Oil Market: Transition or Evolution? The Emissions Prediction and Policy Analysis Model
Reilly, J., S. Paltsev and F. Choumert (2007)
Modeling the Oil Transition: DOE/EPA Workshop on the Economic and Environmental Implications of Global Energy Transitions, (D. Greene, editor), Oak Ridge National Laboratory Report ORNL/TM-2007/014, Oak Ridge, TN, p. 125-129

Abstract/Summary:

About the Workshop: The global energy system faces sweeping changes in the next few decades, with potentially critical implications for the global economy and the global environment. It is important that global institutions have the tools necessary to predict, analyze and plan for such massive change. This report summarizes the proceedings of an international workshop concerning methods of forecasting, analyzing, and planning for global energy transitions and their economic and environmental consequences. A specific case, it focused on the transition from conventional to unconventional oil and other energy sources likely to result from a peak in non-OPEC and/or global production of conventional oil. Leading energy models from around the world in government, academia and the private sector met, reviewed the state-of-the-art of global energy modeling and evaluated its ability to analyze and predict large-scale energy transitions.
