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

Alain Haurie, 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 ...

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

Alain Haurie, 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 ...

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

Alain Haurie, 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 ...

An Oligopoly Game of CDR Strategy Deployment in a Steady-State Net-Zero Emission Climate Regime

Alain Haurie, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

In this paper, we propose a simple oligopoly game model to represent the interactions between coalitions of countries in deploying carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategies in a steady-state net-zero emission climate regime that could take place by the end o ...

Producing Policy-relevant Science by Enhancing Robustness and Model Integration for the Assessment of Global Environmental Change

Alain Haurie, Marc Vielle, Santosh Ram Joshi, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

We use the flexible model coupling technology known as the bespoke framework generator to link established existing modules representing dynamics in the global economy (GEMINI-E3), the energy system (TIAM-WORLD), the global and regional climate system (MAG ...

Potentials of Negative Emissions in the Design of Climate Agreements

Alain Haurie, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

The aim of this paper is to explore the long-term relevance of negative emissions for the attainment of Paris agreement goals. For this purpose, we extend a game theoretic meta-model used to assess the future of Paris agreement to the time horizon 2100 and ...

From COP21 pledges to a fair 2°C pathway

Alain Haurie, 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 ...

Meta-Modeling to Assess the Possible Future of Paris Agreement

Alain Haurie, Alain Bernard, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

In the meta-modeling approach, one builds a numerically tractable dynamic optimization or game model in which the parameters are identified through statistical emulation of a detailed large scale numerical simulation model. In this paper, we show how this ...

Welfare Implications of EU Effort Sharing Decision and Possible Impact of a Hard Brexit

Alain Haurie, 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 ...

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

Alain Haurie, 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 ...

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

Alain Haurie, 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 ...

A Robust Noncooperative Meta-Game for Climate Negotiation in Europe

Alain Haurie, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

In this paper we define and solve a ‘robust game design’ problem that could be used to assess the fair sharing of the abatement burden among the 28 EU countries in their coming climate negotiations. The problem consists in finding a distribution of a globa ...

A systems approche to regional energy Modeling with smart grid integrated distributed energy resources

Alain Haurie, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

We provide an introduction to ETEM-SG, a robust linear programming approach specifically designed for regional energy systems analysis. This model can be used to provide prospective analyses of the long-term (30 years and more) evolution of multi-energy re ...

Assessment of balanced burden-sharing in the 2050 EU climate/energy roadmap: a metamodeling approach

Alain Haurie, Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau

In this paper we propose a non-cooperative meta-game approach to designing and assessing climate agreements among 28 European countries that will be compatible with the EU 2050 climate target. Our proposed game model is identified through statistical emula ...

Modeling Energy and Technology Choices in Smart Regional Energy Systems

Alain Haurie, 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 ...

Impact of uncertain CCS deployment on EU climate negotiations

Alain Haurie, 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 ...
