GX & Decarbonization Research
This page provides an English interface to the gxceed GX paper corpus. The corpus aggregates papers from 14 contributing scholarly metadata sources and uses AI-assisted classification to identify signals related to measurement, policy narratives, outcomes, implementation, industrial adoption, and verification.
The goal is not only to discover papers, but to observe how GX research is distributed across research substance, implementation narratives, external expectations, implementation substance, and judgment formation.
Summaries are AI-assisted. Always refer to the original paper for authoritative conclusions.

Preprint🇪🇺 EuropeZenodo2026#AI × ESGDOI
Carbon pricing is the cornerstone of European climate policy, yet its evaluation remains trapped in an average-effects paradigm. The most comprehensive meta-analysis to date, covering 80 ex-post evaluations across 21 carbon pricing schemes, establishes that carbon pricing reduces emissions by 5% to 21% in the first years of operation, but also documents that heterogeneity in outcomes is driven by policy design and context rather than by price levels or instrument type (Döbbeling-Hildebrandt e...
