Daruber hinaus nimmt das Nachhaltigkeitsszenario internationale Ansatze zur Realisierung sozial vertraglicher Masnahmen zur Verringerung des Energieeinsatzes und zur Forcierung des technischen Fortschritts auf.

Special emphasis is given to tax policies for stimulating these technologies and to the evaluation of the macroeconomic impacts of these policy options. The main result of our research indicates that a well designed tax reform package will not only encourage the implementation of the desired technologies but also have a positive impact on conventional economic indicators as GDP and employment.

In order to achieve such a global target, a mitigation pathway has to limit global emissions to about 50 percent below 1990 levels by 2050. We want to investigate in this paper the radical change of the energy system that would be needed for entering the pathway for halving emission levels by applying a global analytical tool. A comprehensive data base with a global coverage including socioeconomic data as well as data on energy and emissions has been set up. By dividing the world into six countries and regions which account for two thirds of global emissions and a region for the rest of the world we investigate in an analytical framework the key drivers and parameters of the energy system which refer to population dynamics, economic activity, energy and carbon intensity. Based on assumptions about the diffusion and convergence of these key parameters we derive implications for long-term emission reduction targets.

The paper presents an overview about alternative parametrization procedures and suggests an extension of research and reporting strategies in the direction of data-analytic approaches complementary to the traditional structural modelling teclmiques. In addition reporting of sensitivity analyses of the effects of variations in the sample size and alternative structural prior restrictions is proposed. An example of a data-analyti c modelling approach for a national economic database is included.
