Description

This module targets a subset of students who wish to become expert in building, using and critically analysing energy-economic models. This process will involve significant hands-on modelling, and the module will cover: linear programming (LP), single/multi-objective optimisation, technology policy and diffusion, and training on small LP-based optimisation model, LEAP and OSeMOSYS energy systems models.

The module will enable students to develop expert skills in the analysis and critically in the use of key energy modelling approaches. At the end of this module students should be able to:

鈥� Fully critique and evaluate alternate energy-economic modelling approaches

鈥� Understand the potential application of energy-economic models in a range of quantitative and analytical research questions

鈥� Run, analyse and evaluate policy issues using simple energy modelling frameworks
