The road to achieving the long-term Paris targets: energy transition and the role of direct air capture

Abstract: In this paper, we quantify the energy transition and economic consequences of the long-term targets from the Paris agreement, with a particular focus on the targets of limiting global warming by the end of the century to 2 and 1.5 °C. The study assumes early actions and quantifies the market penetration of low carbon technologies, the emission pathways and the economic costs for an efficient reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions such that the temperature limit is not exceeded. We evaluate the potential r… Show more

“…Importantly, the vast majority of mitigation scenarios considered here only features negative emissions via bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS). We interpret this evidence as a lower-bound estimate of negative emission potentials in these models, since the introduction of additional NETs seems to consistently increase cumulative NETs deployment (Chen and Tavoni 2013, Humpenöder et al 2014, Marcucci et al 2017.…”

“…While the vast majority of studies feature BECCS as the only explicit NET in the portfolio, a number of studies examine the role other NETs, often in small portfolios of two NETs that include BECCS. These studies looked at afforestation and reforestation (AR) (Humpenöder et al 2014, Kreidenweis et al 2016, Tavoni et al 2007, Edmonds et al 2013, Reilly et al 2012, Popp et al 2017, Rose et al 2012, Calvin et al 2014, enhanced weathering (EW) and direct air carbon capture and storage (DACCS) (Marcucci et al 2017, Chen and Tavoni 2013, Strefler et al 2018b. The IAM community is currently investigating the role of larger NETs portfolios including AR, BECCS, DACCS and EW.…”

“…At the same time, modelling teams have started with the implementation of larger portfolios of NET options beyond BECCS (e.g. Chen and Tavoni 2013, Marcucci et al 2017, Streffler et al 2018. This could lead to even larger cumulative carbon dioxide removal in upcoming mitigation scenarios, as suggested by these initial studies.…”
