摘要:The OSeMOSYS project proposes an open-access energy modeling tool and its relative simplicity makes it appealing for academic research and governmental organizations to study the impacts of policy decisions on an energy system in the context of possible severe greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions constraints. In real life such limitations on emissions levels may result in a reduction of some end-use demands (for example for the transportation of passengers-kilometers by cars). The current OSeMOSYS model does not allow this type of behaviour and all end-use demands must be completely satisfied. This paper presents how an elasticity of demand capability can be embedded in an OSeMOSYS analysis in order to allow the possibility to endogenously reduce some end-use demands to satisfy GHG emissions objectives.
