Magnitude of the fossil-fuel consumption subsidies in selected countries in 2011 Notes: Regions underlined red are net energy importers. Appendix A provides mapping between GTAP 9.2 Data Base regions and aggregation used in this study. Appendix B provides information on fossil-fuel subsidies for regions not reported on Source: Estimated by authors based on IMF (2015), Coady et al. (2015), Aguiar et al. (2016).

Context 1

... consider a country to be a large fossil-fuel subsidy supplier if total energy subsidies value is larger than $5 billion in 2011 or corresponding value relative to GDP is over 3%. Figure 1 reports fossil-fuel subsidy values and energy subsidies' share in GDP for selected countries that satisfy the aforementioned criteria. While in value terms, most fossil-fuel subsidies are associated with net energy exporters, over 40% of subsidization cases reported on Figure 1 take place in net energy importing regions (underlined red). ...

While in value terms, most fossil-fuel subsidies are associated with net energy exporters, over 40% of subsidization cases reported on Figure 1 take place in net energy importing regions (underlined red). We further identify levels of the BaU GHG emissions by countries in 2030 and convert these values to emissions changes w.r.t. ...

... these countries, most fossil-fuel consumption subsidies are associated with electricity sector (Appendix I), while in the sectoral GHG emissions profile, electricity contributes between 3% and 17% at the national level ( Figure K.1). Significant reductions in output and emissions associated with electricity generation is outweighed by growing output in other sectors (mainly, livestock, trade and transport, and other services - Figure K.3), which leads to the sectoral GHG leakages and emissions increase at the national levels ( Figure K.2). ...
