Les intermédiaires financiers publics (IFP) – plus connus sous le nom de banques publiques ou de développement – ont un rôle stratégique à jouer face aux défis climatiques, et plusieurs pistes sont possibles pour renforcer leur action en la matière.
L’Union Européenne s’est fixée des objectifs de décarbonation ambitieux aux horizons 2030 et 2050. Alors que le secteur des transports est le seul qui a augmenté ses émissions depuis 1990, il est crucial de comprendre ce qui explique l’évolution de ses émissions de CO2, afin de mieux saisir sur quels leviers compter pour accélérer la transition.
Le constat du déclin français et de la désindustrialisation est assez largement partagé, même si l’économie française ne s’est pas effondrée. La transition climatique constitue un défi supplémentaire en créant un choc négatif et un besoin de financement de grande ampleur. Quelles sont les trajectoires envisageables en France et dans l’UE ?
La Chaire Energie et Prospérité a organisé, le vendredi 8 avril 2022, un workshop en visioconférence sur l'articulation entre les objectifs fixés par la Stratégie Nationale Bas-Carbone (SNBC) et les plans stratégiques des entreprises.

In this article, we build on four methods to show that Art. 2.1(c) of the Paris Agreement comprises a new meaning of ‘finance’ under the United Nations negotiations. Implementation of Art. 2.1(c) requires engagement by governments and non-state actors, including the financial sector.
This paper investigate in particular how child labor varies depending on the nature of electricity supply and the electrical appliances used in the household. We find that the employment probability of children from electrified households is lower than that of children living in non-electrified households only when the household combines grid access and a generator as sources of electricity.
The objective of the conference is to improve our understanding of the interaction between climate and innovation policies in this multi-layer governance landscape by bringing together scholars in economics working on innovation policies, international environmental agreements, and environmental federalism.
This paper investigates the design of a recent regulatory proposal aimed at favoring the emergence of a
battery recycling industry in Europe. It develops a material flow model that projects battery wastes and their recycling potential. Our findings indicate that the feasibility of the European Commission proposed thresholds is not very sensitive to changes of material intensities from battery technology shifts, recycling efficiencies, or the faster uptake of demand.
