Le CIRED a organisé un colloque le jeudi 20 mars 2014 à l'auditorium du CNRS. Cet événement a été produit dans le cadre du projet de recherche européen R&Dialogue, en association avec le laboratoire PACTE (U. Grenoble-CNRS) et avec le soutien de l'INSHS et de l'INSIS du CNRS. Ce document...

This study estimates the human cost of failures in the CCS industry in 2050, using the actuarial approach. The range of expected fatalities is assessed integrating all steps of the CCS chain: additional coal production, coal transportation, carbon capture, transport, injection and storage, based...

The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) in Vietnam is used way below its full potential. In spite of efforts to further CDM projects in the recent years, Vietnam still lags behind the comparable neighboring countries in term of registered CDM projects. Especially, though 2008 and 2009 have seen a...

Many economic sectors, like housing or transportation, are exposed to climate and likely to suffer efficiency losses when climate changes. The global economy is far from dematerialized yet, these sectors represent a significant fraction of the existing capital stock. Using an optimal growth...

Planning for the deployment of carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS), infrastructure must consider numerous uncertainties regarding where and how much CO2 is produced and where captured CO2 can be geologically stored. We used the SimCCS engineering-economic geospatial optimization models to...

This presentation has two parts. The first part is more theoretical. We will examine the definition of Integrated Assessment Models of Climate Change and identify their main aims. We will also have look at the differences between climate and socioeconomic models. The second part will be applied....

Ce article est issu de présentations et d'un débat menés lors d'un atelier de dialogue tenu le 27/04/2007 dans le cadre des projets de recherche SOCECO2 et METSTOR. Cet atelier de dialogue rassemblait des représentants des différents acteurs concernés par la problématique du captage et...

For diseases with more than one risk factor, the sum of probabilistic estimates of the number of cases attributable to each individual factor may exceed the total number of cases observed, especially when uncertainties about exposure and dose-response for some risk factors is high. In this study...

Current debates on climate mitigation emphasize the role of the inertia of the economic system. Our aim in this paper is to study more in depth how sectorally differentiated inertia impacts on optimal C02-emission abatement policies. Using the STARTS model, we show that optimal abatement levels...
