Biophysical Assessment and Monetary Valuation of Ecosystem Services: Scenario Analysis for the Case of Water Purification in Europe

European Commission
This study presents a framework for the valuation of ecosystem services related to conservation policies, both theoretically and practically, in order to make an economic case for the conservation of biodiversity. Theoretically, it is shown that the application of monetary valuation techniques is instrumental to the outcomes of models.

Dead on Arrival?: Implicit Stranded Assets in Leading IAM Scenarios

Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET), Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment (SSEE), Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), GGKP Annual Conference
While it is acknowledged that asset stranding could jeopardize the political feasibility of climate policies, the amount of stranded assets is rarely made explicit in most decarbonization pathways. This paper introduces a novel method that extracts, for every given energy sector transition scenario, the implicit amount of new power generation capacity that is added every year, and the required amount of stranding if this scenario is to be in line with its projected generation mix.
