Main findings
2050 projections of power and industrial high temperature heating sectors:
-
Projected no-action emissions based on current energy mix: 278.1 MtCO2e /year+
-
Using only local measures, reaching net zero emissions in the modelled sectors requires a mitigation cost of USD 14.80/tCO2e
-
Most important needle mover is onshore wind, coupled with openfield PV and storage technologies (batteries and ammonia)
-
In international collaboration, green electricity trade with other countries helps reduce mitigation costs to USD 10.70 - USD 14.70/tCO2e. Onshore wind and ammonia storage in Thailand remain essential to reach zero emissions in collaboration
+Emissions are the annualised value for a 30-year project starting in 2050 (i.e., divided by 30 from the total project emisions
