Boasson is a Lead Author in the upcoming Sixth Assessment report cycle of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, working group III Mitigation. During her stay at SCANCOR, Boasson will primarily work on publications relating to two research projects on comparative climate policy; the 'Revising the National Renewables Policy Mix: The role of state aid and other key EU policies (REMIX)’ and ‘Understanding the international Context for Norway's low-emission Economy Transition (CONNECT).
Prosjekter
- Revising the National Renewables Policy Mix: The role of state aid and other key EU policies (REMIX) REMIX handler om hvordan EU og nasjonale beslutninger former fornybar energi-politikk i seks europeiske land.
- Den internasjonale konteksten for overgangen til et lavutslippssamfunn I det nye klimaregimet under Parisavtalen er det mer fokus på nasjonale utslippskutt mens sentrale prinsipper om global kostnadseffektivitet blir mindre viktige. Det nye, internasjonale klimaregimet markerer dermed et skifte til en mer nasjonalt orientert og sektorspesifikk tilnærming til klimapolitikk. Dette skiftet vil få konsekvenser for norsk klimapolitikk i årene framover.
