At a global scale, switching between GWP-100 values of the Second, Fourth or Fifth IPCC Assessment Reports could result in variations in aggregated Kyoto-GHG emissions of about ±5% in 2030 (UNFCCC, 2016)UNFCCC, 2016: ''Aggregate effect of the intended nationally determined contributions: an update'' .

At a global scale, switching between GWP-100 values of the Second to the Fourth IPCC Assessment Report would result in an increase in estimated aggregated Kyoto-GHG emissions of no more than about 3% in 2030 (UNFCCC, 2016).UNFCCC, 2016: ''Aggregate effect of the intended nationally determined contributions: an update'' .

As shown below, the emissions from electricity are nearly zero around 2050, so the impact of indirect emissions on the whole emission contributions of each sector is very small in 2050.</span></li> <li><span id="fn:7">Electrification can be linked with the heating and drying process by electric boilers and electro-thermal processes, and also with low-temperature heat demand by heat pumps. In the iron and steel industry, hydrogen produced by electrolysis can be used as a reduction agent of iron instead of coke. Excess resources, such as black liquor, will provide the opportunity to increase the systematic efficiency to use for electricity generation.</span></li> <li><span id="fn:8">These are first-of-a-kind (FOAK) cost data.</span></li> <li><span id="fn:9">In this section, we only discuss the direct emissions from the sector, but the selection of building materials has a significant impact on the reduction of energy and emissions during production, such as shift from the steel and concrete to wood-based materials.</span></li> <li><span id="fn:10">This is estimated for the biofuels produced in a “sustainable manner” from non-food crop feedstocks, which are capable of delivering significant lifecycle GHG emissions savings compared with fossil fuel alternatives, and which do not directly compete with food and feed crops for agricultural land or cause adverse sustainability impacts.</span></li> <li><span id="fn:11">Land-based mitigation options on the supply and the demand side are assessed in 4.3.2, and CDR options with a land component in 4.3.7. Chapter 5 (Section 5.4) assesses the implications of land-based mitigation for related SDGs, e.g., food security.</span></li> <li><span id="fn:12">For example, the GLEAM ( http://www.fao.org/gleam/en/ ) model from the UN Food and Agricultural Organisation (FAO).</span></li> <li><span id="fn:13">Also other metrics to compare emissions have been suggested and adopted by governments nationally (Kandlikar, 1995; Marten et al., 2015; Shindell, 2015; IWG, 2016).Kandlikar, M., 1995: The relative role of trace gas emissions in greenhouse abatement policies.
