This paper reviews the value and limits of energy scenarios and, in particular, to assess how the new low-carbon goals are reflected in the latest projections. This relatively new dimension of the scenarios means that in addition to the traditional factors like technology development, demographic, economic, political and institutional considerations, there is another aspect of the modern energy forecasts related to the coverage, timing, and stringency of policies to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants.

IRENA’s REmap programme determines the potential for countries, regions and the world to scale up renewables. The roadmap focuses not just on renewable power technologies, but also technology options in heating, cooling and transport. Based on these country driven results, REmap provides insights to policy and decision makers for areas in which action is needed.

The Deep Decarbonization Pathways Project (DDPP) is a global collaboration of energy research teams charting practical pathways to deeply reducing greenhouse gas emissions in their own countries. The initial results of this collaboration are reflected in reports on deep decarbonization pathways for Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan Mexico, Russia, South Africa, South Korea, United Kingdom and United States.

In this report Mercer have used scenario analysis and have adapted their prospective investment modelling tool to consider some of the potential future climate change pathways, the impact these may have from an economic perspective and the implications for investors.

This is a series of webpages detailing the range of technologies used in the capture, transport and storage of carbon dioxide that combine in a chain to provide Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) of emissions produced from the use of fossil fuels in electricity generation and industrial processes, preventing carbon dioxide from entering the atmosphere.

This paper shows how a leading Integrated Assessment Model can be used to estimate the impact of 21st century climate change on the present market value of global financial assets.

This report examines the systemic risk posed by a belated awareness about the importance of controlling emissions resulting in an abrupt implementation of quantity constraints on the use of carbon-intensive energy sources.

This paper by IEA presents an outlook for the market share of electric vehicles driven by government policy, innovation, costs and infrastructure deployment, including the levels of electric vehicle deployment in leading transition scenarios.

This report summarizes and analyzes the disclosures made through the 2016 CDP information request. It is aimed at companies facing water risks and opportunities in relation to climate change, and investors seeking to better understand how water issues might impact their portfolios.

This technical bulletin highlights findings related to climate risk arising from research conducted by SASB as part of its standards-setting process. The bulletin provides an overview of where climate-related risk is likely to be present in a typical portfolio, and what types of risk are present, along with the financial implications. It also summarizes the quality of existing disclosure on climate-related risk by SEC registrants.
