Methodology

SM Figure 1: Scenario assumptions on GDP per capita across the three growth scenarios.

1 SM Figure 2: Scenario assumptions on fossil fuel extraction cost curves across the three fossil fuel availability scenarios. 2 SM Figure 3: Regional definitions in the REMIND model 1.

1The regional acronyms are as follows: USA – USA; LAM – Latin America; EUR – Europe; RUS – Russia; MEA – Middle- East; AFR – Africa; OAS – other Asia; CHN – China; IND – India; JPN – Japan; ROW – rest of the World.

5 SM Figure 5: Average shares of primary energy (top), electricity (middle) and liquids (bottom) for 2005-2050 (left) and 2050-2100 (right) in BAU DEF. These have been estimated by averaging the values over time, and then calculating the respective shares per type over the total.

6 SM Figure 6: Structural changes of final energy (top left), primary energy (top right), electricity (bottom left), and liquids (bottom right) in BAU DEF. Letters in black indicate the starting point in 2005 and movement towards/further from a vertex indicates increase/decrease of its share in the total.

7 SM Figure 7: Average differences in electricity (left) and liquids (right) shares between baseline variation scenarios and BAU DEF in the period 2005-2100. These have been estimated by averaging the values over time, then calculating the respective shares per type over the total, and then subtracting the shares between the respective scenario and BAU DEF.

SM Figure 8: Changes in CO2 fossil fuel and industry emissions over changes in energy intensity and carbon intensity for the 450 scenarios. All values are expressed as average fractions of the equivalent BAU scenario. These have been estimated by dividing the value in each 450 scenario by the value of the equivalent BAU scenario, and then averaging in time for the depicted periods.
