The largest power generation companies (GenCos) in the world have a tremendous impact on climate change. Indeed, plans to diversify the mix significantly modify the share of carbon-free energy in the final electricity consumption. Those strategies (and implementation) are key levers to meet the Paris Agreement targets.

This said, what actual changes have occurred since 2015 for main players?

• How does the carbon factor look? Greener or browner?
• What plans have been carried out to reduce thermal power plant production?
• Which GenCos are increasing their solar and wind capacities?

In the end, what will 2020 look like, in the world and in Asia? With the constant evolution of the Covid-19 pandemic, this year has been drastically different from what was expected. At Enerdata, we keep monitoring the global energy markets continuously, and are keen to share our findings leveraging our latest statistics and newest short-term estimates with you.

• How big is the energy demand rebound after lock downs?
• Will China record a positive energy consumption growth in 2020?
• Does the Covid-19 pandemic speed-up coal phase out in G20 countries' power mix?
• How big is the drop of energy demand in the transport sector?

We have answered these questions and many more in our Global Energy Trends update webinar, Asia Edition, which too place on October 20^th.

The webinar featured statistics for all energies and emissions, consolidated electricity data up to end of September 2020,  robust estimates for the rest of the year, with focused analysis for the world and some key countries: China, India, Japan and South Korea.

The analysis was conducted by Thierry Badouard, Head of Research at Enerdata.

As part of its support mission to the Algerian Ministry of Energy, financed by the French development agency (AFD), Enerdata was in Algiers from 10 to 14 February 2020 to present a first version of its energy transition scenarios adapted to the Algerian context.

Our EnerNEO tool, which allows the construction of these long-term energy scenarios, has in this case been tailored in order to better reflect the specificities of the Algerian energy sector. The final version of the model will be delivered at a later point to the Algerian authorities, who will be trained in its use in order to be able to prepare scenarios for 2050.

This week was an opportunity for Patrick Criqui (photo), associate expert of Enerdata, to present to a large audience the first results of these scenarios. These will still need to be subjected to some adjustments, particularly in the light of the government's new action plan, published that same week.

Enerdata organised a webinar on 4^th December, 2019. This live session featured in-house analysis by our experts, as part of our work on EnerFuture scenarios and the Energy Transition.
 
We focused on the various strategic alternatives available to governments and companies, the energy mix options and the role of electricity. We explored the issues surrounding the implementation of the Paris Agreement, then went beyond that perspective and analyse the requirements implied by a zero net emission economy.
 
Programme:

• Introduction to the Enerfuture scenarios
• The role of electrification in the decarbonisation of the economy
• Zero net emission: how can it be achieved and is it “the” solution to the climate crisis?

The Electrification Europe 2019 summit organised by EDF took place on 16 and 17 October 2019. Its objective: to provide participants with a space to learn, collaborate and participate in the reflection on electrification solutions to encourage a low-carbon society. Round tables and more technical sessions were organised around four areas of expertise: electric mobility, decarbonising buildings and industry, regulation and finance, and innovation and electrification.

During the "Financing an electrified economy" round table, our president Pascal Charriau presented the historical and future trends in electrification at the global level, whether in industry, transport or construction. The forecasts were based on EnerFuture's EnerBlue and EnerGreen scenarios, respectively on compliance with NDCs or a maximum temperature increase of 2°C at the end of the century. He highlighted the conditions for an acceleration of electrification, in particular the financial levers (taxes, subsidies, debts and obligations...)

With historically high energy consumption and CO₂ emissions from the G20, 2018 was an important year for both energy and climate. That’s why our analysts produce Global Energy Trends – a comprehensive, independent report on the past year’s energy market trends in the G20 and the resulting environmental impacts.
 
On June 6^th, we hosted a live webinar with members of Enerdata’s leadership discussing this year’s statistics and in-house analysis from the report.

Highlights of the topics we discussed in detail:

• Globally, 2018 saw historically high energy consumption, with corresponding record high CO₂ emissions from the G20.
• Increasing gap with a 1.5-2°C scenario
• Gas and electricity are growing quickly; coal and oil are not peaking yet.
• Fossil fuels still represent 80% of the primary energy mix, with gas gaining market share over coal.
• Strong growth in renewables, but with no acceleration in the pace of capacity additions.
• Q&A session

The presentation was followed by an interactive Q&A session with the participants.

Enerdata presented a no-cost webinar on the Energy Transition Monitoring methodology, including analysis and case studies.

In the framework of the Paris Agreement, most countries in the world committed to reducing their greenhouse emissions. These commitments are now incorporated in the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) that indicate the targets for 2025–2030. This said, most studies consider that current NDCs are incompatible with the "below 2°C" target of the Paris Agreement.

Enerdata aims to identify two gaps: an "implementation gap" between the observed trends and the NDCs goals of energy and climate transition policies, and a "trajectory gap" between the NDCs and 2°C compatible trajectories. To do so, Enerdata combines relevant data from (1) the existing Enerdata international energy databases, (2) structured information on NDCs and national policies and (3) energy projections according to the EnerFuture country-level scenarios leveraging the POLES world energy model for 56 countries.

The webinar presented the EnerTraM tool, and methodology, as well as analyses and case studies on four countries that reflect diversity in terms of data availability, country status and decarbonisation policies: Mexico and Vietnam as emerging countries, Senegal as a developing country and France as an industrialized country.

The presentations were followed by an interactive question and answer session with the audience.

Transitioning Towards Sustainable Low-Carbon City Development.

Enerdata joined leaders from Asian Governments, leading think-tanks and global corporations this past November 29^th & 30^th in Changsha to discuss the pathways to develop Cities with low carbon technologies and innovations.

Enerdata introduced best practices and sharing case studies to Low carbon city implementation and towards China's ambitious plan to meet the Paris Agreement for GHG emissions before 2030.

The main purpose of this Forum was to introduce the most advanced LCTs and exchange global experience and lessons on developing low carbon cities through LCT innovation and investment.

The agenda for the conference touched on global low carbon technology scenarios, and considered its international impact. The important areas  covered featured views from the international community to discuss the type of global-level directions required to strengthen low carbon technology development, and the importance of international collaboration in empowering cities to adapt low carbon technologies.

Some of the speakers this year included:

• Dazhe Xu, Governor, Hunan Province (PRC)
• Yongping Zhai, Chief of Energy Sector Group, Asian Development Bank
• Zhen Sun, Deputy Director General, Department of Climate Change, NDRC (PRC)

Enerdata, in partnership with The Clean Energy Solutions Center, hosted a webinar : " Determining Future Energy Efficiency Potential across Sectors: Case Study on Germany " on the main energy efficiency drivers at sectoral and end-use levels, and their impact on future energy consumption.

Energy demand is a growing concern as reserves are gradually depleting, emissions mitigation is getting more and more urgent, and there are still technological, business and political hurdles to a widespread development of renewable and clean energies globally. Robust forecasting plays a vital role in energy supply-demand management for both government bodies and private companies as national objectives set in energy plans are becoming more and more ambitious. For this reason, Enerdata has been developing over the last two decades the EnerMED  model, (previous Medpro) used by policymakers as well as business and strategic planners to forecast energy consumption at the country level and determine and rank the energy efficiency potential across sectors.

This webinar « Determining Future Energy Efficiency Potential across Sectors: Case Study on Germany » analysed the overall energy demand pathways of different  EnerMED  (previous MedPro scenarios in the particular case of Germany. The analysis quantified the huge importance of the residential and transport sectors as primary energy efficiency pools.

The webinar was carried on by Dr. Manfred Hafner.

On September 4-7, Dr. Manfred Hafner, Vice-President at Enerdata, participated to the 15^th International Association for Energy Economists IAEE European Conference 2017 in Vienna. He was invited to address a plenary session on “Geopolitics of oil and gas in Europe” and to specifically address the subject of “Energy Supply Security in Europe”.

Dr. Hafner argued that thanks to the oversupplied oil and gas markets combined with the changing gas market structure, traditional security of supply considerations have today lost some of their urgency, but there are new security of supply issues emerging, which are linked to the energy transition, and which should be taken seriously. These relate to some degree to the capability of integration of a very rapidly increasing penetration of intermittent renewable energy sources into electricity grids, but much more importantly, the risk of cyberattacks on our electricity grids. Our electricity grids are indeed more and more vulnerable as we advance with the ongoing 3-D revolution (Decarbonisation, Digitalisation and Decentralisation) which will more and more be based also on smart grids. He therefore concluded that Europe needs to prepare itself for the threats of the future and not just focus on the threats of the past. In addition, Dr. Hafner was also asked to preside two parallel sessions of the conference, one on fossil fuels and one on renewable policy.

Enerdata recently presented the “Global Energy Trends, 2017 edition” to top energy journalists and to a panel of customers in Paris.

Every year, Enerdata is the first institute providing such an independent analysis, leveraging its expertise and trusted energy databases.

This Global Energy Trends presentation outlined the key evolutions of the energy markets in the G20 in 2016 and answered the following questions:

• Did 2016 confirm the last two years of stabilisation of energy demand and CO₂ emissions?
• Is China's predominance in renewables confirmed?
• What is the role of the United States in the energy transition?
• Has natural gas regained market share against coal?
• Are the current trends in energy efficiency and power sector decarbonisation in line with COP21 Paris Agreement?

The presentation is available in French and in English

Enerdata’s Vice-President Consulting, Dr. Manfred Hafner has recently participated in a high-level panel discussion on the “East Mediterranean Basin: A New Gas Hub for Europe” with the Energy Ministers of Egypt, Cyprus, Lebanon and Greece as well as the Chief Exploration Officer of Eni. The panel was organised in the framework of the Offshore Mediterranean Conference (OMC2017) in Ravenna on March 29^th.

In his introductory speech, Dr. Hafner presented different valorisation and export options of the important natural gas finds in the Eastern Mediterranean, including different pipeline and LNG options, and argued that we are in the presence of a circular problem: if there are political or commercial risks that no export infrastructure will be in place when production starts, a lot of money will be lost. If on the other side the field underperforms compared to expectations, expensive export infrastructure will sit idle. Therefore, connecting an underused and scalable export infrastructure like the Egyptian LNG plants with several promising fields in the area could be the key to unlocking the untapped regional potential. He thus underlined the importance to have a cooperative approach among different countries, as interconnections create interdependencies, and interdependencies promote stability and peace. The bigger the gas resources, the more important they become for all parties involved and they can become a political game-changer in the region. All the Ministers of the region present at the panel have during their interventions reiterated the importance of regional cooperation.

Enerdata Singapore Managing Director, Antonio Della Pelle, has actively contributed to the seminar called “INNOVATIONS IN ENERGY SERVICES”, organised by the Singapore Manufacturing Federation and Clarion Event. The seminar has been organised to help Singapore energy management professionals to prepare for the stricter energy efficiency and emission control regime and implement renewable energy solutions within the Singapore Energy Environment. Antonio moderated one of the sessions, and shared with the audience the vast experience that Enerdata has related to Energy Efficiency, including the regional projects such as Odyssee (Europe) and Cepal (Latin America), plus several contributions at country level in Asia. Enerdata shared the fact that Energy Efficiency is performing very well in the building and commercial sectors and not doing too well in the industry sector. Based on our projects we noted that, at the EU level, energy efficiency for final consumers, as measured by ODEX, improved by an average of 1.3 % per year from 2000 to 2014. In industry, the pace of energy efficiency improvements has been halved since the economic crisis (1.1 % per year since 2008, compared with around 2.2 % per year between 2000 and 2008). In the residential sector, despite the economic crisis, there has been steady progress and larger gains than in the other sectors (1.8 % per year). This trend can be explained by the introduction of the many regulations affecting buildings and appliances. The efficiency in the transport sector is steadily increasing by 1 % per year, mainly thanks to cars, as efficiency gains slowed down for other modes.

The industry lacks of proper regulations and policies and the Energy Efficiency becomes highly depending on ROI (Return On Investments), and with low energy prices, energy efficiency solutions are becoming too expensive. Interesting to share, that Mr. Ang Kok Kiat, Director, Energy Efficiency & Conservation Department, NEA, told the audience some future plans of the Singapore Government to introduce new regulations on motors energy efficiency within the industry that coupled with the recent announcement of the introduction of a carbon tax in Singapore, then the Singapore Industry needs to embrace Energy Efficiency solutions no matter what, because now both regulations and ROI will support such activities.

Enerdata is well-placed to support the companies’ strategies for future Energy Planning and is looking forward to being an active contributor of Singapore Energy Reduction activities by sharing its 30 years of experience working both at policy and plant levels.  Please contact us if you would like to learn more how Enerdata experience can support your plans.

• Ener-Green explores the implications of more stringent energy and climate policies, in order to limit the global temperature increase at around 1.5-2°C by the end of the century
• Finally, Ener-Brown describes a world with durably low fossil fuel energy prices, affecting the entire energy system over a long period

The presentation is based on findings from EnerFuture service and POLES model, and covers key issues and trends in world energy demand, supply and CO₂ emissions. Specific focuses were made on EU, Asia and Africa. Enerdata also introduced a project concerning the monitoring of energy transition.

Following this workshop, a public webinar has taken place on March 28^th, led by Manfred HAFNER and Morgan CRENES.

Enerdata’s Vice-President of Consulting, Dr. Manfred Hafner, spoke at the 1^st AIEE (Italian Association of Energy Economists) Energy Symposium on December 2^nd, 2016 in Milan (Italy).

Dr. Hafner presented key findings of Enerdata’s Enefuture scenarios both worldwide and in Europe with emphasis on the challenges in decarbonizing European energy systems. This presentation also highlighted how the energy industry must adapt to a new transition governed by a 3-D energy paradigm: decarbonisation, digitalisation and decentralisation.

The AIEE Energy Symposium’s objective, in partnership with the Bicocca University of Milan, was to provide open dialogue about the future energy landscape among academic, business, government and international organisations. Topics addressed were to discuss existing energy trends as well as challenges and innovative solutions to enhance global energy security.

Enerdata took part in the 22^nd Session of the Conference of Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP22) in Marrakech, from 7 to 18 November 2016.

Enerdata experts presented and participated in 4 side events:

Round Table: How Sustainable Energy can drive Prosperity?:
Thursday 10^th November, Organised by OCPPC (in English)
Energy is a crucial input for economic prosperity, making the transition to low-carbon energy in developing countries a crucial issue.
This session will bring together experts to discuss the following questions: What would be the drivers and conditions to maximise prosperity while minimising the production and use of coal and oil? What will be the consequences of such a constraint? Under which conditions can a decoupling between fossil energy and GDP growth take place? What consequences would be induced by a delay in the implementation of this energy shift?

Round Table: Quantify national and sectoral impacts of the INDCs and the role of carbon pricing policies:
Monday 14^th November, Organised by Enerdata/I4CE/AFD (in French)
The roundtable will examine the main criteria to guide policymakers towards more efficient and relevant choices in climate and energy policies to engage and support the transition to a low carbon economy and to achieve mitigation objectives. This event is particularly aimed towards developing countries that are interested in implementing carbon pricing policies to peruse low carbon growth models.
Enerdata has extensive experience in aiding various countries and international institutions define strategies related to climate and energy policies, in particular analysing the implications of greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. To better compare and assess climate ambitions, Enerdata has developed three scenarios based on the global energy-saving model: POLES. The analysis will focus on how development needs and climate constraints could be reconciled.

Round Table: Energy efficiency: The direct pathway towards sustainable energy
Thursday 17^th November, organised by Enerdata/ADEME/WEC (in French
This side event, for the first time, presents the World Energy Council (WEC) 2016 report entitled “energy efficiency: the pathway for sustainability”. It evaluates energy efficiency trends by sector and World region and highlights the main innovative energy efficiency policies and measures (P&Ms) implemented worldwide.
The round table will focus on what can we learn from the best trends and P&Ms implemented at national and sectoral levels and how is it transferable to other countries/regions. It will discuss the key considerations to guide policymakers to make more accurate choices on energy efficiency policies to drive their transition towards a low-carbon economy and thus achieve their energy efficiency targets. This side-event is particularly aimed at emerging and developing countries (specifically: North and Central Africa) that are interested in implementing policies to pursue energy savings.

Side Event: How to align EU policy with the goals of the Paris Agreement?
Thursday 17^th November, organised by Enerdata/IETA/I4CE (in English)
The International Emissions Trading Association (IETA), the Institute for Climate Economics (I4CE) and Enerdata will gather experts from the EU institutions, major European industrial companies, research institutes and think tanks to discuss at COP22 how we can together align current EU climate policies with the outcomes and goals of the Paris Agreement.
The side event will lean on Enerdata’s expertise and modelling scenarios for decarbonisation pathways and policy recommendations in discussing a range of topics. Key features will include the reflection of the 5-year review cycle of the Paris Agreement on EU law, how the framework of the Paris Agreement can help the EU in achieving emissions goals, how to synergise policies with non-EU members and the potential role of an UN supported REDD+ component in future EU climate policy and as part of the EU Effort Sharing Decision.

Enerdata presented MACCs model at international climate modelling conference in Seoul.

The Greenhouse Gas Inventory & Research Center of Korea (GIR) invited Enerdata’s Morgan Crenes to present “Marginal Abatement Cost Curves (MACCs) & Techno-economic carbon price models for ETS” at its 2016 International Modelling Conference – Carbon Price Modelling & Policy Analysis for Efficient GHG Reduction. Enerdata was proud to be able to support the GIR and demonstrate its MACCs model to the conference members.

Monitoring the market uptake of nearly Zero-Energy Buildings across Europe

What have we learned from the nZEB market uptake since 2010?

Are Energy Performance Certificates a useful tool on the real-estate market? What impact can the review of the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD) have on the nZEB ambitions?

This conference answered these questions and shared knowledge on how to reach the ambitious target of a 100%-share of nZEBs for new buildings after 2020, as well as a substantial increase of deep nZEB renovations. Participants had the opportunity to debate policy recommendations and strategies to accelerate the market uptake of nZEBs with leading experts in this field and decision-makers.

The conference allowed for a deep dive into a cross-country comparison of barriers, drivers and best practices focusing on the economic aspects of the transition to nZEBs. On top, data-tools were used to showcase the status and evolution of several key features of the overall building stock and nZEB activities.

The speaker line-up included Vasco Ferreira (DG ENER), Berna Bohrer-Topaloğlu (European Investment Bank) and many more.

On Wednesday 18 May Enerdata had the 3^rd Enerdata Energy Day in Singapore. This year event was co-hosted with JYD, the Enerdata strategic partner for China.

The Enerdata annual event has been growing year on year and this year we experienced the biggest turnover of people. We shared with the attendees the POLES results of our main three forecast scenarios, then our Chinese partner went into the details of the Chinese Oil Market including the new Energy Policies that have reshaped the Chinese oil market opening up the refining private sector or so called teapots refineries to become international players. We did discuss in more details about Gas and LNG, South East Asia energy developments and we concluded the full day seminar discussing the importance of energy efficiency and benchmarking to ensure companies run their operation in the most energy efficient way. The speakers shared a wealth of data, information and experience with the Audience and the Audience appreciated it.

As usual the feedback from the attendees was extremely positive and looking forward to next year event. From the discussions it came up evident people were interested to learn more about renewables, realise that no matter what fossil fuel will remain an important component for our primary energy demand for the near and mid future and finally we all recognised that Energy Policies are extremely important if we want to shape a low emissions future.

This year Audience was extremely diverse. We have major Oil & Gas Companies, Engineering companies, Banks, Financial institutions, researcher and power generation and utilities companies.

We thank all the speakers and attendees to make the Enerdata Energy Event a successful event full of Energy.

On April 5^th, 2016 The Clean Energy Solutions Center, in partnership with Enerdata, hosted a no-cost webinar on Global Energy Scenarios to 2040.

Following the COP 21 in Paris, Enerdata produced 3 global energy scenarios up to 2040: Ener-Blue, Ener-Green and Ener-Brown. The Ener-Blue scenario provides an outlook of energy systems up to 2040, based on the achievement of the 2030 targets as defined in the Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) announced at the COP 21. Ener-Green explores the implications of more stringent energy and climate policies to limit the global temperature increase at around 1.5-2°C by the end of the century. Finally, Ener-Brown describes a world with durably low fossil fuel energy prices, affecting the entire energy system over time. These different scenarios explore the consequences on energy supply and demand, energy mix and energy prices by fuel and region, as well as the implications on climate issues.

This webinar provided an overview of the results related to the Ener-Blue scenario (INDCs), its impacts on different energy sources and geographical regions, as well as its challenges in implementation. It also showed what additional commitments are needed to move from the Ener-Blue scenario to the Ener-Green (2°C) scenario, and it presented the consequences of the Ener-Brown scenario which considers an abundance of cheap hydrocarbon resources and its effect on renewables and emissions.

The presentations were followed by an interactive question and answer session with the audience.

Following on the success of the Enerdata Exclusive Energy Seminars held in Singapore and Tokyo, on Tuesday December 15, Enerdata has delivered the first Exclusive Energy Seminar in Kuala Lumpur. The theme of the seminar were a review of the COP21 outcome, an insight of the energy demand outlook and prices, a deep down analysis of the Malaysian Oil and Gas Industry followed by a case study on risk analysis of investment related to Power & Gas in Malaysia by utilising the Enerdata Risk Index methodology. Antonio Della Pelle, Managing Director of Enerdata Asia, shared Enerdata’s insight on the global energy outlook markets within a context of climate change mitigation feasibility, David Turner, the Enerdata Senior Associate based in Malaysia, went in more details about the Oil and Gas Industry with special attention to Malaysia and Abhishek Rohatgi, the Enerdata Power and Gas Analyst introduced the Enerdata Energy Risk Index Methodology that is utilised in the new Power & Gas Risk Analysis studies by Enerdata and provided a real case study including multi-country benchmarking.

The main messages to take away from the Seminar were that the audience shared their concerns on the specific climate change actions published by the Malaysian government with a very limited amount of new renewable technology. There were also interesting discussions on the likelihood of having nuclear power in Malaysia and this is very interesting because Enerdata Asia is involved in Nuclear related assignments for South East Asia countries. On this subject we have recently published a new report covering the Nuclear Situation in Asia with special focus on South East Asia.

Overall the response from the attendees was very positive and they were all keen to participate to the next Enerdata Energy Seminar and there has been a general demand to know and learn more about renewables. If you would like to have more insights about the material presented please do contact us.

On November 5 and 6, Enerdata attended the 7^th JYD Annual Meeting at Wuhan, China. The theme of the two days event was the China Oil and Gas markets, with China opening up the import market to private players too.

Enerdata held the public webinar: Assessment of existing and future carbon markets and emission reductions.

More than 50 countries announced in their Intended National Determined Contributions (INDC) that they are planning to use market-based mechanisms. Market-based instruments like Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) and carbon tax create a CO₂ price. To be efficient in achieving the GHG reduction target, energy-economy models allow providing quantitative information on what would be the impacts of these instruments over time, on CO₂ price and on the different sectors.

Presented case studies:

• The European Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) and ongoing reform (Market Stability Reserve, MSR)
• The future Chinese ETS and its role in achieving its INDC by 2030

Speaker:

Dr. Cyril Cassisa is a senior expert on energy and climate policy analysis. He has 10-year experience between China and France in academic research and cooperation development. Cyril is a member of the high-level Sino-French expert group on climate change and participated to UNFCCC with the French Delegation from COP19 to COP21.

Enerdata delivered a full day Exclusive Enerdata Energy Seminar in Tokyo. The Seminar speakers were Antonio Della Pelle, Enerdata Singapore Managing Director and Hiroyuki Tatsumi, Jupiter Director, the Enerdata’s Japanese strategic partner.

During the day we had 24 people attending the seminar that has received top marks by our Japanese Clients. The topics discussed included Energy outlook up to 2040, Oil Market, LNG Market and Power and Gas Risk Analysis. The day has seen very interactive sessions with several questions and in depth discussions.

The attendees had also the exclusivity to be the very first people in the world to see the new latest product created by Enerdata called Power and Gas Risk Analysis Reports, based on the newly created Enerdata Risk Index. The attendees were impressed by the transparency and solidity of the Enerdata Risk Index methodology and impressed by the results of the benchmarking between countries by using the ERI index and its fundamentals.

Enerdata, in partnership with The Clean Energy Solutions Center, hosted a no-cost, webinar-based training on Energy Efficiency in Transport analysing the successes and failures.

Transport is widely recognized as one of the most difficult sectors for improving energy efficiency and slowing energy demand growth, as part of the problem goes beyond energy efficiency policy measures. Most G20 countries have focused so far on improving the energy efficiency of cars. While in many OECD countries transport energy demand has been decreasing, partly because of these measures and partly because of the economic downturn, in emerging countries transport energy demand is still growing rapidly, driven by the increase in traffic of goods and passengers and a modal shift to road transport.

The purpose of this webinar was to review the various policy measures implemented in the transport sector (such as minimum energy performance standards, labels and promotion of modal shifts) within the European Union and in G20 countries and to relate them to energy demand growth and energy efficiency improvements.

On Tuesday 8^th April, Antonio Della Pelle, Managing Director of ENERDATA PTE LTD gave a morning talk to the members of the Singapore International Chamber of Commerce about Nuclear Power and its impact on Asia.

After the Fukushima accident the very idea of a nuclear renaissance has been turned upside down. Until recently, nuclear energy was still perceived by many as a reasonably affordable option to generate bulk electricity while increasing security of supply and mitigating climate change concerns. A defining moment for world energy markets, the Fukushima accident have initially lead to new projects being delayed and cancelled, existing plants decommissioned earlier than planned, and safety rules thoroughly reassessed.

As an initial consequence, the cost of existing and new nuclear power generation have risen and made nuclear relatively less competitive against gas, coal, or wind power; especially in liberalised electricity markets. However, few years have passed since and we are witnessing that many countries are still seriously considering nuclear as an acceptable option to diversify their mix, increase their energy security and free up oil and gas resources for exports. Few example to mention are the UK Hinkley Point C project that is causing a lot of debates between UK and EU commission, the newly Poland rectified Nuclear Power Program, the decision for South Korea to spend US$7bn to build new reactors and the Japan opposition party making a propaganda agenda based on a free-nuclear country and much more.

Definitely, there is a lot going on about Nuclear and the Enerdata gave a brief summary of the Global Nuclear Power Generation trends, high level view of the latest key countries’ energy policies and an update of the decommissioning and the new projects with particular focus to the South East Asia region and highlights about Singapore position about Nuclear.
Antonio Della Pelle, the Managing Director of Enerdata Singapore, said about the talk “ We, at Enerdata Pte Ltd, have made a mission to educate people on key energy related issues by bringing a 3600 views on the subjects. I really much enjoyed seeing the room full of people with diverse background joining our discussion about Nuclear because we are all involved in it from its many different aspects from Analysts to manufacturers, from bankers to lawyers and etc.”. He continued saying: “We made a commitment to SICC that we will bring another energy talk by the end of the year to add value to the Enerdata SICC membership participation”.
