Low-carbon technology cooperation in the climate regime
Low-carbon technology cooperation for climate change mitigation, is needed to address the challenge of scaling up development and transfer of low-carbon technology, with the ultimate aim of reducing…
Managing the Low-Carbon Transition - From Model Results to Policies
The ultimate goal of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is “the stabilization of greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent…
Road pricing and agglomeration economies: a new methodology to estimate indirect effects applied to the Netherlands
A congestion charging scheme may be a good alternative for infrastructure investment to improve the allocation of road usage over different user groups, thereby enhancing economic welfare. However, a…
Low stabilization scenarios and implications for major world regions from an integrated assessment perspective
It is not possible to unambiguously translate the objective of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (i.e. to avoid dangerous anthropogenic climate change) into greenhouse gas (GHG)…
The Economics of Low Stabilization: Model Comparison of Mitigation Strategies and Costs
The objective of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is "stabilization of greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous…
Research has shown that extensive use of bio-energy could be a crucial factor in achieving stabilization at low atmospheric greenhouse gas concentration levels. First, bio-energy may play a key role…
Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the Netherlands 1990 - 2008
This report contains trend analysis of emissions of greenhouse gases in the period 1990-2008, based on documentation of the methods, emission factors and data sources. In addition, an analysis of so…
Bioenergy revisited: key factors in global potentials of bioenergy
The growing use of bioenergy goes hand in hand with a heated public debate, in which conflicting claims are made regarding the amount of biomass that can be sustainably used for this purpose. This…
Nationally appropriate mitigation actions (NAMAs) in developing countries: Challenges and oppertunities
It is increasingly evident that, in order to avoid dangerous climate change, greenhouse gas emissions need to be reduced – not only in the industrialised countries, but also in the developing world…
Uncertainty from Model Calibration: Applying a New Method to Transport Energy Demand Modelling
Uncertainties in energy demand modelling originate from both limited understanding of the real-world system and a lack of data for model development, calibration and validation. These uncertainties…
