===Note on energy use and demand===
We use the words energy demand and energy use interchageably. However, as far as the past is concerned, data are about statistical energy use. For the future, the trends are in some way extrapolated and denote then energy demand, which is supposed in the model to be fully supplied and is therefore considered to be equal to use.

In the subsequent Subpages, we discuss different parts of the model in more detail.

Key policy issues

  • How can energy supply and demand become more sustainable, balancing human development, security of supply, and concerns about climate change and air pollution?
  • What transitions in the energy system would meet long-term climate goals?
  • How are these strategies affected by uncertainties in the energy system?

Introduction

"model component" is not in the list (driver component, pressure component, interaction component, state component, impact component, response component) of allowed values for the "FrameworkElementType" property.
