Ambitious Norwegian white paper on climate efforts
Offensiv klimamelding
The Norwegian Government intends to take a number of steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote technological advances.
Regjeringen vil gjennomføre en rekke tiltak for å få ned utslippene av klimagasser og skape teknologiutvikling.
“This is an ambitious white paper.
– Vi legger fram en offensiv klimamelding.
We will be implementing more effective policy instruments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions both in Norway and abroad.
Vi styrker virkemidlene for å redusere klimagassutslippene både internasjonalt og i Norge.
The white paper, which was presented in Oslo today, keeps to the targets set out in the 2008 agreement on climate policy.
Regjeringen la i dag fram stortingsmeldingen om klimapolitikken.
Measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions will be implemented in most sectors in Norway.
Tiltakene for å få ned klimagassutslippene omfatter de fleste sektorer i Norge.
We will make it easier for people to make climate-friendly choices in their day-to-day lives, and will support industry in developing the necessary technology.
Det skal bli lettere for folk å ta klimavennlige valg i hverdagen, og industrien vil få støtte til nødvendig teknologiutvikling.
“The policy set out in this white paper will transform Norway as a whole, across all sectors, into a more climate-friendly society.
– Denne meldingen vil omstille hele Norge, alle sektorer, til et mer klimavennlig samfunn.
I believe that active, responsible use of the natural environment can make a vital contribution.
Jeg mener aktiv og ansvarlig bruk av naturen kan gi viktige klimabidrag.
I am therefore very pleased about the plans for an active forest policy, and that we will make use of the huge potential of forests to mitigate climate change,” said Minister of Transport and Communications Liv Signe Navarsete, leader of the Centre Party.
Jeg er derfor ekstra glad for at vi nå skal ta i bruk det store klimapotensialet som finnes i skogen gjennom en aktiv skogpolitikk, sier Senterparti-leder Liv Signe Navarsete.
“I am particularly pleased that there will be a concerted effort to improve public transport in cities and the larger towns, and that funding for footpaths and cycle paths is to be doubled.
– Jeg er særlig fornøyd med at det skal tas et krafttak for kollektivtransport i de store byene og at bevilgningene til gang- og sykkelveier skal dobles.
Together with the increase in the CO2 tax for the petroleum sector and the focus on technology development, this adds up to an ambitious policy for a more climate-friendly Norway,” said Audun Lysbakken, leader of the Socialist Left Party.
Sammen med høyere CO2-avgift i petroleumssektoren og satsing på teknologiutvikling gir det en offensiv politikk for et mer klimavennlig Norge, sier SV-leder Audun Lysbakken.
Funding for technology and restructuring It is vital to restructure Norwegian industry so that it can meet future requirements to cut greenhouse gas emissions.
Satsing på teknologi og omstilling Det er viktig å omstille norsk industri for å møte framtidens krav til lavere klimagassutslipp.
The Government will establish a climate and energy fund to promote technological advances in industry, under the existing public enterprise Enova.
Regjeringen vil opprette et klima- og energifond med utgangspunkt i Enova til teknologiutvikling i industrien.
The aim is to develop technology that reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
Målet er teknologiutvikling som får ned klimagassutslippene.
The fund will be increased by NOK 5 billion in 2013, resulting in a total capital of NOK 30 billion.
Fondet styrkes med 5 milliarder kroner i 2013 slik at det får en kapital på til sammen 30 milliarder kroner.
The fund will gradually be increased to 50 billion in 2020.
Det skal gradvis økes til 50 milliarder kroner i 2020.
Enova will work in close cooperation with industry, research communities, the Climate and Pollution Agency and other public agencies.
Enova skal følge opp satsingen i nært samarbeid med næringslivet, forskningsmiljøer, Klima- og forurensningsdirektoratet og andre offentlige etater.
At the same time, biological and landscape diversity must be safeguarded.
Samtidig må naturmangfoldet og hensynet til tiltakskostnader ivaretas.
In order to increase the incentive for petroleum companies to switch to electricity generated onshore, the Government will increase the CO2 tax for this sector by NOK 200 per tonne, almost twice the present level.
For å gi selskapene økte incentiver for elektrifisering vil regjeringen øke CO2-avgiften for petroleumsvirksomheten med 200 kroner per tonn.
Railway investments will be increased, particularly around cities and the largest towns.
Investeringene i jernbanen økes, særlig rundt de største byene.
Funding for footpaths and cycle paths will be doubled by 2017.
Bevilgningen til gang- og sykkelveier skal fordobles innen 2017.
The use of vehicle taxes as an incentive to switch to more environment-friendly vehicle types will continue.
Bilavgiftene skal fortsatt brukes som virkemiddel for en omlegging til en mer miljøvennlig bilpark.
Plug-in hybrid cars will be given access to parking with charging facilities.
Plug-in hybridbiler skal få tilgang til parkering med lademulighet.
The Government will promote the development of the value chain for second-generation biofuel.
Regjeringen vil bidra til utvikling av verdikjeden for andregenerasjons biodrivstoff.
A climate-friendly building sector The Government will present an action plan for energy efficiency, with the aim of reducing overall energy use in the building sector considerably by 2020.
En klimavennlig byggsektor Regjeringen legger fram en handlingsplan for energieffektivisering, med mål om å redusere samlet energibruk vesentlig i byggsektoren innen 2020.
Energy use requirements in the building regulations will be tightened to passive house standard in 2015 and to close to zero-energy standard by 2020.
Energikravene i byggforskriften skal skjerpes til passivhusnivå i 2015 og nesten nullenerginivå i 2020.
The use of oil-fired boilers by private households will be phased out.
Bruken av oljekjeler i husholdninger skal fases ut.
Enova will be able to award households grants for the replacement of oil-fired boilers.
Enova skal kunne gi tilskudd til husholdninger som vil skifte ut oljefyren.
The agricultural sector and carbon uptake by forests The Government will maintain or increase the carbon pool through an active, sustainable forest policy, including tree breeding, denser planting, reintroduction of the ban on felling young trees, and a general strengthening of forest conservation.
Klimatiltak i jordbruk og karbonopptak i skog Regjeringen vil opprettholde eller øke karbonlageret gjennom aktiv, bærekraftig skogpolitikk blant annet gjennom styrket innsats innen skogplanteforedling, økt plantetetthet og gjeninnføring av forbudet mot hogst av ungskog samt å styrke skogvernet.
The Government will present a strategy for increasing tree planting.
Regjeringen vil legge fram en strategi for økt skogplanting.
The Government will also contribute to the production of biogas in Norway, through farm-based installations and large facilities for the treatment of manure and waste.
Regjeringen vil også bidra til å utvikle biogass i Norge, blant annet gårdsbaserte biogassanlegg og store anlegg for sambehandling av husdyrgjødsel og avfall.
Increased international climate efforts The Government will work towards an ambitious global climate agreement.
Et styrket internasjonalt klimaarbeid Regjeringen vil arbeide for en bred og ambisiøs klimaavtale.
Within the overall framework for Norwegian development cooperation, which will be expanded further, the Government will consider increasing funding for Norway’s International Climate and Forest Initiative to more than NOK 3 billion a year.
Innenfor en samlet økende bistandsramme vil regjeringen vurdere å styrke klima- og skogprosjektet utover 3 milliarder kroner årlig.
The Government will contribute to cuts in emissions of short-lived climate drivers such as soot and methane through enhanced international cooperation.
Regjeringen vil bidra til reduserte utslipp av kortlivede klimadrivere som sot og metan gjennom et forsterket internasjonalt engasjement.
The Government will also contribute to the Green Climate Fund.
Regjeringen vil også bidra til det Grønne klimafondet.
Research and studies The Government will continue to scale up climate research.
Forskning og utredning Regjeringen vil fortsette å trappe opp klimaforskningen.
