Abstract. This paper presents the new and now open-source version 2.1 of REgional Model INvestments Development (REMIND). REMIND, as an integrated assessment model (IAM), provides view global energy–economy–emissions system explores self-consistent transformation pathways. It describes a broad range possible futures their relation to technical socio-economic developments well policy choices. REMIND is multiregional incorporating economy detailed representation energy sector implemented in...
Closing the emissions gap between Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and global levels needed to achieve Paris Agreement's climate goals will require a comprehensive package of policy measures. National sectoral policies can help fill gap, but success stories in one country cannot be automatically replicated other countries. They need adapted local context. Here, we develop new Bridge scenario based on nationally relevant, short-term measures informed by interactions with experts....
Abstract The Paris Agreement does not only stipulate to limit the global average temperature increase well below 2 °C, it also calls for ‘making finance flows consistent with a pathway towards low greenhouse gas emissions’. Consequently, there is an urgent need understand implications of climate targets energy systems and quantify associated investment requirements in coming decade. A meaningful analysis must however consider near-term mitigation avoid overshoot goal. It include recently...
The application of rock powder on agricultural land to ameliorate soils and remove carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) from the air by chemical weathering is still subject many uncertainties. To elucidate effects grain size distribution soil partial pressure ( p CO levels uptake rates, two simple column experiments were designed filled nearly daily with an amount water that simulates humid tropical conditions, which prevail in areas known for being hotspots weathering. Multiple materials (dunite,...
Abstract Cost-effective achievement of the Paris Agreement’s long-term goals requires unanimous phase-out coal power generation by mid-century. However, continued investments in plants will make this transition difficult. India is one major countries with significant under construction and planned increase capacity. To ascertain likelihood consequences expansion for India’s future mitigation options, we use harmonised scenario results from national global models along projections various...
The employment implications of decarbonizing the energy sector have received far less attention than technology dimension transition, although being critical importance to policymakers. In this work, we adapt a methodology based on factors project future changes in quantity and composition direct supply jobs for two scenarios - (1) relatively weak emissions reductions as pledged nationally determined contributions (NDC) (2) stringent compatible with 1.5 °C target. We find that near-term...
Abstract Emission reduction from the coal-dominated power sector is vital for achieving China’s carbon mitigation targets. Although coal expansion has been slowed down due to cancellation of and delay in new construction, coal-based was responsible over one third energy-related CO 2 emissions by 2018. Moreover, with a technical lifetime 30 years, current investment could hinder until 2050. Therefore, it important examine whether planning aligns long-term climate This paper introduces...

Abstract Continued investment in coal embroils regions lock-ins, creating dependence and vested interests around thereby limiting the speed potential to switch cleaner energy. In India, four states contribute 70% of production, with surrounding mines also housing significant operating under-construction power stations. On other hand, west south India dominate current near-term renewable energy capacity growth, broadly following patterns highest resource potentials. We show that policies, by...
Abstract To help meet its near-term NDC goals and long-term net-zero 2070 target, the Government of India has planned to establish a Carbon Credit Trading Scheme (CCTS), i.e. domestic emission trading scheme (ETS). An ETS is an inherently cost-effective policy instrument for reduction, providing greatest flexibility reduce emissions from within across sectors. effective requires design features that consider country-specific challenges reflect role larger package achieve reduction. Within...
Abstract Closing the remaining emissions gap between Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and global levels needed to achieve Paris Agreement’s climate goals will likely require a comprehensive package of policy measures. National sectoral policies can help fill gap, but success stories in one country cannot be automatically replicated other countries, need adapted local context. Here, we develop new Bridge scenario based on nationally relevant measures informed by interactions with...
