The Paris Agreement rests on individual countries and regions identifying stretching but feasible mitigation pathways. These must be acceptable and achievable in the eyes of a range of stakeholders in those countries, including those from civil society, governments, and businesses.

The H2020 PARIS REINFORCE project has launched a Special Issue in Elsevier’s Renewable & Sustainable Energy Transition (journal homepage) on “Promoting sustainable transitions across the globe”, inviting submissions looking at whole economy or sectoral decarbonisation pathways that help to achieve the Paris Agreement goals, with a particular focus on those pathways that have been informed by integrated assessment, energy system, macroeconomic and/or sectoral models as well as by stakeholder inputs and opinions. The Special Issue will have no particular geographical focus, with instead a view to showcasing a diverse set of regions’ pathways to a low-carbon future, considering their particular circumstances, opportunities, and challenges.

For more information, please see the call for papers here.

You are invited to submit your manuscript at any time before August 31, 2022. For any inquiries about the appropriateness of contribution topics, please contact Dr. Alexandros Nikas via anikas@epu.ntua.gr.

All manuscripts will undergo an anonymous peer-review process and must adhere to the journal’s guidelines (RSET Guide for Authors).
