CONTRIBUTION DETERMINEE AU NIVEAU NATIONALE - TCHAD

Chad's updated NDC aims for a 19.3% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 compared to a business-as-usual scenario, primarily through energy efficiency and reforestation. The plan identifies agriculture as the dominant emission source (95%) and emphasizes extreme vulnerability to droughts and floods. Implementation requires an estimated 6.7 billion USD for mitigation and between 5 and 14 billion USD for adaptation, with a heavy reliance on international financial support.

• Chad aims to reduce its cumulative greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 88,350 kt CO2eq by 2030, representing a global mitigation objective of 19.3% compared to the reference scenario.
• Agriculture is the primary source of GHG emissions in Chad, accounting for approximately 95% of the total emissions in 2018, with livestock activities contributing 79% of the sector's emissions.
• The investment required to implement the NDC's mitigation actions is estimated at 6,700.2 million USD, with 94% of this amount (6,285.4 million USD) dependent on international financial support under the conditional scenario.
• Adaptation funding needs are estimated using a top-down approach at 3% of GDP, projecting costs of over 375 million USD in 2021, rising to 645 million USD annually by 2030, for a total period cost of over 5.002 billion USD.
• Chad is identified as one of the most climate-vulnerable countries globally, characterized as a climate 'hotspot' and ranked as the most endangered among 186 evaluated countries in a climate vulnerability study.
• The conditional mitigation scenario relies heavily on the energy sector and carbon sinks, including the construction of solar plants (totaling 640 MW by 2030), wind power (100 MW), and a commitment to reforest 5 million hectares by 2030 under the Bonn Challenge.
• Climate projections for Chad indicate a likely temperature increase of 1°C to 1.5°C by 2030 depending on the scenario, while precipitation is projected to increase by 10% to 20%, particularly in northern regions.
• Gender inequality is a significant factor in climate vulnerability in Chad, as women have unequal access to education and land, and their role in ecological management is often unrecognized.
