  1. WEC Europe-Regional Meeting in Istanbul 17th October 2008 Climate change policybeyond 2012

  2. Terms of Reference The objectives of Task Force are: 1. To develop a long-term view about options for climate change policy in Europe; 2. To deliver long-term scenarios of GHG-emissions and abatement technologies including abatement costs and influence on energy prices; 3. To develop a view on the further development of the EU emissions trading scheme after 2012

  3. Members of the Task Force Study chair Stefan Ulreich (Germany) Czech Republic Mr. Tomáš Chmelík France Christine Faure-Fedigan Nicole Dellero Germany Christian Güthert Uwe Maassen Heimo Friede Hans-Wilhelm Schiffer Italy Federico Rossi Alessandro Clerici Francesca Massara Massimo Ceccariglia Netherlands Theo.

  4. Chapter 1 • General background • Collect statistical material as background • IPCC-data • Global, European, national emissions(by sectors) • Forecast on emissions

  5. Chapter 2 General climate policyComparison global development vs. European development (emissions, political, legal, …), compare different systems (tax, ETS,..), global climate policy context (energy- and GHG-prospective studies), sectoral approach

  6. Chapter 3 • Climate friendly technologies • Identify technologies • Abatement costs • Abatement volumes • Try to explore “unusual” solutions

  7. Chapter 4 Status quo of the EU ETS, non-ETS, pros+cons of ETS, “lessons learned”, other sectors (transport,…), investment incentivised JI/CDM

  8. Chapter 5 Development of EU climate policy beyond 2020 Linking, integration of other sectors/gases, WTO-rules, competitiveness, non-ETS sector, global allocation rules, security of supply, JI/CDM

  9. Chapter 6 • Pathway to a climate friendly Europe • needed investments • attractivity/risk of investments, • energy mix, • connected emissions, • costs for the public (Stern report),

  10. Chapter 7 • Conclusions and recommendations • We need a global price on CO2 emissions • We need more support for climate friendly technologies • Investments are key – longer horizons • Re-balancing necessary: Security of supply and Affordable energy

  11. Time schedule Next Meetings 25th November Paris 13th January Brussels
