From: Quantifying the economic impact of changes in energy demand for space heating and cooling systems under varying climatic scenarios

Figure 3

GDP changes in 2100 and RCP8.5 (relative to the scenario without climate change) due to changes in the demand for energy services for heating (HDD) and cooling (CDD) degree days at the global and regional levels. Note: “Total” considers the changes in both HDD and CDD, while the other two cases only consider changes in either HDD or CDD, respectively. Boxes and lines show the uncertainty range across the five GCMs. Boxes represent the first-third quartile range and the plain line indicates the median. See Fig. 2 for regional codes.
