Rhodium Group’s Energy & Climate practice uses a multidisciplinary, data-driven approach to produce unique, independent insights into global energy dynamics, greenhouse gas emissions, and climate change.
We help public and private decision-makers understand what kind of climate future we are on track for, and what matters most for reducing greenhouse gas emissions—at the local, state, national, and international levels. By combining policy expertise with a suite of detailed energy-economic models, our research provides data-driven insights into the impacts of energy and climate change policy and real-world developments on greenhouse gas emissions, energy markets, economic output, and clean technology pathways.
Note
This note marks the start of a new collaboration between Bruegel and Rhodium Group to compare clean technology deployment and manufacturing trends in Europe and the United States.
Note
EPA recently finalized new standards for regulating greenhouse gases from power plants. We analyze what the new rules mean for electric power GHG and conventional pollutant emissions into the next decade.
Note
As countries rachet up climate policies to keep the Paris Agreement goals within reach, the role of trade instruments in decarbonization strategies has been brought back into the limelight.
Report
The Biden administration’s recent decision to raise tariffs on imports of electric vehicles and batteries from China raises the question of how the levels of projected domestic EV and battery manufacturing capacity compare to projected demand.

Note
Rhodium Group provides the most up-to-date global and country-level GHG emissions estimates each year. This year’s update features final emissions estimates from 1990-2019 and preliminary estimates for 2020.
Report
Meeting the US's 2030 climate goal is achievable if Congress, the executive branch, and subnational leaders all take a series of feasible policy actions.
Report
In Taking Stock 2021, we find that the US is on track to reduce emissions 20-22% below 2005 levels by 2025, and 20-26% below 2005 levels by 2030, absent additional action
Note
Using our newly updated global emissions data through 2019, we estimate that in 2019, for the first time since national greenhouse gas emissions have been measured, China’s annual emissions exceeded those of all developed countries combined.
Note
As most of the world experienced economic contraction in 2020, China’s industrial-led recovery kept the nation in positive territory. As a result, China is also the only major economy to experience an increase in emissions last year.
Note
Throughout 2020, we've been tracking real-time energy and emissions implications of COVID-19. Based on preliminary economic and energy data, we estimate that this historic shock to economic activity led to a 10.3% drop in US emissions in 2020.
Note
President Trump has made dismantling environmental regulations a priority during his time in office. Rhodium Group has assessed the emissions implications for each of the major rollbacks.
Report
To support efforts to track the impacts of COVID-19 in real time, we're tracking the key drivers of emissions for the world's largest emitters: the United States, the European Union, China, and India.
Report
Rhodium Group is tracking green stimulus spending across the world’s largest emitters—the United States, the European Union, China, and India, which together make up two-thirds of global GDP and over 50% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
Report
In our 2020 annual outlook of US greenhouse gas emissions, we focus solely on the largest source of uncertainty in the current outlook for US emissions: COVID-19’s impact on the economy.
