This document summarizes key aspects of recent Swedish environmental policy and perspectives on policy approaches. It discusses:
1) Sweden's climate policy framework which includes legislation for climate neutrality by 2045 and sector-specific emission reduction targets.
2) Lessons learned from negotiating the climate law including the importance of trust, compromise, and building a shared knowledge base.
3) Expanding indicators beyond just GDP to also track environmental and social well-being.
4) The challenge of transitioning to a "green economy" paradigm that focuses on long-term sustainability rather than short-term economic growth and profit.

This document discusses using an energy systems optimization model called TIMES-Ireland Model (TIM) to inform carbon budget recommendations for Ireland. TIM can calculate the least-cost energy system configuration to meet future demands while respecting constraints. In the short-term, TIM can inform what changes are needed to meet decarbonization targets, the optimal emission reduction pathway over time and sectors, and the policy effort gap. Additional development is needed for TIM to fully inform other questions around carbon budgets, costs, and policies. The model developers aim to make TIM fully open-source and engage stakeholders in its use and development.
Feasibility of Enhancing India’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC)IEA-ETSAP
This document discusses evaluating the political feasibility of India enhancing its Nationally Determined Contribution goals to limit global temperature rise to 2°C. It outlines using the KAPSARC Toolkit for Behavioral Analysis to simulate domestic decision-making processes within the top 5 emitting countries, including India. It describes collecting data through expert interviews to define relevant actors and their positions, influence, and priorities regarding long-term emission reduction targets in India. Baseline data from Indian experts shows initial support ranging from 40-60% reductions in emissions intensity by 2050 compared to current 2030 targets.
The document discusses renewable energy and the need for comprehensive energy plans to address climate change. It states that the demand for renewable energy is increasing globally amid changing political, economic, and technical conditions.

1) Boosting economic growth does not require locking the world into a high-emissions future if pro-growth reforms are combined with coherent climate policy and alignment across the economy.
2) More ambitious climate policies will not harm growth and the combined actions of climate policies and economic reform still deliver net GDP increase in the long run.
3) Getting investment flowing into infrastructure for a low-carbon future requires a 10% increase in spending, offset by $1.6 trillion in annual fossil fuel savings, to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement.
The SWITCH-Asia Programme has promoted sustainable consumption and production (SCP) in Asia since 2007 through grant projects, policy support, and a network facility. It has engaged over 29,000 small and medium enterprises across 18 Asian countries. Completed projects have reported positive environmental, social, and economic impacts including GHG reductions and new income opportunities. The network facility is currently working to exchange knowledge and collect lessons learned to inform future SCP efforts in Asia.
The ENGO Network on CCS was created in 2011 and includes several environmental non-governmental organizations that work to ensure carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is deployed safely and effectively to mitigate climate change. The network aims to develop common positions, disseminate scientific information on CCS, and support domestic and international policies that enable CCS. At the 2012 UN climate conference, the network presented a paper calling for increased governmental and international support for CCS through policies like carbon pricing, regulations, funding for demonstration projects, and knowledge sharing. The document summarizes recommendations for different countries and regions to overcome barriers that have limited CCS deployment in Europe.

Abidjan | Mar 17 | National Experiences in the ECOWAS regionSmart Villages
This document outlines the agenda for a two-day workshop on policy and regulatory frameworks for clean energy mini-grids in West Africa. The workshop will cover national experiences in the ECOWAS region. Session 1 will discuss energy and electricity policies for clean energy mini-grids, using examples from Liberia, Ivory Coast, Cape Verde, and Sierra Leone. Session 2 will focus on economic, customer, and environmental policies and regulations for mini-grids with examples from Ghana, Senegal, and a quality assurance framework. Session 3 will examine licenses, contracts, regulation of financial support schemes for mini-grids with cases from Mali, Nigeria, The Gambia, and Niger.
Many large-scale energy customers, from local governments to corporations, have set ambitious clean energy goals. Utility investments in renewables in the overall generation mix are important to achieving them. But there can be a number of barriers to the inclusion of solar and other renewables in utility long-term planning, including cost and technology assumptions, modeling approaches and scenario development. Large-scale energy customers and utilities have an opportunity and are increasingly taking action to update practices and address these barriers.
This presentation highlights ways that solar energy is currently considered and can be improved in utility long-term planning, and how customers are engaging in these plans to advance their clean energy goals.

Parallel Session C - Presentation by José PinedaOECD Environment
The document discusses measuring progress towards a green economy. It presents the Green Economy Progress (GEP) index, which measures 11 indicators across countries from 2000-2014. The GEP index shows that 54 of 89 countries made positive progress, especially in protected areas, access to basic services, energy use, and pollution. However, most countries showed regress in material footprint and green innovation. Key gaps are limited data on green innovation, especially in developing regions. The GEP index provides a framework to monitor green economy progress but more work is needed to expand indicators and data.

The document presents four scenarios for the development of circular economy and related technologies in Finland:
1. Expansion - Strong political support enables increasing use and investment in existing technologies without radical breakthroughs.
2. Transformation - Widespread support and radical technologies lead to disruptive change and a fully circular economy through fast-developing innovative uses of technology.
3. Stagnation - Limited societal interest results in only incremental improvements to existing technologies and no systematic vision for development.
4. Agility - Technological development occurs via market demand with limited political steering, favoring solutions to individual problems over systemic transformation.
The scenarios differ in the level of societal and political support for circular economy and
