Comparison of GHG mitigation efforts
between Annex 1 countries
Objectives
• Impartial, coherent and transparent comparison of
GHG mitigation potentials and costs in Annex 1 countries
– using a multi-disciplinary systems approach,
– based on publicly available data,
– taking into account co-benefits on air pollution,
– independent assessment, financed through IIASA’s core funds.
• Results, input data and an interactive calculator freely
available in the public domain:
http://gains.iiasa.ac.at
Methodology
Bottom-up approach:
• all gases and sectors,
• at detailed technical level (several 100 source categories,
300+ mitigation measures, etc.)
• systems approach (integrated perspective covering
demand and supply sectors),
• consistent with UNFCCC 2005 inventories,
• employing exogenous activity projections,
• technical, economic and market potentials (before trading).
Based on earlier work with IIASA’s GAINS (Greenhouse gas –
Air pollution Interactions and Synergies) model

Interest rate: 20%
An initial implementation
• For largest Annex 1 countries (98% of 1990 emissions),
EU27 presented in aggregate
• Based on activity projections of
IEA World Energy Outlook 2008 and
FAO World Agriculture Perspective
• Key assumptions:
–
–
–
–
–
Only currently available technologies
Natural turnover of capital stock, no premature scrapping
No behavioural changes
Domestic measures only
LULUCF excluded for now
• Initial analysis compiled from publicly available information,
received only limited review by national experts up to now

Conclusions
• IIASA’s GAINS analysis:
– Coherent and impartial comparison of mitigation efforts
– Analysis based on publicly available data
– Transparency: Open access to results and all input data:
http://gains.iiasa.ac.at
– Review workshop in May/June 2009
• The analysis quantifies impacts of objective reasons for
differences in mitigation efforts.
• Different equity criteria deliver different rankings of
countries.
• The GAINS calculator provides a practical tool for
comparing mitigation efforts along multiple criteria.
