MENGTECH: Modelling of Energy Technologies Prospective in a General and Partial Equilibrium Framework, for European Commission, DG Research
The objective of this project was the further development of macroeconomic and energy models for the analysis of the complex interactions between economic, energy and environmental issues related to the development of a sustainable energy system. The objective was to review the existing knowledge of energy technologies and implement the characteristics of these technologies in the energy and macroeconomic models considered in the project. The model enhancements focused on a better representation of the competition between new and conventional energy technologies in a medium to long term perspective.
