IEW 2018The 37th Edition of

International Energy Workshop

19-21 June 2018Gothenburg, Sweden

PROGRAM

InternationalEnergyWorkshop

Energy systems modeling is a growing field of research and an increasingly important tool for addressing the complexity of planning and policy making relating to energy. There are many moving parts that interact in an energy system, and many constraints – concerning economy and environ-ment – to take into consideration when choosing a route forward.

For example, In recent years our research have focused on how to best incorporate energy from renewable sources or increase the use of electric vehicles in current or future systems. How does supply and demand interact with each other? How will different policy solutions impact the system? It’s really important to look at how different components influence each other, so you don’t focus on one pro-blem and miss other aspects.

Most people have the misconception that energy models can predict the future. But that is not the case. The future is impossible to predict given all the knowable and unknowable un- certainty. The science (or art) of ener-gy modeling is about simplifying really complicated realities into problems that are manageable and solvable and to extract useful insights for policyma-kers and for the society. It is not about making projections or forecasts.

At this year’s conference 116 research papers will be presented, and six keynote speakers will provide high

level overviews and summarize the latest research frontiers in three subject areas – climate policy, renewable energy technologies and consumer behaviour.

One of the goals for this year is to bring the gender balance and diversity to this traditionally male-dominated field. This year the conference pro-gram has a perfect gender balance of 50-50 in keynote speakers, program committee, session chairs and volun-teers. Gender balance and diversity are not the ends by themselves, but the means to an end where everyone’s work and contributions are being appreciated and recognized equally.

Two of the divisions at the Department of Space, Earth and Environment – Physical Resource Theory and Energy Technology whose research comple-ment each other when it comes to the field of energy systems modeling – are working together organizing the confe-rence. Not only the faculty and senior researchers devoted their time orga-nizing, reviewed over 250 high-quality submitted abstracts and planned the program, 10 PhD students will volun-teer at the conference. The conference receives sponsorships from many international organizations and Chalmers Energy Area of Advance.

KEYNOTESThomas Sterner is professor of environmental economics at the University of Gothenburg. His main areas of work are on discounting and on instrument design for climate and environmental policy. Within the latter subject applications range from general climate issues to more specific issues of carbon pricing, fuel taxes, carbon capture and storage, abatement of nitrogen oxides through refunded emission payments, policies in developing countries, natural resource issues including management of fisheries, buildings, transport, chemicals, plastics, antibiotics, biodiversity. In short, anything related to circular economy, sustainability or economics of the Anthro-pocene.Thomas Sterner has published more than a dozen books and a hundred articles in refereed journals. In 2012-2013 he served as visiting Chief Economist of the Environmental Defense Fund in New York. For the academic year of 2015-2016, Sterner was elected to the Collège de France.

Reyer Gerlagh received his PhD Economic when working at the Institute for Environmental Studies, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam. He visited Oslo, January-June 2006, by invitation from the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters to work at the Centre of Advanced Studies on the interaction between environmental policy and technology. From 2006 to 2009, he held a chair in Environmental Economics at the Econom-ics Department, School of Social Sciences, University of Manchester, UK. Since 2009, he is Professor of Economics at Tilburg University. From 2011 to 2014, he was coordinat-ing lead author of the fifth assessment report of the IPCC, WGIII. Since 2015, he is joint Head of Department (with Jan Boone) in Tilburg.Reyer Gerlagh has won various prizes including a Bronze Medal at the Interna-tional Mathematical Olympiad (1987), a Silver Medal at the International Physics Olympiad (1988), the Dutch Science Foundation (NWO) prestigious Vernieuwing-simpuls grant (2001), the Energy Journal’s Best Paper Award (2003), and JEEM’s Best Paper Award (2016). He ticked off the marathon from his bucket list in 3:59 (2017).Reyer Gerlagh and Bob van der Zwaan have developed various climate-econo-my Integrated Assessment Models and published numerous papers on climate mitigation, innovation, and CCS.

David S. Bunch is Professor of Management at the University of Califor-nia, Davis. He is an internationally recognized expert on discrete choice modeling methods, which are used to un-derstand and predict consumer choices when they select one product from a competing set. His research interests include new product development and introduction, travel behavior, and vehicle choice, including market potential for alternative fuel vehicles. He has consulted on transpor-tation policy issues for state and federal agencies, public utilities, and the airline industry. He received his PhD in Mathematical Sciences from Rice University (1985).iew2018 Lena Neij Lena Neij is Professor and Director at the International Insti-tute for Industrial Environmental Economics at Lund University, Sweden. Her research is focused on the dynamics of the energy system and the analysis of governance and policies for a more sustainable development. The core issue has been development and assessment of methods for analysing the dynamics of energy systems in view of technical change, i.e. development, introduction, and diffusion of new technology, and policy measures for effecting and accelerating technical change. The research, which has been system based and interdiscipli-nary, has covered energy for sustainable development in general, with a focus on renewable energy technologies and energy efficiency in buildings.

ABSTRACTSThomas SternerAfter ParisThe Paris Agreement was acclaimed as a milestone for climate negotiations. It has also been criticized – as too soft by environmentalists and too constrai-ning by the current U.S. administra-tion, which has decided to leave. The election of President Trump was itself widely interpreted as unexpected, good news for the fossil industry (and less good for the climate). We seek to evaluate the impact of global climate policy making by studying its effect on the stock market value of energy sector firms. In particular, we study the signing of the Paris Agreement and the latest U.S. presidential election. Using event study and impulse indicator sa-turation methods, we show that both events had only moderate effects.

Reyer GerlaghA Theory of Saving the Climate: Policy Lessons 90 Years after RamseyI sketch some historical developments that are fundamental to contemporary thinking about optimal climate poli-cy. The conceptual roots trace back to Ramsey’s (1928) seminal paper on optimal capital investment. The next step is the incorporation of macro-eco-nomic growth in the Cass (1965) and Koopmans (1965) neo-classical models.

The combined framework of growth and dynamic optimal savings enab-led Cass-Koopmans to introduce the concept of optimal economic growth. Nordhaus (1993) then embedded climate change into the macro growth model, and this gave a well-defined concept of optimal climate policy. I label this conceptual framework the Ramsey-Cass-Koopmans-Nordhaus (RCKN) model.

I then briefly present a series of recent papers that build and analyze formally tractable Climate-Economy Growth RCKN Models. I first discuss the carbon pricing rule derived in Golosov et al. (2014), improved by Gerlagh and Liski (2018ab), and extended and tested in vdBijgaart et al. (2016) and Rezai and van der Ploeg (2016).

Finally, I critically confront the RCKN framework with some substantial poli-cy questions to differentiate between robust policy lessons and those more fragile. Policy questions include: How much income are we willing to give up for reducing climate change? How should we distribute the costs of mitigation between the present and the future generations? How should we distribute the costs international-ly? Should we wait with deep cuts for cheap emission reduction options to arrive, or should we induce clean inno-vations by upfront polices? Do we need to adapt our policy recommendations to observed and expected demograp-hic change? Is family planning part of optimal climate policy?

Linda StegMotivation to engage in sustainable energy behaviourAnthropogenic climate change is lar-gely brought about by human activi-ties and can be altered when people reduce fossil energy use. Current approaches to address anthropogenic climate change typically target extrin-sic motivation, by offering incentives to change personal costs and benefits of behaviour. Such incentives run the risk of undermining intrinsic motivation to act sustainably. This is problematic, as intrinsic motivation is a solid source of consistent sustainable energy behavio-ur. Intrinsically motivated people be-have without being coerced or incenti-visized, as doing so is meaningful and makes them feel good. I will discuss which factors and strategies can foster or secure intrinsic motivation to enga-ge in sustainable energy behaviour.

Berit TennbakkHow current end-user tariffs incentivize investments in de-centralized generationWe have modelled the effect of Nordic end-user tariffs on investments in ge-neration (PV) and storage (batteries), and how they affect the behavior and dispatch of end-users. We find that today’s energy tariffs (even without a capacity tariff), incentivize investments in batteries and PV. This could have severe price implications for prices in the Nordic countries, affecting both average prices, daily price shapes, and seasonal variations.

David BunchIncorporating consumer pre-ferences from discrete choice models into bottom-up energy system models using methods consistent with their (shared, underlying) microeconomic theoryAnalysis of climate-change-related policies frequently relies on modeling the behavior of energy systems over a long planning horizon under alternati-ve scenarios. There are many taxono-mies for classifying these models, with one commonly-used dimension dis-tinguishing between top down models that address energy systems within the context of the larger economy (e.g., computable general equilibrium, or CGE models), versus bottom up models with a higher level of detail on the energy system, but with more limited interactions with the rest of the economy (e.g., partial equilibrium, op-timization models such as TIMES/MAR-KAL). A well-known weakness of both types is their unrealistic depiction of consumer market behavior, which can undermine their credibility with policy makers. A frequent practice when using bottom up models is to address this by imposing ad hoc constraints on consumer behavior (e.g., choice of vehicle, lighting, heating, and cooling technologies) based on “expert judg-ment,” which, in turn sometimes rely on results from more behaviorally rich discrete choice (or, discrete-continuous choice) models from the literatu-re (DCMs). However, these models assume the same underlying microe-

conomic-based consumer decision framework on which both top down and bottom up models are also based. By going back to the shared, underly-ing theory, we have derived theoreti-cal relationships leading to practical methods for directly incorporating consumer preferences from DCMs into pre-existing bottom up modeling systems. We demonstrate this using an empirical application on consumer vehicle choice behavior, where prefe-rences from a nested multinomial logit model in an existing model (MA3T) are incorporated into TIMES/MARKAL.

Lena NeijDeployment of new energy tech-nologies and the need for local learningSeveral studies have illustrated and analysed learning processes and the cost dynamics of various new ener-gy technologies, e.g. wind turbines, photovoltaic modules and bioenergy technologies. The studies most often focus on the cost reductions related to the development and production of technology hardware itself; products that today are more or less standar-dized and traded internationally. Less focus has been on cost dynamics related to the deployment process of new energy technologies at the local level. To improve our understanding of the cost dynamics of emerging energy technologies we need to broaden and deepen the assessments of learning and cost reductions.

Modelling Transformative Changes in the Transport Sector

Transport is projected to become the highest emitting sector by 2030 in the 2-degree or below 2-degree scenarios. To understand the futures of transport and their roles in the overall climate abatement strategies, it is critical to incorporate new knowledge, data, ideas and trends and model their system effects and the inter-actions with other sectors. Currently the transport sector is undergoing three major disruptive innovations: electrification, au-tomation, and new-mobility-as-a service (MaaS) such as car sharing, ride sharing, and multi-modal travel integration. These innovations are happening rapidly both in personal as well as freight transport. To the extend how these major innovations will affect transport demand, consumer behaviors, technology adoptions, infra-structure needs and energy supplies are highly uncertain but are mostly missing in most global energy system models.

The International Transport Energy Mod-eling (iTEM https://transportenergy.org), established in 2014, uniquely convenes groups which approach transport and en-ergy from broadly different directions, and with different immediate objectives.  The participating modelling teams are actively involved in developing global transporta-tion scenarios and projections that inform public opinion, industry response and policy formulation in transport planning, energy, and services. We invite iTEM teams and outside experts to share their insights on modeling the three disruptive innova-tions in person and freight transport, i.e. electromobility (including personal trans-port, electric highway for longhaul trucks, and battery electric trucks for small deliv-ery and medium-size trucks for the freight transport), automation, and new-mobility (MaaS for personal transport and smart urban logistics for freight). We will explore low emissions scenarios and estimates of their associated mitigation cost, as well as

examine their system wide impacts on the overall energy system.

Side Event 16:45 – 18:15

Renewable Energy and the Future of Long-Term Energy Scenarios: Emerging Practices and Channels for Policy Impact

Format and discussion This side event will be oriented toward an open discussion with expert panellists and IEW attendees. Following brief introductory remarks and presentation, the session will have two panel sessions, each consisting of brief interventions from three panellists around pre-defined questions. Following these interventions, open discussion will be welcomed from attending experts in the audience around additional examples of best practice and methodological gaps.

Panel session 1: Long-term scenarios for clean energy transition – key gaps and solutions

• What are the key gaps in current scenarios related to the clean energy transition? For example:

• Representation of variable renewable energy

• The coupling of power and other end-use sectors, e.g. transport, industry, etc.

• Innovations in flexibility, e.g. demand side response/management, storage, etc.

• Greater decentralization, e.g. sub-na-tional and municipality-level systems

• Digitalisation• Behavioural change

Will new focus areas of clean energy tran-sition within long-term scenario modelling mean a shift in the type of tools used for scenario development, or how those tools are used?

Panel Session 2: Interface between scenario developers and scenario users

Which types of stakeholders currently have capacity to develop scenarios? Do other types of stakeholders need further enhancement of in-house capacity for

1918

scenario development?

How can the link between the scenario de-velopment community (at different levels, be it national or international) and the sce-nario user community improved? Are there specific examples of best practice?

Event background In 2014, IRENA launched its project “Ad-dressing Variable Renewable Energy in Long-term Energy Planning (AVRIL)”, with the first brainstorm meeting taking place during IEW 2014 in Beijing. The project aimed to bridge the state-of-art modelling practices from research communities to the application of model and scenario planning practices by government planners. Inputs from the modelling community have been critical throughout the project, and result-ed in IRENA’s publication of “Planning for the Renewable Energy Future: Long-term Modelling and Tools to Expand Variable Renewable Power in Emerging Economies” in 2017.

In 2018, to expand upon this work, IRENA started supporting a new Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM) campaign on “Long-term Energy Scenarios (LTES) for Clean Energy Transition”. The campaign was proposed by the governments of Germany and Den-mark, and has now been joined by eight other countries. The campaign is a manifes-to of strong interest from the policymaking community to improve the use of long-term energy scenarios in guiding the clean ener-gy transition.

As IRENA and the research community begin to explore deep decarbonization scenarios further, and the role of low-cost renewables in these scenarios, challenges begin to go beyond the integration of vari-able renewables in power systems, toward issues such as the additional integration of other end-use sector solutions, and assessment of behavioral change due to potentially disruptive innovations enabled by digitalization trends.

Many perceive that the majority of long-term scenarios do not adequately address such issues, and IRENA’s LTES campaign

seek to identify examples of scenarios and methodologies that do explore this new ground. At the same time, governments are increasingly looking for various institution-al setups to better link with scenario devel-opment and communities. For example, in some countries, governments effectively use scenarios developed by the research community to spark political debates, while in others, scenarios are developed by in-house government modelling teams, and used directly as decision making tools.

This side event therefore aims to discuss two topics – first, a self-critical identifi-cation of key gaps in current long-term scenarios with high shares of renewable energy (and possible solutions), and sec-ond, the interface between the scenario development community and ultimate sce-nario users, primarily policy and decision makers.

Outcomes The outcome of the discussion will be consolidated and used as input material for reporting to the Clean Energy Ministerial Meeting in May 2019.

WEDNESDAY 20 JUNE

Side Event 08:00 – 08:45

IEA ETSAP - Book Launch

The IEA Energy Technology Systems Anal-ysis Programme (IEA-ETSAP) is pleased to launch its second book on energy system modelling and climate policies. This book provides a unique perspective on the feasibility of a well-below-2°C world by exploring energy system pathways, tech-nology innovations, behaviour change and the macro-economic impacts of achieving carbon neutrality by mid-century. The transformative changes in the energy tran-sition are explored using energy systems models and scenario analyses that are applied to various cities, countries and at a global scale to offer scientific evidence to underpin complex policy decisions relating to climate change mitigation and interre-lated issues like energy security and the energy–water nexus. It includes several chapters directly related to the Nationally Determined Contributions proposed in the context of the recent Paris Agreement on Climate Change.

In this side event, after an introduction by Prof. Brian O’Gallachoir (University College Cork and Chair of ETSAP Executive Com-mittee) and Dr Maryse Labriet (Eneris), Dr Uwe Remme (International Energy Agency), Dr Massimo Tavoni (Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei) and Dr Sonia Yeh (Chalmers Uni-versity of Technology) will share their view on the book and how it contributes to the current climate debates.

Side Event 12:45 – 13:45

Negative Emissions and Energy System Models

Negative emissions have been a staple of stringent climate scenarios for the last decade. Out of 116 developed cost-optimal climate scenarios associated with the well below 2 °C goal presented in IPCC AR5, 101 require global net-negative emissions from roughly 2070 onwards. To achieve this, Bi-oenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) or other carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies such as afforestation or direct air capture, must be deployed at considerable scales already before 2050 and scaled up beyond. The aspirational goal of 1.5 degrees Celsius, set in Paris agreement, has led to even greater interest in negative emissions as exemplified by the large attendance of the first International Conference on Negative CO2 Emissions

taking place at Chalmers in May 2018 that gathers a wide range of scientists, experts and stakeholders.

BECCS is often employed only or mainly in electricity system in stringent climate scenarios, the sector that also sees a major expansion of variable generation from wind and solar power. Yet the interplay of these technologies has largely gone unexamined. In addition, most of the technologies for providing negative emissions are still in development phase and significant political support is needed to scale them up in the time frame suggested by model scenarios. At the same time the studies of socio-po-litical dimensions of transition to negative emissions indicate low public support and several barriers to deployment.

In this side event, we invite experts of dif-ferent areas related to negative emissions – technological, socio-political and resource availability – to share their views on future developments and key uncertainties as well as on possible improvements of model scenarios and communication of model results.

Side Event 16:45 - 18:15

OSeMOSYS - The Development of the Open Source Community around OSeMOSES and the Importance of its Continental Applications in Supporting Energy Modeling Efforts

A wide range of users has rapidly grown around the Open Source Energy MOdelling SYStem (OSeMOSYS) over the past few years. They include mainly three different categories of people: modellers, develop-ers and policy makers.

This side event will focus on the efforts made by the OSeMOSYS Community, cur-rently under development, in restructuring and organizing itself in order to provide all users with a collaborative, easy to access platform where they can benefit from direct interactions. This platform is meant to provide users with free support for their work, to ensure developers to be correctly acknowledged for their contribution to the development of the tool, and to let policy makers reach out to energy modelling experts and access relevant discussions and analysis.

Moreover, the new OSeMOSYS model for Europe (OSeMBE) will be presented at the side event. This new continental applica-tion will be soon released to the public and it will create the basis for policy makers to get an overview of the EU energy system and its potential for more integration in between countries and for efficiency im-provements on the continental level. Under the H2020 project REEEM, OSeMBE is de-veloped as an engagement model for policy makers, but also researchers and academ-ia. At its launch, the 30 country model will cover the electricity sector only. However, due to its modular structure, each country is modelled as an own region, and its open-ness extensions and enhancements are expected or already under consideration. Its coverage allows OSeMBE to be used for analysis on European policy, national policy and its interaction.

New Capabilities in the Long-Range En-ergy Alternatives Planning System: The Next Generation of LEAP Modeling

LEAP, the Long-range Energy Alternatives Planning system, is a widely used tool for energy systems analysis, integrated resource planning, GHG mitigation as-sessments, and formulating low emission development strategies (LEDS). Designed especially for users in developing countries, it is suitable for application in data-limited environments and provides a graphical interface that allows meaningful use by decision makers and policy analysts as well as modelers.

This side event will provide existing and prospective users a quick refresher of LEAP’s key features, followed by an in-depth look into LEAP’s newest capabilities, including the new Integrated Benefits Calculator (IBC) and improved modeling of land use and bioenergy resources.

The new IBC, included in LEAP 2018, can be used to estimate health (mortality), ecosystem (crop loss), and climate (temper-ature change) impacts of emissions from existing LEAP scenarios. It is particularly useful for examining the multiple benefits of taking coordinated action on long-lived and short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) and local air pollutants. IBC is notable be-cause, for the first time, it makes a complex and highly computing-intensive modeling methodology readily accessible to planners in developing countries.

LEAP 2018 also includes major new capa-bilities for modeling resources based on an assessment of land use and land-use change. These features currently support evaluating biomass energy strategies of the type being considered in a number of Af-rican countries, and form a foundation for future updates that will allow LEAP to be

used for LULUCF inventories and mitigation assessment.

The side event will also survey features currently under development as part of the next generation of LEAP modeling, such as co-optimization of generation and transmission capacity, flexible modeling of energy storage, and step changes in model throughput and performance. These enhancements will be implemented over the coming year.
