  • Implications of overshoot for climate mitigation strategies

    Open AccessMassimo Tavoni, Nico Bauer et al.ARTICLENature Climate Change2026

  • Coal transitions—part 2

    Open AccessJan C Minx, Jérôme Hilaire et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2024

    A rapid phase-out of unabated coal use is essential to limit global warming to below 2 °C. This review presents a comprehensive assessment of coal transitions in mitigation scenarios consistent with the Paris Agreement, using data from more than 1500 publicly available scenarios generated by more than 30 integrated assessment models. Our ensemble analysis uses clustering techniques to categorize coal transition pathways in models and bridges evid…

  • Coal-exit alliance must confront freeriding sectors to propel Paris-aligned momentum

  • Exploring risks and benefits of overshooting a 1.5 °C carbon budget over space and time

    Open AccessNico Bauer, David Keller et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2023

    Temperature targets of the Paris Agreement limit global net cumulative emissions to very tight carbon budgets. The possibility to overshoot the budget and offset near-term excess emissions by net-negative emissions is considered economically attractive as it eases near-term mitigation pressure. While potential side effects of carbon removal deployment are discussed extensively, the additional climate risks and the impacts and damages have attract…

  • A sustainable development pathway for climate action within the UN 2030 Agenda

  • Exploring the possibility space

    Open AccessIlkka Keppo, Isabela Butnar et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2021

    Integrated assessment models (IAMs) have emerged as key tools for building and assessing long term climate mitigation scenarios. Due to their central role in the recent IPCC assessments, and international climate policy analyses more generally, and the high uncertainties related to future projections, IAMs have been critically assessed by scholars from different fields receiving various critiques ranging from adequacy of their methods to how thei…

  • Carbon dioxide removal technologies are not born equal

    Open AccessJessica Strefler, Nico Bauer et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2021

    Technologies for carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the atmosphere have been recognized as an important part of limiting warming to well below 2 °C called for in the Paris Agreement. However, many scenarios so far rely on bioenergy in combination with carbon capture and storage as the only CDR technology. Various other options have been proposed, but have scarcely been taken up in an integrated assessment of mitigation pathways. In this study we a…

  • The shared socio-economic pathway (SSP) greenhouse gas concentrations and their extensions to 2500

    Open AccessMalte Meinshausen, Zebedee Nicholls et al.ARTICLEGeoscientific Model Development2020

    Anthropogenic increases in atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations are the main driver of current and future climate change. The integrated assessment community has quantified anthropogenic emissions for the shared socio-economic pathway (SSP) scenarios, each of which represents a different future socio-economic projection and political environment. Here, we provide the greenhouse gas concentrations for these SSP scenarios – using the reduced-c…

  • Potential and costs of carbon dioxide removal by enhanced weathering of rocks

    Open AccessJessica Strefler, Thorben Amann et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    The chemical weathering of rocks currently absorbs about 1.1 Gt CO2 a(-1) being mainly stored as bicarbonate in the ocean. An enhancement of this slow natural process could remove substantial amounts of CO2 from the atmosphere, aiming to offset some unavoidable anthropogenic emissions in order to comply with the Paris Agreement, while at the same time it may decrease ocean acidification. We provide the first comprehensive assessment of economic c…

  • Between Scylla and Charybdis

    Open AccessJessica Strefler, Nico Bauer et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    There are major concerns about the sustainability of large-scale deployment of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies. It is therefore an urgent question to what extent CDR will be needed to implement the long term ambition of the Paris Agreement. Here we show that ambitious near term mitigation significantly decreases CDR requirements to keep the Paris climate targets within reach. Following the nationally determined contributions (NDCs) unti…

  • Shared Socio-Economic Pathways of the Energy Sector – Quantifying the Narratives

    Open AccessNico Bauer, Katherine Calvin et al.ARTICLEGlobal Environmental Change2016Citada por: 23Referencias: 16

    Energy is crucial for supporting basic human needs, development and well-being. The future evolution of the scale and character of the energy system will be fundamentally shaped by socioeconomic conditions and drivers, available energy resources, technologies of energy supply and transformation, and end-use energy demand. However, because energy-related activities are significant sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and other environmental a…

  • The Shared Socioeconomic Pathways and their energy, land use, and greenhouse gas emissions implications

    Open AccessKeywan Riahi, Detlef P Van Vuuren et al.ARTICLEGlobal Environmental Change2016Citada por: 311Referencias: 12

    This paper presents the overview of the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) and their energy, land use, and emissions implications. The SSPs are part of a new scenario framework, established by the climate change research community in order to facilitate the integrated analysis of future climate impacts, vulnerabilities, adaptation, and mitigation. The pathways were developed over the last years as a joint community effort and describe plausible…

  • Fossil-fueled development (SSP5)

    Open AccessElmar Kriegler, Nico Bauer et al.ARTICLEGlobal Environmental Change2016Citada por: 39Referencias: 4

    This paper presents a set of energy and resource intensive scenarios based on the concept of Shared Socio-Economic Pathways (SSPs). The scenario family is characterized by rapid and fossil-fueled development with high socio-economic challenges to mitigation and low socio-economic challenges to adaptation (SSP5). A special focus is placed on the SSP5 marker scenario developed by the REMIND-MAgPIE integrated assessment modeling framework. The SSP5 …

  • Making or breaking climate targets

    Open AccessElmar Kriegler, Keywan Riahi et al.ARTICLETechnological Forecasting and…2014

    This study explores a situation of staged accession to a global climate policy regime from the current situation of regionally fragmented and moderate climate action. The analysis is based on scenarios in which a front runner coalition – the EU or the EU and China – embarks on immediate ambitious climate action while the rest of the world makes a transition to a global climate regime between 2030 and 2050. We assume that the ensuing regime involv…

  • The global economic long-term potential of modern biomass in a climate-constrained world

    Open AccessDavid J Klein, David Klein et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2014

    Low-stabilization scenarios consistent with the 2 °C target project large-scale deployment of purpose-grown lignocellulosic biomass. In case a GHG price regime integrates emissions from energy conversion and from land-use/land-use change, the strong demand for bioenergy and the pricing of terrestrial emissions are likely to coincide. We explore the global potential of purpose-grown lignocellulosic biomass and ask the question how the supply price…

  • CO2 emission mitigation and fossil fuel markets

    Open AccessNico Bauer, Valentina Bosetti et al.ARTICLETechnological Forecasting and…2013

    This paper explores a multi-model scenario ensemble to assess the impacts of idealized and non-idealized climate change stabilization policies on fossil fuel markets. Under idealized conditions climate policies significantly reduce coal use in the short- and long-term. Reductions in oil and gas use are much smaller, particularly until 2030, but revenues decrease much more because oil and gas prices are higher than coal prices. A first deviation f…
