Die energetische Sanierung von Wohngebäuden verspricht ein hohes Potenzial für den Klimaschutz. Zu den wesentlichen Initiativen der Bundesregierung zählt das CO2-Gebäudesanierungs programm der KfW, mit dem die energetische Sanierung von Gebäuden finanziell gefördert werden soll. Für eine...

Future costs of low carbon energy technologies differ widely depending on assumptions and methods used. This report addresses this gap by presenting internally consistent trajectories of capital investment costs to 2050 for selected low carbon energy technologies. In order to do so, it combines...

This document complements the Global Energy and Climate Outlook 2018 report. It provides the detailed GHG and energy balances for the Reference, the central 2°C and 1.5°C scenarios described in the main report. The results displayed in this report have been produced with the global energy &...

The energy sector accounts for the lion's share (55 %) of greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union (EU). While EU emissions had fallen by 22.1 % in 2015 compared with 1990, and continue to fall, the bloc's economy grew by 27 % over that period. Since the Renewable Energy Directive (RED)...

This study shows that achieving the climate change mitigation target of staying below 2°C temperature rise is possible technically - thanks to an acceleration of decarbonisation trends, an increased electrification of final demand and large changes in the primary energy mix that include a phase...

The slowdown of renewable energy deployment is a concern and needs to be avoided in the time the EU is aiming higher shares of renewables in 2030. Through a cost-optimal approach the EU ought to double in 2030 the current share of renewables in electricity sector. The important changes in...
