A multi-model analysis of the EU’s path to net zero

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

The European Union (EU) recently ratcheted its climate ambition to net-zero emissions by 2050, with a milestone of 55% emissions cuts in 2030. This study carries out a model inter-comparison to assess the EU’s path, from “Fit for 55” in 2030 to an intermed ...
