A Model for Energy Consumption and Energyrelated Emissions from the Danish Production Sector - INDUS/EMIS

Abstract

INDUS/EMIS is a forecasting model for energy consumption and energy-related emissions from the Danish production sector. It has been developed for the Danish Ministry of Energy, which uses the model in energy planning. INDUS/EMIS is a sub-model of the macroeconomic model ADAM that is used for economic planning in Denmark. As a sub-model INDUS/EMIS takes the economic forecasts given by ADAM and transforms these into forecasts for energy consumption, though these forecasts are not fed back into ADAM. The energy forecasts provided by INDUS are therefore only partly consistent with the economic forecasts, and the energy forecasts may differ from what is implicitly included in the economic forecasts. For complete consistency a link from the energy model to the economic model is needed, however, as a sub-model this link does not exist.
