In this report for the Committee on Climate Change, the TIAM-Grantham energy system model is used to consider the impact of a ‘dash for gas’ in Western Europe on global energy supply and emissions. The report builds on analysis carried out as part of the AVOID2 project.
It was commissioned to help inform the Committee’s 2016 reports on compatibility of UK onshore petroleum and Scottish unconventional oil and gas with emissions targets.
