The approach which uses a core model structure with different additional modules built around this core structure allows the overall model to be flexible and can be adapted to a range of different policy issues. Terms of use: Documents inWe illustrate the usefulness of this approach in a policy experiment which looks at the interaction between emissions trading scheme and the promotion of renewable energy targets in the European Union climate policy.

Disaggregating electricity generation technologies in CGE models: A revised technology bundle approach with an application to the U.S. Clean Power Plan

“…EPA estimates that annual compliance costs for the Clean Power Plan will peak in 2030 at roughly 8.1 billion (2007$). 23 A rough back-of-the-envelope calculation suggests the annual average costs are around 6.5 billion (2007$). The U.S. Chamber of Commerce (2014) investigate the economic consequences of reducing U.S. power sector CO 2 emissions 40% below 2005 levels by 2030.…”

“…It has been used in various versions of the GTEM model [6,15], and the WIATEC model [23], among others. The technology bundle approach disaggregates the electricity sector between generation and non-generation activities, and combines the competing generation technologies through a CRESH function [1].…”
