Fig. 3: Projected electricity and fuel (including liquids and gases) demand for adaptation under Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) 2 assumptions.

From: Increased energy use for adaptation significantly impacts mitigation pathways

Fig. 3

a Annual global average demand from 2020 to 2100 across the different scenarios excluding (dotted) and including (solid) the adaptation-energy feedback under the SSP2. b Regional final energy demand in 2100. Light bars show the value excluding the adaptation-energy feedback, while dark stacked bars show the positive or negative variation in energy demand induced by the adaptation-energy feedback. Labels in panel b show the regional percentage increase. Scenarios: Current policies (C.Pol), 2. 5 °C and well-below 2 °C (W.b. 2 °C).
