Are biofuel mandates cost-effective?- An analysis of transport fuels and biomass usage to achieve emissions targets in the European energy system

M. Millinger et al.

Summary: Options for reducing emissions in the transport sector, especially the hard-to-electrify parts, are essential to meet ambitious emissions targets. While biofuels are currently the only renewable fuels available at scale, their high costs, lack of scalability, and competition for resources pose significant challenges. Policymakers may need to explore alternative options such as electrofuels and carbon dioxide removal to offset fossil fuel emissions.

Which second-best climate policies are best? Simulating cost- effective policy mixes for passenger vehicles

Chandan Bhardwaj et al.

Summary: In the case of Canada's light-duty vehicle sector, this study compares the effectiveness and mitigation costs of several policies, including carbon pricing, vehicle emission standards, and zero emissions vehicle mandates. The research finds that regulations are more expensive than carbon pricing alone, and at higher stringencies, emission standards and ZEV mandates have similar efficiency. The inclusion of a carbon tax in policy mixes can significantly improve cost-effectiveness. It is suggested that policymakers implement carbon pricing alongside regulations to achieve greenhouse gas reduction targets.

The near-optimal feasible space of a renewable power system model

Fabian Neumann et al.

Summary: Models for long-term investment planning in the power system typically return a single optimal solution based on cost assumptions, but there are often many near-optimal alternatives. Understanding common features across cost-effective alternatives can enhance policy advice and acknowledge uncertainties in the model structure.

Tradable performance standards in the transportation sector

Sonia Yeh et al.

Summary: Performance standards have a long history in environmental policy, aiming to promote innovation, address consumers' undervaluation of efficiency, and reduce externalities. Tradable performance standards (TPS) have been incorporated into U.S. transportation programs, showing high credit prices but low price effects on products, while providing strong incentives for innovation and technology transformation. Combining TPS with a carbon price may be necessary to achieve a sustained low-carbon transformation in the sector.

The role of hydropower reservoirs in deep decarbonization policy

Emil G. Dimanchev et al.

Summary: This study analyzes the role of hydropower reservoirs in deep decarbonization of power systems and models the impact on optimal planning decisions. It shows that expanding transmission access to hydro reservoirs reduces the need for fossil-fuel power plants, accelerates decarbonization, and decreases the need for Carbon Capture and Storage technology. The study highlights how hydro reservoirs serve as both short- and long-term energy storage resources and lower the cost of decarbonization non-linearly with increasing decarbonization targets.

Designing an effective climate-policy mix: accounting for instrument synergy

J. van den Bergh et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the impact of interactions between different climate policy instruments on overall emissions reduction, finding negative, zero or positive synergies. By formulating climate policy packages, negative effects are avoided and positive synergies are utilized. It is highlighted that alignment and harmonization of national policies in the international climate policy context may be essential for a politically feasible path to achieve global emission targets. The most promising packages involve combining innovation support and information provision with either a carbon tax and adoption subsidy, or with a carbon market.
