Europe’s Climate Target for 2050: An Assessment
Intereconomics, 2021 Decarbonisation is harder for transport, heating, industry and agriculture. That is, a doubling of the decarbonisation rate requires much more than a doubling of the policy effort. The low-hanging fruit has been picked.

Decomposition for Decarbonisation: Evaluation of Decarbonisation Programmes
Science Progress, 2016 The Kaya Identity has long been used as a simple yet rigorous way to assess options in energy and climate policy. Its shortcoming is that it fails to address the very wide range of non-energy factors. This paper presents a simple extension of the Kaya Identity – the Emissions Quantification Tool or EQT – that incorporates the missing factors while ...

Measuring the progress and impacts of decarbonising British electricity [PDF]
, 2016 Britain’s ambitious carbon targets require that electricity be immediately and aggressively decarbonised, so it is reassuring to report that electricity sector emissions have fallen 46% in the three years to June 2016, their lowest since 1960. This paper

Precombustion Decarbonisation Processes [PDF]
Oil & Gas Science and Technology, 2005 In precombustion decarbonisation, the CO2 is captured before burning the fuel. The method has many parallels to the method of producing hydrogen which is a mature technology. Technology performances are given for gas-based and coal-based processes.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Four‐point bending tests are conducted in an argon atmosphere on commercial MgO‐C brick grades with and without MgO‐C recyclate from room temperature up to 1300 °C. No detrimental effect of the MgO‐C recyclates on bending strength is found. Instead, a decisive influence of the total carbon content is observed, with lower total carbon contents ...
