Full title : Decarbonizing the Global Energy System
To stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations at an equivalent doubling, CO2 emissions must be limited to 5 PgC y in 2050, compared to 8 PgC y today. This will require the decarbonization of world energy supply, in which fossil fuels, which today account for 85% of energy supply, are replaced by carbon-free sources. Only five sources are capable of supplying a substantial fraction of the required ...
متن کاملPolicies for decarbonizing a liberalized power sector
Given the agreed urgency of decarbonizing electricity and the need to guide decentralized private decisions, an adequate and credible carbon price appears essential. The paper defines and quantifies the useful concept of the break-even carbon price for mature zero-carbon electricity investments. It appears an attractive alternative given the difficulty of measuring the social cost of carbon, bu...
متن کاملDecarbonizing electricity generation with intermittent sources of energy
We examine public policies and technological solutions that aim to decarbonize electricity production by replacing fossil fuel energy by intermittent renewable sources, namely wind and solar power. We consider a model of investment and production with two sources of energy: one is clean but intermittent (wind or solar), whereas the other one is reliable but polluting (thermal power). Intermitte...
متن کاملEverything Computes
The emergence of complexity in our universe is caused by generative processes that confound us. Collective behaviours going under names such as evolution, swarming, embryogenesis, thought, and emergence produce results that seem counterintuitive (or downright impossible) when the individual elements in the collective are examined. In this seminar I explore the causes of complex behaviour in gen...
متن کاملEverything flows
S ometimes, an important aspect of the world is so obvious that we simply take it for granted. We rarely discuss it or even think about it explicitly. In our opinion, the processual nature of reality— that it is fundamentally a sequence of interconnected occurrences or events—is one such aspect: we continually experience change, but tend instead to explain the world in terms of static things. F...
