However, the national NDC target has been requested to be raised and is under review to reset the target. The industrial sector accounts for 70% of national emissions, but in Suwon, the non-industrial sector accounts for more than 80%. Therefore, it is inappropriate to evaluate target intensity through direct comparison with national NDCs. Our reduction target corresponds to a higher level than the reduction target for the non-industrial part of the national reduction scenario. In addition, considering that Suwon's population has increased by more than 17% compared to 2005, the actual reduction is even higher. | 1221095 | 2020 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[126.805, 37.17]} | 2021-10-04T09:30:14.243 | ||||

No official decision has been made on how Park City will meet its 2030 goal if the amount of carbon released is greater that the city's sequestration potential, but the option of a local carbon offsetting mechanism is being explored.This goal was moved up from 2032 to 2030 in November 2018 to reflect the latest IPCC report and the potential 2030 Olympics in Salt Lake City/Park City.No progress has been reported, because a second city-wide inventory has not been completed since the adoption of this goal.This target is more ambitious that the United States' NDC. | 8580 | 2020 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-111.498, 40.6461]} | 2021-10-04T09:30:14.243 | |||||||

A scenario development approach was adopted: A ‘“Business-as-Usual’” scenario and two “pathways” of ambitious action under optimistic (“Green Economy”) and pessimistic (“Ambition under Limited Mandate and Opportunity”) conditions were modelled. The target reported here is informed by these two scenarios. The emissions modelling for the various scenarios also builds on the previous energy and emissions modelling carried out by the City for the Energy2040 Goal adopted by Council in 2015.Alignment with national targets: The current national NDC target entails a stable lower limit and a slightly rising upper limit to 2030. The NDC is however under review and the draft update has emissions peaking in 2025. When this draft NDC is approved the City of Cape Town target will be in-line with the new national ambition. South Africa has coal intensive grid power and so the electricity supply sector carries the greatest burden of the target. Sector shares are as follows:Electricity Supply: 1MT CO2e requiring 400 MW of new utility scale renewable electricity supply and annual small scale embedded generation of 300 GWh.Buildings: 0.25 MT energy efficiency retrofits. Building SSEG in Electricity aboveWaste: 0.5 MT from diversion of organics from landfill, flaring and biogas to powerTransport: 0.25 MT from rehabilitation of the rail system, expansion of the high quality bus system, reduction of single occupancy vehicle use, vehicle efficiency improvement and moderate electrification.The target took modelling using C40’s Pathways Tool into consideration but also the uncertainties of the local political economy and the as yet new and untested legislative framework that could allow South African cities to procure their own renewable electricity. These uncertainties have the potential to delay the already long lead time attendant to developing a procurement system for IPP power by the CCT distribution utility. | 4423834 | 2018 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[18.4239, -33.9253]} | 2021-10-04T09:30:14.243 | ||||||
