The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that fossil fuels will remain the dominant source of energy up to 2030.
Det internasjonale energibyrå (IEA) regner med at fossilt brennstoff fortsatt vil være den dominerende energikilden helt til 2030.
Oil, natural gas and coal will continue to account for more than 80% of overall energy demand more than 20 years from now.
Olje, naturgass og kull vil fortsatt utgjøre over 80 % av det samlede energibehovet om mer enn 20 år.
During this same period, global energy demand is projected to expand by around 50%.
I samme tidsrom viser beregningene at energietterspørselen på verdensbasis vil øke med rundt 50 %.
Again, Norway’s dilemma is therefore also Europe’s – as it is the world’s – dilemma.
Igjen: Norges dilemma er også Europas – og verdens – dilemma.
And we – Europeans – have to tailor our approach in such a way that it can form a constructive part of the world’s approach.
Og vi – europeerne – må skreddersy våre tiltak på en slik måte at de kan bli et konstruktivt bidrag til verdens samlede tilnærming.
Norway will seek to ensure that the production and use of Norwegian oil and gas involves lower emissions compared with the production and use of energy from other suppliers.
Norge går inn for at produksjon og bruk av norsk olje og gass skal gi lavere utslipp enn produksjon og bruk av energi fra andre leverandører.
So we need a combination of political, economic and technological measures.
Vi trenger altså en kombinasjon av politiske, økonomiske og teknologiske virkemidler.
And, of course, within a framework of international cooperation.
Og dette selvsagt innenfor internasjonale samarbeidsrammer.
The EU is making a big difference in the global process towards a new binding international agreement on addressing climate change.
EU er en viktig deltaker i den globale prosessen frem mot en ny, forpliktende internasjonal avtale om tiltak mot klimaendringer.
Norway is striving to do its part, but we will never be able to tip the balance in this global negotiating process.
Norge anstrenger seg for å bidra, men kan aldri bli tungen på vektskålen i denne globale forhandlingsprosessen.
Where Norway can make a difference both for Europe’s – and for the world’s – approach to climate change is in the areas where we have unique experience and expertise.
Norges mulighet til å påvirke både Europas og verdens tilnærming i klimaspørsmål ligger i vår unike erfaring og fagkunnskap på viktige områder.
Let me first turn to the Norwegian petroleum sector.
La meg for det første ta for meg den norske petroleumssektoren.
I was a young boy at the time of the first UN conference on the environment in Stockholm 35 years ago, and since then generations of Norwegians have been well schooled in sustainable development.
Jeg var selv ung da FN holdt sin første miljøkonferanse i Stockholm for 35 år siden, og siden da har generasjoner av nordmenn fått grundig opplæring i bærekraftig utvikling.
Norway was the first country to introduce a CO2 tax on petroleum production in the early 1990s.
Norge var det første landet som innførte CO2-avgift på petroleumsproduksjon tidlig på 1990-tallet.
This attracted a lot of attention and debate.
Dette vekket stor oppmerksomhet og førte til mye debatt.
What we have seen, however, is that environmental regulations and taxation have spurred technological innovation and made our industry more – not less – competitive in world markets.
Det vi imidlertid har sett, er at miljøreguleringer og miljøbeskatning har utløst teknologisk nyskaping og gjort vår industri mer – og ikke mindre – konkurransedyktig på verdensmarkedet.
Today, the Norwegian continental shelf is the most energy-efficient petroleum producing region in the world with CO2 emissions that are less than a third of the global average per unit produced.
I dag er den norske kontinentalsokkelen verdens mest energieffektive petroleumsproduserende region, med CO2-utslipp som er mindre enn en tredel av verdensgjennomsnittet per produsert enhet.
Where we really could make a difference that would matter, is in the field of technological advances.
Det er innen teknologiske nyvinninger vi virkelig kan gjøre noe som monner.
The IPCC has found that 20% of the answer to the climate change challenge needs to be met through capture and storage of CO2.
IPCC anslår at fangst og lagring av CO2 vil måtte stå for 20–30 % av svaret på klimautfordringen.
We introduced the first generation of this technology in the North Sea more than ten years ago.
Første generasjons teknologi på dette området tok vi i bruk i Nordsjøen for over ti år siden.
For years, we have successfully stored CO2 under the Sleipner gas field off the west coast of Norway.
Norge har i en årrekke lagret CO2 under gassfeltet Sleipner utenfor vestlandskysten.
Now we have set the course to take decisive steps forward in this direction.
Vi har nå stukket ut en kurs og kan ta avgjørende skritt i riktig retning.
What is new is the ambition of applying the technology to new areas and on a wider scale.
Det nye er ambisjonen om å ta i bruk teknologi på nye områder i større skala.
Looking towards the future, we need to develop a technology for capturing CO2 from gas- and coal-fired power plants, from the raw nerve centre of the modern economy – the production of electricity.
På lengre sikt må vi utvikle en teknologi for å fange CO2 fra gass- og kullfyrte kraftverk – fra selve ”nervesenteret” i moderne økonomi: produksjon av elektrisk kraft.
According to the IEA, carbon capture and storage (CCS) could reduce CO2 emissions by 20–28% by 2050.
Ifølge Det internasjonale energibyrå (IEA) vil fangst og lagring av karbon kunne redusere CO2-utslippene med 20–80 % innen 2050.
UNDP has underlined that CCS holds out the promise of coal-fired power generation with near zero emissions.
UNDP har understreket at det med slik fangst og lagring kan bli mulig å produsere strøm med kull så å si uten utslipp.
It is considered a “key break-through technology”.
Det regnes som en ”sentral gjennombruddsteknologi”.
But to make a viable technological breakthrough, the costs have to be brought down.
Men for at et teknologisk gjennombrudd skal gi varig nytteverdi, må kostnadene senkes.
Significantly.
Betraktelig.
Norway is in the process of establishing pilot projects – at Mongstad and Kårstø – with a view to capturing and storing CO2 from full-scale gas-fired power plants.
Norge er i ferd med å etablere pilotprosjekter – på Mongstad og Kårstø – med sikte på å fange og lagre CO2 fra gassfyrte kraftverk i full skala.
These are very challenging projects, both technologically and financially.
Dette er svært krevende prosjekter, både teknologisk og økonomisk.
We will continue to be a front runner in developing these technologies.
Vi vil fortsette å lede an i utviklingen av denne teknologien.
And we will deliver.
Og vi vil levere resultater.
I am very pleased that the Commission’s energy and climate package recognises the need for both public and private investments in new technologies.
Jeg er svært glad for at kommisjonen med sin energi- og klimapakke erkjenner at det både trengs offentlige og private investeringer i ny teknologi.
Your proposals on energy efficiency have the potential to deliver a double dividend: reducing CO2 emissions and cutting energy costs.
Forslagene om energieffektivisering vil kunne gi en ”dobbel avkastning”: både reduserte CO2-utslipp og lavere energikostnader.
We look forward to exploring the potential for further cooperation with the EU in this area.
Vi gleder oss til å se nærmere på mulighetene for videre samarbeid med EU på dette området.
Through the EEA Financial Mechanisms we already contribute to greenhouse gas reduction through energy efficiency measures and increased use of renewable and sustainable energy in the new member countries of the EU.
Gjennom finansieringsmekanismene i EØS bidrar vi allerede til energieffektiviseringstiltak og økt bruk av fornybar og bærekraftig energi i de nye medlemsstatene i EU, med reduserte klimagassutslipp som resultat.
Secondly, let’s turn to shipping.
For det andre kan vi nevne skipsfarten.
The Norwegian Shipowners’ Association recently announced the goal of zero emissions for the industry.
Norges rederiforbund kunngjorde nylig at næringen har satt seg som mål å oppnå ”nullutslipp”.
Their conviction is that this ambition can be combined with securing the competitive edge.
Forbundet mener at en slik ambisjon ikke trenger gå ut over konkurranseevnen.
This supports what the EU and Norway keep stressing internationally: strong action to fight climate change and a low-carbon economy that is compatible with growth and prosperity.
Dette underbygger det synet EU og Norge stadig hevder i internasjonal sammenheng: Lavkarbonøkonomi og resolutt handling for å bekjempe klimaendringene er forenlig med vekst og velstand.
Norway had decided to contribute substantial funds to assisting developing countries in combating deforestation.
For det tredje har Norge vedtatt å gi betydelig økonomisk bistand til utviklingsland i kampen mot avskoging.
At Bali, Prime Minister Stoltenberg announced that Norway would allocate some NOK 3 billion annually for this purpose – or EUR 300 million.
På Bali i desember kunngjorde statsminister Stoltenberg at Norge ville bevilge rundt tre milliarder kroner – eller 300 millioner euro – til dette formålet årlig.
Efforts to reduce deforestation is a cost-effective way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
Kamp mot avskoging er en kostnadseffektiv måte å redusere utslippene av drivhusgasser på.
Norway will seek to ensure that such measures are included in international agreements.
Norge vil være pådriver for å innarbeide slike tiltak i internasjonale avtaler.
Natural forests in South East Asia are disappearing at a rate of the equivalent of 36 football pitches per minute.
Naturlige skogområder i Sørøst-Asia forsvinner i et tempo som tilsvarer 36 fotballbaner per minutt.
Deforestation accounts for some 20% of greenhouse gas emissions.
Avskoging står for rundt 20 % av utslippet av drivhusgasser.
Norway will assist developing countries in other areas as well.
Norge vil bistå utviklingsland også på andre områder.
There is broad agreement that the impact of climate change is likely to hit developing countries – and particularly the poorest in these countries – disproportionately hard.
Det er bred enighet om at effektene av klimaendringene vil ramme utviklingslandene – særlig de fattigste av dem – uforholdsmessig hardt.
Later this week – here in Oslo – together with UNDP, Norway will hold a conference on how to prevent and respond to natural disasters and climate change with particular focus on developing countries.
Senere denne uken – her i Oslo – skal Norge sammen med UNDP arrangere en konferanse om hvordan man kan forebygge og svare på naturkatastrofer og klimaendringer, med særlig fokus på utviklingslandene.
Mr President, ladies and gentlemen,
President, mine damer og herrer,
The EU and Norway are working closely together here.
EU og Norge samarbeider nært på dette området.
There are so many other fields where we are partners as well.
Vi er partnere på så mange andre områder også.
Europe’s challenges are also our challenges.
Europas utfordringer er våre utfordringer.
Now, our eyes are fixed on the Balkans.
Nå har vi blikket også rettet mot Balkan.
The EU and NATO will have key roles to play in maintaining stability.
EU og NATO vil spille nøkkelroller i arbeidet med å sikre stabilitet i regionen.
Kosovo needs development, security and stability.
Kosovo har behov for utvikling, sikkerhet og stabilitet.
And Serbia needs to be welcomed on the fast track to European integration.
Og Serbia trenger å bli plassert på ”hurtigspor” mot europeisk integrasjon.
In today’s Europe, burdens must be shared, commitments kept, and challenges faced – together.
I dagens Europa må byrder fordeles, forpliktelser overholdes og utfordringer møtes – sammen.
This is Europe’s way.
Det er Europas vei.
And it is Norway’s way, too.
Og det er Norges vei.
I believe that in the areas where Norway has unique expertise and experience, we can make a real difference for Europe’s – and for the world’s – approach to climate change.
På de områdene der Norge har unik ekspertise og erfaring, tror jeg vi kan vi bety noe for hvordan Europa – og verden – forholder seg til klimaendringene.
And in the areas where we have strong historical ties – such as with the peoples in the Balkans – we offer our experience to make a difference and to promote peace on our own continent.
Og der vi har sterke historiske bånd – for eksempel med befolkningene på Balkan – tilbyr vi vår erfaring for å fremme fred på vårt eget kontinent.
And now, Mr President, as you leave Oslo for Svalbard – as far north in Norway as you can get – I hope you will bring with you our commitment to work together with the EU to find solutions to what can be called the ultimate moral and political challenge of our generation.
President, når De nå drar videre fra Oslo til Svalbard – så langt nord i Norge som det er mulig å komme, håper jeg De tar med Dem vårt engasjement for å samarbeide med EU om løsninger på det vi kan kalle ”vår generasjons ultimate moralske og politiske utfordring”.
Because – as Nobel Laureate Al Gore reminded us here in Oslo in December – “political will is a renewable source”.
For – som nobelprisvinner Al Gore minte oss på her i Oslo i desember 2007 – ”politisk vilje er en fornybar ressurs”.

My prediction is that in the next generation or so, the High North is going to emerge as a region of great interest to lawyers, political scientists and economists, and that issues such as climate change, research, indigenous peoples and transport will be at the centre of their attention.
