How can a 1.5 °C-consistent energy supply be decarbonized?

Second, 1.5 °C-consistent scenarios require a profound near-term decarbonization of energy supply that is more rapid than in 2 °C scenarios. This decarbonization is achieved through early reductions in the electricity sector, and additional emission reductions by 2050 and beyond in end-use sectors, such as industry, buildings and transport.

Why do we need energy storage solutions?

This integration ensures continuous power supply, enhances grid stability and enables greater self-consumption, especially in residential and commercial applications. Energy storage solutions also play a critical role in reducing dependency on fossil fuel-based backup power and mitigating strain on the grid during peak demand periods.

What is a 1.5 °C scenario?

1.5 °C scenarios (or 1.5 °C-consistent scenarios). Scenarios that return warming to below 1.5 °C relative to pre-industrial levels by 2100 with greater than 50% chance. All these scenarios also have a likely 26 (>66%) chance of keeping global warming below 2 °C in the twenty-first century. Likely 2 °C scenarios.

What are 1.5 degrees C-consistent pathways?

The 1.5 degrees C-consistent pathways have several common characteristics: They require far-reaching and historically unprecedented transformations of energy, land, urban, and industrial systems in the next 20 years. All of these pathways achieve net zero CO 2 emissions (carbon neutrality) by mid-century. They all rapidly reduce SLCPs, especially methane and black carbon.

Can we achieve 1.5 °C by 2100?

Achieving 1.5 °C by 2100 will require immediate attention to push mitigation in every individual sector of the economy. This is strongly at odds with climate policy achievements over the past decade and thus requires a significant trend break. This elevates the importance of achieving an ambitious outcome at the 2015 UNFCCC climate summit in Paris.
