TEEM: Endogenous Technology Dynamics and Advanced Energy Modelling, for European Commission, DG Research
The main objective of the project was to analyse energy technology and accompanying policy of the EU, by using advanced energy system models emphasising on the endogenous technology evolution dynamics. The project aimed at providing new insights for the EU energy and RTD strategy in the perspective of climate change and acidification targets, by focusing on the interactions between policy instruments and technology evolution, in the presence of growing market competition and uncertainty.
International Journal on Global Energy Issues devotes a special issue on the project: 2000 'Energy Technology Dynamics and Advanced Energy Systems Modelling', Int. J. Global Energy Issues, Vol. 14, Nos. 1-4, pp. 1-403, Guest Editor: Prof. P. Capros.
In this special issue the project is presented through a set of articles: a) undertaken research work regarding technology progress and the endogenous representation in energy modelling b) model applications that aimed at improving policy-oriented understanding of climate change mitigation when endogenous technology progress is considered and c) summary of findings and general conclusions for energy and environment policy, energy technology and energy modelling techniques.
