Climate Policy Assessment
Enerdata advises you on the most beneficial policy or investment options
Climate constraints are more and more stringent. Commitments have been made by governments and must be reviewed. Enerdata possesses unique tools and expertise to evaluate those commitments and their implications across the economy and energy sectors. We enable you to elaborate your energy transition policy or to adapt your investment strategy accordingly.

- For ECF, an international organisation: Enerdata was involved as technical partner within this project, led by the 2050 Pathways Platform, to support Morocco in developing its long-term climate strategy. Two phases are planned: the elaboration of a long-term vision and the development of a low-carbon strategy.
- For a government office elaborating its national energy policy: Enerdata was selected to create the BAU national forecasting scenario as basis for BAU CO2 emissions and the corresponding Marginal Abatement Cost Curves to predict and suggest policy measures for reducing future CO2 emissions. Enerdata provided forecasts and detailed reports covering a range of scenarios based on the in-house MACCs model. As a result, the client was gifted a clear platform to assess possible future CO2 emissions and formulate strategic, cost-related abatement decisions.
