Worldwide impacts of climate change on energy for heating and cooling

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Santosh Ram Joshi

The energy sector is not only a major contributor to greenhouse gases, it is also vulnerable to climate change and will have to adapt to future climate conditions. The objective of this study is to analyze the impacts of changes in future temperatures on t ...

Physical and economic consequences of sea-level rise: A coupled GIS and CGE analysis under uncertainties

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Santosh Ram Joshi

This paper develops a modelling framework that links GEMINI-E3, a multi-regional, multi-sectoral computable general equilibrium model with a cost-benefit analysis approach at local level using geographical information system tools to assess the physical an ...

A Robust Meta-Game for Climate Negotiations

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

This paper deals with an application of the robust equilibrium concept in game theory to the assessment of the possible international agreement on climate that could be achieved in the conference of the parties negotiations organized by the UNFCCC. It is s ...

A Linear Programming Model for Power Distribution with Demand Response and Variable Renewable Energ

Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

A linear programming framework is proposed to model distribution network characteristics, and market clearing processes for flexible load and distributed energy resources providing reserve and reactive power compensation. One shows that the Nash equilibriu ...

ETEM-SG: Optimizing Regional Smart Energy System with Power Distribution Constraints and Options

Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

This paper gives a detailed description of the ETEM-SG model, which pro- vides a simulation of the long term development of a multi-energy regional energy system in a smart city environment. The originality of the modeling comes from a representation of th ...

Defining deep decarbonization pathways for Switzerland: an economic evaluation

Philippe Thalmann, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

This paper aims at simulating deep decarbonization pathways for Switzerland. The analysis relies on macro-economic simulations of GEMINI-E3, a computable general equilibrium model used to assess the energy and economic impacts of a Swiss low carbon society ...

GCC Countries Strategic Options in a Global Transition to Zero-Net Emissions

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

Using a multi-level perspective approach combined with top-down macroeconomic models, we analyze the situation of the GCC countries in the perspective of a global transition to zero-net emissions before the end of the century. Based on these analyses, we p ...

From COP21 pledges to a fair 2°C pathway

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

At COP21, about 160 countries proposed the so-called INDCs that define GHG abatement objectives by 2030. While encouraging, these commitments are not ambitious enough to achieve the 2°C threshold by 2100, and further negotiations are needed for sharing the ...

Combining Stochastic Optimization and Monte-Carlo Simulation to Deal with Uncertainties in Climate Policy Assessment

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

In this paper we explore the impact of several sources of uncertainties on the assessment of energy and climate policies when one uses in an harmonized way stochastic programming (SP) in a large scale bottom-up (BU) model and Monte-Carlo simulation (MC) in ...

Energy Security: a robust optimization approach to design a robust European energy supply via TIAM-WORLD

Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

Energy supply routes to a given region are subject to random events, resulting in partial or total closure of a route (corridor). For instance: a pipeline may be subject to technical problems that reduce its capacity. Or, oil supply by tanker may be reduce ...

Impact of uncertain CCS deployment on EU climate negotiations

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

In this paper we propose a stochastic non-cooperative meta-game approach to assess the role of uncertain CCS deployment on climate agreements among 28 European countries. The game model is identified through statistical emulation of a large set of numerica ...

Overcapacity in European power systems: Analysis and robust optimization approach

Michel Bierlaire, François Maréchal, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Stefano Moret

The planning of national power systems is traditionally based on long-term forecasts of electricity demand and fuel prices. However, over such long time horizons (20-50 years), these forecasts often prove to be inaccurate. As an example, wrong projections ...

Reaching Paris Agreement goal through carbon dioxide removal development: A compact OR model

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

A compact operations research (OR) model is proposed to analyse the prospects of meeting the Paris Agreement targets when direct air capture technologies can be used or not. The main features of the model are (i) the representation of the economy and energ ...

Welfare implications of EU effort sharing decision and possible impact of a hard Brexit

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

In this paper, we evaluate the recent developments of European climate policy from the perspective of the 2050 European commitments with regards to GHG emissions reduction. We use a non-cooperative meta-game approach for assessing European burden-sharing i ...

PLASIM-ENTSem v1.0: a spatio-temporal emulator of future climate change for impacts assessment

Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

Many applications in the evaluation of climate impacts and environmental policy require detailed spatio-temporal projections of future climate. To capture feedbacks from impacted natural or socio-economic systems requires interactive two-way coupling, but ...

Modeling Energy and Technology Choices in Smart Regional Energy Systems

Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

This paper deals with the modeling of the long term evolution of regional energy systems in a smart city and smart grid environment. It is shown that demand response and distributed grid energy storage, driven by dynamic pricing schemes, based on locationa ...

Economic Assessment of the Development of CO2 Direct Reduction Technologies in Long-term Climate Strategies of the Gulf Countries

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

This paper proposes an assessment of long-term climate strategies for oil- and gas-producing countries-in particular, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) member states-as regards the Paris Agreement goal of limiting the increase of surface air temperature t ...
