Meeting the 1.5°C Paris Agreement goal • 45% reduction in emissions by 2030 required to meet 1.5 ° C (c/w 2010 levels) • Net zero by 2050 6
A Climate Emergency Action Plan for North Tyneside Stages Key questions • What existing strategies/policies are in place? Scoping 1 Stakeholder Engagement • What is the breakdown of the current Carbon Baseline 2 emissions and where the hotspots? • Carbon budgets How much carbon has North Tyneside got 3 left to emit? • What are the different pathways that can Decarbonisation Pathways 4 be deployed to achieve the target? • What are the actions that will be taken to Action plan 5 a achieve the target and how? • How to effectively monitor the progress 6 Monitoring and Evaluation made against the actions and the carbon neutral target? 7

4 Heat: challenges and opportunities 23
Heat Decarbonisation: Technology options A 2016 Committee for Climate Change (CCC) report summarised the heat decarbonisation options as: New Build New-build energy efficiency & low carbon heat All green boxes are considered “low regret” Full Electrification Heat pumps in off-gas properties with a Existing off gas routes by the CCC for grid properties supplementary role for biomass boilers the immediate Hybrid heat pumps: decarbonisation of heat. Low-carbon heat networks gas & HP Efficiency Conversion of gas Biomethane to gas improvement Existing grid to hydrogen At the time, this in existing buildings on area wasn’t well buildings Hybrid heat pumps: Low-carbon heat solutions for on-gas grid the gas grid defined properties not on heat networks hydrogen & HP 24
Technologies key to decarbonising heat Hydrogen Grid conversion Low-Carbon Heat Networks Heat Pumps & Energy Hybrid Heat Efficiency Pumps H O T E L • The pathway to the decarbonisation of heat is uncertain • Solutions are likely to be place-based • No one-size-fits-all technology 25
5 Power: challenges and opportunities 26
Electricity system Historically based on large centralised thermal power generators feeding consumers through transmission networks (National Grid) and distribution networks (e.g. Northern Powergrid) Requirement to decarbonise power generation increases amount of non-dispatchable capacity e.g. wind and solar, low carbon nuclear, and a reduced fraction of dispatchable thermal e.g. coal and gas Different generation technologies have different characteristics: • Base load • Dispatchable • Non-dispatchable 27
