Methodology for linking technology innovation to energy system models

This methodology will focus on defining different energy system configurations representing various aspects and degrees of technology innovation to be able to investigate the implications on cost projection pathways. Further factors such as technology learning, cost projections, efficiency curves will be considered to assess and anticipate the impact of different technologies of the SET-Plan in an energy system. The methodology will be adjusted to “technology rich” Integrated European Model used in REEEM (WP6) and its ability to enable detailed investigations of the roles and system wide impacts of technology.
