  4. Russia: facts and figures • Area: 17,098,242 sq. km • Population: 142,500,482 (July 2013 est.) • GDP (purchasing power parity): $2.555 trillion (2012 est.) • Climate: ranges from steppes in the south through humid continental in much of European Russia; subarctic in Siberia to tundra climate in the polar north; winters vary from cool along Black Sea coast to frigid in Siberia; summers vary from warm in the steppes to cool along Arctic coast

  5. Russian energy: facts and figures(2012 est.) • Electricity - production: 1.064 trillion kWh 4 • Electricity - exports: 19.14 billion kWh 8 • Electricity - installed generating capacity: 223.1 million kW 4 • Electricity - from nuclear fuels: 17.2% of total installed capacity 14 • Electricity - from RES: 0,5% of total installed capacity 179 • Crude oil - production: 10.37 million bbl/day 1 • Crude oil - exports: 4.69 million bbl/day 2 • Natural gas - production: 653 billion cu m 1 • Natural gas - exports: 200.1 billion cu m 1 • CO2 emissions from consumption of energy: 1.634 bln. Mt 4

  6. Data collection – how we collected and our sources • Roshydromet • Federal State Statistics Service • ERI RAS/REA • EBRD • European Commission • UNDP • UNEP • UNFCCC • World Bank • IFC • FAO • IEA • WWF

  7. Developing BAU scenario • Focus on energy efficiency and less on Renewable Energy Sources • Remove all remaining cross‐subsidies from electricity pricing • Electricity tariffs for households will remain regulated • Increasing nuclear energy to 25% of energy production

  8. Developing OPT scenario • Reduce energy intensity in 2020 by 40% of 2007 level • Target to double GDP in ten years • Goal to add at least 20000 MW of new generating capacity • Cooperation bonds between EU and Russia especially in the area of energy • Environmental issues

  9. Developing PES scenario • Slower implementation of innovations, • Low GDP growth rate, • Severe climate change, • Bad demography • Reflect augmented set of Governmental policies, which implemented slower with worse results.

  10. Results of the 3 scenarios according to LEAP

  11. AMS assessment of the policy mixtures

  12. Best policy mixture • For criterion of environmental performance, OPT offers better grade of all scenarios; • This could be interpreted as lack of regulation (driven, perhaps, by lack of motivation) of regulatory bodies to decrease environmental impact of Russian economy. • There is definitely great leeway for improving environmental performance of the economy through implementation of new policies, many of which are currently discussed.

  13. Thank you for your attention and cooperation!
