About the role
Background to the Project
The project “Pathways to(wards) carbon neutrality for climate, environment, health, and socio-economic co-benefits (PANTHEON)” funded by the European Union’s Horizon program has been awarded to UCL. This project aims to develop an integrated participatory modeling approach, which integrates the multisectoral input-output model (MRIO) and Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model, to assess the potential of various technologies to contribute to decarbonization in the energy and industrial sectors and evaluate their socio-economic and environmental impacts along global value chains. It focuses on mature solutions like wind and solar, as well as emerging technologies such as green hydrogen and supercritical CO2 enhanced geothermal systems (EGCS), assessing their readiness, deployment, efficiency, emission reduction potential, and costs. The investigators are a multidisciplinary team with decarbonisation experts in carbon accounting , economic analysis, and environmental assessment.
