Imagine a high-tech GPS for the green transition that doesn't just show the fastest route to zero emissions, but also warns you about health risks and job losses along the way. It uses a massive map of pollution and industrial data to predict how changing a technology affects the whole world. It's like a flight simulator for the economy, helping leaders test different green choices before spending billions.
Companies struggle to predict how switching to green technologies will affect their supply chain, labor costs, and regional health regulations. There is a lack of granular data to prove that a specific technical change leads to a real-world socio-economic benefit.
A high-resolution (10x10km) global map of greenhouse gas and air-pollutant emissions. A two-tier modeling system that links energy efficiency goals with labor and health impacts.
If you are a utility provider dealing with the transition to net-zero technologies — this project developed a modeling tool that predicts how energy efficiency gains along the supply chain impact regional health and labor markets.
If you are a manufacturer dealing with TRL4 technology deployment — this project developed a simulation platform that shows how your specific technology fits into global decarbonization pathways up to 2060.
If you are a consulting firm dealing with complex EU-China trade emissions — this project developed a high-resolution emission map (10x10 kilometers) that provides evidence for decarbonization policy recommendations.
Based on available project data, the tools are intended to be open access for the scientific community, but specific commercial pricing is not mentioned.
The project uses high-resolution data (10x10 kilometers) and covers global emissions, suggesting it is designed for large-scale regional and national application.
Based on available project data, the project aims to provide open access tools and data, though specific licensing terms for industry are not detailed.
It provides high-resolution roadmaps and impact analyses that inform evidence-based policy recommendations for decarbonization.
The project runs from 2024-03-01 to 2028-02-29, with initial foundations built in the first 18 months.
The project is heavily academic, with 7 universities and 1 research center out of 11 partners. However, it includes 1 industry partner and 2 other organizations across 6 countries (CN, DE, ES, NL, PL, UK), giving it a global perspective particularly between the EU and China. The industry ratio is low at 9%, suggesting the output is currently more of a scientific tool than a commercial product.
