IEA-ETSAP Community
The IEA-ETSAP community leads a major initiative for open source solutions for energy scenario modeling needs. It functions as a consortium of member country teams and invited teams that actively cooperate to establish, maintain, and expand a consistent multi-country energy/economy/environment/engineering (4E) analytical capability. Its backbone consists of individual national teams in nearly 70 countries, and a common, comparable and combinable methodology, mainly based on the MARKAL/TIMES family of models, permitting the compilation of long term energy scenarios and in-depth national, multi-country, and global energy and environmental analyses.
About IEA-ETSAP
The Energy Technology Systems Analysis Program (ETSAP) is the longest running Technology Collaboration Programme of the International Energy Agency (IEA). ETSAP currently has as contracting parties 18 countries, the European Commission and two private sector sponsors.
It has been continually dedicated to the advancement of integrated energy system modelling platforms for more than 35 years. ETSAP promotes and supports the application of technical economic tools at the global, regional, national and local levels. It aims at preparing sustainable strategies for economic development, energy security, climate change mitigation and environment.The Contracting Parties conduct joint research and employ the ETSAP Tools to advise their national governments at the highest levels.
IEA-ETSAP partners meet twice a year to share knowledge, discuss the research agenda and carry-out a common program of work. The workshops are open to all interested parties, and any country can petition to become a contracting party of ETSAP.
As part of its outreach activities, ETSAP collaborates with many other research teams throughout the World, participates in various global forums (EMF 22, for example), and makes its Newsletter and its Workshop Proceedings available online to the public at large.
