Climate scenarios for limiting temperature rise well below 2°C rely heavily on bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS). This project assesses the socio-political prospects for deploying BECCS at the scales suggested in the scenarios.

Non-state actors, such as companies and organizations, participate in the UN climate negotiations in various steering groups and side events. This research program focuses on these types of activities and the impact they have.

Collaboration on the climate must build on those measures proposed under the new guidelines in the Paris Agreement 2015. In the project here, the climate policy measures of different states are compared and set in relation to their preconditions.
