DPET – Decarbonisation Policy Evaluation Tool DPET

The INNOPATHS Decarbonisation Policy Evaluation Tool (DPET) is an online interface resulting from work carried out under the EU H2020 funded project INNOPATHS. Its main goal is to systematically synthesize in an easily searchable manner what is known – and what is not known – about the impact of different policies used to accelerate low-carbon energy transitions on a set of seven performance indicators.

The DPET is intended to be a helpful reference for policy makers, academics and general users as it allows them to foresee possible trade-offs of decarbonisation policy – and thus to mitigate them – or co-benefits. We review the scientific evidence on decarbonisation policy, determine which studies meet rigorous standards, and summarize and synthesize the findings. We hope you will find this useful.
