Calculation of Paris-Compatible Emission Targets Using the Example of the EU/Berechnung Paris-kompatibler Emissionspfade mit dem ESP-Modell am Beispiel der EU

Summary:The Extended Smooth Pathway Model presented here provides a framework for allocating a global C[O.sub.2] budget to countries and deriving national emission paths. Exemplary emission targets are shown for the EU. The derivation of Paris- compatible emission targets, however, requires science-based political decisions about the global budget, its distribution, the potential for future negative emissions and the course of national emission paths. JEL Classification: Q54, Q58 Das hier betrachtete Extended Smooth Pathway Model bietet einen Rahmen, um mit dem Pariser Klimaabkommen kompatible nationale Emissionspfade herzuleiten. Am Beispiel Europa werden exemplarische Emissionsziele gezeigt.
