Greenhouse gas mitigation scenarios for major emitters: analysis of current climate policies and mitigation commitments - 2023 update

This report by NewClimate Institute, PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) provides an overview of projected greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 25 major emitting economies up to 2030 under currently implemented policies. All Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) updates since our last report represent an improvement on previous versions. The report concludes that 13 out of the 25 countries are on track to meet their current NDCs targets. The remaining twelve countries have an implementation gap; they need to adopt additional policies and follow up on the implementation of already adopted policies to meet their targets.
