They can also follow some user-specified path, if defined `here `_. The paper `Speed of technological transformations required in Europe to achieve different climate goals (2022) `__ defines CO_2 budgets corresponding to global temperature increases (1.5C – 2C) as response to the emissions. Here, global carbon budgets are converted to European budgets assuming equal-per capita distribution which translates into a 6.43% share for Europe. The carbon budgets are in this paper distributed hroughout the transition paths assuming an exponential decay. Emissions e(t) in every year t are limited by
