SUMMARY:EDITS Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Toolbox for modelling sufficiency\nSpeakers: Frauke Wiese (Europa-Universität Flensburg)\, Johannes Thema (Wuppertal Institute)\, Carina Zell-Ziegler (Oeko-Institut)\, Alexander Kling (Wuppertal) \nModerator: Hu Shan (Tsinghua University) \nAbstract:\nAgainst the backdrop of slow progress in the energy transition and the challenges of meeting high levels of demand\, analyzing the potential and policy framework for reducing demand through sufficiency approaches is becoming increasingly important. Over the past five years\, the Energy Sufficiency Research Group (EnSu) has conducted intensive research on the intersection between energy sufficiency and issues related to modeling and integrating sufficiency into scenarios. The published works on sufficiency modeling are available on the EnSu website\, and are shown in light green in the following overview as contributions to demand-side modeling in energy transition scenarios.\n\nIn the webinar\, we will present the toolbox – which consists of data\, models\, and methods – and look forward to your questions and discussion.\n  \nRegister in advance: https://cmcc-it.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_yLVkXuKGSL2VdXSR6kEe2Q

SUMMARY:ELEVATE-ADJUST Webinar
DESCRIPTION:ELEVATE-ADJUST Webinar\nTitle: Who is affected and why? Distributional effects of carbon pricing and the Carbon Pricing Incidence Calculator (CPIC) \nCarbon pricing is increasingly used to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and support the transition to low-carbon economies. But its success depends not only on environmental effectiveness\, but also on how the costs are shared across households and whether policies are perceived as fair. While carbon pricing can encourage cleaner choices and investment\, it may also place a greater burden on some groups depending on their income\, location\, and patterns of energy and transport use. \nCan carbon pricing be designed in a way that is socially equitable and just? In this webinar we introduce an open-source tool the Carbon Pricing Incidence Calculator to provide insights for a broader policy dialogue on design and implementation of carbon pricing schemes. The tool calculates the additional costs to households after a carbon price is introduced\, i.e. the carbon pricing incidence. Currently\, the CPIC allows users to analyze the distributional consequences effects of carbon pricing and various compensation measures in an accessible manner for almost 90 countries.  \nIn this webinar\, the researchers will address the following key questions:  \n\nWhat factors determine the acceptability of carbon pricing?\nWho is most affected by carbon pricing\, and how do the distributional effects differ across households?\nWhat types of compensation or revenue-recycling measures can reduce burdens on vulnerable households?\nHow can CPIC help policymakers\, practitioners\, and researchers assess carbon pricing scenarios and their distributional effects?\n\nPresenter: \n\nJan Steckel is Professor of “Political Economy of Climate Change” at the Technical University Munich and Head of the “Political Economy” working group at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK). His research focuses on the political economy of climate policy and energy transitions\, in particular carbon pricing and compensation design\, the distributional and welfare effects of climate policy reforms\, and socially viable transition strategies such as coal phase out pathways. A central emphasis of his work lies on low and middle income countries and the governance of global commons\, combining climate\, development and public economics to design effective and socially acceptable climate policies.\n\nModerator: \n\nTheda Vetter is a Policy Analyst in the Political Economy Working Group at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. Working at the interface of research and policymaking\, she leads the group’s policy engagement at the national and international levels. She is particularly interested in how evidence-based dialogue and multilateral cooperation can help countries design just climate policies that fit their own contexts. Theda holds a Master of Development Practice from the University of California\, Berkeley\, and a Bachelor of Science in Urbanism from Bauhaus University Weimar. Before joining PIK\, she worked as a consultant for Climate Focus and Rainforest Foundation US.\n\nJoin us for an interactive session on designing and implementing carbon pricing strategies that advance fairness and equity within climate policies.  \nExplore the tool here: https://cpic-global.net/ \nRegister in advance here

SUMMARY:ADJUST Final Conference - Advancing just transition: Tackling distributive impacts and building societal support Insights from AdJUST Horizon
DESCRIPTION:How can Europe achieve climate neutrality without leaving anyone behind? At the AdJUST final conference\, researchers\, policymakers\, trade unions\, and civil society come together to tackle this crucial question. The event will showcase key findings on the social and labour impacts of the green transition\, present the Just Transition Vision\, and spark interactive discussions on fairness\, inclusion\, and energy poverty. \nWith the support of the partners\, IEEP is organising the final conference of the Horizon Europe project AdJUST (“Achieving a just energy transition”)\, where key results will be presented to the participants. \nAmidst the challenges of implementing the Fit for 55 package\, which aims to enable the EU to reach its intermediate climate targets by 2030\, the AdJUST partners have analysed the distributive impacts of the transition to climate neutrality and identified effective policy interventions to accompany climate action that leaves no one behind. By fostering active stakeholder engagement\, the project’s aim was to increase societal support for ambitious climate action. \nThe final conference offers a prime opportunity to present AdJUST’s Just Transition Vision and showcase key study findings on labour market impacts (including for workers and trade unions)\, broader justice dimensions beyond labour\, as well as institutional capacity. It will also feature interactive discussions on just transition\, climate\, and energy poverty\, with insights from experts\, including EU\, national and local policymakers\, trade unions\, think tanks and representatives of civil society. \n\nProgramme: \n\nKeynote from Member of the European Parliament\nBroadcasting of the “Just Transition Vision”\nPresentation of the project’s results around 4 key messages:\n\nWorkers\nTrade unions\nBeyond work\nInstitutional capacity\n\n\nInteractive discussion with first inputs from experts (policymakers\, trade unions\, think tanks and representatives of civil society)\n\n\nAdJUST is a Horizon Europe project coordinated by the CMCC Foundation and carried out by a transdisciplinary European consortium consisting of 9 EU partners\, 2 UK associated partners and other 11 EU associated partners. The objectives of AdJUST are to achieve a step change in societal understanding of the distributive repercussions of the transition to climate neutrality\, and to identify effective and actively-supported policy interventions to accompany climate action so that no-one is left behind.

SUMMARY:EDITS Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Three ways to define consumption corridors and links to wellbeing and inequality\nSpeakers: Vivien Fisch-Romito and Joel Millward-Hopkins\, University of Lausanne \nModerator: Frauke Wiese\, Europa-Universität Flensburg \nAbstract:\nThe idea that everyone should have access to a sufficient\, minimum amount of essential goods and services is uncontroversial\, both in academic and public discourse. It is also clear that avoiding ecological crises requires demand-side changes to consumption\, not just cleaner production. The notion of a minimum ‘floor’ for consumption\, together with constraints placed on total economic activity by environmental limits\, implies an upper ‘ceiling’ to consumption. But the concept of overconsumption remains both controversial and poorly defined. Here we develop three definitions of overconsumption relevant to different scales — individual\, social\, and planetary. These can form overlapping corridors beyond which consumption can be defined as useless\, unfair\, and/or unsustainable\, each of which justifies different political responses. We then describe how all can (and should) be integrated and discuss the implications for understanding and modelling sustainability transitions. To illustrate these possibilities\, we summarise our recent work on energy use in Switzerland. First\, we describe analysis of the potential limits on economic inequality that ‘decent living energy’ requirements imply\, when considering maximum sustainable national energy budgets. Finally\, we show how inequalities in energy use related to transport and housing are influenced by socio-economic\, geographical\, infrastructural\, and behavioral determinants. Energy use is more unequally distributed between individuals than income\, and our results call for policies that go beyond cost-effectiveness to consider age and gender and the targeting of top users.\n\nRegister in advance: https://cmcc-it.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_rBm3qpfGQYO1JWBnzs445g#/registration

SUMMARY:EIEE Seminar-Webinar - Climate Intervention with Stratospheric Aerosols: steps towards a more robust assessment
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Daniele Visioni\, Cornell University\nModerator: Pietro Andreoni\, CMCC \nAbstract: Past explosive volcanic eruptions have shown that large SO2 injections in the stratosphere have a temporary cooling effect on our planet temperatures. This has led some to consider whether artificial injections of sulfate (Stratospheric Aerosols Intervention\, SAI) could temporarily ameliorate some of the effects of climate change\, as a supplement to emission reduction. \nNumerous climate models have analyzed the potential impacts of SAI: based on current international multi-model comparisons as part of the Geoengineering Model Intercomparison Project (GeoMIP)\, and large ensembles of simulations we produced with the Community Earth System Model\, I will describe broad areas of agreement but also highlight large inter-model differences and shortcomings from the simulation of the aerosol cloud downstream to regional climate changes\, as well as discuss the problems and some potential solutions with fully mapping the potential space of different SAI applications. \nBuilding on this\, I will share some personal insights about areas where future research should be headed\, as the topic of Climate Intervention gains relevance internationally\, especially drawing on recent discussions held at the Sixth Session of the United Nation Environmental Agency held in February 2024 and through the World Climate Research Programme Lighthouse Activity on Climate Intervention Research. It is clear that the basis for any potential future agreement around this topic can’t just include improved modeling tools and better observational capabilities\, but also a wide range of collaborations across disciplines both in the natural and social realms and a strong commitment to international cooperation. \nThe event will be held online and in presence at CMCC Milan Offices. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:NEWPATHWAYS Webinar
DESCRIPTION:NEWPATHWAYS Webinar\nTitle: Biodiversity side-effects of carbon-focused reforestation under Paris-aligned transition pathways \nAbstract: Large-scale afforestation/reforestation (AR) is often promoted as a cost-effective way to remove carbon from the atmosphere and support Paris-aligned land and energy transformation pathways. Using a dynamic land and energy-system modelling approach\, we find that while stringent climate action that avoids further conversion of forest and non-forest ecosystems offers substantial biodiversity co-benefits by reducing habitat loss\, these benefits are largely offset at high levels of carbon-focused AR (>150 Mha) because of increasing\, disproportionate losses of open\, non-forest habitats. Notably\, the results also show that the scale of AR deployment has little effect on energy-system transformations before 2050 and only limited influence on long-term emissions. These results highlight the varied and species-specific biodiversity consequences of land-system transformations and that rapid near-term emission reductions remain essential for achieving the targets of the Paris agreement. \nPresenter: \n\nPatrick von Jeetze. Patrick currently works as a doctoral researcher in the land use transition lab at PIK. He studied Global Change Ecology (M.Sc) within the Elite Network of Bavaria and holds a Bachelor’s degree in Ecosystem Management (B.Sc.) from the Georg-August-University in Göttingen. His research interests include: Ecosystem services & biodiversity\, Future of food systems\, Soil science and Food security & global change.\n\nModerator: \n\nMiodrag Stevanović is a Senior Scientist at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) in the Land-Use Transition Lab and co-lead of the research Theme Nature within the lab. He holds a PhD in Economics from the Technical University of Berlin\, and a Master’s degree in economics from the Autonomous University of Barcelona. His research focuses on land-use and agricultural system modeling\, climate change impacts on agriculture\, and mitigation options in the sector. A central focus of his current work is the role of nature in agricultural systems and its linkages to broader economic and financial sector.\n\nDiscussant: \n\nJonathan Doelman is a research scientist and project lead of the IMAGE land use team at PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment. He holds a PhD in global environmental change of Utrecht University. He works with the IMAGE integrated assessment model which is regularly applied in global environmental assessment such as IPCC\, IPBES and UNEP’s Global Environmental Outlook. His area of expertise are scenario-based projections of land use in relation to the food system\, climate change mitigation\, biodiversity and other environmental and sustainability topics.\n\nRegister in advance here

SUMMARY:ECEMP 2026 – Climate Change\, Energy Security and Competitiveness: Modelling an energy system under stress
DESCRIPTION:21-22 October 2026\, Brussels and online \nThe EU aims to reach GHG neutrality by 2050. The conflict in Ukraine raises the question of energy security in the EU. And\, the industry faces strong competition outside of the EU. The challenge for policy makers and modelers alike is to find solutions that are aligned to all of these issues and goals. This year’s ECEMP edition seeks for collaboration between models and modelers to study more than the energy system alone\, including competitiveness\, strategic resources\, policies and social justice. Call for abstracts is open until 12 June 2026. \nMore information
