Resource Efficiency for Green Growth: Is much of the Asia in an advantageous position to Low Carbon World? International Conference on Green Industry in Asia 10September 2009, Manila Shuzo Nishioka Institute for Global Environmental Strategies (IGES) National Institute for Environmental Studies (NIES) Japan
To stabilize climate, demand side energy saving, especially in developing countries, plays a big role globally % OECD nOECD Share 35 65 Energy saving -47 -59 Supply side Demand side 2050 2005
Key conclusion: 1.Japan has the technological potential to reduce its CO2 emission by 70% compared to the 1990 level, while satisfying the expected demand for energy services in 2050. 2. Energy saving and LC primary energy contribute almost equally. 3. Innovation necessary not only in technology but in social infrastructure and institutions as well Japan Low Carbon Society 2050 ScenarioAresearch result to endorse Japanese policy of 60-80% reduction in 2050 by NIES, Kyoto Univ., TIT, Tokyo Univ. +α(2004-2009) Prime Minister Fukuda in Congress (Jan. 2008)“..maximize Japanese environmental power, lead world transition towards Low Carbon Society…” (May 18) Japanese long-term target 60-80% reduction until 2050,

Eco-efficiency and Factor *The higher the value, the greater the eco-efficiency is. Value of a product Eco-efficiency = Environmental Impactof a product *The value of the factor indicates to what extent the eco-efficiency of the product has increased. Factor = Degree of Improvement of Eco-efficiency Toshiba’s Approach: “Factor T” integrating three environmental perspectives - To optimize the trade-off between Environment and Lifestyle - • Integration of environmental impact by the LIME Method • Integration of value of a product with multiple functions by the QFD method • Integration of product and business process eco-efficiency
What is Product Value? QFD matrix • Voice of customer is translated into engineering metrics. • Customers’ evaluation of a product is reflected in an indicator to enhance customer satisfaction. • We adopted QFD* method to reflect customers’ evaluation in determination of product value. *QFD (Quality Function Deployment):A systematic process for integrating product functions based on the degree of importance customers attach to them when selecting a product.

Factor Description and Applications • “Factor T” is already applied to 80% of all Toshiba products. • Factors are calculated on the basis of FY2000 models. • Graph shows factors of products using two axes: • “Value Factor” • “Environmental Impact Reduction Factor” • Lines indicate enhancement of the value or reduction of the environmental impact.

ADB-IGES Joint Publication in 2008 Toward Resource Efficient-Economies in Asia and the Pacific Results From “Toward Resource Efficient Economies in Asia and the Pacific” March 2009 Taku OHMURA 3R Project Team Leader Asian Development Bank
The Report: • Propositions: • Current inefficient development patterns do not allow the region to continue support high demand resource without negative impacts: • higher price, severe degradation, growing internal competition • Government around the region have the ability to follow an alternative path not only to avoid such impacts but also to take advantage of opportunities to invest in infrastructure and institutes wisely: • Strengthen competitiveness, generate jobs, provide clean and productive environment
Resource Inefficiency in Asia • Resource efficiency has huge room to improve in developing countries • Energy consumption per GDP of PRC is 3 times higher than US, 10 times than Japan) • In many mega-cities, non-revenue water of water supply is around 40% • In developing countries, 75% of water intended to for irrigation is lost to evaporation, leakage, seepage of bad management • Fresh water is a renewable resources, but world demand for water has tripled over last half century, it increasingly emerging scares commodity due to population pressure, intensive irrigation, erratic weather pattern, and pollution caused by human activities.
Needs for Resource Efficiency Improvement in Asia (1) • Asian economies is continuing its growth, even its growth rate is slowing down. Economic expansion is associated with rapid urbanization (2.21 Billon in 2040 1.56 Billion current) • Necessary to improve services to the people, to reduce poverty (54% of population living less than $2/day poverty line or 27% for <$1.25/day) • more than 600 million people lack access to safe drinking water and nearly 2 billion people have inadequate, or no, sanitation facilities. • Resulting in rapidly increasing demand of resources (material, energy and water), and waste generation (solid waste, pollutants, GHG) • Asian energy consumption will grow by 112% from 2005 to 2030 • GO2 emission from Asia will be doubled and represent 36% of world emission in 42% in 2030 in comparison to 29% in 2005 • Solid waste generation will be doubled in 2050
Needs for Resource Efficiency Improvement in Asia (2) -- Not only for environmental objectives, but also economic competitiveness and sustainable economic growth -- • Tackling Local Environmental Problems • Mitigating Climate Change • Ensuring Energy Security (+water/food security) • Preserving Natural Capital • Improving Economic Competitiveness • Minimizing Disposal Costs • Developing New Business Opportunities • Pursuing Social Benefits • Avoiding Resource Conflicts
Government role: Develop National Policy Framework • Overarching Policies, such as “Circular Economy” • National Policies to Support Material, Energy and Water Efficiency • Targets, Monitoring, and Benchmarking Report examines wide range of policy instruments: Regulatory, Economic and Financial, Information-based, Voluntary Initiatives, Substance, product or technology bans, Extended producer Responsibility and take-back, Green purchasing, Biomass policies and programs, Construction and demolition debris, Energy Audit, Energy Efficiency and Emission Standards, Energy pricing and taxation, Favorable subsidies (tax credit & favorable loan), Energy service company, Demand side management, GHG reduction project, Improving allocative efficiency, River basin planning, Water Pricing, Water market
Government Role : Investing in Resource-Efficient Infrastructure • Infrastructure investments often establish a country’s pattern of resource use for subsequent decades. If traditional low efficiency infrastructure is introduced, the economies and the sustainability of resource use will suffer in the long term. • ADB estimates: US$60 Billion/yr is needed to expand urban services – water, sanitation, SWM, road, and mass transit. • US$8 Billion/yr over the next decade to meet MDG targets for sanitation and safe drinking water • Investment in industry and energy sectors is continuing to meet the increasing demands • US$6 trillion needed for energy investments by 2030
Conclusion • Resource efficiency for reducing energy demand is the key to shift to Low Carbon Society, front- runner to the stationary world • Embedding resource efficiency concept into management is indispensable to win international competition among countries and business as well • Fully integrated application of resource efficiency concept required: innovations in products as well as in infrastructure and institutions to activate them. Immediate action of Governments based on firm future oriented plan is indispensable • Much of the Asia now situates in an advantageous position to leapfrog to resource efficient society, avoiding locked–in with past inefficient developing pattern, if their current rapid and massive investment aims properly to our common future • Collaboration first, competition second: collaborative improvement of resource efficiency benefits widely over the countries in Asia, under tightening regional flow of materials and energy, within stationary world
