Description

The MARKAL (MARKet ALlocation) model is being used by eleven nations in the IEA (International Energy Agency) Energy Technology Systems Analysis Programs (ETSAP). It models the possible evolution of national or regional energy systems over the next four or five decades, with environmental requirements being established as constraints or objectives. Rather than forecasting the future, this model evaluates various means to influence it. Initial findings from Canada (Quebec), Japan and The Netherlands are presented in this paper. (TEC). 1 tab., 5 figs., 4 refs
