The energy producing and consuming sectors – buildings, industry, transport, agriculture – must completely decarbonize within three decades. Targets and public policies have multiplied in recent years, but implementation remains insufficient and complex. Many households, local authorities and companies do not consider the investments required to be profitable, do not have the capacity to invest in alternatives to fossil fuels, and are faced with sudden rises in energy prices.
I4CE quantifies investments and investment needs in the energy transition, assesses the effectiveness of public policies, particularly public financing, to provide policymakers and all stakeholders with the information they need. The Institute provides free access to the evaluation tools it develops.
