Cross sectoral action needed NOW to cut emissions

Key insights from analysis

•4 main areas for cutting carbon – buildings, power, transport, industrial processes

•Abatements roughly 50/50 energy efficiency + low carbon energy

•Cost by 2020 €60-€90/tMtCO2e falling to €40 /tCO2e in 2030

•This equates to £100 per household per year by 2030
