Energie, klimaat en grondstoffen. Wanneer komt die trendbreuk eindelijk?

January 2015 – Energy, Climate and Resources. When will the Breakthrough Arrive? In this article, which I wrote as a member of the editorial board of the Dutch magazine for international relations ‘Internationale Spectator’, I discuss the international signs for breakthroughs towards a more sustainable situation in the fields of energy, climate and resources. I conclude that, despite many weak and medium signals of changes, a tipping point towards sustainable in neither of the three areas is in sight.

Climate Development Projects: Lessons Learned from 2007-2013, Inputs for 2014-20

June 2014 – In order to maintain and further improve the effectiveness of EU climate-development projects, DG CLIMA asked for a thorough analysis of previous projects and lessons learnt from past projects in the period 2007-2013. This required an understanding of the state of play of the aid effectiveness agenda, particularly in relation to climate-development projects, international climate-finance negotiations and the new global climate agreement. Main recommendations of the study are that mitigation projects and efforts could be better integrated into national and regional plans; adaptation efforts are more integrated but could be more scaled up. Also, funding needs to be better coordinated to avoid doubling up of efforts and make sure funding goes to areas which may otherwise be neglected. Further, more experience with innovative financing instruments should be gained if commitments to mobilise climate finance made at UN level are to be met, and lessons from a variety of integration tools already implemented by donor agencies should be studied further and disseminated. Finally, recipient ownership of projects to integrate climate objectives into development cooperation should be increased. Ricardo AEA / Triple E Consulting, London/Rotterdam

Energy Efficiency and Greenhouse Gas Emissions —Prospective Scenarios for the Aluminium Industry in the EU and Iceland

October 2014 – The aim of this project was to perform an in-depth analysis of the technological innovation that could take place in the aluminium sector in the EU and Iceland and a quantification of their impact on the sector’s energy efficiencies, GHG emissions profile and cost-competitiveness up to 2050. Detailed data on available innovations in the European aluminium industry were collected as well as their costs and benefits to be expected. In addition, a comprehensive database with publicly available data on the European aluminium industry was established in order to assess potential effects of innovations on a plant-by-plant basis in a model that was specifically built for this project. The model assesses in detail the likely implementation of new technologies per plant until 2050. It was found that, for three scenarios examined, in particular an increase in secondary production (‘recycling’), rather than changes in electricity or CO2 prices, can influence emissions in a positive way.

De Catch-22 van het internationale klimaatbeleid

February 2014 – The Catch-22 of International Climate Policy. In this column, I argue that to achieve meaningful outcomes of the yearly ‘COP’ international climate conferences more bottom-up support is needed. However, in order to measure and add up the outcomes of these bottom-up actions in an unequivocal way, an international agreement would be needed. Is this situation a typical catch-22? Not completely, as local initiatives can grow without any international agreement. There will arrive a moment, however, that all these initiatives will need to be categorized and judged on their contribution to solving the global problem.

Sectorstudies Staal, Chemische Industrie, Cement en Aardolieverwerkende Industrie

September 2013 – Sectorstudies on Impacts of Dutch Climate Policies on the Chemical Industry, Cement Sector, Chemical Industry and Petroleum Refineries. In this project, based on previous experience with sectoral competitiveness studies, factsheets on the influence of climate policies on sectoral competitiveness in the Netherlands were produced. This was done for the steel, cement and petroleum sector as well as for the chemical industry.Triple E Consulting, Rotterdam

Climate adaptation in the cacao and coffee sectors in Peru

January 2014 – The aim of the research was to assess the challenge that climate change presents to the agricultural export sector, with a focus on the coffee and cacao sectors, in Peru. The study focused on the perceptions, experiences and attitudes of rural SMEs about climate variability and risk and its effect on their business operations and overall competitiveness, as well as on the strategies used by SMEs and their suppliers to address climate change and their capacities for investing in mitigation and adaptation. Finally, it identified the needs of SMEs in order to strengthen their capacity to address the threats related to climate variability and change, as well as the related opportunities and provide recommendations for technical assistance that an agency can provide to companies to address selected trade-related climate change issues identified.
