This paper proposes an integrated future energy system for Belgium, combining remote renewable energy hubs with a CCUS chain. It aims to achieve decarbonization and stable energy supply by integrating renewable energy transport and storage …

Schlacke S.

This paper analyzes the implementation of the EU Climate Law through the 'Fit for 55' package, examining policy measures and their alignment with emission reduction targets, providing an overview of EU climate policy.

Binsted M.

This paper analyzes technology pathways for carbon management to achieve a U.S. economy-wide net-zero emissions goal. It evaluates the role of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) and other technologies from technical and economi…

Using a database of 120 mature technologies, this study shows that technology diffusion follows a universal S-curve shape and that a Bayesian Bertalanffy-Richards process provides accurate forecasts. Predictions for solar PV and wind sugges…

Nguyen QL

This paper examines whether multilateral climate finance rewards carbon pricing adoption per se or only stringent policies. Using a staggered difference-in-differences design on 2000-2023 panel data, it finds that high-stringency adoption s…
