Carbonomics: The GS net zero carbon scenarios – a reality check

Goldman Sachs Research updates its paths to net zero carbon that were introduced in June 2021, reflecting rising emissions and coal use since the 2022 energy crisis and material changes to its Carbonomics cost curve. The analysts present three global paths for de-carbonization by sector and technology, adding a GS 2.0° scenario alongside their GS 1.5° and GS <2.0° scenarios. Goldman Sachs Research translates these net zero scenarios into pathways for emission intensity reduction for 30 key emitting corporate industries, providing an updated framework for gauging corporate emission reduction targets.
