- Apply emission and energy intensity standards (Apply emission intensity standards for e.g. cars (gCO2/km), power plants (gCO2/kWh) or appliances (kWh/hour)., Component: Energy conversion, Energy demand)
- Capacity targets (It is possible to prescribe the shares of renewables, CCS technology, nuclear power and other forms of generation capacity. This measure influences the amount of capacity installed of the technology chosen., Component: Energy conversion)
- Carbon tax (A tax on carbon leads to higher prices for carbon intensive fuels (such as fossil fuels), making low-carbon alternatives more attractive., Component: Climate policy, Energy conversion, Energy demand)
- Change the use of electricity and hydrogen (It is possible to promote the use of electricity and hydrogen at the end-use level., Component: Energy conversion)
- Changes in feed ration (Change in the share of grass in the feed rations of cattle, sheep and goats, usually a decrease, meaning grass will be substituted by feed crops and the livestock system will be more intensive., Component: Livestock systems)
- Excluding certain technologies (Certain energy technology options can be excluded in the model for environmental, societal, and/or security reasons., Component: Energy conversion)
- Improved irrigation efficiency (Improved irrigation efficiency assumes an increase in the irrigation project efficiency and irrigation conveyance efficiency., Component: Water)
- Improved rainwater management (Improved rainwater management assumes a decrease in the evaporative losses from rainfed agriculture and the creation of small scale reservoirs to harvest rainwater during the wet period and use it during a dryer period. Both measures lead to more efficient use of water and increased yields on rainfed fields., Component: Water)
- Improvement of feed conversion (Improvement of feed conversion ratio of small ruminants, such as sheep and goats. This means other breeds will be used that need less grass to produce the same amount of meat., Component: Livestock systems)
- Increased livestock productivity (A change in production characteristics, such as milk production per animal, carcass weight and off-take rates, which will also have an impact on the feed conversion ratio; in general, this will be lower in more productive animals, Component: Livestock systems)
- Increased storage capacity (Increasing storage capacity assumes that the total water volume stored in large reservoirs will increase. This can either be established by an increase of the capacity of existing reservoirs, or by building new reservoirs., Component: Water)
- Intensification or extensification of livestock systems (A change in the distribution of the production over pastoral and mixed systems; usually to a larger share of the production in mixed systems, which inherently changes the overall feed conversion ratios of ruminants., Component: Livestock systems)
- Intensification/extensification of livestock systems (A change in the distribution of the production over pastoral and mixed systems; usually to a larger share of the production in mixed systems, which inherently changes the overall feed conversion ratios of ruminants., Component: Livestock systems)
