This report assesses opportunities for fast-tracked renewable energy growth in Indonesia, Thailand, Viet Nam and the Philippines.

In our 2024 update report, we modelled greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions towards 2030 based on countries’ policies as of July 2024 and compared these emissions to countries’ current NDC targets to evaluate whether countries are on track to meet them.

Deutschland und der Verkehrssektor in Deutschland insbesondere hinken beim Klimaschutz hinterher. Je länger Reduktionen verzögert werden, desto dringender und disruptiver werden die Maßnahmen, wenn gesetzte Ziele immer noch erreicht werden sollen.

A new research brief underscores that rapid expansion of renewable electricity and electrification of energy end users are essential, not only to achieve climate mitigation targets but also to boost energy security and economic development across Southeast Asia. Focusing on Indonesia, Thailand, Viet Nam and the Philippines – four countries that are part of the project “Clean, Affordable and Secure Energy for Southeast Asia” (CASE) – the brief analyses net-zero pathways under two different decarbonisation scenarios – one centred on reducing fossil fuel use through the deep electrification of...

This report examines the role of multilateral development banks in ensuring that producer countries secure sustainable development benefits from green hydrogen development.

We estimate that of the total emissions savings that could be achieved by the pledges, around a quarter is already included in government NDCs, around a quarter is additional and achievable, and around half is unlikely to be achieved without further action to improve the initiatives.

Green hydrogen is experiencing a strong push from different directions. This report lays out principles for a sustainable approach to expanding the production and use of the energy carrier, in line with sustainable development goals and the Paris Agreement. Case studies on Colombia, India and Namibia accompany the report to highlight opportunities and obstacles.

In this briefing, we present 1.5°C benchmarks for 16 countries - Australia, Brazil, Chile, China, EU27, Germany, India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Morocco, Türkiye, South Africa, United Arab Emirates, the UK, and the US – and assess whether they are on track to meet them.

Diese Studie zeigt auf Basis der aktuellen Emissionsprojektionen aus dem August 2023, dass die Bundesregierung ihre Zusage zur Einhaltung der 1,5°C-Grenze und des Pariser Abkommens bricht. Insbesondere der Verkehrssektor verzeichnet massiv überhöhte Treibhausgasemissionen und befindet sich derzeit auf einem Pfad zu 2,8°C globaler Erderhitzung.

This Climate Action Tracker briefing assesses recent action from national governments to start phasing out oil and gas production and support renewable electricity—or those that are promoting distractions like CCS.

The midyear UN climate conference “ 58th session of the Subsidiary Bodies” will take place from 5 to 15 June 2023. NewClimate Institute will be present in Bonn participating in multiple events. Additionally, we will release related publications before and during thhe SB58. You can find all information on this page.

Die aktuell umgesetzte Klimapolitik im deutschen Verkehrssektor bis 2030 entspricht einer Erderwärmung von etwa 3°C. Der deutsche Verkehrssektor würde von 2016 bis 2030 fast doppelt so viel verbrauchen, wie das Budget, das ihm für die Einhaltung der 1,5°C-Grenze zustünde. Damit ist der Verkehrssektor das Schlusslicht unter den Sektoren in Deutschland.

This report describes and quantifies different approaches on how the remaining global carbon budget could be distributed to individual countries and the implications for Belgium. It also illustrates the share that according to literature would reflect an unambiguously fair share for Belgium.

Dieser Bericht liefert einen Review und eine klimapolitische Einordnung der aktuellen Studienlage zu neuen und geplanten LNG-Importkapazitäten in Deutschland.

The study compares Germany's plans for the expansion of LNG import infrastructure with the actual need for imports. The analysis concludes that Germany's plans are massively oversized and not compatible with the path to climate neutrality. Germany's climate protection goals require a significant reduction in gas consumption, and the planned infrastructure either risks large financial losses due to low utilisation, or calls into question compliance with the path to climate neutrality.
