  2. 🌍 CO₂ removal must become an integral part of energy research.

    Without negative emissions, #ClimateNeutrality will not be achievable. A national research team recommends better system models, clear policy frameworks, and forward-looking CO₂ infrastructure planning.

    With input from Jülich researcher Dr. Thomas Schöb of Jülich Systems Analysis (ICE-2).

  7. 🔌 As Europe works to strengthen #energysecurity on its path to #climateneutrality, #electrifying industrial process heat is a clear opportunity to cut both #emissions and fossil fuel import dependence.

    ⚡️ With new support schemes being developed – including under the forthcoming Industrial Decarbonisation Bank – an important question persists: how does the carbon intensity of today’s power mix shape the real world impact of #electrification? 1/x

  9. My Comment: Our #future needs education, a global sense of #unity, a focus on important #goals: #climateneutrality, new technologies or space exploration. But in #Germany, as elsewhere, signs point to #nationalism, #xenophobia, #racism. #AfD and other #rightwing activists are the #wrong path. Inter alia, I see negative influences also in some German #duelingfraternities.

  11. Net-zero scenario is ‘cheapest option’ for UK - At least if you take climate damages into account.

    (And quite affordable even if you don’t. Especially compared to some other recent UK policy choices one can mention)

  12. Our latest commentary by Benjamin Görlach, Lead EU Climate Economics and Finance, provides a sneak peek into an upcoming Agora paper outlining options to ensure that flexibilities align with the EU’s trajectory to #climateneutrality.

    Today, the EU is 37% below 1990 emissions, and with full implementation of measures already in the pipeline, it could reach 54% by 2030 – just one point shy of its legally binding goal. This keeps a chance to reach the next milestone, a 90% reduction by 2040.🌍 2/x

  13. From January 2026, the EU’s 🇪🇺 Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism ( #CBAM) will start placing a fee on carbon-intensive imports, while free allowances under the EU carbon market (ETS) are reduced. But as it only tackles carbon leakage on imports, an important question remains: how can Europe protect exporters while staying on track for #climateneutrality? 🌍1/x

  16. 🌍 Leadership update at Agora!

    Frauke Thies has decided to leave her role as Executive Director to become Co-Director of our European work, joining Emeline Spire in our Brussels office.

    Markus Steigenberger continues at the helm of the organisation as Managing Director of Agora Think Tanks.

    This new Franco-German dual leadership comes at a critical moment on Europe’s path to #climateneutrality. 1/x
