Meta-Modeling to Assess the Possible Future of Paris Agreement

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie, Alain Bernard

In the meta-modeling approach, one builds a numerically tractable dynamic optimization or game model in which the parameters are identified through statistical emulation of a detailed large scale numerical simulation model. In this paper, we show how this ...

Understanding nitrate formation in a world with less sulfate

Athanasios Nenes

SO2 emission controls, combined with modestly increasing ammonia, have been thought to generate aerosol with significantly reduced acidity for cases in which sulfate is partially substituted by nitrate. However, neither expectation agrees with decadal o ...

Assessment of balanced burden-sharing in the 2050 EU climate/energy roadmap: a metamodeling approach

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie

In this paper we propose a non-cooperative meta-game approach to designing and assessing climate agreements among 28 European countries that will be compatible with the EU 2050 climate target. Our proposed game model is identified through statistical emula ...

Influencing REDD+. Stakeholder participation in Ghana's REDD+ process

Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) is designed to curb the 12%-17% of global greenhouse emissions from forests. Though the mechanism emanated from international UN climate platform, the implementation is realized locally. T ...

Impact of uncertain CCS deployment on EU climate negotiations

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie

In this paper we propose a stochastic non-cooperative meta-game approach to assess the role of uncertain CCS deployment on climate agreements among 28 European countries. The game model is identified through statistical emulation of a large set of numerica ...

A stochastic dynamic game of the 2050 European Energy Roadmap with CCS

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie

Overview Climate policy is one of the corner stones of European Union (EU) policy. In 2011, the European Commission has defined a roadmap to low carbon economy in 2050 in which the Commission reconfirmed the EU objective of reducing European greenhouse gas ...

Border adjustment measures as instruments to reduce emissions leakage

Marc Vielle, Juan Carlos Altamirano Cabrera

We analyze carbon-related BAMs (focused on imports) as potential instruments to reduce emissions leakage. We combine an approach from international trade law with an economic approach. For the legal aspect we discuss the elements needed to include carbon-r ...

A Global Carbon Tax to Compensate Damage and Adaptation Costs

Philippe Thalmann, Marc Vielle, Juan Carlos Altamirano Cabrera

We analyze the implications of a global carbon tax on CO2 to finance the damage and adaptation costs of developing countries (DCs) using the computable general equilibrium model GEMINI-E3. We considered two options, first, that the tax is only applied to i ...

Acceptability of Climate Policy Instruments: Voluntary Approaches in Swiss Climate Policy

This work is carried out on behalf of the MIADAC project (Modelling Sectoral Climate Change Policies: Mitigation, Adaptation and Acceptance) of NCCR Climate and the ClimPol project (Climate Policy Making for Enhanced Technological and Institutional Innovat ...

Multi-objective Design Optimization of a NGCC Power Plant with CO2 Capture Using Life Cycle Assessment Results

François Maréchal

Multi-objective optimisation methodology is ideally suited to incorporate environmental objectives in the optimal design of energy conversion systems. It is also desirable to optimise life-cycle emissions rather than local emissions only. However, using LC ...
