Decarbonization Workshop: Technology and Policy
Overview and Agenda
April 27, 2021
The topics of deep decarbonization and achieving net-zero economy-wide emissions have become increasingly prominent in energy expert circles. This workshop brought together experts to discuss potential decarbonization pathways and policies within the United States, and how these are, or could be, modeled in the National Energy Modeling System (NEMS). In the first part of the workshop, we discussed policy options aimed at decreasing greenhouse gas emissions; in the second part, we focused on decarbonization technologies; and in the third part, we joined these two topics in a merged discussion.
