Input factor substitution under climate-neutral pathways

Philippe Thalmann, Marc Vielle, Fleance George Cocker

Achieving climate neutrality will require clean alternatives to entirely replace fossil energy carriers and technologies in most economic sectors. However, standard computable general equilibrium (CGE) frameworks, which are widely used to analyse climate p ...

A robust asymptotic control model to analyze climate policy with CDR options

Marc Vielle

A three-region optimal economic growth model is proposed to represent the global energy transition to net-zero emissions when carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies are available. The main features of the model are (i) the representation of the economy ...

Key Issues for Long-Term Climate Policy Design in GCC Countries with a Focus on Qatar

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

This chapter explores the challenges and options of designing an efficient long-term global climate policy for Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. The authors start by reviewing the exposure of GCC countries to climate risks and the mitigation and ad ...

Industrial European regions at risk within the Fit for 55: How far implementing CBAM can mitigate?

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

The transition to a low-carbon economy can create new job opportunities but may cause job displacement in some sectors that heavily rely on fossil fuels. In order to gain a balanced appraisal in understanding the broader consequences of climate policies, t ...

A robust infinite-horizon optimal control approach to climate economics

Marc Vielle

An infinite-horizon optimal control paradigm is proposed to model the global energy transition to zero-net emissions when carbon dioxide removal (CDR) and electric fuel (E-Fuel) technologies become available. Infinite-horizon optimal trajectories for conve ...

The impacts of decarbonization pathways on Sustainable Development Goals in the European Union

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

Climate action to achieve the Paris Agreement should respect the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Here, we use an integrated assessment modelling framework comprising nine climate policy models and quantify the impacts of decarbonisation pathw ...

Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism in the Transition to Net-Zero Emissions: Collective Implementation and Distributional Impacts

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

As an instrument to minimize carbon leakage, the effects and feasibility of Carbon Border Adjustments Mechanism (CBAM) will depend on multiple design options. While the EU has committed to introducing CBAM as part of its green climate deal, pursuing climat ...

Expert perceptions of game-changing innovations towards net zero

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

Current technological improvements are yet to put the world on track to net-zero, which will require the uptake of transformative low-carbon innovations to supplement mitigation efforts. However, the role of such innovations is not yet fully understood; so ...

Reaching Paris Agreement goal through carbon dioxide removal development: A compact OR model

Alain Haurie, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

A compact operations research (OR) model is proposed to analyse the prospects of meeting the Paris Agreement targets when direct air capture technologies can be used or not. The main features of the model are (i) the representation of the economy and energ ...

A multi-model analysis of the EU’s path to net zero

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

The European Union (EU) recently ratcheted its climate ambition to net-zero emissions by 2050, with a milestone of 55% emissions cuts in 2030. This study carries out a model inter-comparison to assess the EU’s path, from “Fit for 55” in 2030 to an intermed ...

GCC Countries Strategic Options in a Global Transition to Zero-Net Emissions

Alain Haurie, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

Using a multi-level perspective approach combined with top-down macroeconomic models, we analyze the situation of the GCC countries in the perspective of a global transition to zero-net emissions before the end of the century. Based on these analyses, we p ...

A multimodel analysis of post-Glasgow climate targets and feasibility challenges

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

The COP26 Glasgow process resulted in many countries strengthening their 2030 emissions reduction targets and announcing net-zero pledges for 2050–2070 but it is not clear how this would impact future warming. Here, we use four diverse integrated assessmen ...

A post-COVID-19 economic assessment of the Chilean NDC revision

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

intensity-based emissions reductions to an effective emissions target. This paper aims to assess the economic and environmental impacts of this change in the current context of high uncertainty Chile faces with social protests and the COVID-19 pandemic. Us ...

Technological substitution under climate-neutral pathways

Marc Vielle, Fleance George Cocker

Achieving climate neutrality will require clean alternatives to entirely replace fossil technologies in most economic sectors. However, standard Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) frameworks, which are widely used to analyse climate policies and rely on ...

The EU carbon border adjustment mechanism: implications on Brazilian energy intensive industries

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

As an instrument supporting the realization of EU climate neutrality targets by 2050 and encouraging decarbonization outside its borders, the current proposed Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is facing opposition from some countries. Focusing on B ...

Making the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism Acceptable and Climate Friendly for Least Developed Countries

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

Implementation of CBAM to support EU climate neutrality by 2050 has raised several concerns. As the mechanism aims to minimise leakage through equal fairness in global mitigation, imposing carbon tariffs on the EU's imports of energy- intensive goods could ...
