3 International Aviation Total Fuel Burn (Mt) Context Aircraft fuel burn from international aviation, including potential replacement of jet fuel with alternative fuels (ICAO, 2016) Baseline including Fleet Renewal Contribution of Technology Improvements Contribution of Improved ATM and infrastructure Use Replacement by Alternative Fuels Illustrative Case Potential demand for biojet by 2040: 400 Mt (= approx 490 billion l) Current global biofuel production: 133 billion l Potential contribution of fuel burn reduction scenarios Potential contribution of alternative fuels to petroleum-based jet fuel replacement ANALYSIS YEAR Dashed line represents 100% replacement of conventional jet fuel with alternative fuel by
4 Context Africa, and particularly Sub-Saharan Africa, is seen as one of the major expansion areas for the production of biofuel feedstock. The importance of taking a system view of biomass for energy development. The sustainability of large scale biofuel supply depends on available resources for the production of biomass feedstock in the context of future demand for food, water resources and the need to safeguard natural environments. 4
5 Aims and Objectives We aim for an estimation of current and future sustainable biofuel potentials for Sub- Saharan Africa in accordance with the principles of the Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB) for the following categories of biofuel feedstock: 1. Land-based energy crops 2. Crop residues TO ESTIMATE THE POTENTIAL OF LAND-BASED ENERGY CROPS, WE MUST: 1. Estimate the amount of land that is available for feedstock production 2. Pick the crop that would deliver the highest energy yield 5
6 APROACH TO POTENTIAL ASSESSMENT
7 Land Resources & Agro-ecological Zoning FAO and IIASA have developed a spatial analysis system that enables rational land-use planning on the basis of an inventory of land resources and evaluation of biophysical limitations and production potentials of land. GAEZ spatial databases provide: Spatial distribution of current land use/cover in Sub-Saharan Africa consistent with FAO cropland statistics and remotely sensed data. Inventory of protected areas & areas of high value for the environment and biodiversity Climate of 5 arcminute resolution of current ( ) and projections for future ( ) conditions Soil attributes and terrain/slope conditions For more information see ( and ( Land productivity assessment for food crops and biofuel feedstocks 7
8 The RSB Principles 1. Legality 7. Conservation 2. Planning, monitoring & Continuous Improvement 8. Soil 3. Greenhouse Gas Emissions 9. Water 4. Human & Labour Rights 10. Air Quality 5. Rural and Social Development 11. Use of Technology, Inputs & Management of Waste 6. Local Food Security 12. Land 8

22 MAIN MESSAGES
23 Main insights emerging from the modelling work There is potential for RSB-compliant biofuel based on energy crops in Sub- Saharan Africa, but it is limited and calls for the prioritisation of biomass among the competing uses. The potential for all crops increases substantially if we include moderately suitable areas, but this will increase the cost of production. Annual feedstock crops mostly cannot meet the strict RSB GHG criteria if dluc takes place, even under quite ambitious soil management assumptions. Perennial crops, can very often meet the strict GHG criteria. Ethanol pathways are usually more productive (in terms of MJ/ha) than vegetable oil based biofuel chains. The potential for solaris and sweet sorghum increases over time, while potential for other crops decreases. Miscanthus is showing the largest potential, suggesting that the long-term future of crop-based biofuels is lignocellulosic. Risk of invasiveness. Local value chains to achieve required GHG emission savings. 23
24 ADDITIONAL INSIGHTS
25 Framework for identifying potential of new emerging crops Support optimisation of land use for energy production while addressing sustainability concerns Develop future scenarios by varying parameters on diet / crop yields / other Identify bright spots for biofuel production Identify potential within certain radius of a specific location (i.e. aviation hub) 25
26 Best RSB-compliant biodiesel feedstocks on REMAIN land (current) 26
27 Bright spots of biofuel potentials from REMAIN land: Cumulative biodiesel potential (in TJ) in a radius of 100 km 27
28 Best RSB-compliant bioethanol feedstocks on REMAIN land (current) 28
29 Bright spots of biofuel potentials from REMAIN land: Cumulative bioethanol potential (in TJ) in a radius of 100 km 29
30 Intensity and spatial distribution of lignocellulosic crop residues in 2010 (in 1000 t dry matter) 30
31 Assessing potential in your region This same approach can be applied to other regions of the world. We can build a picture of the amount of RSB-certified biofuel that can be produced globally. Looking beyond current production to future climate change and human development scenarios. Facilitating investment and long-term planning as well as protecting the planet. WWF and RSB are looking for partners to make this happen. 31
