Technology Developments. ‌ The session on technology developments was chaired by Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxx (CMCC) and presented two papers under embargo at the time. The intervention of Xxxxx Xxxx Xxxxxx (University of Cambridge) "Comparing expert- and model-based probabilistic energy technology cost forecast" was commended for being one of the best papers the discussant had read in the last couple of years. It was noted that there is limited knowledge about the relative performance of expert- and model-based methods for energy technology cost forecast. Comparing past predictions showed that model-based forecasts are more likely to include the observed value, and there is an underestimation of the pace of technology change. The paper also identifies differences in future projections, with expert-based predictions generally being more pessimistic. The faster pace of change may result from structural changes in policy, market and actors. This, in turn, could create growth opportunities and imply that decisions do not reflect the economic opportunities that the policy could catalyse. The second paper, "Improving the economic feasibility of 2°C and 1.5°C emission pathways through R&D", was presented by Xxxx Aleluia Xxxx (CMCC). The modelling exercise shows that drastic action on R&D is needed at the beginning (e.g., energy efficiency, biofuels), and that timing matters often more than the total investment for technologies such as CCS, wind and solar. Geographical differences among countries are also significant. Regions with carbon revenues could invest more in R&D (Asia, Latin America, Africa) even if developed economies have substantial efforts to make in R&D/GDP. In the modelling exercise, carbon tax and GDP loss decrease when R&D is higher. In sum, R&D is not a game-changer but rather an enabler of decarbonisation by lowering carbon prices and total costs. The discussion led by Xxxxx Xxx (Xxxxxxxx University of Technology) concentrated on the relative importance given to explaining the methods compared to the research results. Some of her questions pertained to the definition of optimal investment in R&D and the cost differences between learning by doing and learning by researching (investment in R&D). A participant in the audience inquired as to whether the conclusions on expert- vs model-based energy technology cost forecast could be extended to commercialisation time. Xxxxx acknowledged that the paper did not cover this time-to-market, though it could represent a promising new research p...
