TIMES-CAC
Coverage: Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan | Model type: TIMES multiregional | Horizon: 2020-2050
The integrated bottom-up partial-equilibrium energy system model of the Central Asian Caspian (CAC) Area, titled TIMES-CAC, assembles the four separate but structurally-consistent single-region TIMES country models of Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan by interconnecting them through the representation of energy flows and emission permits exchanges.
The multiregional model is thought and designed as a comprehensive framework, able to explore national and/or supra-national forces, in a long-time horizon (until 2050), with the aim to test the effects of long-term energy export strategies on the energy system of the CAC countries and analyse trade-off curves between “risk” indicators and key KPIs, such as the system cost, the quantities exported and the corresponding revenues, as well as the emission reduction ambitions.
We have prepared detailed documentation on the model and made it available through the I2AMParis platform. Some results will be also published soon in the result explorer!
TIMES-KZK
Coverage: Kazakhstan | Model type: TIMES monoregional | Horizon: 2010-2050
National TIMES model of Kazakhstan. The model supported the development of a National Strategy for Low Carbon Economic Development (LEDS) in accordance with its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to the global effort to restrain climate change.
