The new Brazil country report from EEIST — Energy Transition in Brazil: Innovation, Opportunities, and Risks. This report provides insights on how unique dimensions of the Brazilian landscape and financial situation give scope for effective action towards a low-carbon re-industrialisation. It illustrates in particular that the dynamic nature of low-carbon re-industrialisation offers an opportunity, with ROA a more useful tool than traditional (but impractical) cost-benefit analysis (CBA) to assess the green transition via empirical case studies.
Our latest report – Crossing the tipping point – Electric Vehicles Case Study – finds that global electric vehicle (EV) sales are on track to meet or outpace even the most ambitious net-zero timelines and could account for more than two thirds of market share by 2030, according to new analysis.
This practitioner-focused paper – Net-zero transition planning for pension funds and other asset owners – sets out how the Economics of Energy Innovation and System Transition (EEIST) programme – initially targeted at net-zero policymakers – can be applied to catalyse a paradigm shift in transition planning in the investment industry.
Through 15 real-world, global, regional and national case studies, developed in partnership with policy stakeholders, the latest EEIST report demonstrates how new economic modelling approaches can deliver crucial insights for decision makers. It also provides guidance on how to evaluate and choose between different modelling approaches and how to support their use.
This dialogue gathered participants including academic experts and government representatives, to share learning on the application of dynamic analysis techniques to policy decisions on low carbon transitions. Participants also identified opportunities for work to further advance understanding, build analytical capabilities, and inform policy.
Our latest report, Ten Principles for Policy Making in the Energy Transition, offers governments new methods to use policy to accelerate clean technology transitions to drive action on climate goals.
The New Economics of Innovation and Transition: Evaluating Opportunities and Risks highlights that some of the greatest successes in the clean energy transition so far, such as dramatic cost reductions in wind and solar power and LED lighting, have come from policies to shape markets that were not generally those recommended by conventional economic analysis. To replicate these successes, the report calls on policy makers to learn the lessons and think differently about the dynamics of change in our economies.
