scope for widespread switching to carbon-free fuels. As a result, emissions<br />

reductions result primarily from reduced consumption, stemming from<br />

increased efficiency, increased use of less carbon-intensive fuels or switching<br />

between modes of transport. Emissions from industry are 0.9 Gt lower in<br />

2030, equal to 14% of the total reduction in emissions compared with the<br />

Reference Scenario. Avoided emissions from the residential and the services<br />

sectors account for the remainder.<br />
