    Author : Caroline Ferning; [2021-06-18]
    Keywords : EU ETS; Swedish forest industry; Competitiveness; Shipping; Maritime transportation;

    Abstract : Shipping has a leading role in our globalised world and accounts for 90 % of the global trade volume transported over the world. International Maritime Organization (IMO) forecasts that the demand for shipping will increase in the future, hence leading to a rise in emissions. READ MORE

  2. 22. Can China's Carbon Emission Trading Make a Difference? A quasi experimental analysis of the ETS pilot scheme

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : Shicheng Xia; [2021]
    Keywords : China emission trading; carbon neutrality; policy analysis; quasi-natural experiment; matching;

    Abstract : With an aim to reduce carbon emissions and thus cope with the climate change, China initiated its Emission Trading System (ETS) in several pilot regions since 2013. In this thesis I investigate the CO2 emission reduction effect of the China ETS pilot scheme, which could serve as an important indicator to infer how the forthcoming national ETS will perform in the future.

  4. 24. CCS via Electrochemical CO2 Reduction to Ethylene-based Polymeric Construction Materials

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Christian Taylor; [2021]
    Keywords : CCS; Electrochemical CO2 Reduction; CO2 to Ethylene; Power-to-X; Polymeric Construction Materials; Circular Carbon Economy; Electrolysis; CO2 electroreduction; CCS; Elektrokemisk CO2-reduktion; Koldioxid till Eten; Power-to-X; Polymera konstruktionsmaterial; Cirkulär kolekonomi; elektrolys; CO2-elektroreduktion;

    Abstract : IPCC SR15 rapporterade att alla framtida scenarier för att begränsa klimatförändringen till 1,5°C är starkt beroende av negativa utsläppstekniker, såsom geografisk CO2-lagring som används av Stockholm Exergi’s Värtaverket. Men kan man uppnå starkare klimatvinster genom en cirkulär koldioxidekonomi? Bildandet av en cirkulär koldioxidekonomi är absolut nödvändigt för att uppnå global koldioxidneutralitet, men hur kommer vi dit? Elektrolys av CO2 erbjuder en ekonomiskt och miljömässigt attraktiv väg för att uppgradera CO2-utsläpp till värdefulla bränslen och råvaror, vilket minskar användningen av fossila resurser och CO2-utsläpp till atmosfären.
