The Netherlands commits to shifting towards electric propulsion and alternative fuels in transport sectors.
Reductions in the greenhouse gas (GHG) intensity of passenger and freight transportation are possible through adoption of fuel-saving technologies, demand switching between modes, and large-scale electrification of fleets, in addition to other actions.
This paper discusses the extent to which the predicted growth of aviation in a carbon-constrained world is possible given the known operational and technological options, and in particular the extent to which aviation biofuels form part of the answer.
This report looks at potential options for curbing emissions from international aviation. It considers the environmental, economic and political consequences of potential market based mechanisms, and offers an overall assessment of climate policy in this sector.
Transportation is vital to economic and social development, but at the same time generates undesired consequences on local, regional, and global scales.
Renewable energy deployment remains an important issue. Generation of electricity and heat from renewable energy (RE) sources reduces the emission of greenhouse gases, provides energy access in remote areas, and diversifies fossil-fuel reliant energy supply, increasing energy security.
This paper provides a detailed explanation how the law of the World Trade Organization regulates environmental subsidies with a focus on renewable energy subsidies.
The ‘Building a Low‐Carbon Indian Economy’ report, by the Confederation of Indian Industry, recognises that although India is undergoing a phase of rapid industrial development there are clear signs that ‘industry in India has adopted an approach that can help India leapfrog to a low‐carbon econo
