Defining deep decarbonization pathways for Switzerland: an economic evaluation

Philippe Thalmann, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

This paper aims at simulating deep decarbonization pathways for Switzerland. The analysis relies on macro-economic simulations of GEMINI-E3, a computable general equilibrium model used to assess the energy and economic impacts of a Swiss low carbon society ...

From COP21 pledges to a fair 2°C pathway

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie

At COP21, about 160 countries proposed the so-called INDCs that define GHG abatement objectives by 2030. While encouraging, these commitments are not ambitious enough to achieve the 2°C threshold by 2100, and further negotiations are needed for sharing the ...

Updated emissions scenarios without measures, 1990-2035

Philippe Thalmann, Marc Vielle

The goal of this study is to estimate the net impact of all policies and measures implemented in the context of the Swiss energy and climate policies on CO2 emissions from combustion processes between 1990 and 2035. The study provides a projection of CO2 e ...

Materials Genome in Action: Identifying the Performance Limits of Physical Hydrogen Storage

Berend Smit, Cory Matthew Simon, Kathryn Suzanne Deeg

The Materials Genome is in action: the molecular codes for millions of materials have been sequenced, predictive models have been developed, and now the challenge of hydrogen storage is targeted. Renewably generated hydrogen is an attractive transportation ...

CO2 evasion from a steep, high gradient stream network: importance of seasonal and diurnal variation in aquatic pCO2 and gas transfer

Tom Ian Battin, Amber Joy Ulseth

Surface waters contribute substantially to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to the atmosphere. However, global estimates remain uncertain due to methodological difficulties, such as in precisely estimating gas transfer in steep upland streams. Here, we addre ...

The impact of the European Emission Trading Scheme on multiple measures of economic performance*

Marianna Marino, Claudia Pellegrin

The European emission trading scheme (EU ETS) has introduced a price for carbon and has thus led to an additional cost for companies that are regulated by the scheme. There is a growing body of empirical literature that investigates the effects of the EU E ...

Towards a pre-design method for low carbon architectural strategies

Marilyne Andersen, Thomas Bernard Paul Jusselme, Endrit Hoxha, Arianna Brambilla, Stefano Cozza

To face climate change, Switzerland proposes the 2050 energy strategy by fixing greenhouse gas (GHG) emission targets for the built environment. Designers will then have to increase operating performances while inimizing embodied impacts. This represents a ...

Carbon fate in a large temperate human-impacted river system: Focus on benthic dynamics

Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier

Fluvial networks play an important role in regional and global carbon (C) budgets. The Seine River, from the Paris urban area to the entrance of its estuary (220km), is studied here as an example of a large human-impacted river system subject to temperate ...
