Climate scenarios: Oxford Economics’ methodological approach explained
Topic: Following the launch of Oxford Economics’ new Global Climate Service we look forward to walking you through the methodological approach to our climate scenarios in detail. Our bespoke scenarios are modelled using new climate policy levers on the Global Economic Model (GEM). The GEM stimulates a connection across three key factors: the climate, the energy system and the global macroeconomy. The model’s enhanced framework draws on our econometric analysis of the climate damage function – a relationship between temperature and productivity – and our latest research on the economic impact of carbon pricing.
Please note that we will be holding one webinar each for EMEA, Americas and APAC friendly time zones:
- EMEA – Tuesday 9th November| 10:00 GMT
- Americas – Tuesday 9th November | 16:00 EST
- APAC – Tuesday 9th November | 10:00 HKT

Felicity Hannon is an Associate Director in the Stress Testing, Scenarios and Modelling Team. During her time at Oxford Economics, Felicity has focused on macroeconomic modelling and scenario analysis aimed at quantifying the impacts of various exogenous shocks (e.g. Covid-19, trade tariffs). More recently, Felicity has used scenario analysis to quantify the economic impacts of mitigation policy and global warming. She has also overseen the expansion of the climate and electricity set up on the Global Economic Model. Previously, Felicity worked as a senior policy advisor at HM Treasury.

Outlook gospodarczy dla Polski w świetle prognoz dla gospoarki światowej i europejskiej
A divergence has opened in the world economy, with the US faring much better than China and the eurozone on the growth front. During the webinar, we will shed light on our thinking about world and European outlooks and their influence on the CEE region in general and the Polish economy in particular. We will scrutinize both growth and inflation prospects, views on monetary and fiscal policies as well as implications for FX and bond yields performance.

The path to industrial decarbonization
Progress in de-carbonising industrial activity has been slow relative to other high-emitting sectors in the economy. Nonetheless, recent studies show that the technological potential to electrify is high across most manufacturing processes. Where electrification is not technologically feasible, low-carbon hydrogen may be a viable de-carbonisation tool. In this webinar, we assess which industrial sectors are likely to electrify, and which may need to look to alternatives, in order to de-carbonise. We will also consider some of the factors hampering the pace of the energy transition in industry.
