On behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), Global Energy Solutions has developed a reference solution for a global climate-neutral and prosperity-creating energy system. It shows a path that enables ten billion people to live in freedom with adequate prosperity in social balance, an intact environment and a stable climate system in the period 2050 to 2070. The reference solution is also based on extensive basis documentation. It consists of a “Technical Toolbox” that summarises the state of knowledge on relevant topics in the field of energy and nature-based solutions. Another part, “Greenhouse Gas Causing Sectors”, describes the initial situation and options for action in the main greenhouse gas causing sectors. These comprehensive documents are now available on the GES website.
