New Energy Externalities Developments for
Sustainability (NEEDS, EC project)
Kick-off meeting of
research stream 2a:
Energy systems
modelling and internalisation strategies, including scenarios
building
(the agenda is attached)
The NEEDS project aims at
evaluating the full costs and benefits (i.e. direct + external) of energy
policies and of future energy systems, both for individual countries and
for the enlarged EU as a whole. 80 participants will work for four years
to improve and merge three methodologies: technical economic programming
modelling of energy systems, Life Cycle Assessment of alternative products
and processes, ExternE. The EC supports the program with about 7M. A 25+
member state MARKAL-TIMES model of Europe is part of the
deliverables.
