Report
In this first edition of the new Global Clean Investment Monitor, we explore how—after decades of national policy support, primarily in the US, China, and Europe—electric vehicles and batteries have been catapulted into mass commercialization.
Note
This note is the fourth in a series of briefings comparing clean technology deployment and manufacturing trends in Europe and the United States as part of a collaboration between Bruegel and Rhodium Group.
Note
We estimate that global GHG emissions rose in 2023 by 1.2% over the previous year, reaching 51.8 gigatons of CO2-equivalent on net. This follows a 1.0% increase in 2022 as countries recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic disruptions of 2020.
Report
