RMI Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC). Communicated to the UNFCCC on 21 July 2015. RMI commits to a quantified economy wide-target to reduce its emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) to 32% below 2010 levels by 2025. RMI communicates, as an indicative target, its intention to reduce its emissions of GHGs to 45% below 2010 levels by 2030. These targets progress beyond RMIs Copenhagen pledge, and are based on the more rigorous data in RMIs forthcoming Second National Communication.
This will require a significant improvement in energy efficiency and uptake of renewables in particular solar and biofuels, as well as transformational technology such as Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC).
RMI submitted their Intended nationally determined contributions (INDC) to the UNFCCC Secretariat on the 21st of July 2015.
No further revisions were undertaken and the same document was endorsed and submitted as the First nationally determined contributions on 22nd April 2016.
