This paper presents a methodology and results for electricity-specific emission factors based on alternative data available from the IEA.
The rebound effect occurs when some pro-environmental activity results in some environmental harm which partly or wholly cancels out the initial environmental benefit, and this paper explores how to minimise it.
The California Air Resources Board (CARB), who works closely with the Western Climate Initiative (WCI), announced on June 29th that it would ...
This report, authored by Ecometrica and commissioned by the Department for Transport (DfT), considers the potential to reduce the risk of ILUC by actions taken at a regional level, for example by a region with a country, a national government or an international body such as the European Union.
The UK government and devolved administrations have established action on climate change as a key priority. Greater progress can be made if GHG emissions are accepted as a fiduciary responsibility of companies and other organisations.
Ecometrica supports a broad mandate in order to promote the idea of fiduciary responsibility on GHG emissions as widely as possible, and discusses this within the summary response below. A full consultation response is to be released shortly.

Electric vehicles have zero tailpipe emissions, but what about the emissions at the power station? This Ecometrica paper presents a definitive figure in gCO2/km for UK electric cars when CO2 emissions at the power station are taken into account.
