Bio-electricity is an important technology for Energy Modeling Forum (EMF-27) mitigation scenarios, especially with the possibility of negative carbon dioxide emissions when combined with carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS). With a strong economic foundation, and broad coverage of economic activity, computable general equilibrium models have proven useful for analysis of alternative climate change policies. However, embedding energy technologies in a general equilibrium model is a challenge, especially for a negative emissions technology with joint products of electricity and carbon dioxide storage. We provide a careful implementation of bio-electricity with CCS in a general equilibrium context, and apply it to selected EMF-27 mitigation scenarios through 2100. Representing bio-electricity and its land requirements requires consideration of competing land uses, including crops, pasture, and forests. Land requirements for bio-electricity start at 200 kilohectares per terawatt-hour declining to approximately 70 kilohectares per terwatt-hour by year 2100 in scenarios with high bioenergy potential.

Bereits seit knapp 20 Jahren führt das Öko-Institut eine Umfrage unter den in Deutschland tätigen BHKW-Unternehmen durch. So wurden auch in diesem Jahr erneut gemeinsam mit E&M der Absatz für das letzte sowie eine Prognose für das aktuelle Kalenderjahr abgefragt. Das Ziel der Absatzumfrage ist es, die aktuellen Entwicklungen auf dem BHKW-Markt für die in Deutschland verkauften und die für den Export bestimmten Anlagen abzubilden. Das ist insbesondere wichtig, um die Bewegungen im Energiesektor in diesem Segment darzustellen. Durch die jährliche Durchführung der Umfrage zeigen sich zeitnah die Auswirkungen von Novellierungen des Kraft-Wärme-Kopplungsgesetzes oder von Förderprogrammen wie dem „Zuschuss für Brennstoffzellen“ der KfW. Da die Registrierungspflicht in das Marktstammdatenregister von neuen und älteren KWK-Anlagen erst 2021 greift, können außerdem vorhandene Lücken in der statistischen Erfassung von kleinen Strom- und Wärmeerzeugungsanlagen geschlossen werden.

The launch of the European Union’s (EU) Horizon Europe programme provides exciting opportunities for Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) research to contribute to the fulfilment of the EU’s ambitious policy goals on energy and climate change. This report presents 100 questions that have been identified by experts as key priorities for SSH research on energy efficiency, in order to inform and support these goals.

We describe carbon dioxide mitigation scenarios specified by the Energy Modeling Forum study (EMF-24) „U.S. Technology Transitions under Alternative Climate Policies,“ using a global computable general equilibrium model that simulates world energy and agricultural systems through 2050. One set of scenarios covers variation across five major technology groups: end-use technology, carbon dioxide capture and storage, nuclear electricity generation, wind and solar power, and bioenergy. Other scenarios cover variation across policies. Policies such as a renewable portfolio standard for electricity generation or a clean electricity standard have the potential for significant emissions reductions, but at a greater cost than a cap-and-trade scenario with the same reduction in emissions. Cap-andtrade scenarios resulted in carbon dioxide leakage rates of 11 to 20 percent depending on the stringency of the targets. Oil-exporting regions without a mitigation policy may still have significant welfare losses when other world regions reduce emissions.

In order to achieve national or EU-wide energy efficiency targets, a variety of policies is available. Apart from the traditional set of regulative, financial, fiscal and informative instruments, market-oriented instruments as e.g. energy efficiency obligations (EEOs) become more and more important. The new EU Energy Efficiency Directive (EED) even suggests EEOs as the preferred instrument for promoting energy efficiency in all Member States. Their actual impact, however, depends highly on the national framework. With a multi-criteria, semi-quantitative approach we evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of these instruments, taking Germany as an example. The evaluation shows that none of the instruments alone can achieve the prescribed energy efficiency targets, but that a mix of instruments is necessary. The possibility of a budget-independence of the funding in particular supports a supplementary deployment of new market-oriented instruments such as an EEO as part of the future mix of policy instruments in Germany. https://doi.org/10.1260/0958-305X.24.1-2.27

Angesichts des fortschreitenden Klimawandels sind deutliche Minderungen der Treibhausgasemissionen in naher Zukunft zwingend erforderlich. Im Verkehrssektor stellen die notwendigen Reduktionen angesichts des erwarteten Anstiegs des Verkehrsaufkommens eine besondere Herausforderung dar. Wie können wir in Deutschland in Zukunft Mobilität für alle gewährleisten und gleichzeitig die Treibhausgasemissionen deutlich mindern? Diese Frage wurde im Rahmen des Projektes Renewbility gestellt, das vom Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz und Reaktorsicherheit gefördert wurde.

In: Sebastian Oberthür und Kirstin Rosendal (eds), Global Governance of Genetic Resources: Access and Benefit Sharing after the Nagoya Protocol, Abingdon: Routledge, S. 132-157. In international environmental politics, more and morepayment schemes or markets for ecosystem services are introduced, changing the nature of governance. The paper explores and compares the following schemes: benefit-sharing on genetic resources under (a) the Convention on Biological Diversity plus its Nagoya Protocol and (b) the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture; (c) forest projects under the UNFCCC Clean Development Mechanism and (d) the emerging scheme of ‘Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation in developing countries’ (‘REDD+’) under the UNFCCC. The analysis covers (a) the targeted ecosystem services; (b) the in-struments’ evolution; (c) the instruments as such, focusing on their economic nature and the transactions they induce; and (d) the instruments’ effects. The research is based on institutional and document analysis, expert interviews as well as a review of quantitative and qualitative data on instrument effects. In a concluding assessment the author compares the four instruments, helping to elucidate the particular features of the CBD/NP market. More generally, the comparison confirms those voices skeptical of the introduction of markets for ecosystem services; non-market-based payment schemes are regarded as less problematic.

Published in: Historical Social Research 49 (2024)1 A major challenge in building and securing a repository for high-level waste is the long-time spans needed for site selection, construction, storage, and closure. Depending on the type of site selection procedure and the chosen repository concept, this can take decades or even more than a century. Even today, this applies to many places in all countries that have or are oper-ating nuclear power plants. These include the sites for interim or final storage or reprocessing. Over time, other places will also be affected during the site selection procedure and afterwards during construction and disposal. The processes will cause landscape transformations to a greater or lesser extent, to allow for activities including transportation and excavation. Nuclear waste governance is an extremely challenging and contested issue, starting with site selection, because nobody wants nuclear waste close by. Technologies and societies can change considerably over time.

Cultural landscapes are appreciated for the plethora of ecosystem services that they provide to society. They are, however, subject to rapid and fundamental transformations across Europe, mainly as a result of intensification or abandonment of land uses. Our objective is to assess the possible future drivers of cultural landscape changes and their likely impacts on ecosystem services provision as perceived by local actors. We present stakeholder-based scenarios for the Swabian Alb, a biosphere reserve in southern Germany, projected to the yr 2040. On their basis, we explore the possibilities and limitations of local civil engagement for landscape conservation and development in the face of increasing global influences.
