Urban Energy Systems:
Challenges & Opportunities
Arnulf Grubler
IIASA and Yale University
GEA Chapter 18 Urban Energy Systems
Main Messages
1. The world is already today predominantly urban (~3/4 of final energy)
2. Rural populations are likely to peak at 3.5 billion and decline after 2020
(all long-term energy growth will be urban)
3. City dwellers have often lower direct energy and carbon footprints
4. Important deficits in urban energy and carbon accounting
(embodied energy, import/export balance) jeopardize effective policies
5. Cities have specific sustainability challenges & opportunities
(high density enables demand/supply management but calls for
low waste/~zero-impact systems)
6. Vast improvement potentials (>x2), but most require management of
urban form and systemic change (recycling, cascading, energytransport, land-use-transport systems integration,..)
7. Governance Paradox:
- largest leverage from systemic change,
- but requires overcoming policy fragmentation
and dispersed, uncoordinated decision taking
