Transportation accounts for a substantial share of CO2 emissions, and decarbonizing transport will be necessary to … limit global warming to below 2°C. Due to persistent reliance on fossil fuels, it is posited that transport is more … difficult to decarbonize than other sectors. We test this hypothesis by comparing long-term transport energy demand and emission …

The transition to a zero-emission car fleet is a pivotal element of Europe's decarbonisation strategy. Italy's participation in this trajectory is significant, given the size of its car fleet. Currently, only battery electric (BEVs) and hydrogen-powered are considered zero-emission vehicles. The...

With a focus on establishing whether climate targets can be met under different personal transport scenarios we … introduce a transport sector representing the use and profile of light domestic vehicles (LDVs) into the integrated assessment …

This paper aims at characterizing the conditions of wind power deployment in order to infer a carbon price level that would provide wind power with comparable advantage over fossil fuel technologies as effective wind support policies. The analysis is conducted on Danish data from 2000 to 2010,...

We develop and discuss the three pathways to European Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading: a top-down scheme based on the Kyoto Protocol of the UNFCCC, a bottom-up scheme linking national trading systems of EU Member States, and an EU-wide regional scheme based on the founding principles of the...

Under the 1997 Kyoto Protocol, economies in transition are eligible for both emissions trading (Article 17) and joint implementation (Article 6). Guiding rules for implementing these mechanisms were decided through the Marrakech Accords in November 2001. These countries may benefit substantially...

The objective of this paper is to assess the likely allocation effects of the current climate protection strategy as it is laid out in the National Allocation Plans (NAPs) for the European Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS). The multi-regional, multi-sectoral CGEmodel DART is used to simulate the...
