ENERGY-EMISSIONS MODELING

Item #d92nov80

MARKAL-MACRO: A Linked Model for Energy-Economy Analysis (BNL-47161), A.S. Manne (Brookhaven Nat. Lab., Upton, N.Y.), C.O. Wene, 46 pp., Feb. 1992. NTIS: DE92-009378; $17.

Describes an experiment in energy-economy model linkage intended as an improvement over existing methods for energy strategy assessment, and for analyzing the technologies proposed for reducing environmental risks such as global warming or regional air pollution. MARKAL uses a systems engineering (physical process) analysis; MACRO is a macroeconomic model with an aggregated view of long-term economic growth.

Item #d92nov81

Use of the Edmonds-Reilly Model to Model Energy-Sector Impacts of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Control Strategies (PNL-SA-20471), D.W. Barns (Battelle Pacific Northwest Labs., Washington D.C.), J.A. Edmonds, J.M. Reilly, 61 pp., Jan. 1992. NTIS: DE92-010150; $19.

Documents results of the model using scenarios provided in connection with the 1991 Energy Modeling Forum, which compared the results of several modeling teams using common assumptions to examine the energy sector impacts of strategies to control greenhouse gas emissions. Discusses the potential pitfalls in attempting to assess the cost of emission reductions using the model.

Item #d92nov82

Use of the Edmonds-Reilly Model to Model Energy-Related Greenhouse Gas Emissions (PNL-SA-20478), D.W. Barns (Battelle Pacific Northwest Labs., Washington D.C.), J.A. Edmonds, J.M. Reilly, 43 pp., Jan. 1992. NTIS: DE92-010035; $17.

Documents results of the model using scenarios provided for an OECD project comparing global models.
