Figure 8.11: Reference scenario and mitigation potential for global urban areas in the residential and commercial building, transport, waste, and material production sectors. The top red line indicates the reference scenario where no further emissions reduction efforts are taken, while the bottom dark line indicates the combined potential of reducing emissions across the sectors displayed. Wedges are provided for potential emissions savings associated with decarbonising residential buildings, commercial buildings, transport, waste, and materials as indicated in the legend. The shaded areas that take place among the wedges with lines indicate contributions from decarbonisation of electricity supply.
