Linking environmental and economic statistics: The greenhouse gas emission accounts approach analyzes greenhouse gas emissions by economic activity. INFRAS analyzed and processed data for Eurostat for this purpose. This economic perspective on emissions makes it possible to assign a greenhouse gas footprint to goods and services.

Eurostat's new monitoring report shows how the European Union is progressing towards the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. The 2026 edition assesses short- and long-term trends using more than 100 indicators, and places the findings in the context of EU policies. INFRAS has again conducted a review of five SDGs.

Social dynamics and climate challenges are closely intertwined. This is the conclusion of two analyses on governance and gender that INFRAS prepared for the Swiss Confederation. The analyses highlight the implications for development cooperation.

What will Switzerland look like in the year 2100? How will greenhouse gas emissions develop over the next 70 years? A federal research project identifies possible socio-economic and political developments - and, under the leadership of INFRAS, models potential greenhouse gas emissions.

What does the expansion of data centers mean for Switzerland? On behalf of the Swiss Energy Foundation, INFRAS is investigating the local impact of data centers on the energy system. The aim is to identify possible solutions for a sustainable expansion of data centers.

The methodological framework for determining environmental costs developed by the German Federal Environment Agency (UBA) is an internationally recognized standard. On behalf of the UBA and in cooperation with partners, INFRAS has carried out two research projects were conducted as a basis for the update. 

Capital flows towards sustainable change: How effective is the use of climate data in asset management today? A white paper highlights the challenges and key considerations in selecting and using climate metrics.

Consistent and comparable National Nitrogen Budgets: INFRAS has revised international guidelines and developed new templates. The revision was carried out on behalf of the German Environment Agency and in cooperation with the International Expert Panel on Nitrogen Budgets.

Whether it's capturing and removing CO2 emissions or circular economy: various ways are being sought to reduce emissions that are difficult to avoid. Addressing hard-to-abate emissions is crucial for Switzerland to achieve its net-zero target. INFRAS is involved in a research consortium that aims to make solutions concrete and scalable.
