The initial multi-year target has been revised to a single-year end target
(2030)
Seychelles' target to reduce emissions relative to business-as-usual by 2030,
covers the energy sector (supply and end-use), refrigeration and air
conditioning (RAC), transportation and waste management.
Key sectors covered: Power sector, Refrigeration and Air-Conditioning
(RAC), Land Transport & Waste Management.
GHG covered are: carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), HFCs.
For Power sector; the targets in the previous NDC are maintained which was
derived from the Energy policy of 2009. The policy and energy strategy is
currently being reviewed. A new policy document will be presented to the
Government of Seychelles (GOS), for approval in July 2021. The target is
15.5% energy efficiency and 15.0 % renewables by 2030. These targets are
very ambitious for a Small Islands Developing State, and Seychelles is
currently producing 5.0% RE and will need to scale to plus 10.0% in 10 years
taking into account economic growth. The foreseen RE technologies to be
used will be solar PV and wind energy for electricity production. GHG target
reduction of 124 kt CO, is foreseen by 2030.
For the RAC sector, the key sub-sectors of split air conditioners (split ACs),
domestic refrigerators and stand-alone refrigerators for commercial operation
(commercial refrigeration) will be the aim of mitigation measures for the
transformations of these sub
