Short Characterisation Green-X Model

This presentation gives a brief overview on the Green-X model, a specialised energy system model, geographically bounded to the European Union and its neighbours, that has been used in several impact assessments and research studies related to renewable energies at a national and at a European level. The core strengths of this tool are its detailed representation of RES resources and technologies, and its detailed incorporation of energy policy instruments. This allows various policy design options to be assessed with respect to resulting costs, expenditures and benefits as well as environmental impacts.
