Strengthen national climate policy implementation: Comparative empirical learning & creating linkage to climate finance – SNAPFI

About Our Project The project researches the implementation of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) in Brazil, Germany/EU, India, Indonesia and South Africa, by research-based policy advice and capacity building. The project will especially analyse policy and financial instruments that support the just transition to a climate-friendly pathway and that can contribute to the mobilization of...

Strengthen national climate policy implementation: Comparative empirical learning & creating linkage to climate finance – SNAPFI

Überblick Das Projekt erforscht die Umsetzung nationaler Klimaschutzbeiträge (NDCs) in Brasilien, Deutschland/der EU, Indien, Indonesien und Südafrika durch forschungsbasierte Politikberatung und Kapazitätsaufbau. Das Projekt wird insbesondere politische und finanzielle Instrumente analysieren, die eine Transformation zu einem klimafreundlichen Pfad unterstützen, sowie zur Mobilisierung privater...

Housing Market Fundamentals, Housing Quality and Energy Consumption: Evidence from Germany

This study investigates the relationship between regional housing market fundamentals and energy consumption. We argue that dwellings, in particularly rental properties, are not only consumer goods, but also constitute financial market assets. Properties are spatially fixed and traded in regional contexts, where real estate market characteristics like vacancy, income levels, and expectations determine ...

Leakage Protection for Carbon-Intensive Materials Post-2020

Climate protection is a global challenge that all countries have a common but differentiated responsibility to address. However, not all governments are willing to commit to targets of equal stringency, and individual countries may put different emphases on carbon pricing in their policy mix. Carbon prices may thus continue to differ over longer time horizons. Therefore, measures to protect production ...

Maßnahmen zum Schutz vor Carbon Leakage für CO₂-intensive Materialien im Zeitraum nach 2020

Klimaschutz ist eine globale Herausforderung, für deren Bewältigung alle Länder eine gemeinsame, aber differenzierte Verantwortung tragen. Einzelne Länder setzen in ihrem Politikmix jedoch unterschiedlich stark auf die Bepreisung von CO2, so dass sich die CO2-Preise in verschiedenen Ländern und Weltregionen noch auf längere Sicht unterscheiden können. Dann wären Maßnahmen zum Schutz vor der Verlagerung ...

Power System Impacts of Electric Vehicles in Germany: Charging with Coal or Renewables

We analyze the impacts of future scenarios of electric vehicles (EVs) on the German power system, drawing on different assumptions on the charging mode. We find that the impact on the load duration curve strongly differs between charging modes. In a fully user-driven mode, charging largely occurs during daytime and in the evening, when power demand is already high. User-driven charging may thus have ...

Global Warming, Technological Change and Trade in Carbon Energy: Challenge or Threat?

Is it possible to combat global climate change through North-to-South technology transfer even without a global climate treaty? Or do carbon leakage and the rebound effect imply that it is possible to take advantage of technological improvements under the umbrella of a global arrangement only? For answering these questions two possible states of the world are discussed: one, where more energy efficient ...

Biokohle in der Landwirtschaft als Klimaretter?

In Anbetracht des Klimawandels stehen wir vor großen Herausforderungen, Mittel und Wege zu finden, die Emissionen von Treibhausgasen wie Kohlendioxid (CO2), Methan (CH4) und Lachgas (N2O) zu reduzieren beziehungsweise diese Gase aus der Atmosphäre zu entfernen. Es wird verstärkt diskutiert, inwieweit aus Bio¬masse gewonnene Biokohle einen Beitrag zum Klimaschutz leisten kann, indem sie zur Kohlenstoffspeicherung ...

Modelling the Impact of Energy and Climate Policies

Climate change mitigation and the transformation to a global low-carbon economy is a pressing issue in policy discussions and international negotiations. The political debate is supported by the scientific community with a large number of projections, pathway simulations and scenario analyses of the global energy system and its development over the next decades. These studies are often based on numerical ...
