Going Beyond Carbon: Closing the Non-CO2 Ambition Gap
Efforts to mitigate emissions have largely focused on CO2. We assess the gap around non-CO2 emissions, in particular methane.
Research
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.

Taking Stock 2023: US Emissions Projections after the Inflation Reduction Act
In our annually updated outlook for US greenhouse gas emissions under current federal and state policy, we find that the US is on track to reduce emissions 29-42% below 2005 levels by 2030, absent any additional new action.
Note
Global Emerging Climate Technology Diffusion and the Inflation Reduction Act
The IRA includes significant incentives for emerging climate technologies. Using a new modeling framework, we assess the long-term global emissions impact of these incentives.
