IIASA project: Energy Demand changes Induced by Technological and Social innovations (EDITS)

The EDITS network brings together experts of various disciplines to regularly discuss about and engage in the multi-faceted energy demand research. The EDITS community works together based on common interest in interlinked topics, on transferring methodological knowledge, and on exploring modeling innovations across demand-side models. Levels and structure of energy

The EDITS network brings together experts of various disciplines to regularly discuss about and engage in the multi-faceted energy demand research. The EDITS community works together based on common interest in interlinked topics, on transferring methodological knowledge, and on exploring modeling innovations across demand-side models.

Levels and structure of energy and resource demands are increasingly recognized as key critical determinants of feasibility, timing, and costs of climate mitigation actions and their SDG synergies and tradeoffs. EDITS undertakes a deeper understanding of demand-driven energy system change, at global and granular levels. The aim of the experts and researchers forming the EDITS network is to identify gaps and potentials to enhance modeling, analyzing, and communicating the demand-side solutions for climate mitigation and the SDGs.

POLIZERO project final report

POLIZERO was funded by the Energy-Economy-Society research programme of the Swiss Federal Office of Energy. Led by the Energy Economics Group of the Laboraotry for Energy Systems Analysis at the Paul Scherrer Institute PSI and the Technoeconomics of energy systems laboratory of the University of Piraeus Research Center, it combined stakeholder input, energy modelling

Multiple pathways towards sustainable development goals and climate targets

The study presents three different sustainable development pathways, all of which avoid dangerous climate change and enable substantial progress towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The scenarios were quantified by four different modelling teams participating in the SHAPE project, comprising two “full-system” integrated assessment models (REMIND-MAgPIE and IMAGE) and
