Analysis and outlooks to 2040

关于本报告
本报告利用《世界能源展望》系列报告所提出的高效世界情景,探讨若世界各国在2040年前充分实现所有经济上可行的能效措施,将带来的经济和环境上的好处。本报告发现,在实现高效世界情景的前提下,世界经济可以在能源消费仅有限增长的同时增长一倍。特别重要的是,本报告发现仅仅通过采取能效改善措施,即可实现《巴黎协定》提出的全球温室气体排放在2020年达到峰值的目标。
Energy Efficiency 2018 looks at why efficiency’s massive potential remains untapped, and through the new Efficient World Scenario explores what would happen if countries maximized all available cost-effective efficiency potential between now and 2040, highlighting what policy makers can do to realise this opportunity.
Key findings
Energy efficiency works...
Global final energy use with and without energy efficiency, 2000-2017
打开...but that's still not enough
Decomposition of final energy use in the world's major economies, 2017
打开As a result, growth in energy use is accelerating
Change in global primary energy demand, 2000-2017
打开Missed opportunities
With stronger policies in place, last year the world could have saved more than:
The world is missing opportunities to improve energy efficiency and today's policies are not delivering the full potential gains that are cost-effective and use current technology. This delayed action on energy efficiency ends up locking in inefficiencies that mean much stronger action needs to be taken in the future.
2.2 million barrels of oil per day
If all countries had adopted the best passenger fuel economy standards.
16% of industry electricity use
If all countries had adopted the strongest electric motor standards.
$20 billion
If everyone had purchased the top 10% most efficient refrigerators.
The Efficient World Scenario
So what will the world look like if between now and 2040 countries implemented all the economically viable energy efficiency potential that is available? The potential is demonstrated by the Efficient World Scenario developed by the IEA World Energy Outlook.
The Efficient World Scenario (EWS) shows a world with 20% more people, 60% more building space and double the GDP, all for a marginal energy demand rise. The EWS also fully delivers the energy efficiency target of UN Sustainable Development Goal 7. All of the measures implemented in this scenario are cost-effective, based on energy savings alone, and use technologies that are readily available today.
Significant energy productivity
Energy demand, energy intensity and GDP in the EWS, 2000-2040
打开Immediate environmental benefits
The EWS would result in a peak in energy-related greenhouse gas emissions before 2020, followed by a fall by 12% in 2040 compared with today - equal to over 40% of the abatement required to be in line with Paris targets. The EWS would also cut key air pollutants such as sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and particulate matter by one third compared to today. In particular, more efficient cooking could help reduce premature deaths from household air pollution by almost 1 million per year in 2040 in comparison with the IEA New Policies Scenario (NPS).
Energy savings in emerging economies
Emerging economies could become 50% less energy intensive under the EWS, with China and India accounting for one third of total energy demand in 2040. These two countries would also account for over one third of the total energy demand savings, which would translate into savings of nearly $500 billion in fossil fuel imports.

打开What will it take?
The EWS shows that energy efficiency could deliver significant economic, social and environmental benefits, but only if governments take greater policy action. However, the scale up in policy action must start immediately and there are good examples of policies in all end-use sectors that can form the basis for greater action.
Transport energy demand could stay flat to 2040, despite a doubling of activity
Making this happen will require stronger and broader fuel economy standards for both cars and trucks, as well as policies for non-road transport. Incentives can support adoption of more efficient vehicles and electrification of various modes of transport, with information and capacity building to support more efficient transport choices.
We could have 60% more building space in 2040 for no additional energy use
This would require comprehensive efficiency policies, targeting new and existing buildings as well as appliances. Incentives could drive consumers to adopt high efficiency appliances and undertake deep energy retrofits, with market-based instruments encouraging innovative business models. Decision making can be supported by improved quality and availability of energy performance information.
Industry could produce nearly twice as much value per unit of energy in 2040
The majority of energy savings could come from less energy-intensive sectors like food, beverage and textile manufacturing. To realise these savings, performance standards for key industrial equipment, including electric heat pumps and motors, can be complemented by incentives to increase the adoption of energy management systems and improved information.
