First, we recognize the valuable previous studies which model renewable energy growth
with complete termination of fossil fuels along with assumptions of the remaining carbon …

Assuming the state-of-the-science estimates for the remaining carbon budget of carbon
dioxide emissions, our modeling study supports the conclusion that it is still possible to meet …

This study provides a whole-systems simulation on how to halve global CO2 emissions by
2050, compared to 2010, with an emphasis on technologies and costs, in order to avoid a …

The transition from a fossil-based energy economy to one based on renewable energy is
driven by the double challenge of climate change and resource depletion. Building a …

Abstract Achieving the Paris Agreement will require massive deployment of low-carbon
energy. However, constructing, operating, and maintaining a low-carbon energy system will …

Carbon dioxide (CO2) from fossil fuels burning and land-use change is accumulating in the
atmosphere. Current levels are over 40% higher than in the pre-industrial era and a …

This paper presents a systematic scenario analysis of how different levels of short-term 2020
emissions would impact the technological and economic feasibility of achieving the 2° C …

To reach net-zero carbon emissions, most climate change mitigation scenarios model a
rapid transition from hydrocarbon-based energy to renewables, wide-scale electrification …

5° C scenarios reported by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) rely on
combinations of controversial negative emissions and unprecedented technological change …

Low-carbon energy transitions aim to stay within a carbon budget that limits potential climate
change to 2° C—or well below—through a substantial growth in renewable energy sources …
