Periodic Reporting for period 2 - PARIS REINFORCE (Delivering on the Paris Agreement: A demand-driven, integrated assessment modelling approach)
Período documentado: 2020-12-01 hasta 2022-11-30
PARIS REINFORCE aimed at revolutionising the scientific paradigm and underpinning climate policymaking with authoritative processes and tangible results and enhancing and legitimising the science-policy interface leading to improved, evidence-based, inclusive, realistic, sustainable, and robust policies. Its objectives were:
O1. To develop a novel, IAM-oriented assessment framework for effectively supporting the design and evaluation of climate policies globally and in the EU as well as in all other major emitters and selected less developed countries, in respect to the objectives of the Paris Agreement:
-5 reports on EU decarbonisation (21 papers, 7 conferences)
-4 reports on major emitters and less-developed countries’ NDCs (19 papers, 2 conferences)
-4 policy reports on global-level insights (20 papers, 9 conferences)
-24 papers, 7 conferences on IA modelling
-2 policy briefs on decarbonisation at national level and the EU’s CBAM
O2. To enhance the legitimacy of the scientific processes in support of climate policymaking, by introducing an innovative stakeholder inclusion framework (co-design) and improving the transparency of the respective models, methods and tools:
-2 EU regional stakeholder events
-Database of ~4,000 stakeholders
-10 national workshops in Europe, 11 outside Europe
-Lessons for stakeholder engagement (4 papers, 3 conferences)
-3 reports on model ensemble (6 infographics, 1 interactive heatmap on models)
-2 reports on project tools and protocols
-Policy brief on model capabilities
-I2AM PARIS & interactive map of models (2 videos, 1 paper, 2 conferences)
-3 reports on model interlinkages
-41 non-academic commentaries (Forbes, Bloomberg, Spiegel, etc.)
-3 data management plans
-1 plan and 1 report on coordination and synergies with other projects
-2 final policy events
O3. To introduce innovative policy support frameworks that improve the robustness of modelling outcomes against different types of uncertainties, inherent in both the climate change domain and integrated assessment processes:
-Systems of innovation frameworks in 7 countries (4 papers, 7 infographics)
-Multiple-uncertainty IAM framework for SDGs, data analysis algorithm, open-source tool, applications (6 papers, 6 conferences)
-Multiple-criteria group decision framework, software, applications (7 papers, 3 conferences)
-FCM framework, open-source tool, applications (4 papers, 2 conferences)
-Index decomposition analysis framework for the EU
-Co-created transformative policy narratives for 5 countries (2 conferences)
-1 policy brief in EC’s COP26 Policy Publication

(a) I2AM PARIS platform
Co-designed with stakeholders.
Up and running since 11/2019.
Detailed, dynamic, comparative model documentation (19 project & 25 external models)
6 workspaces
(b) Stakeholder Council
~4,000 stakeholders
Early dialogue with key policymakers to determine topics finalised in EU policy workshop, series of national workshops for policy relevance, meetings with EC representatives, 2nd EU-wide event, 2nd series of national workshops for co-creation and ownership
Guide with learnt lessons
2 EU regional events, 21 national workshops
(c) Modelling
Europe: earlier than envisaged, in parallel with global runs, to produce results for IPCC AR6; documentation, harmonisation, update; a “Where are We Headed?” (WWH) scenario framework; analysis of SDG implications; final multi-model analysis, informed by stakeholders, policy updates, COVID adjustments, AFOLU strategies and CBAM, at member-state and sectoral level
Other regions: stakeholder-informed pathways (current policies vs. deep decarbonisation in Brazil, Canada, China, India, Mexico, Russia, USA, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan); SDG implications; analysis of 27 game-changing innovations; update of stakeholder-informed pathways (on increasing ambition and achieving net zero vis-à-vis perceived bottlenecks)
Globally: documentation, harmonisation, literature review on research capacity needs; model inter-comparison on WWH scenarios (early IPCC AR6 input); stakeholder narratives and interpretation/future of Paris Agreement; study of gaps between ambition and Paris targets; updated assessments for post-COP26 policies/pledges; employment and GDP impacts
