Greenhouse gas mitigation scenarios for major emitting countries

October 9, 2022

Greenhouse gas mitigation scenarios
Our findings suggest that emissions are on the way to reach pre-pandemic levels. Of the 25 countries analysed, emissions under current policies have increased from 36.3-36.8 GtCO2e in 2020 to 37.2- 38.1 GtCO2e in 2021; this translates to a rebound of 2.5-3.5% since the COVID-19-induced emissions dip observed in 2020. Recent estimates of global CO2 emissions suggest a rebound of between 4.2% and 6.5% in 2021 (Davis et al., 2022; Jackson et al., 2022)

Securing the Energy Transition

whitePaper | January 12, 2023

Energy security and affordability present global challenges, but both are integral elements of a successful energy transition, alongside sustainability to mitigate climate change. The current energy crisis is driving inflation, slowing economic growth and contributing to social turmoil. Some choices made by countries in response to the crisis, such as improving energy efficiency and scaling renewables, will be beneficial for the wider energy transition. But other actions – including increased production of electricity from coal and broad-based consumption subsidies – put longterm energy transition imperatives at risk, while leaving those countries more vulnerable to future crises and putting global climate goals out of reach.

The future is energy-efficient,the future is data-driven

whitePaper | May 19, 2022

By 2050, global energy usage is projected to increase by almost 50% compared to 2020. This includes an increase in energy consumption in the industrial sector.1 At the time of writing, in the first quarter of 2022, the cost of energy – oil, gas and electricity – is particularly high, which has led to significant extra energy costs for companies, and prices are expected to increase.

FRED ENERGY

whitePaper | June 8, 2022

Due to supply and demand, this will contribute trillions of dollars to the energy corporates but will lead to above inflation price increases for consumers. The overall effects will be felt by all of us but those most vulnerable such as low-income earners and the elderly will be unable to meet the growing energy costs causing them to fall into what is termed “fuel poverty”. Energy suppliers are forecast to move towards greener alternative energy sources and this is great news for the environment, but it will have little effect on the consumer at cost level
