Investigating national differences in fossil fuel phase-out strategies

Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: The COP28 in Dubai concluded the first global stocktake, highlighting the need for accelerated decarbonization efforts through a just, orderly, and equitable transition away from fossil fuels. Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) provide insights on how to decarbonize economies in line with the Paris Agreement while minimizing costs. However, they provide results only for large economic aggregates. We downscale IAMs results to the country level, to provide guidance on how to align national fossil fuel phase out strategies with the Paris Agreement.
