Russia: total primary energy supply from nuclear 2015-2060, by scenario

Published by D. Elagina, Sep 23, 2020

Russia was expected to increase its volume of nuclear in the total primary energy supply (TPES) by all three scenarios between 2015 and 2060, with the most steady rise forecasted in the Unfinished Symphony case, where the world was expected to aim at a low-carbon and more renewable energy. In this situation, the country's TPES from nuclear energy sources was predicted to reach 126 million tons of oil equivalent by 2060, which was approximately 1.5 times higher than the volume foreseen by the Modern Jazz scenario, which assumed a globally market-driven world with increasingly privatized gains.

Supplementary notes

* Figures from 2025 to 2060 were forecasted.

** The source defined the scenarios as follows:
"Modern Jazz represents a ‘digitally disruptive’, innovative and globally market-driven world in which gains are increasingly privatized.
Unfinished Symphony is a world in which more ‘intelligent’ and sustainable economic growth models emerge as the world aspires to a low-carbon and more renewable energy future.
Hard Rock explores the consequences of inward-looking national security priorities that contribute to weaker and unsustainable global economic growth."

Total primary energy supply (TPES) "represents the total amount of energy that is available to meet demand in a country or region in a given period of time" and is calculated by adding together primary energy production and imports and subtracting exports, bunker fuels, and changes in fuel stocks.
