Evaluating sustainability transitions pathways: Bridging analytical approaches to address governance challenges (2015, unknown): “…parameters often re ﬂ ect policy objectives and instruments (e.g. ‘ business-as-usual ’ (BAU), ‘ high carbon ’ , ‘ carbon tax ’ ) or technological avenues (e.g. ‘ more electric ’ , ‘ hydrogen economy ’ , ‘ no nuclear ’ , etc.) (Foxon et al., 2013; Kriegler et al., 2014; Trutnevyte et al., 2014).”
A new scenario framework for climate change research: the concept of shared climate policy assumptions (2014, methodology): “…cooperative action starting immediately with more plausible policy scenarios that include regionally and sectorally fragmented climate policies, staged accession to a global climate regime, and non-participation (Clarke et al. 2009; Blanford et al. 2014; Kriegler et al. 2014b; Luderer et al. 2014).”
The political economy of negative emissions technologies: consequences for international policy design (2018, unknown): “Without NETs, scenarios of ‘ overshoot and decline ’ of atmospheric GHG concentrations (such as Azar, Lindgren, Larson, & Mollersten, 2006; Kriegler et al., 2014; Peters, 2016) are virtually impossible.”
Business models as drivers of the low carbon power system transition: a multi-level perspective (2016, methodology): “…transformation pathways 31 [developed with Integrative Assessment Models] require significant reduction in energy intensity (i.e. efficiency), a 32 radical electrification of the energy system, and a fast decarbonisation of the electricity sector (Kriegler et al., 2014; 33 Rogelj et al., 2015).”
Economic growth and development with low‐carbon energy (2017, background): “The Global Burden of Disease project estimates that in 2010 close to 7 million people died globally from the effects of ambient and household air pollution (Lim et al. 2013).”
Getting from here to there – energy technology transformation pathways in the EMF27 scenarios (2014, background): “A more detailed description of the study design can be found in Kriegler et al. (2013).”
