Energy Development Issues
High energy import dependence, the energy supplies system is vulnerable
How to decouple CO2 emissions with economic growth
High fossil fuel share, to increase renewable energy is difficult
New energy development lacks of market competition as well as market inducements
5
Energy Development Challenges
Pursue the vision of nuclear free country Enhance the energy supplies security Promote green energy use Develop new energy technology

The Meaning of the SED
SED must satisfy
1. Energy Security
2. Economic Competitiveness
3. Environmental Protection

Sustainability Indicators Criteria(Geiz and Kutzmark,1998)
It should reflect sustainability concepts It will be defined with indicators:data in
quantitative or qualitative are available It should be based on timely information:
indicators have to relevant to the time It based on the reliable information: the data
must be dependable It reflects a strategic view: a way of choosing
actions today that will cause problems tomorrow

SED Investigation in Taiwan
The new idea of this research
split into energy policy sustainability(EPS) and energy development sustainability(EDS)
Choose Evaluation method
1. Balance Scorecard( BSC):used in EPS
2. DSR structure(IAEA,OECD framework): used in EDS

Policy Simulation: Energy Intensity Reduction (by energy intensive sector )(1%,2%,3%) ,and hold GDP per capita growth 4% as well
46
Policy Simulation: Energy per Capita Reduction (1%,2%,3%),and hold GDP per capita growth 4% as well
50
Policy Simulation: Both the Energy per Capita and Energy Intensity(by sector) Reduction (1%,2%,3%) ,and hold GDP per capita growth 4% as well
53
Conclusion
Sustainable Energy Development is the biggest priority of national sustainable development
Both energy policy and energy development are moving towards the sustainability pathway, but not on the path yet.
Enhancing green energy consumption is a policy priority in the future
54
Conclusion(Cont’)
TISED system regression model indicates that
1. Energy intensity,export value per energy,energy import dependence, excess energy supply and CO2 emissions will couple with GDP per capita growth
2. Pollutants in urban area will decouple with GDP per capita growth
55
Conclusion(Cont’)
Reduce both the energy intensity of energy intensive industry and energy per capita will improve energy intensity of economy-wide, air pollution, CO2 emissions, as well as energy import dependence, which are two of the key sustainable energy policies and measures in the future.
