The Way Forward for Pakistan

💡Capacity building
📲Technology & knowledge transfer
🗣️cross-country partnerships
🫂 Leveraging existing platforms
📜update strategies to account for evolving techs.
📑long-term strategy for CCUS
💵Exploring financing models
👥De-risking finance

Climate Justice concerns over CCUS/CDR

🏭Extending the life of polluting industries
⏰Enabling the BAU Practices
👥Siting of CCUS/CDR projects in over-burdened communities.
🧿Offsetting emissions instead of mitigating.

The industrial sector (especially hard to abate sectors) also pose significant opportunities; however, the current economic turmoil has limited the fiscal mobility of this sector to finance this transition.

[SDPI @SDPIPakistan]

While power sector of Pakistan does provide opportunities, high technology cost of #CCS is expected to limit it at least over the short-term.

Still, Pakistan has a young #coal fleet and CCS can be applied to both generation and mining regions operations, particularly in Thar.

[SDPI @SDPIPakistan]

While the #NDCs of Pakistan define both adaptation and mitigation measures, there are no defined plans for carbon capture or storage in either, medium-, or long-term.

Further, the #NDCs do not provide a well-defined plan for emission reductions in the Industrial sector.

Overview of Pakistan’s emission profile in 2021.

🎑AFOLU = 236.9 Mt
⚡️Energy = 232.6 Mt
🏭IPPU = 28.3 Mt
❎Waste = 26.9 Mt

[SDPI @SDPIPakistan]

While #Pakistan does not have a #netzero target, it is in the process of developing the LT-LEDs.

Based on the country’s updated #NDCs, it is aiming to reduce 50% of its projected emissions based on international financing and 15% using its own resources.

[SDPI @SDPIPakistan]

The role of Carbon removal is however extremely important in all #IPCC pathways for achieving #ParisAgreement's 1.5-degree target.
Existing power and industrial facilities, if left #unabated will emit 600 billion tons of carbon over the next 50 years.

[SDPI @SDPIPakistan]

Against #Netzero demand of annual reduction of 1.2 GtCO2 by 2050 through #CCUS, the progress at current pace would enable only 1/3rd of the net-zero requirements.
However, the industry is getting momentum in recent years, with around 500 projects in development.
