Generic model

The energy demand model has aggregated formulations for some sectors and more detailed ones for others. First, a description of the generic model is provided, which is used for the service sector, part of the industrial sector (light) and in the category ‘other sectors’. Subsequently, discuss the more specific technology-rich descriptions of residential energy use, heavy industry and transport are discussed – indicating how the description in these models relates to elements of the generic model.

In the generic model, demand for final energy is calculated for every region (R), sector (S) and energy form (F, heat or electricity) according to:
