PREVIOUS AND ONGOING NAUTILUS INSTITUTE DPRK ENERGY WORK

OVERALL APPROACH TO DPRK ENERGY SECTOR ANALYTICAL WORK

Obtain as much information as possible about the DPRK economy and energy sector from media sources, visitors to the DPRK, and other sources

Use available information, comparative analysis, and judgment to assemble a coherent and consistent picture of the DPRK energy sector

Think about possible future paths for DPRK energy sector and economy, what changes (national, regional, global) might bring those paths about, what changes might mean at end-use, infrastructure levels

Page 6: 1 EVALUATION OF ENERGY PATHS FOR THE DPRK Asian Energy Security (AES)/East Asia Energy Futures (EAEF) Project Fifth Asian Energy Security Workshop 12 to

PREPARATION AND ANALYSIS OF ENERGY PATHS FOR THE DPRK

Goals of Paths Analysis Assemble plausible, internally-consistent

alternative energy paths for the DPRK, based on the best information available

Explore, in a quantitative manner whenever possible (but not exclusively) the relative energy security implications of the different paths, including the implications of energy sector cooperation between countries of Northeast Asia

Use energy paths as focus, starting point for discussions of how regional/other actors might assist in sustainable re-development of DPRK energy sector

Page 7: 1 EVALUATION OF ENERGY PATHS FOR THE DPRK Asian Energy Security (AES)/East Asia Energy Futures (EAEF) Project Fifth Asian Energy Security Workshop 12 to

PREPARATION AND ANALYSIS OF ENERGY PATHS FOR THE DPRK

Philosophy in Paths Preparation/Evaluation Design paths that are plausible, and, under the right

conditions, potentially achievable At the same time, paths shown are not intended in

any way to judge what should happen Paths are built upon best, most internally-consistent

DPRK information we can find, but there are undoubtedly many inaccuracies in the analysis

We look forward to working with DPRK colleagues to improve analysis, make more applicable

Paths are therefore a starting point for further discussion and analysis

PREPARATION AND ANALYSIS OF ENERGY PATHS FOR THE DPRK

Overall Approach in Paths Preparation/Evaluation Start with older DPRK LEAP dataset that includes

several paths evaluated briefly in previous work Update data set to reflect most recent Nautilus

estimates of 1996 and 2000 DPRK energy use (overall analysis period for paths, 1990 to 2025)

Develop overall “themes” for several (4) paths to be evaluated

Identify specific assumptions for use in implementing the themes within LEAP

Modify paths so that all paths have the same 2005 energy picture

PREPARATION AND ANALYSIS OF ENERGY PATHS FOR THE DPRK

Overall Approach in Paths Preparation/Evaluation Prepare demand-side data entries (and document

assumptions in Excel workbook) Enter demand-side assumptions in LEAP De-bug demand-side datasets Prepare approximate supply-side data entries (and

document in Excel workbook) Enter supply-side assumptions in LEAP, calculate, and

modify parameters so that supply and demand balance Enter cost and environmental data for all paths Run all paths, check results, debug, re-run, and

evaluate relative demand, transformation, cost, environmental results of paths

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Redevelopment” Path Used as National Reference path for DPRK Current political stalemate solved within next few

years, DPRK receives international assistance/cooperation in redevelopment

Industrial sector is revitalized, but mostly not rebuilt as it was before More iron and steel from scrap, efficiency improvements in

iron and steel, cement Most industry 50% of 1990 output by 2015, growth at

1.5%/yr thereafter; textiles, fertilizer higher Natural gas begins to be used in industry ~2015

11

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Redevelopment” Path (continued) Considerable increase in new light-industrial production

(IT, auto parts, joint ventures…) Increase in diesel, electricity use for light industry

Agricultural sector re-mechanized Cropped area decreases, but electricity, oil use in agriculture

increases (coal/biomass use decreases) Increase in residential electricity consumption

Fraction of population in urban areas increase Consumption of electricity, LPG, kerosene increase, NG use

begins, coal use declines Commercial sector expands rapidly

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Redevelopment” Path (continued) Transport sector, particularly personal transport,

expands markedly Civilian auto, plane, train, bus transport per person rise Efficiency improvements in road, rail transport modes

Military ground forces activity decreases Energy efficiency in military sector improves

Investment in new electricity infrastructure New coal, gas combined-cycle, some rehabilitation of

older plants, particularly hydro, new small hydro, existing coal plants retired over time, KEDO reactors completed 2013 (export power)

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Redevelopment” Path (continued) Re-investment in East Coast refinery

Back on line by 2012, expanded 2015, with power plant expanded as well

Oil products imported as needed to meet demand above domestic refining output

Natural gas, first as LNG, begins to play a role in powering industry, electricity generation, urban residences starting in about 2012 Smaller LNG terminal built (Nampo?), part of output exported

Coal/Coke Exports/Imports at 2000 levels

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Recent Trends” Path Assumes that current political difficuties remain,

or are addressed only very slowly DPRK economy opens a very little, aid flows

modest, infrastructure erodes Very gradual increase in industrial output relative

to 2000 (after 2005) Industrial energy intensities remain high Other Minerals (magnesite) production increases

Transport activity increases slowly Civilian auto transport grows most

15

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Recent Trends” Path (continued) Residential energy demand increases slowly

Continued emphasis on coal, but electricity gradually more available

Some modernization/re-mechanization of the agricultural sector Fertilizer, oil, electricity use up slightly over time Cropped area doesn’t change

Fisheries effort increases slowly Military sector energy use, activity change little Commercial sector floorspace, electricity/coal use grow

somewhat

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Recent Trends” Path (continued) Transmission and distribution losses remain high

through 2015, decrease slightly after 2015 Fraction of fuel inputs to coal-fired power plants as

HFO declines with end of KEDO oil deliveries 10 MW of small hydro power plants are added

each year from 2005 on Total capacity at existing hydro and oil-fired power

plants does not change over time Coal-fired capacity meets net electricity demand after

hydro, oil-fired plant output are factored in. KEDO nuclear reactors not completed

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Recent Trends” Path (continued) Imports of heavy fuel oil via KEDO cease in 2003. Other oil products (and HFO from elsewhere)

continue to be imported at year 2000 levels West Coast refineries continue to operate

Output increases slightly over time to cover demand net of imports

Coal and coke imports and exports remain the same as in 2000 throughout the period modeled.

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Sustainable Development” Path (National Alternative Path)

Provides the same energy services as “Redevelopment” Path—with same demographic assumptions, economic output—but…

Applies energy efficiency, renewable energy, other measures, in an aggressive fashion Upgrading of industrial infrastructure goes above

average standards to high-efficiency international standards

Rapid phase-out of existing coal-fired power plants. Earlier addition of LNG (liquefied natural gas) terminal

and gas CC (combined cycle) generating plants

“Sustainable Development” Path (continued) Public and Commercial Sectors Modifications

Improvement in coal-fired boilers, building envelope improvements, and overall electricity use improvement

Electricity Generation Modifications Accelerated phase-out of existing coal-fired generating

capacity (all 2005 capacity retired by 2025) The addition of an integrated-gasification combined-cycle

(IGCC ) generating plant in 2020 (300 MW) Aggressive wind power development, new small/ medium

hydro, focus on refurbishment of existing hydro Less new coal-fired and gas combined-cycle capacity is

built, especially in the years 2015 to 2025

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Sustainable Development” Path (continued) Other Transformation Modifications

Additional district heating capacity is built to provide for expanded residential sector use

LNG capacity is built earlier (first phase started in 2010, and second and third phases brought on line one year earlier) than in the Redevelopment case, but the same final capacity is in place by 2025 as in the Redevelopment path

Costs Cost estimates included for all demand end-uses,

transformation processes, and fuels whose use changes relative to the Redevelopment case

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Regional Alternative” Path Follows modifications identified for the DPRK in

Regional Alternative paths document Demand-sector Modifications

As a result of regional cooperation, efficiency improvement targets reached two years earlier at costs 10% less than in Sustainable Development path

Costs of cooperation reflected as module cost Transformation-sector Modifications

Gas pipeline from RFE begins operation in 2011; 3% of gas used in DPRK initially, 10% by 2020, 15% by 2030

DPRK gets $10 million/yr “rent” for hosting the pipeline

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Regional Alternative” Path (continued) Transformation-sector Modifications (continued)

LNG facility roughly 3 times larger than in Redevelopment case starts operation in 2012; most output exported to the ROK

A power line from the Russian Far East through the DPRK to ROK is modeled as importing 100 MW of power to DPRK at discounted price of $0.02/ kWh

Participation in regional cooperative activities related to nuclear research and to nuclear waste handling, with annual costs (most possibly in-kind) to the DPRK from 2006

DPRK ENERGY PATHS CONSIDERED

“Regional Alternative” Path (continued) Transformation-sector Modifications (continued)

Cooperation in renewable energy technologies with annual costs to the DPRK from 2007 on, earlier deployment,10% reduction in cost of wind, small hydro technologies

Some changes in the schedule of additions of new coal-fired plants and gas-fired plants occurs

Last of the coal-fired plants existing as of 2005 are retired in 2020

DPRK ENERGY PATHS: INITIAL CONCLUSIONS FROM RESULTS

Sustainable Development Case indicates significant reductions in energy use, emissions, are possible relative to Redevelopment Case, and…

Net costs of those reductions may be relatively small or even negative May offer opportunity for application of Clean

Development Mechanisms to share costs, carbon credits

Regional Alternative Case offers similar benefits, but net costs very dependent on resource prices

NEXT STEPS IN DPRK ENERGY PATHS ANALYSIS

Next Steps on DPRK Paths Analysis Refine and improve reference cost and performance

assumptions, particularly on the demand side, but for transformation, resources as well (Regional Alternatives)

Additional debugging of dataset Sensitivity analysis (key costs, prices) Consideration of non-quantitative impacts on energy

security Consideration of other path variants

Work with DPRK Colleagues to Improve Analysis, Fully Implement in DPRK
