Paper presented at the 25th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, December 10-12, Athens.
This paper gives a brief account of the methodological approach developed for the construction of an integrated regional energy and economic plan for the Cyclades region. The research presented here has been originated towards the elaboration of action activities through a twofold integrated procedure: in the first place, a planning process has been designed, having as a goal the active participation of local administration and representatives of social groups; secondly, a simulation modelling system has been developed, in order to examine thoroughly energy supply, energy demand and economic aspects of the region. Such an approach is quite useful for the explicit definition of alternative policy recommendations, towards an integrated regional energy and economic development.
