New Zealand’s Climate Commitments and Emissions Reduction Plan
•New Zealand has recently announced an increase in its Nationally

Determined Contribution (NDC) to the Paris Agreement.

•The new NDC is a 50% reduction of gross 2005 levels by 2030 (up

from 30%) and is consistent with limiting global warming to 1.5

degrees.

•The provisional emissions budget for the new NDC is 571 Mt, down

from 623 Mt.

The Government has released a draft Emissions Reduction Plan to set the

direction to reduce emissions across New Zealand. The plan includes:

•Developing an energy strategy and a renewable energytarget.

•Developing a plan to decarbonisethe industrial sector. This includes a

national direction for industrial emissions and a ban on coal boilers.

•Identifying the level of support the Government could provide for the

development of low-emissions fuels, such as bioenergyand

hydrogen, to support decarbonisation of industrial heat, electricity

and transport.

•Supporting the regulatory environment for electricity distribution
