC-TT, METRONAMICA) and Integrated model (SASI) • Analysis of results and adjustment of Baseline Scenario

A metamodel to foresight indicators aggregated at European level 2030-2050
Baseline Reference World Indicators • Population: 9.200 M(Europe from 15% in 1950 to 7% today and 6% in 2050) • Urban population: 69% (Europe 89% in 2050) • GDP: € 135.000 billion(Europe from 39% in 1950 to 30% today and 18% in 2050) • Trade: € 154.000 billion (Europe from 17% in 1950 to 15% today and 9% in 2050) • Maritime transport: € 145.000 billion ton·km(average 3,7% annual growth, EU 2%) • Air transport: € 32.000 billion RPK(average 5,0% annual growth, EU 3,5%) • Tourism: 3.250 million visitors(Europe from 90% in 1950, 45% today and 27% 2050) • Energy Consumption: 24.300 MTOE(Europe 28% in 1950, 17% today, 9% in 2050) • CO2 emissions: 64.000 Mton(Europe from 18% in 1950, 15% today, and 5% in 2050)
Baseline Key Directions to 2050 • Ageing Population: 540 Minh(>65 from 16% to 27%, stable migration 1,5 M/year) • Relative Economic Decline: €24.000billion(from 2,3% growth 1970-2010 to 1,4%) • Growing inequities: 10% with higher GDP/capita captures more GDP growth • Insufficient Technologic Innovation: R&D budget around 2% of GDP • More diversified energy sources: 26% RES (Oil price from € 67 / barrel to € 138) • Climate Change: 35% GHG reduction since 1990 (80% reduction target in force) • Subverted proximities: 8.600 Bpaxkm within EU (0,7%), 7.000 Btnkm (1,6%) Gateways • Increasing Urbanisation: 90% urban pop. (50 cities>1 Minh), periurbanisation • Towards a Multiple-Speed Europe: limited territorial governance structures, EU 1% • Limited public expenditure (50% 2010, 40% 2050), Public Debt (70% to 50%) • Not significant progress in relation to the Territorial Agenda main goals

Europe 2030 Reflexion Group “The challenges we face today are different to those of the past and call for different responses. Whether we look at relative demographic and economic decline, climate change or energy shortages the challenges can only be properly understood and tackled when situated in a regional and global context… …the choice for the EU is clear: reform or decline”.
Baseline ESPON 3.2 Demography Population Ageing Stable total European population Increasing, globally controlled external migration ET2050: slight decrease Economy Moderate GDP increase ET2050: low at 1’4% Slowly increasing total activity rate Slowly growing R&D expenditure ET2050: stable at 2% Decreasing public expenditure Energy Steady increase of energy prices Stable or decreasing European consumption Increasing use of renewables Transport Continued growth of traffic ET2050: urban decoupling, higher trade Increase of infrastructure, below needs ET2050: PPP, better management
Baseline ESPON 3.2 Climate Change Moderate overall climate change Increase in extreme local events Moderateemission levels due to new technologies ET2050: steep decrease but 80% targets not met Spatial development Further diversification of functions of rural areas; stronger dependence upon the residential economy and new forms of tourism ET2050 Increasing urbanisation and periurbanisation ET2050 IIncreasing polarisation Governance Increasingco-operation in cross-border regions ET2050: low cooperation Increase in multi-level cross-sectoral approaches ET2050: corporate governance Enlargements: Western Balkans (2020), Turkey (2030) ET2050: only Balkans ET2050 Multiple-speed Europe (variable geometry, very limited federalism) ET2050 high impact of EU policies –Structural and Cohesion Funds Technology ET2050No technologic radical shift (gradual improvement)
1) European national economies will not be able to adjust to structural transformations in the short term The current economic crisis will still last for a number of years, increasing the gap between more and less developed regions in Europe, and reducing the level of trade between European countries while increasing the trade of each Member State with the rest of the World.
2) Europe will become decarbonised only in the very long term Decarbonisation will be a slow process lasting for a number of decades. Renewable sources and more efficiency on the distribution and use of energy will reduce the energy-intensity and carbon-intensity of the economy, but fossil fuels will still be the most important energy source in the coming decades and the energetic dependency of European countries will still increase. Continuous increases of energy prices are expected.
3) Growing disparities in Europe Disparities will grow in Europe. Social inequalities at local or regional level will become larger. Public support to less developed regions and neighbourhoods will become scarcer and will produce limited, sometimes even contradictory, effects.
4) Increasing urbanization in Europe Territorial patterns will be heterogeneous and diverse in a general tendency towards more relaxed land regulations, especially in less developed regions. Increasing land occupation and increasingly mixed urban and rural uses.
5) Towards a multiple speed Europe There will not be a deep reform of European governance structures towards federalism, but limited adjustments. There will be a general move towards different levels of political integration between countries in a multiple speed Europe.
