Executive Summary

Energy and emissions continue to rise, although more slowly than population growth, driven largely by the transportation sector. Emissions from buildings fell during the period.

The rise in emissions has occurred largely in the unincorporated areas. Overall, incorporated areas saw a slight reduction in emissions.

Top 3 Policies

The Sunshine Coast Community Energy and Emissions Plan (CEEP) was completed in 2009. Energy and greenhouse gas inventories from that plan have been updated to incorporate 2010 data and adjust the 2007 baseline to be consistent with the Province’s Community Energy & Emissions Inventory methodology. Emissions continue to rise, but slower than population growth. The CIMS energy and emissions model developed by Navius Research has been used to predict the reduction impact of various policy measures. The model predicts that the CEEP’s “Deep Green” reduction target of 33% by 2031 can be achieved through implementation of the top reduction policies.

1. Introduction

In 2009 the SCRD, in partnership with Gibsons, Sechelt and Sechelt Indian Government District, undertook a Community Energy & Emissions Plan (CEEP)1. In this plan an energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) inventory was created, reduction targets established, and reduction actions identified. The reduction targets were adopted by the SCRD and member municipalities as required by Provincial legislation. Since the CEEP was completed, there have been some changes to the way in which the Province calculates community emissions through the Community Energy & Emissions Inventory (CEEI) initiative. The Province has also released draft CEEI reports for 2010, and 2012 reports are expected to be available in 2014. Meanwhile, the SCRD has been involved in a pilot project to develop a community emissions modelling tool (CIMS) with the Regional District of Nanaimo and Navius Research. As a result of these activities, this update seeks to:

• Update the 2007 inventory to be consistent with current CEEI methodology.

• Provide a 2010 inventory, based on the CEEI reports.

• Provide an overview of changes in emissions since 2007.

• Use the modelling tool to develop a revised Business As Usual baseline. • Use the modelling tool to estimate the impact of potential policy actions.

As the CEEP was not completed until 2010 and implementation of CEEP initiatives did not begin until 2011, the energy and emissions impacts of those initiatives are not captured in this review. Future CEEI reports will provide a better indication of the impacts of CEEP initiatives.

2. Energy & Emissions Update

2.1 Background

At the time of the CEEP the Province was starting to develop the Community Energy & Emissions Initiative (CEEI), with the goal of providing all BC local governments with a community energy and GHG inventory. The SCRD CEEP used initial draft 2007 CEEI reports as the basis for the inventory. As these reports were not complete, some changes were made in developing the inventories. These included:

• Extrapolating data for the Sechelt Indian Government District from the District of Sechelt.

• Correcting errors caused by inaccurate postal code boundaries for the Town of Gibsons. • Incorporating estimates of wood, heating oil, and propane use.

• Incorporating large emitters emissions from Howe Sound Pulp & Paper.

• Incorporating agricultural emissions. CEEI later released updated 2007 reports which resolved the postal code errors, incorporated estimates of residential wood, heating oil, and propane and included agricultural emissions. The Province also created Core and Memo sections within the report. Core items are those sectors with the best quality data and where local governments exert more influence, and is intended to provide a more relevant inventory. Memo items are sectors over which local government has limited control or for which the data is limited. This includes large industrial buildings, land-use change, and agriculture. CEEI has “continuous improvement” as a stated goal, meaning they attempt to improve calculation methodologies over time. In order to allow for consistent progress measurement, any methodological changes are also incorporated into the 2007 baseline reports, which are then re-released. In 2012 CEEI released 2010 reports along with updated 2007 reports. These have improved methodologies for calculation of transportation and solid waste emissions. However, these latest reports had some errors in the data which the Province is working to correct. To provide this update, we have obtained the latest datasets from CEEI. These are still considered draft and have not been published. Although some known errors remain in this data, they have been corrected for this report and any further changes should be minor.

2.2 Update Methodology

The 2007 and 2010 inventories are generated primarily from CEEI data. Published CEEI reports are available on the Province’s website2 as well as a complete methodology for how the CEEI reports are generated3. As explained above, the data used was obtained directly from the Province due to errors in the published reports. Further adjustments were made to fix known errors that have not yet been corrected by CEEI (primarily the correction of emissions factors). Two further changes have been made that go beyond the CEEI methodology:

• SIGD data is not provided in the CEEI reports, as it is combined together with Sechelt. The Sechelt CEEI data was pro-rated between Sechelt and SIGD on a per capita basis.

• Large industrial electricity and natural gas is withheld by CEEI due to privacy concerns. However, total emissions for Howe Sound Pulp & Paper can be obtained from the federal

government’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reporting Program4. These have been included in the inventory as a Memo Item under Large Emitters.

2.3 Updated Inventory

The updated inventories are split into Core and Memo items, consistent with CEEI. Core emissions provide the most relevant comparisons for local governments. Energy and emissions have continued to rise between 2007 to 2010. For 2007, Core emissions in the SCRD were 167,300 tonnes CO2e while in 2010 they were170,200 tonnes, an increase of 1.7%. Energy consumption increased from 3505 TJ to 3584 TJ, an increase of 2.3%. Population growth during this time was 4.9%, therefore per capita emissions have declined slightly. Caution should be used in drawing conclusions from the 2007 and 2010 inventories. Three years is a relatively short time to see the impact of new policies, technologies, or changing attitudes. Comparisons are further complicated by weather (2010 was 0.8°C warmer than 2007), the global economic turndown which began in 2008, and fluctuating fuel prices.

The mass of Solid Waste deposited in the landfill has declined significantly, but emissions continue to rise due to waste already in the landfill.

Figure 6

Energy and emissions in Gibsons and the SIGD decreased slightly from 2007 to 2010, while emissions from Sechelt were almost unchanged. Emissions in the unincorporated areas accounted for most of the rise in emissions overall.

Figure 7

CEEI did not update memo items for 2010. Therefore there is no change to values for large industrial buildings, land-use change, or agriculture. The CEEP and this update include large emitters (Howe Sound Pulp & Paper), whose emissions increased from 112,400 tonnes in 2007 to 128,100 tonnes in 2010, an increase of 14%. Complete inventories can be found in the Appendix.

2.4 Factors Impacting Emissions Between 2007 and 2010

As mentioned above, many factors come into play in whether emissions increase or decrease between years. However, some known factors as well as possible reasons for changes in emissions between 2007 and 2010 are outlined below. Table 1: Factors Impacting Emissions

Sector Change 2007 - 2010 Factors

Buildings 3.1% decrease in energy 4.1% decrease in emissions

• 2010 was 0.8°C warmer than 2007, reducing heating energy.

• Emissions decreased by more than energy in part because natural gas, the primary heating fuel, has a higher emissions factor than electricity. As well, the emissions factor for heating oil decreased due to legislation requiring renewable fuel content.

• The federal EcoEnergy and BC LiveSmart programs for houses were active during the period.

• There was a slowdown in new home construction.

• New efficiency requirements for equipment and in the building code were introduced, although the impact will be mostly felt in future years.

Transportation 9.0% increase in energy 3.9% increase in emissions

• Increasing transportation energy consumption above that of population growth has been an ongoing trend for many years, largely due to more people purchasing trucks and SUVs.

• The impact of higher efficiency vehicles will take several years before the market share is large enough to have a significant impact.

• Emissions increased by less than energy as the emissions factor for gasoline and diesel decreased due to legislation requiring renewable fuel content.

Solid Waste 7.8% decrease in mass 4.0% increase in emissions

• Waste disposal is decreasing throughout the province due to increased recycling and greater awareness.

• Emissions continue to increase in spite of the mass reduction as emissions are a result of decaying organic waste deposited in earlier years. The impact of reduced waste disposal will be seen in future years.

2.5 Changes from CEEP Inventory

There are a number of differences between the inventory completed as part of the CEEP and this updated inventory. Total emissions for 2007 have changed in the inventory from 354,000 tonnes to 320,000 tonnes. There are various reasons for this, including:

• Changes to the way BC Hydro assigns industrial buildings to sectors. Small and medium industrial is now included as part of commercial. Previously these were included in large industrial and withheld due to privacy concerns.

Page 11: Community Energy and Emissions Inventory Update · Community Energy and Emissions Inventory Update 3 government’s Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reporting Program 4.These have been included

Community Energy and Emissions Inventory Update

• Removal of commercial propane and heating oil estimates due to the difficulty of obtaining this data.

• Improved transportation methodology, including new vehicle kilometers travelled (VKT) and efficiency data, more accurate assignment of vehicles to jurisdictions, and revised vehicle classification.

• Revised methodology for calculating solid waste emissions. • Revised estimates of deforestation impacts due to settlement and agriculture.

• Removal of manure management and agricultural soils from emissions calculations for agriculture.

• Updating of emissions factors.

2.6 Community vs Corporate Emissions

There is sometimes confusion between community and corporate emissions. Corporate emissions refer only to those emissions that result directly from local government operations, such as operation of municipal buildings, vehicle fleets, and solid waste produced by the local government. Community emissions include all emissions occurring within the local government boundary (which includes corporate emissions). Community emissions are usually much larger than corporate emissions as there are many more buildings and vehicles in the community than are operated by local governments.

3. Scenario Analysis

3.1 Model Description

CIMS was developed by Navius Research and M.K. Jaccard and Associates Inc. to provide a tool for local governments to assess the impacts of policies on future energy consumption and emissions. Navius provides the following overview:

“The CIMS model provides rigorous analyses of how policy will impact future energy consumption, air emissions, capital costs, operating costs and energy costs in a given region. It is a detailed representation of technologies and infrastructure (capital stock) in all sectors of the economy from the present to 2050. The capital stock in the model consumes and produces energy to provide goods and services ranging from transportation to space heating to industrial output such as steel or paper. CIMS simulates capital stock turnover through time as stock is acquired, used, retrofitted, and eventually retired. The acquisition of new stock simulates realistic consumer and firm behaviour rather than assuming technology choices are made to minimize long-term financial costs. Energy supply and demand are held in equilibrium to account for the production of all energy consumed in the model and to adjust energy prices as the cost of energy production changes. It includes a representation of macro-economic feedbacks, such that demand for energy intensive goods and services adjusts to reflect changing market and policy conditions.

Using external forecasts of baseline energy prices and economic growth, CIMS produces a reference forecast of the capital stock used to provide goods and service. Consequently, it forecasts the resulting greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption. Alternative scenarios that include different market and policy conditions demonstrate their impact on energy consumption, air emissions, and financial costs relative to this reference forecast. CIMS has been applied at the municipal level and to all Canadian provinces and territories, to the United States, to China and some global regions.”

3.2 Assumptions

CIMS incorporates a number of assumptions for factors such as population growth, fuel prices, type and size of dwellings, vehicle kilometres travelled, and solid waste produced. Most of these are specific to the Sunshine Coast and are taken from federal or provincial data sources. CIMS allows the user to adjust some of these assumptions. After reviewing the default assumptions, all were considered to be appropriate (or no better data was available) with the exception of precipitation at the landfill, which was revised to 1001-2000 mm. The assumptions can be found in the Appendix.

3.3 Business As Usual Forecast

CIMS provides a reference case, which is a Business As Usual (BAU) forecast. The BAU forecast assumes no specific policy actions related to energy or climate change. The BAU increase is usually less than the rate of population growth, due to natural changes in building and vehicle stock, fuel shares, technology advances, and accumulated solid waste. Based on the CIMS forecast, emissions will increase by 0.8% a year compared to 1.5% population growth. This will result in Core emissions of 190,000 tonnes in 2030 and 233,000 tonnes in 2050. This corresponds to a 12% increase by 2030 and a 37% increase by 2050.

The emission reduction target adopted by local governments on the Sunshine Coast, based on the CEEP, is 7% by 2031. The CEEP also provides a “deep green” reduction target of 33% by 2031, although this has not been adopted. The BAU case and these two reduction targets (extrapolated to 2050) are shown in the figure below.

Figure 9

3.4 CIMS Policy Scenarios Analysed

CIMS allows for a number of different policies to be analysed. These are broken down by sector. Some policies are the prerogative of the provincial or federal governments and beyond the control of local governments.

3.4.1 Federal and Provincial Government Policy

While local government can lobby federal and provincial government, these policies reside principally with other levels of government and are beyond the direct control of local governments. Therefore the first scenario analysed was a Federal and Provincial Government Policy (FPGP) scenario, which incorporates known energy and climate policies from the federal or provincial governments. Often the long term continuity of these policies is not known, and some assumptions have been made based on known and anticipated policy changes already underway in BC and in Canada. The policies and rationale for the FPGP scenario are outlined in the table below:

3.4.2 Local Government Policies

All the remaining policies under local government control were analysed, regardless of the likelihood that they would be introduced on the Sunshine Coast. This provides insight into their relative impacts providing context for policy choices that support the SCRD reaching its CEEP 2031 community emissions targets. The policies were run with the FPGP scenario in place. In some cases there was more than one policy option to choose from, and an assumption was made about the one most likely to be implemented. In the case of community density both options were analysed, as density has such a large impact on emissions. Each policy was analysed separately in order to see the impact. The policy areas and the policy/standard selected for each area are outlined below.

3.5 Results

The Federal and Provincial Government Policy scenario results in GHG emissions of 159,000 tonnes in 2050. This is a 32% reduction from the BAU case and a 6% reduction from 2007. Emissions actually drop to 147,000 tonnes in 2030 but then begin to increase again. This is because the model assumes there will be smaller efficiency gains over time, which are offset by population increases. The Federal FPGP scenario alone achieves the adopted reduction target of 7% by 2031. However, it does not maintain those reductions to 2050.

The local government policies result in emissions reductions ranging from 26.4 tonnes (17%) to an increase of 1.7 tonnes (1% increase)5. The policies with the greatest impact are increasing community density (both moderate and aggressive) and solid waste management (organics separation and landfill gas collection). The remaining policies have relatively little impact. Table 4: Emissions Reductions by Policy

5 Some policies result in increased energy and emissions due to a switch in fuels from electric heating to

wood. Although wood is a fairly low emissions fuel, it has higher emissions than electricity and lower combustion efficiency.

Figure 10

Policies often have some interaction between them, potentially impacting the emissions reductions. An example is organics separation, which will reduce the amount of landfill gas generated and therefore the reductions achieved by landfill gas collection. Because of this the reductions cannot be summed to determine the overall impact. Two additional policy scenarios have been run to assess overall reductions. The first incorporates all the policies (except moderate density, which is inherent in aggressive density). The second includes the policies that are most effective at reducing emissions - aggressive community density, organics collection, and landfill gas collection (referenced as “Top 3”). All policies combined result in emissions reductions of 32 tonnes by 2030 and 51 tonnes by 2050. When combined with FPGP this is a reduction from 2007 of 32% by 2030 and 36% by 2050, close to achieving the 2031 Deep Green target, although reductions taper off by 2050. The Top 3 policies actually achieve slightly better results than all the policies combined. This is because some policies actually increase emissions. The Top 3 policies result in emissions

4. Summary and Conclusions

The updated 2007 and 2010 inventories indicate that energy and emissions continue to rise, although more slowly than the rate of population growth. This is primarily as a result of rising transportation emissions, particularly for trucks/SUVs and commercial vehicles. Conversely, emissions from the buildings sector have declined, led by emissions reductions in natural gas and heating oil. The rise in emissions has occurred primarily in the unincorporated areas, with incorporated areas showing a decrease overall. However, caution should be used in drawing conclusions from these results, as three years is a relatively short time period and comparisons are complicated by weather, economic conditions, and fuel prices. The CIMs model provides forward looking estimates of energy and emissions under various scenarios. The business as usual scenario predicts a 37% increase in emissions by 2050. However, federal and provincial government policies result in a 6% decrease in emissions by 2050. Local governments can build on the federal and provincial policies in a number of policy areas. Of these, the most significant reductions are achieved through increasing community density and solid waste management. Other policies analysed have relatively minor impacts, and in some cases actually increase emissions. However, this does not mean the other policies are not worthwhile. They may be supportive of federal/provincial policies or play an important educational role. But they should not be expected to directly achieve large reductions on their own. Implementing all the local government policies would result in a 32% decrease in emissions by 2030 and a 36% decrease by 2050. Implementing just the Top 3 policies - aggressive community densification, organics separation, and landfill gas collection - has even greater reductions of 32% by 2030 and 39% by 2050. While other policies may be helpful in supporting reduction efforts, it will be essential to focus on the Top 3 in order to achieve significant reductions. If fully implemented, these policies may come close to achieving the Deep Green reduction target from the CEEP. Even partial implementation (e.g. moderate community density) would likely provide a significant step towards reducing energy and GHG emissions on the Sunshine Coast.
