Factors underpinning future action - Update 2008

Das Projekt "Factors underpinning future action - Update 2008" wird/wurde gefördert durch: Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC). Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Ecofys Germany GmbH.For the UK Department of Energy and Climate Ecofys prepared country factsheets. The factsheets include greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, sectoral trends, emission reduction costs and climate policies for 61 countries. These new data are valuable references for the negotiations during the Climate Summit in Poznan.

CDM Market Support Study

Das Projekt "CDM Market Support Study" wird/wurde gefördert durch: kfw Bankengruppe. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Ecofys Germany GmbH.The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) suffers from a price level for certificates that went down to almost zero in a period less than a year. Additionally, no short-term price recovery is expected which could incentivise new projects. A risk is that market participants leave the market and the valuable CDM knowledge base on GHG mitigation and quantification will be lost. The CDM Market Support Study analyses the actual price vulnerability of projects and identifies various financing and project type opportunities for project developers and for (institutional public) investors who intent to support the CDM project continuation and the further development of the CDM framework. The study also shows how the current regulatory framework of the CDM can be maintained by transferring it to future mechanisms. This could be a chance to develop the CDM from a pure market-based instrument towards an integrated part within future market-based and also policy-based instruments. The CDM can provide useful components to currently discussed or tested instruments such as the NMM (New Market Mechanism), the FVA (Framework for Varios Approaches), NAMAs (Nationally Appropriate Mitigation Actions) or results-based financing approaches. The study was financed by the German KfW-managed PoA Support Centre . The aim of the PoA-Support-Centre Germany is to support the development of Programmes of Activities (PoAs) under CDM and JI (Joint Implementation) worldwide.

G8 Climate Scorecards

Das Projekt "G8 Climate Scorecards" wird/wurde gefördert durch: Allianz SE / Umweltstiftung WWF Deutschland. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Ecofys Germany GmbH.The report concludes with a global cumulative GHG emission cap for the period from 2010 till 2050. It outlines mid-term and long-term cumulative emission allowances for key countries under the three equity approaches and trajectories for these countries to keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius. The objective of the report is to initiate a constructive debate among and foster long-term commitments of the parties while moving towards a fair, ambitious and binding Copenhagen agreement. The report was written on request of WWF.

EU Climate Policy Tracker

Das Projekt "EU Climate Policy Tracker" wird/wurde gefördert durch: European Climate Foundation. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Ecofys Germany GmbH.The EU Climate Policy Tracker (EU CPT) presents up-to-date developments in climate and energy policies in the EU-27. Although government policy is the single most influential driver behind the fight against climate change, there is limited information about the status of the policies that influence increases or decreases in emissions. The EU Climate Policy Tracker (EU CPT) is intended to bridge this gap. The project holds two references in focus at the same time: a 2050 goal of near total decarbonisation, and our current policy trajectory. A uniquely developed scoring method, modelled on appliance efficiency labels (A-G), gives an indication of how Member States are doing compared to a low-carbon policy package. This results in aggregated scores, supported with a rich background of information, for all Member States, at EU level, and for different economic sectors. The project is intended to be a resource for those seeking information, a means of sharing best practice, and a way of holding policymakers to account. In 2011 we updated our initial rating from November 2010. The findings of 2010 showed that the average score across the EU was an E, indicating that the level of effort needed to treble to be on track to reach the 2050 vision. Looking at the developments in 2011, we can see that there has been considerable activity in many countries, though the overall scoring has generally remained constant: positive actions are counteracted by negative developments or budget cuts. The EU CPT is a joint project by Ecofys and WWF. The project is funded by the European Climate Foundation. Visit the EU Climate Policy Tracker on: www.climatepolicytracker.eu.

Towards a Post-2012 Climate Change Regime

Das Projekt "Towards a Post-2012 Climate Change Regime" wird/wurde gefördert durch: Kommission der Europäischen Gemeinschaften Brüssel. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Ecofys Germany GmbH.Commissioned by the European Union, Ecofys performed an exploration of possible approaches to the UNFCCCs Post-2012 negotiation process. Key elements of the report include a three-stage agreement on emission reductions of Kyoto-gases (excluding LUCF) and options towards agreement on LUCF/deforestation (with a goal of reducing emissions by 10 to 20Prozent), adapting to climate change, and the joint development of various technologies for meeting countries' long-term emission reduction targets.

Economic/Climate Recovery Scorecards

Das Projekt "Economic/Climate Recovery Scorecards" wird/wurde gefördert durch: E3G. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Ecofys Germany GmbH.As global leaders head to the G20 summit to consider solutions to the current global economic crisis, a new report prepared by Ecofys and Germanwatch for WWF and E3G reveals that many of the economic recovery packages being discussed are a missed opportunity in terms of stimulating a green recovery, and actually run the risk of locking the world into a high-carbon future. The report provides the most detailed and comprehensive analysis to date of the proposed 'stimulus' packages of five key countries - France, Germany, Italy, the UK and the US - as well as the package agreed by the European Union as a whole.

Mapping Carbon Pricing Initiatives - developments and prospects

Das Projekt "Mapping Carbon Pricing Initiatives - developments and prospects" wird/wurde gefördert durch: World Bank. Es wird/wurde ausgeführt durch: Ecofys Germany GmbH.The uncertainty surrounding the future of existing carbon markets in recent years has prevented valuable resources from being channeled to low-carbon investments, particularly from the private sector. Additionally, the prospect of a coordinated international approach to carbon pricing will remain uncertain for several years. However, the report reveals, that regional, national and sub-national carbon pricing initiatives are proliferating. Despite weak international carbon markets, both developed and developing countries are mainstreaming carbon pricing initiatives in national climate change and development strategies. This report prepared by the World Bank together with Ecofys, replaces the State and Trends of the Carbon Market series. Unlike in previous years, the report does not provide a quantitative, transaction-based analysis of the international carbon market as current market conditions invalidate any attempt and interest to undertake such analysis. The development of national and sub-national carbon pricing initiatives in an increasing number of countries calls for a different focus. This report maps existing and emerging carbon pricing initiatives around the world, hence its new title. It analyses common considerations across the initiatives, such as setting the appropriate ambition level, implementing price stabilization mechanisms, using offsets, and taking concrete moves towards linking schemes together. Feel free to watch below webcast by Alyssa Gilbert to familiarise yourself with the main outcomes of the study.
