We use our Carbonomics framework to model the evolution of Europe’s energy system towards a lower cost, lower imports, lower carbon system. Our analysis leads to five main conclusions: 1) Cumulative infrastructure investments of €10 trn will be needed by 2050 for Europe s energy transformation, reaching the equivalent of 2% of GDP by 2030. This incremental investment is fully offset by a €10 trn reduction in net energy imports, reducing the net energy import dependency rate of the region from 58% to 15% by 2050. Efficient financing and a reliable regulatory environment are key to bridge the 10-year time gap between the two flows. 2) Europe s new energy system would improve affordability. We estimate the direct energy cost to the average European consumer could be reduced by c.40% vs 2021 and c.60% from the peak (2022) owing to improved energy efficiency, lower cost LNG, cheaper renewables and better regional connectivity. 3) Natural gas remains key to Europe’s energy supply for the next two decades and we believe it is in Europe’s interest to sign up to an additional 40 mtpa of 15-yr LNG contracts, and potentially up to another 50 mtpa of 10-yr LNG contracts, to improve security of supply and drive a new cycle of LNG construction. We identify 15 new LNG projects for a total of 155 mtpa that can deliver gas to Europe at 2% of GDP by 2030 and peaking by mid-2030s.

We note that this figure focuses solely on incremental infrastructure investments and does not include maintenance and other end-use capex. We estimate that this infrastructure investment can be entirely recouped from the savings of net energy imports. Our model sees a material reduction in the energy dependency rate of the region, from c.58% currently to 80% of its natural gas needs and with that supply largely dominated by a handful of regions: Russia, Norway, Algeria, Nigeria, the US, and Qatar. This is no longer sustainable, in light of the current geopolitical landscape. We incorporate the EU’s ambition for 2/3 reduction in Russian gas imports by the end of this year and zero gas imports by the end of this decade (2030) into our modelling, concluding that the shortfall between gross natural gas demand and available domestic supply plus other ex-Russian pipelines imports has to be met with incremental LNG imported volumes. This analysis suggests it is in Europe’s interest to sign up to an additional 40 mtpa of 15-yr LNG contracts, and potentially up to another 50 mtpa of 10-yr LNG contracts, to improve security and diversification of supply – and allow a new generation of LNG projects to be developed for Europe. We leverage our Top projects database to identify 15 projects that could supply up to a total of 155 mtpa pa to Europe with a long-term LNG price of $8-12/mcf. On the oil side, our European energy system evolution model shows oil demand increasing to the middle of this decade, largely driven by the ongoing recovery of aviation, before starting a gradual decline which accelerates post 2030, driven by the higher penetration of EVs and better charging infrastructure. We estimate that the next major cycle of refinery closures in Europe will only be needed by 2027, when the refining utilisation rate falls below the historical average for the region. 20 July 2022 8 Goldman Sachs Carbonomics Renewable power is at the heart of Europe’s energy system re-invention, with power demand more than doubling by 2050, and green hydrogen accounting for c.15% of Europe’s energy mix long term. Electrification is the most important driver of lower emissions and lower energy import dependence in our modelling, with a more than doubling of European power demand by 2050. However renewable power intermittency and seasonality create the need for large-scale energy storage solutions, of which green hydrogen will be the most important, in our view. Hydrogen currently has a niche role, mostly in chems and refining. However, we see hydrogen emerging as a critical technology in the long term, addressing the seasonal discrepancy between renewable power supply and power demand and aiding the de-carbonization of heavy industry and transport. Accelerated electrification of heating is likely to result in large power demand and supply imbalances, making the role of a molecular seasonal energy storage solution vital. We identify three key roles of clean hydrogen in the power generation industry that can enhance system resilience and enable higher uptake of renewable power, while on the industrial side, hydrogen is the natural successor of natural gas and coal for diversification of energy supply in energy-intense industrial processes. Overall, we believe hydrogen demand for Europe will surpass 60 Mtpa long term, in a scenario consistent with ‘Fit for 55’, reaching c.15% of the region’s final energy consumption and creating a c.€0.74 tn cumulative investment opportunity in the direct hydrogen supply chain in Europe. The map of energy flows is transformed by emerging low cost renewables and green hydrogen exporters including Iberia, parts of Southern Europe and the UK The energy import dependency of Europe can be reduced materially, with inter-regional hydrocarbon flows between Europe and the rest of the world being substituted by clean energy intra-regional flows between European countries – in a more inter-connected European system of power networks and hydrogen pipelines. We conduct an analysis to address the competitive positioning of key European countries across the most critical energy technologies of the future: solar, onshore wind, offshore wind, green hydrogen. We also note the inclusion of the population density measure for context regarding the potential space constrains associated with the scale-up of these technologies onshore. The map of European energy flows can be transformed by emerging low cost renewables and green hydrogen exporters including Iberia, parts of Southern Europe (Southeastern France, Italy, Greece) and the UK (offshore wind). Iberia in particular screens very attractively on the potential of solar energy and low cost production of green hydrogen (both in terms of the implied solar PV LCOE and with regards to space availability and population density) whilst the UK screens attractively in terms of its cost positioning in offshore wind. 20 July 2022 9 Goldman Sachs Carbonomics Re-Inventing Europe’s energy system: A sectoral modeling approach consistent with the de-carbonization ambitions of the region Laying out the path for Europe’s energy evolution: A sectoral modeling approach leveraging our Carbonomics framework In this report, we introduce our model for the evolution of the European energy system over the coming decades towards a more secure, more affordable and more sustainable system, consistent with achieving net zero by 2050 and the key ambitions laid out by the European Commission as part of the ‘Fit for 55’ package (at least 55% net emissions reduction by 2030 vs 1990 level, at least 40% renewable energy sources in the overall energy mix by 2030). For the purpose of this modeling and analysis, reference to the Europe region throughout this report refers to the EU27 countries plus the UK (formerly referred to as EU28), unless otherwise indicated. The methodology we adopted with regards to our energy modeling is summarized in Exhibit 20 below, and explained in detail in the section following this exhibit. The key terminology and definitions of the terms outlined in the exhibit and throughout this report are consistent with the energy balances terminology adopted by Eurostat (the European Statistical Office, a directorate-general of the European Commission).

The final energy consumption is defined as the total energy consumed by the end users in each of these sectors, the energy which reaches the final consumer’s door and excludes that which is used by the energy sector itself. As mentioned, overall, for the modeling of the final energy consumption, we leverage our Carbonomics framework to construct this model, and we adopt a sect
