The strategic role of systemic transition intermediaries: A cross-sector perspective on voluntary standards for net zero

Aoife Marie Brophy, Jordan Calverley, Astha Wagle, Juliane Reinecke et autres

The transition to net zero requires coordination across public, private and civil-society sectors. Systemic transition intermediaries play a central role in this process by connecting diverse actors while also seeking to accelerate system-level change. This dual objective creates inherent tensions: Intermediaries must …

Investing in Carbon Dioxide Removals: A new analytical and policy paradigm

Mark Workman, Aoife Marie Brophy, Astha Wagle, Madison Cuthbertson et autres

Carbon dioxide removals (CDR) have become central to climate policy. Current policy approaches, however, are insufficient to create the basis for CDR technologies to scale because they are not yet aligned with the complexity shaping the emerging sector. In this article, we …

Aviation sector decarbonisation as a case of deep uncertainty: The need for an integrative, exploratory, and interdisciplinary approach

Anne E. Belcher, Mark Workman, Andy Jefferson, A. Ostrovnaya

Global demand for aviation is expected to double by 2050. This is set against the need to cut aviation CO 2 emissions from 1 GtCO 2 pa today to net zero over the same period. Using the UK aviation market as a …

A Robust Decision-Making approach to evaluating state support for nuclear programmes under uncertainty: A UK case study

Jean-Marc Mangin, Michael Bluck, Geoff Darch, Diarmid Roberts et autres

Several western countries have announced ambitious nuclear energy programmes to boost energy security and support decarbonisation targets following the 2022 energy crisis. However, persistent delays, cost overruns, and volatile financial conditions hinder orthodox strategic planning and deter investment in a sector that …

A robust decision-making approach in climate policy design for possible net zero futures

Mark Workman, Geoff Darch, Bastien Denisart, Diarmid Roberts et autres

The energy modelling community’s analysis of net zero often relies on approaches that hide the extent of uncertainty. Meanwhile the extent of uncertainty involved in the realisation of net zero is proliferating. Conventional consolidative modelling approaches lack of transparency is distorting decision …

Without mandated demand for greenhouse gas removal – High integrity GtCO2-scale global deployment will be jeopardized: Insight from US economic policy 2020–23

Madison Cuthbertson, Mark Workman, Aoife Brophy Haney

Greenhouse gas removals (GGRs) will be essential at GtCO2-scale to offset residual emissions and achieve global net zero by 2050. Engineered GGRs have the greatest long-term, large-scale CO2 storage potential and, therefore, offer opportunities to realize high-integrity removals. However, the most prominent …

UK net-zero policy design – from optimisation to robustness

Quirina Rodriguez Mendez, Mark Workman, Geoff Darch

The need to deal with the deep uncertainty and system complexity associated to Net-Zero pathways, especially those relying on emergent greenhouse gas removal (GGR) technologies, has resulted in a growing body of literature on alternative decision-support approaches. Exploratory modelling, and specifically Robust …

A Collective Intelligence assembly approach to informing responsive net zero policy design: A greenhouse gas removal UK case study

Anna Hardisty, Mark Workman

In addition to radical reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, large-scale removal of anthropogenic CO 2 will be required to mitigate the impacts of global warming. However, many greenhouse gas removal (GGR) methods remain at a nascent stage of development. A case study …
