Fig. 8: Marginal abatement cost of carbon for modeled scenarios.

From: Targeted carbon dioxide removal measures are essential for the cost and energy transformation of the electricity sector by 2050

Fig. 8

The pathways targeting warming below 2 °C have relatively lower costs owing to less stringent emission reduction requirements. Additionally, scenarios that assume low CDR availability exhibit higher marginal abatement costs of carbon compared to the HIGH and MODERATE CDR scenarios, particularly under the 1.5 °C pathway.
