Une intervention de Teresa Ribera dans le cadre de la conférence finale du projet européen AMPERE, organisée par le Centre for European Policy Studies (CEPS).
Présentation de la conférence [en anglais] :
"The international target of limiting long-term global warming to 2°C and the EU target of reducing emissions at least 80% below 1990 levels by 2050 are directly interlinked. Achieving these goals poses significant challenges as well as opportunities for technology and investment. To date, however, domestic and international action does not yet match these long-term goals. This may result in pitfalls: lock-in into carbon-intensive energy capacity, emissions leakage to non-abating regions and policy uncertainty. These complexities and their economic implications have been evaluated by the AMPERE project, an international modelling platform funded by the European Commission. AMPERE is a collaborative effort by researchers from across Europe as well as from Asia and America that examines a wide range of mitigation scenarios reflecting the limitations of real-world policies. This conference will bring together climate policy experts and stakeholders to discuss the key AMPERE findings and relate them to Europe’s options for climate mitigation strategies and current discussions of a 2030 framework for EU climate and energy policies. Experts will also discuss the prospects for internationally coordinated action based on the Durban platform."
