The Policy evaluation module calculates emission levels resulting from the reduction proposals and mitigation actions submitted by developed and developing countries as part of the 2015 {{abbrTemplate|UNFCCC}} Paris agreement ([[Den Elzen et al., 2016]]; [[Rogelj et al., 2016]]). Next, this module analyses the impact of planned and/or implemented domestic mitigation policies, such as carbon taxes, feed-in tariffs and renewable targets, on national emissions by 2030 to determine whether countries are on track with their reduction pledges ([[Roelfsema et al., 2014]]; [[Den Elzen et al. 2015a]]; [[Den Elzen et al., 2016]]; [[Kuramochi et al., 2016]]). The module is used in conjunction with a wide range of evaluation tools developed in cooperation with [[IIASA]] and [[JRC]], such as tools for analysing policy options for land-use credits and surplus emissions. Finally, the PBL Climate Pledge INDC tool  gives a summary of the greenhouse gas emission reduction proposals, domestic policies of major countries and the impact on the emissions by 2030.
