Technology Needs in the Energy Sector Identification and response in German Technical Cooperation UNFCCC/UNDP Expert Meeting on Methodologies for Technology Needs Assessments Seoul 23 - 25 April 2002 Holger Liptowwww.gtz.de/climate
Strategies and Approaches • Policy Advice for sustainable development in the energy sector • Renewable Energies for grid supply • Renewable energies for rural energy supply • Improving energy efficiency and energy saving • Improvement of conventional power plants • Climate Protection Programme (CaPP)
Policy Advice Advisory Service for Energy Policy Uganda (1999 - 2005) • Partner: Ministry of Energy and Mines • So far: • Energy policy paper • Law on liquid fuels • National Strategy on rural electrification • Energy information system • Guidelines for Renewables and energy efficiency projects
Renewable Energies for Grid Supply World Commission on Dams WCD (1998-2000) • Problem: Negative environmental and social impact of large dams • Approach: • International mediation process • Evaluation of Experiences • Recommendations for criteria, guidelines for planning and construction • Avoiding conflicts and reducing risk for investors • Final report: http://www.dams.org/report/ • Support from GTZ for the process
Renewable energies for rural energy supply PV-Pumping drinking water (1990-1997) and Irrigation (1997-2001) • Goal: Gain wide scale experience with Systems (reliability, economics, social acceptance) • 100 PVP systems for drinking water (7 countries) • 10 PVP systems for irrigation ( 3 countries) • Result: • High technical performance • Economically competitive in the range of small Diesel pumps (< 4 kW, < 1.600 m4) • Further Info: www.gtz.de/pvp
Improving energy efficiency and energy saving Brasil: Energy Saving (Small and Medium Sized Enterprises) • Implementation in 13 companies • Information advisory service (technology, energy auditing,...) for approx. 500 companies • Training of Managers and Staff 6 Demo companies • Savings 25-50 % • Pay back in 4-30 months • Increase in productions 30 % • 2 companies:National award for energy efficiency • High competition for SME • Strong Partner at Intermediary Level • National programme of utility for power saving • Cooperation with chamber of commerce in Rio • Info-Tour bras. managers in Germany • German companies as advisors
Improvement of conventional power plantsChinese-German Co-operation in Clean Coal Power Technology Support provided • Boiler optimisation of 32 coal fired power plants (6,000 MW) • Training of power plant manager and operations staff • Mobile measuring truck • Measuring equipment for boilers and auxiliary • Coal savings 270 000 t/a equiv. to 8.2 mio US$/a • SO2 reduction 5000 t/a • Part. Reduction 4000 t/a • 1 US$ technical assistance 20 US$ in coal savings+ environmental benefits • High local air pollution • Low efficiency in power plants • A strong partner Thermal PowerResearch Institute CO2 reduction: 500 000 t/aNew project: 400 power plants, 72 000 MW Expected annual savings: 3 600 000 t CO2 /a
Climate Protection Programme • Technological Options for the Mitigation of Greenhouse Gases in Tanzania Cost-Effectiveness Analysis, Tanzania
Conclusions • Demand for technologies frequently derived from national or sector planning • Dissemination and marketing on a commercially sound bases • EST must have the chance to be competitive • CDM may help in the promoting ESTs.
