- Apply emission and energy intensity standards (Apply emission intensity standards for e.g. cars (gCO2/km), power plants (gCO2/kWh) or appliances (kWh/hour)., Component: Energy conversion, Energy demand)
- Avoiding deforestation (Here comes description)
- Capacity targets (It is possible to prescribe the shares of renewables, CCS technology, nuclear power and other forms of generation capacity. This measure influences the amount of capacity installed of the technology chosen., Component: Energy conversion)
- Carbon tax (A tax on carbon leads to higher prices for carbon intensive fuels (such as fossil fuels), making low-carbon alternatives more attractive., Component: Climate policy, Energy conversion, Energy demand)
- Change the use of electricity and hydrogen (It is possible to promote the use of electricity and hydrogen at the end-use level., Component: Energy conversion)
- Excluding certain technologies (Certain energy technology options can be excluded in the model for environmental, societal, and/or security reasons., Component: Energy conversion)
- Expanding Reduced Impact Logging (Increasing the share of produced wood yielded with Reduced Impact Logging (RIL) practices instead of conventional logging practices., Component: Forest management)
- Increase forest plantations (Increase the use of wood from highly productive wood plantations instead of wood from (semi-) natural forests., Component: Forest management)
- Increase natural carbon storage (It should be noted that policy measures to increase carbon storage often generate certain co-benefits, such as the restoration of watershed and wildlife habitats, and the prevention of soil erosion.)
- Mitigate environmental changes (Mitigating environmental changes, such as climate change, biodiversity loss and water stress)
- More sustainable forest management (Sustainable forest management aims for maintaining long-term harvest potential and good ecological status of forests (e.g. the nutrient balance and biodiversity). This can be implemented by (i) enlarging the return period when a forest can be harvested again; (ii) only using certain fractions of the harvested biomass and leave the remaining part in the forests., Component: Forest management)
- Reducing health risk ((primary) prevention, i.e. eliminating or reducing the health risk)
