- Publication 16 August 2021 Too complicated and impractical? An exploratory study on the role of energy system models in municipal decision-making processes in Denmark Energy system models can contribute to the transition to low-carbon energy systems by helping devise pathways and calculate costs of energy policies and targets. As such, they are intended to provide support for energy planning, especially at the national level. Since energy system models are often developed outside urban contexts, their municipal policy relevance cannot be taken for granted. It is still unclear to what extent and how energy system models are applied to create municipal energy…
- Publication 16 August 2021 Blockchain application for the paris agreement carbon market mechanism-a decision framework and architecture This paper evaluates the suitability of blockchain technology for the Article 6.2 carbon market mechanism of the Paris Agreement. The bottom-up approach of the Paris Agreement causes challenges to the robust accounting of mitigation outcomes and information asymmetry, both of which result from a high number of heterogeneous emission accounting systems. Blockchain is an innovative technology that can act as an aggregation platform for these fragmented systems while enhancing transparency and…
- Publication 16 August 2021 Incorporating Energy Service Companies in Nationally Determined Contributions: The potential of ESCOs for meeting the climate goals in the Paris Agreement Energy efficiency is central to efforts to make the transition to clean energy, achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and limit the average global temperature increase to 1.5˚C by the turn of the century. Energy efficiency is a cost-effective means of reducing 40% of the carbon emissions required to meet the objectives of the Paris Agreement. As of 2018, there are 789 million people without access to electricity, 2.8 billion without access to clean cooking and more than a billion at high…
