Historical diffusion of nuclear, wind and solar power in different national contexts: implications for climate mitigation pathways
Vinichenko, Vadim; Jewell, Jessica; Jacobsson, Johan; Cherp, Aleh (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Climate change mitigation requires rapid expansion of low-carbon electricity but there is a disagreement on whether available technologies such as renewables and nuclear power can be scaled up sufficiently fast. Here we ... -
Historical precedents and feasibility of rapid coal and gas decline required for the 1.5°C target
Vinichenko, Vadim; Cherp, Aleh; Jewell, Jessica (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)A major challenge in combatting climate change is stopping the use of fossil fuels such as coal in electricity generation. This is particularly challenging in Asia—the largest global region with rapidly growing electricity ... -
Phasing out coal for 2 °C target requires worldwide replication of most ambitious national plans despite security and fairness concerns
Vinichenko, Vadim; Vetier, Marta; Jewell, Jessica; Nacke, Lola; Cherp, Aleh (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Ending the use of unabated coal power is a key climate change mitigation measure. However, we do not know how fast it is feasible to phase-out coal on the global scale. Historical experience of individual countries indicates ...
