Researchers' analysis underpins new 2040 climate targets by EU advisors

In two new reports, researchers from the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), with support from colleagues at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), examined the feasibility and fairness of emissions targets and considerations for the European Climate Law. Keywan Riahi, a member of the 15-strong EU Advisory Board and IIASA Energy, Climate, and Environment Program Director, took the lead in conducting the analyses.
