Decrease in CO2 emissions from energy and industry between 2022 and 2050.

Achievement of NDCs enables to curb global CO2 emissions by 2030, driven notably by advanced economies and some large emerging countries.

Announced policies and pledges, including NDCs, allow for global CO2 emissions to peak before 2030, and to decrease to around 18 GtCO2 by 2050 - as shown by our EnerBlue scenario. Advanced economies significantly reduce their emissions, as some emerging countries (notably in Asia). Emissions in Africa progress, but at a limited pace.

According to preliminary data from the German Working Group on Energy Balances (AGEB), total energy consumption in Germany is likely to fall to a new low in 2024. AGEB notably expects consumption to fall by 1.3% compared to 2023, to reach a level nearly 30% below Germany’s 1990 consumption.

The Russian Ministry of Energy expects to increase Russia’s installed capacity to 300 GW by 2042, including 169 GW of thermal sources (coal and gas). Under the scheme, the ministry plans to modernise 67 GW from the existing capacity to ensure better reliability. The development plan is expected to be approved by the Russian government before the end of 2024.
