Regional Analysis

Projecting sub-national, national and multi-national environmental and economic change under different policy scenarios

Understanding local energy, economic, political and geographic conditions is crucial for any realistic analysis of viable policy options that relate to global change. However, local development plans are often affected by the performance of global markets. Our analytic tools allow us to produce regional analyses while ensuring that impacts from global markets and local development in other regions are adequately represented. We conduct a wide range of high-resolution regional studies at subnational, national, and multinational levels.
