IPCC WGIII Fourth Assessment Report, Second Order Draft
efficiency. Should the reference here be to "expansion and supply
and renewal of low-carbon energy supply and energy efficient
technologies" Rather than just "energy supply"? If energy
efficiency is not included in the 16 trillion estimate we suggest a
new additional sentence about this: "Improved energy efficiency
will have to play a key role for all regions and timescales."
Rationale: Figure SPM4 shows that energy conservation and
efficiency has a key role.

6 A 7 2 7 4 How is this investment figure derived. It is not obvious if this is
total investment required to meet new demand and replace depleted
stock. Is this a global figure?

6 A 7 2 7 5 As currently drafted this sentence is confusing suggest redrafting to
make the point clearer.

6 A 7 2 7 4 "Therefore the use of the projected investment……low carbon
technologies (high confidence)". This statement is unclear. Firstly,
the term “the use of” is not clear. Secondly, is this the projection of
investment in the global energy system till 2030 or is it the
minimum investment needed (i.e. critical) for the low carbon
technologies have to penetrate. If it is the former, there is no
mention of what climate stabilization level is assumed. In case if
this statement is retained with any modification, clarification of the
above as well as the following is needed: i) how much of this
penetration is expected in developing countries? ii) what policies
and measures are assumed for transfer of the technology and the
payment of full incremental cost to developing countries?

there is no
guarantee that it
would be used
for low-carbon
technologies.
Nevertheless,
we refer to this
issue in other

paragraph 6.
