Baseline scenario target
NDC target
Unconditional target:
• 15% below BAU by 2030 (incl. LULUCF). BAU to reach 73.59 MtCO₂e/yr by 2030.
Conditional target:
• 45% below BAU emissions by 2030 (incl. LULUCF). BAU to reach 73.59 MtCO₂e/yr by
2030.
• Estimated 2030 conditional target to reach 29-47% above 2010 levels (or 30-35
MtCO₂e/yr) by 2030 (exl. LULUCF).
Market mechanism
• Expressed intention to develop compliance grade emission reduction units in the waste
and energy sectors, as well as REDD+.
Long-term target

Sectoral targets
Energy
• Scale up share of renewable energy in total energy mix to 10% by 2030.
• Double energy efficiency improvement to 20% in industrial facilities (by scaling up
installation of power factor correction devices in 1000 commercial and industrial
facilities).
• Scale up adoption of LPG use to 50% of peri-urban and rural households by 2030.
• Scale up access and adoption of 2 million efficient cook stoves by 2030.
• Increase LPG penetration to 50% of households by 2030.
Transport
• Expansion of inter and intra city mass transportation modes (Rail and bus transit system)
in four cities.
Power
• Double energy efficiency improvement to 20% in power plants (by scaling up of 120
MSCF natural gas replacement of light crude oil for electricity generation in thermal
plants).
• Increase solar lantern replacement in rural non-electrified households to 2 million.
• Universal access to grid electricity by 2025.
• Increase renewable energy capacity from 42.5 MW in 2015 to 1363.63 MW in 2030.
• Planned addition of 72 MW solar and 150 MW wind in the next decade.
Buildings
• No quantified sectoral target available.
Waste
• Improve urban solid waste collection effectiveness to 90% by 2030.
