Description:
Figure TS.15 legend: RECC-LED data include only space heating and cooling and water heating in residential buildings (a) Global resolution, and (b) for nine world regions. Emissions are decomposed using the equation "CO2 = Pop ×(m2/Pop) ×( EJ/m2) × (MtCO2/EJ) = Pop × Sufficiency × Efficiency × Renewable" which shows changes in driver variables of population, sufficiency (floor area per capita), efficiency (final energy per floor area), and renewables (GHG emissions per final energy). ‘Renewables’ is a summary term describing changes in GHG intensity of energy supply. Emission projections to 2050, and differences between scenarios in 2050, demonstrate mitigation potentials from the dimensions of the SER framework realised in each model scenario. In most regions, historical improvements in efficiency have been approximately matched by growth in floor area per capita. Implementing sufficiency measures that limit growth in floor area per capita, particularly in developed regions, reduces the dependence of climate mitigation on technological solutions. {Figure 9.5, Box 9.2}

Provenance
Source:
Based on data from IEA for population, CO2 emissions, final energy demand, floor
area for residential buildings for the period 1990-2019 and for the period
2020-2050, data based on IEA scenarios (current policy (2019), sustainable
development (2020) and net zero emissions (2021)) and IMAGE scenarios (Baseline
SSP2-RCP2.6 and Lifestyle and renewable) and RECC (resource efficiency and
climate change) scenarios (SSP2 baseline and LED/2°C policy) Data processing or
treatment: Please provide a text based description of any data pre-processing or
transformations undertaken to the input or source data in order to produce the
figure in the report. This is important if the traceable dataset or numbers are
different from those appearing on the figure. The reader should be able to
understand how we arrived to the final data appearing on the SPM figure from
reading this field, and should be able to replicate the steps. Therefore, the
level of details presented here should be enabling such replication. To allow
for cross scenario analysis, data have been grouped per regions different from
those provided by scenario owners. Units have also been harmonised between
different scenarios. CO2 emissions have been decomposed in both the operation
and the construction phase based on changes in driver variables of i)
population, ii) sufficiency (floor area per capita in the operation phase and in
the case of embodied emissions floor area of new constructions only was
considered), iii) efficiency (final energy per floor area in the operation phase
and in the case of embodied emissions material efficiency was considered), and
iv) renewables (GHG emissions per final energy). ‘Renewables’ is a summary term
describing changes in GHG intensity of energy supply. Emission projections to
2050, and differences between scenarios in 2050, demonstrate mitigation
potentials from the three dimensions of the Sufficiency, Efficiency, Renewable
(SER) framework. The decomposition equation used in the operation phase is
included in page 20 and the one related to embodied emissions is included in
page 38 of Chapter 9
