MATTER 4.2 Input Data Technology BP6

The table on this page contains MARKAL input data for the MATTER 4.2 model. The MATTER 4.2 model was converted from MUSS to ANSWER format in December 1999.
Information regarding the model input is available from ECN, Dolf Gielen (gielen@ecn.nl). More background on this project can be found in a number of recent publications.
