Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) have become central tools used in forming long-term global and regional climate mitigation strategies. However, sound policy advice requires improved representations of complex system interactions and thorough validation of model behaviour, in order to increase confidence in climate policy assessments.

Model Documentation
Model Documentation
As part of the ADVANCE project, harmonised model documentation has been elaborated for all energy-economic and Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) included in the project. The documentation is to enhance the understanding of models, as well as the comparability and interpretability of their results. To achieve comparability, model-specific reference cards have been made for all models. The [[reference card]] for IMAGE 3.0 is also presented on this website. If you are interested in model comparison, visit the [http://fp7-advance.eu/content/model-documentation model documentation] page of the ADVANCE project.

Website: http://fp7-advance.eu/
Application type: 5. Scientific research
Role of IMAGE framework: The IMAGE team will lead work on the improved representation of energy demand. In addition, IMAGE will participate in all other work packages, covering topics like: model documentation, heterogeneity, subsidies, taxes, uncertainty, technological learning, renewable integration, life cycle assessment, water energy nexus, infrastructure and policy relevance.
Summary: The ADVANCE project aims to improve the representations of complex system interactions and to thoroughly validate model behavior in order to increase confidence in climate policy assessments.
