Conversion Necessities in Climate and Energy System Modelling
With this briefing we provide definitions for units and metrics commonly used in climate and energy modelling. We provide this briefing, because in climate and energy system modelling,the same data can be represented using a diverse set…
Identification of user requirements for an energy scenario database
Energy scenarios assist decision making regarding the transformation of the energy supply system. A multitude of scenarios exists in various formats. Thus, for scientists and policy stakeholders alike, it remains difficult to distinguish…
Impact Assessment on the Environmental, Social and Economic Effects of the 2030 Sectoral Targets in the Federal Government’s Climate Action Plan 2050
Summary
The analyses highlighted three main issues:
- The targets set for the various sectors can be achieved by means of a range of different strategies.
- From a macroeconomic perspective, all implementation strategies covered by the study are…
Modelling net zero emissions
Technical Note of the Climate Recon 2050 project
In the last years the aim of “reaching net zero emissions” gained political momentum. The Paris Agreement aims for “a balance between anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases in the second half of this…
EEA Report No 20/2018
Renewable energy in Europe - 2018: Recent growth and knock-on effects
This report introduces several methods the European Environment Agency (EEA) has developed for assessing and communicating early RES growth and the important knock-on effects that RES growth has on the energy sector and related areas.…
EEA Report No 17/2018
Approximated EU GHG inventory: proxy GHG estimates for 2017
This report provides GHG emissions estimates for the EU-28 plus Iceland for 2017. This Executive Summary includes an analysis of the important changes in GHG emissions across the EU, by sector and by Member State. Emissions for EU plus…
Early CO2 emission estimates for 2016 based on Eurostat monthly energy data
Annual project report
This report includes a description of the method used, a verification of the early CO2 emission estimates for the year 2015 and the calculation of the 2016 early CO2 emission estimates.
EEA Report No 23/2017
Renewable energy in Europe – 2017 Update: Recent growth and knock-on effects
This report outlines the progress renewable energy sources (RES) made in 2015 in the European Union (EU) as a whole, and at country, market sector and technology level. It also provides early European Environment Agency (EEA) estimates…
Approximated EU greenhouse gas inventory 2016
This briefing presents early ‘approximated’ (proxy) estimates of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for 2016 in the European Union (EU), as reported by Member States in July 2017. Detailed results are available in the report, Approximated…
Germany's Electric Future
Coal phase-out 2035
The planet has a limit and it shows us this forcefully. With record temperatures, melting poles, acidified seas. With dying species. Not least of all, humans are affected: every year the emissions of coal-fired power plants in Germany…
Early CO2 emission estimates for 2015 based on Eurostat monthly energy data
Annual project report
This report includes a description of the method used, a verification of the early CO2 emission estimates for the year 2014 by comparing them to the final GHG inventory CO2emission data submitted to the UNFCCC and the calculation of the…
EEA Report No 3/2017
Renewable energy in Europe 2017: recent growth and knock-on effects
Addressing climate change requires a globally coordinated, long-term response across all economic sectors. The 2015 Paris Agreement provides the framework for limiting global warming to less than 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial…
