Economic-Engineering Modelling of the Buildings Sector to Study the Transition towards Deep Decarbonisation in the EU - 2019
Article
The paper presents a newly developed economic-engineering model of the buildings sector and its implementation for all the European Union (EU) Member States (MS), designed to study in detail ambitious energy efficiency strategies and policies, in the context of deep decarbonisation in the long term. The model has been used […]
Assessing the impacts of setting CO2 emission targets on truck manufacturers: A model implementation and application for the EU - 2019
The European Commission introduced in 2018, for the first time, CO2 emission standards for truck manufacturers, to incite additional reduction in the road transport CO2 emissions; trucks represent the second major contributor to CO2emissions in the EU road transport. This paper presents a model based analysis which simulates the implementation of such […]
