Abstract:
The transition to a climate neutral society such as that envisaged in
the European Union Green Deal requires careful and comprehensive
planning. Integrated assessment models (IAMs) and energy system
optimisation models (ESOMs) are both commonly used for policy
advice and in the process of policy design. In Europe, a vast landscape
of these models has emerged and both kinds of models have been
part of numerous model comparison and model linking exercises.
However, IAMs and ESOMs have rarely been compared or linked with
one another.
