Progress in the Energy Matrix and in the Emissions of Gases Causing the Greenhouse Effect

This is the second issue dedicated to describing progress in the study of the Energy Matrix and the Emissions Causing the Greenhouse Effect. We present a first version of the Reference Economic Scenario proposed for discussion.

Our proposal is to work by successive approximations and we are presenting in this issue a First Approximation of the Global Consumption in Equivalent Energy and that of Electrical Energy.

We present as well a first version of one of the physical modules of Offer relative to Thermoelectric Power Plants Expansion.

Introduction
Steps followed in order to study future emissions of thermal power plants
Reference Economic Scenario
Scenario used for studying emissions and the present Reference Scenario for the Energy Matrix and for Emissions.

Preliminary Evaluation for the 2000-2020 period
(considering the Reference Scenario):

Demand in Equivalent Energy
Electric Energy Demand
This first approximation makes global correlation and it will be improved in the sectorial treatment

2000 – 2020 Thermoelectric Generation and Fuels Participation

Participation of Power Plants by Type of Fuel used in Generation

Necessary Thermal Generation Capacity

Emissions in Thermal Power Plants

Conclusions and Sensitivity Evaluation
