and closely linked Energy, water, land & climate are critical to SDGs Energy (2021) 8.6% of global population without access to electricity 29% without access to clean fuels and technology Water (2020) 26% without safe drinking water 46% without safe sanitation Land / agriculture (2021) 770 million people undernourished (2021) 2.3 billion facing moderate or severe food insecurity Climate (2021) Emissions back at record levels after the pandemic Record post-industrial average temperature; increasing frequency and severity of extreme climate events Source: SDG Global Database, https://unstats.un.org/sdgs/dataportal Agriculture and energy account for 90% of freshwater withdrawals Water supply/treatment consumes ~4% of electricity (up to 10% in some regions) Crop production consumes 4 5% of final energy (entire food supply chain up to 30%) Bioenergy: ~15% of global maize and oil seed output for biofuels in recent years Sustainable resource planning must account for linkages between different resource systems Energy, agriculture and land use contribute >90% of GHG emissions PESS.Contact-Point@iaea.org
IAEA assist Member States in reinforcing national capabilities to conduct energy system analysis, so that countries can assess options and develop their own sustainable energy strategies, i.e. support decision and policy making strengthen the provision of support to Member States in integrating the SDGs through national and regional energy studies PESS.Contact-Point@iaea.org
IAEAs Capacity Building Program for Integrated Energy Planning* * accounting for linkages with other resource systems (water, land, climate) Independent program and analytical tools Up to date methodologies Driven by Member States Aimed at national experts/teams Delivered via multiple channels Distance learning Field trainings Expert missions Advanced trainings INTERNATIONAL ORGANISATIONS PUBLIC REGULATORY AGENCIES Teacher trainings Ongoing support External experts ADMINISTRATION Fellowships Across complementary scales ENERGY SECTOR & CONSULTANTS ACADEMIC GENERAL PUBLIC PESS.Contact-Point@iaea.org LOCAL NATIONAL REGIONAL INTERREGIONAL
Example case study: climate, land, energy and water strategies in the City of Cape Town CLEW Climate, Land, Supported under IAEA Coordinated Research Project Energy and Water Nexus Facing potential water shortages owing to increasing demand and climate change Energy water synergies & trade-offs Simulated dam storage levels Energy water synergies and trade-offs across management options Source: Ahjum, F., Hughes, A., Fant, C., Climate, Land, Energy and Water Strategies in the City of Cape Town, Energy Research Centre, University of Cape Town, Cape Town (2015).
At the core of the IAEAs Capacity Building Cooperation Collaborations Partnerships Exchange of information Provision of tools Joint training activities Complementary in-country support Events participation PESS.Contact-Point@iaea.org
Example: IRENAIAEA partnership for development of a Continental Power System Masterplan (CMP) for Africa In 2018/2019, African Ministers, through the AU Specialised Technical Committee, directed the African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD) to lead development of a CMP "blueprint" to solve Africa s energy challenge IAEA and IRENA selected by AUDA-NEPAD to provide modelling tools, support and training, along with advice, expertise and data PESS.Contact-Point@iaea.org
Looking ahead:supporting the development of integrated energy plans considering water, land and climatein Latin America and the Caribbean, 2024 2027 CLEW Climate, Land, Energy and Water Nexus pre-2022 Regional Project: Supporting the Preparation of Sustainable Energy Development Plans at a Regional Level 15 LAC countries, 250 experts of the MSs national teams trained in IAEA s Energy Planning tools 2024 Project kick-off and energy-water- land-climate scoping workshop Sub-regional workshops to present national studies on energy, climate, land & water: Mesoamerica & Caribbean South America & Andean region 2026 Regional trainings water-energy- climate modelling: Mesoamerica & Caribbean South America & Andean region Regional trainings on land use- energy-climate modelling: Mesoamerica & Caribbean South America & Andean region Final workshop and coordination meeting Regional workshops on energy modelling Mesoamerica & Caribbean South America & Andean region Regional workshop to present integrated methodology and example case study National projects: Nicaragua, Guatemala, Saint Lucia Expected results 2023: National capacities strengthened for developing energy policies and sustainable energy action plans 2022-23 2027 2025 PESS.Contact-Point@iaea.org
