  1. ECOCEPEconomic Modeling for Climate-Energy Policy Grant Agreement PIRSES-GA-2013-609642 Karel Janda & Milan Ščasný Charles University in Prague REA Technicalreview meeting Technology Centre ASCR, 13th March 2014

  2. Keyfacts Title: Economic Modeling for Climate-Energy Policy Program: FP7 PEOPLE - International Research Staff Exchange Scheme Scientific panel: Economic Sciences Duration: 48 months (January 2014 – December 2017) Coordinator: Charles University in Prague Type of research : interdisciplinary research, with main focus on quantitative social science methods, and economics in particular Keywords: energy economics; economics of climate change; climate change mitigation; adaptation to climate change; resource and agricultural economics; environmental economics; impact assessment; energy demand; non-market valuation; health benefits; equity Main objective: reciprocal transfer of knowledge between senior research fellows, early- career academics and PhD students to support the evidence-based policy Main content: research and academic staff exchanges of 1 to 12 months duration per visit between the partners of consortium, covering mobility flows between the EU, and the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Africa and Russia

  3. Consortium (17 partners) • North America • Arizona State University • University of California • Cornell University • Harvard University • University of Maryland • McGill University • Oceania, Africa • Australian National University • University of Queensland • University of Auckland • University of Cape Town Czech partner • Charles University Prague (Institute of Econ Studies (IES FSV UK); Environment Center (COŽP UK), CERGE-EI) Europe • Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei • University of Oxford • Fondation Jean-Jacques Laffont, Toulouse Sciences Economiques Russia • The Centre for Economic and Financial Research at New Economic School • Irkutsk State University • Novosibirsk State University

  4. Impact modeling and energy-resource markets • WP3 Energy Resources • To analyse energy security and supply reliability due to the increase in the share of renewable energy • To analyse the potential for bioenergyand examine the energy-food-environment linkages with respect to price and availability • To model strategic energy extraction and investigate the Green Paradox • To understand energy resources markets: the determinants of energy prices • To model energy markets in partail equilibrium framework • To investigate interactions between energy and development and between economic growth and energy production and consumption WP2 Modelling Economic Effects of GHG Mitigation and Adaptation • To develop or extend and update economic modelling tools to assess the impacts of GHG mitigating policies on particular economic sectors and on the economy in general. • To analyse the effect of adaptation on modelling impacts • To improve key parameters of the models by new econometric estimations • To analyse the effects of climate change and incorporate them into the integrated impact assessment models

  5. Examining the behavior and assessing the impacts • WP5 Non-market Effects, Risk and Equity • To derive benefit estimates for non-market impacts of climate change • To analyse health risks attributable to climate change and ancillary effect • To quantify external costs attributable to energy generation technologies • To extend impact assessment models by incorporating the non-economic impact of policies • To analyse distributive effects and inequality (intra-generation equity) • To analyse discounting (inter-generation equity) WP4 Energy Efficiency and Household Behaviour • To analyse the economic, policy and attitudinal factors of residential energy demand and efficiency • To investigate the determinants of household endowment by energy durables; analyse the so-called “direct rebound effect” • To analyse household transportation patterns and mobility, the ownership of passenger vehicles and the potential for electro-mobility • To investigate the public acceptance of climate change related policies and adaptation measures

  6. Deliverables & Milestones • Publication in peer-review journals, WP series and edited volumes, or PhD theses • Lecture texts and presentations • Attendance at lectures, workshops and seminars at host institutions • A post-trip report • Kick-off meeting (M1) • A digital web-based tool ready (M2) • Web-based platform for reporting (M2) • Internal evaluation of secondments, trainings and the transfer of knowledge (M14,26) • Organisation of a scientific workshop (M36) • Disseminate research results among decision-makers (M48) • Final report (M48) • Annual milestones & activities • Report on the secondments • Planning of joint events, presentations at workshops • Reporting of publication and presentations

  7. Coordination and Management WP1 Coordination • Partnership Agreement • Web-based tool for secondments calendar and reporting • Annual meetings • Template for post-trip reports • Financial reports • Secondments assessment based on the post-trip reports (annual) and their evaluation in M14 & M26 Project management • Project Coordinator (CUNI) • overall project management, Prof Karel Janda • assisted by a Deputy Project Coordinator, Dr. Milan Ščasný • supported by the management team in the day-to-day management • administration, reporting and monitoring by a Project Manager • In assistance with • Standing Executive Committee • Supervisory Board • Local Committees • Work Package Leaders • Scientific and Policy Advisory Committee

  8. Coordination and Management • Project Coordination • Project coordinator (PC) • Deputy PC • Management team for the day-to-day management • Project Manager responsible for administration, reporting and monitoring of ECOCEP activities • Standing Executive Committee (SEC) • decisional body of ECOCEP • 7 members> the PC (chair), Deputy PC, WP leaders, 2 members representing 2 non-EU regions • Supervisory Board (SUPERB) • to ensure the effectiveness of the exchange programme, the optimal choice of exchanges and high quality of the knowledge transfer • 18 members> one representative from each ECOCEP partners, plus PC and Deputy PC • Local Committees • to collect and select the best candidates to participate in the WPs • up to 3 members chaired by one of them nominated by each institution • Work Package Leaders • to coordinate the delivery of all tasks within their WP • Scientific and Policy Advisory Committee (SPAC) • to provide external guidance • nominated by the PC

  9. Impacts Social • focus on early-carrier researchers, paying attention for involving female students • social and distributional impact analysis • inequality analysis to understand energy poverty, adverse social effects of regulation, social exclusion due to potentially socially adverse policy effects Environmental • evidence-based efficient regulation • to design cost-efficient and environmental effective solutions Scientific • deepen knowledge, widen skills, increase knowledge • decrease fragmentation, isolation and compartmentalisation of national climate and energy research efforts Technical • increase skills in modeling Commercial • none, we conduct basic research
