2010> assumes cautious implementation of recently announced
commitments & plans, even if yet to be formally adopted > provides benchmark to assess achievements &
limitations of recent developments in climate & energy policy
Current Policies Scenario takes into consideration only those policies that had been formally adopted by mid-2010> equivalent to the Reference Scenario of past Outlooks
The 450 Scenario sets out an energy pathway consistent with the goal of limiting increase in average temperature to 2OC

The 450 Scenario:The 450 Scenario: A A roadmap from 3.5 roadmap from 3.5C to 2C to 2C C
The 450 Scenario sets out an energy pathway consistent with limiting the increase in temperature to 2C
Assumes vigorous implementation of Copenhagen Accord pledges to 2020 & much stronger action thereafter
The failure of the Copenhagen Accord pledges: > As many lack transparency, there is 3.9 Gt of
uncertainty over the level of abatement pledged to 2020
> As many lack ambition, the cost of achieving the 2 C goal has increased by $1 trillion in 2010-2030 compared with WEO-2009

WEO 2010 WEO 2010 Implications for ChinaImplications for China
China's role in global energy is set to expand further & its policies will have major implications for global energy trends & prospects for limiting climate change
A greater role for gas in China could contribute greatly to reducing CO2 emissions
China's role as leader in manufacturing, deploying—and increasingly in developing—low-carbon technologies can drive down costs, to the benefits of all countries
Growing interconnectedness & China's increasing weight in the energy market links its energy security to global energy security
