1 Overview of Bioenergy Scenarios in TIMES modelling Prof. Brian Ó Gallachóir Chair IEA ETSAP TCP Executive Committee IEA-ETSAP IEA-Bioenergy Session, 72 nd IEA ETSAP Workshop ETH Zurich, Dec

2 What is IEA ETSAP? One of 38 IEA Technology Collaboration Programmes 41 years international cooperation on energy systems modelling (since first oil crisis) Develop and maintain (MARKAL and TIMES) tools Assist policy makers to build future energy pathways Focus on key role of technology to meet goals Biannual workshops and training Collaborative research and analyses

3 IEA ETSAP Activity Unique network of Energy Modelling teams from almost 70 countries use MARKAL & TIMES models analyse energy systems and support decision making in energy policy.

4 Key Recent Developments Kazakhstan and Australia have joined ETSAP as Contracting Parties Enel Foundation and GE Energy have joined as sponsors. Japan and USA have reengaged as active ETSAP participants Modelling teams have formed in South Africa, Portugal, China and Pakistan ETSAP providing training to Argentina 2016, Brazil 2017 and Mexico 2018 Improved techniques for modelling interactions between energy systems and i) macro-economy, ii) power systems and iii) society Joint workshops with IEEJ (Japan), Univ of Sao Paolo (Brazil), DoE Fossil Energy (USA) and IEA-GHG TIMES listed as one of the four selected modelling tools in the UNFCC guide for preparing the national communications for non-annex I parties (NDCs provide significant opportunity for capacity building).

5 IEA ETSAP Outputs > 100 publications per annum (including 50 peer review journal papers) from: i) Global Models: incl. IEA ETP model, original TIMES Integrated Assessment Model (TIAM), derived TIAM models, ETSAP-TIAM model ii) Regional Models: Pan European TIMES model, MARKAL TIMES Models for Europe, Asia and North America. Multi-regional models iii) National Models of 32 countries (including China). iv) Sub National Models: Western China, Reunion Island (France), Lombardy (Italy), Pavia (Italy), and Kathmandu Valley (Nepal). v) Local Models for rural areas and cities in Austria, Germany and Italy, other bigger cities such as Madrid (Spain), Beijing, Guangdong and Shanghai (China), Johannesburg (South Africa) and New York City (United States).

29 Minimising Minimise Total System System Cost Costs REFYR y NPV = ( 1+ dr, y ) ANNCOST ( y) y YEARS where: NPV is the net present value of the total cost (the OBJ); ANNCOST(y) is the total annual cost in year y; d r,y is the general discount rate; REFYR is the reference year for discounting (2005); YEARS is the set of years for which there are costs in the horizon

30 Total System Cost Capital Costs incurred for investing and dismantling plant; Fixed and variable Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Costs; Costs for exogenous imports and for domestic resource production; Revenues from exogenous exports; Delivery costs for required fuels consumed by plant; Taxes and subsidies associated with fuel flows and plant activities; Salvage value of plant at the end of the planning horizon; Welfare loss resulting from reduced end-use demands.

31 IEA ETSAP in summary Two workshops per year, one organized together with IEW 3-5 TIMES model training sessions around the world approx 200 teams involved from the whole world access to support and discussion forums jobs within TIMES modelling new tools and analyses are shared close collaboration with IEA, IRENA, Worldbank, etc. documentation: Annex report - Meetings - Projects - Model generator & user interface - Technologies -
