European Union – Insufficient
www.climateactiontracker.org
NDC insufficient: leading to 2-3°C warming by 2100, if all countries were to follow the EU’s approach. Policies in line with NDC but much stronger emissions
reductions needed to achieve long-term target

How to increase the ambition of EU´s NDC and put policies on track to long-term target?

EU – Emissions intensity of electricity generation
www.climateactiontracker.org
-36% reduction below 1990 and -21% below 2000
in 2014
-36% reduction below 2014 in 2030

EU – coal share
www.climateactiontracker.org
-38%decrease 1990- 2014

EU – coal share member states
www.climateactiontracker.org
For some members states (e.g. Germany), coal still represents a third of their energy mix.

EU – coal power generation
25% of gross electricity generation
17% of total GHG
emissions
760Mt CO2 yearly
Coal share is much higher in electricity mix, with Germany and Poland concentrating 50% of the installed capacity.
293 coal power plants,, with combined installed
capacity of 153 GW.

EU – coal phase-out plans
Coal needs to be phased out by 2030 in the EU to be consistent with the Paris Agreement.
Many member states are already implementing coal phase-out by this year and civil society is mobilizing to increase ambition.

Conclusions
www.climateactiontracker.org
• NDC insufficient: leading to 2-3°C warming by 2100, if all countries were to follow the EU’s approach
• How to enhance the level of ambition of the EU NDC?
o Coal needs to be phased out by 2030
o Renewables deployment
o Energy sector fully decarbonised by 2050
o Net zero emissions in the second half of the century

EU – coal phase-out
www.climateactiontracker.org
To be in line with the Paris Agreement the EU would need to phase-out coal by 2030.
