IAEA 3
1. SED: PESS mandate and implementation
Capacity building for sustainable energy development –SED:
comprehensive energy system, economic, environmental analyses to assist Member States (MSs) in:
- decision making for SED by considering all aspects and criteria
- understanding environmental and climate change issues related to energy production and use
- assessing the role of nuclear power in SEDImplementation tools and mechanisms: models, training and technical advice, networks andpartnerships, data banks, 3E analyses, global analyses
and UN activities
IAEA 4
1. SED: Energy-economy-environment (3E)
Sustainable energy development: Key component of SDMulti-agency report on Indicators for SEDwith UN DESA: MS applications; country initiatives
Main criteria of SED – 3 dimensions:Social: accessibility, affordability, equity, safetyEconomic: overall productivity, energy system efficiency,
end-use efficiency, reserve and resource availability, supply security, energy system diversity, end-use pricing
Environmental: atmospheric emission ratios (GHGs, ADSs, CxHx), water pollution ratios (power plant heat, oil, mines), solid waste ratios (ash, radioactive waste)
IAEA
2. IAEA assistance to interested MSs
Energy system planning for a national energy strategy includes and IAEA tools cover:
Energy demand by economic sector and fuelDemand side managementEnergy supply by fuel, source of fuel, production and conversion technology Economics, including financeEnvironmental impact analyses & externalitiesSocial acceptanceLife cycle analysis (CO2)Infrastructure analysis

3. International cooperation: UN Energy
About 15 UN organizations:- joint programme
- subsets working on projects- presentations and side events at UN CSD, UN FCCC, …
Here an example: Ghana
IAEAInternational Atomic Energy Agency
A UN-ENERGY Demonstration Study
conducted by• Department of Economic and
Social Affairs (DESA)• Food and Agriculture
Organization (FAO)• International Atomic Energy
Agency (IAEA)• United Nations Environment
Programme (UNEP)• United Nations Industrial
Development Organization (UNIDO)
with assistance form the Ghana Energy Commission
IAEA 14
3. Ghana: Objectives of the study
•Implement a case study on the implementation of the WSSD JPOI recommendation
Increasing the share of renewables in the energy mix
•Test the effectiveness of different policy options
•Advance thinking in energy systems
•Build capacity
•Foster UN-Energy cooperation
IAEA 15
3. Ghana: Key energy issues
Three key issues will shape the future of Ghana’s energy sector:
1.unavailability or inaccessibility of modern energy sources to a large fraction of the population,
2.non-affordability of commercial fuels, and
3.high energy import dependence
IAEA 16
3. Ghana: Approach
•Energy system analysisDetailed demand analysis distinguishing rural and urban areas (MAED)Detailed energy supply analysis (MESSAGE) Assessment of policy options
•Data input provided by Ghana Energy Commission, DESA, FAO, IAEA, UNEP and UNIDO
Modeling and analysis support by IAEA

3. Ghana: Electricity generation: Base case – least-cost supply
IAEA 18
3. Ghana: Policies and measures to promote renewable energy sources
• Portfolio Standard/Renewable Energy Quota (REQ) ScenarioA minimum share of renewable energy is imposed on electric utilities, rising from 2% in 2010 to 20% in 2030• Public Benefit Fund (PBF) ScenariosFund is created through levy on electricity transmission: US$1 per MWh to cover up to one-third of investments in renewable energy technologies • Clean Developmt Mechanism (CDM) ScenarioA price of US$15/tonne of CO2 avoided assumed
IAEA 19
3. Ghana: Impacts of different policies
IAEA 20
3. Ghana: Investment & Operating costs –alternative policies
IAEA 21
3. Ghana: Main insights
Current econ conditions (BL): role for renewables limited Supporting polices needed to promote market penetration; Ghana’s energy policy already includes diversification based on renewables: micro hydro, wind, and solar PV;Additional policy measures can help increase contribution of renewables but effectiveness and economic costs differ; Soft-measures (Public Benefit Fund and CDM): economic advantages: investments partly financed by internally generated funds or earnings from CO2 credits; Hard measures (Portfolio Standard/Renewable Energy Quota): more effective, but involve inefficiencies and higher costs;Demonstrated: suitability of IAEA’s energy models for analyzing the role of various energy technologies and for evaluating various policy measures

4. Main messages
IAEA: not only- atomic: SED, 3E analysis, national energy
planning – full set of resources and technologies- energy: nuclear applications in many areas –
