This ambitious study, commissioned by the European Climate Foundation (ECF), will rigorously examine the feasibility of achieving 80% greenhouse gas emission reductions in Europe by 2050. To achieve this goal the power sector must be almost fully decarbonized, which will require the integration of very high percentages of renewable power (60% to 80% or more). RAP is a member of the policy team for this project, analyzing the near- to mid-term public policies needed to move the EU to this low-carbon transition, and RAP’s policy paper on generation capacity market design has been incorporated into the Roadmap 2050 report.
