  1. Edi Assoumou NicklasForsell Valérie Roy Centre de Mathématiques Appliquées, MINES ParisTech Chair de Modélisation Prospective au Service du Développement Durable Modeling biomass availability in MARKAL/TIMES energy system models Séminaire sur la Géoprospective– Ile Sainte Marguerite, France • 4 – 5 April 2011

  2. Outlineof the presentation • Prospectiveenergy system models • Spatial energysystemsmodels • Conclusions

  3. Prospective energy system models • Energy system models represent the production chain of energy sources Transport Transportation Oil wells Refinery Transport Industrial Coal mine Power plant Commercial Hydro plant Transformation Nuclear plant Residential Wind plant

  4. Prospective energy system models • TIMES/MARKAL is a family of prospective energy system models developed by the ETSAP organization Resources Conversion technologies Demand Import Oil Oil refinery Transport sector Gas Distribution Residential sector Gas heating Import Gas Gas power plant Commercial sector Nuclear power plant Power transformation Industrial sector Coal Coal power plant

  5. Prospective energy system models • Allow us to study: • Utilization of technologies • Future energy mix • Future integration of developing technologies • “Least cost” solutions for reaching climate targets • World Energy Outlook- 2008 (IEA)

  6. Prospective energy system models • Most energy system models are non-spatial • They do not consider: • Location of supply of energy sources • Location of power production • Location of demand • Transport distances • Reunion island • G. Guerassimo, N. Maïzi et al., "Iles et Énergie: un paysage de contrastes." Les Presses-MINES ParisTech, 2008.

  7. Spatial energysystemsmodels • Analyzed the bio-energy system in: • France • Sweden • Biomass is a vital source of renewable energy • Cost and supply of biomass sources is highly spatial

  8. Spatial energysystemsmodels • Spatial aspects in BIO-SE model: • Regional division • Supply of biomass sources • Separate mountainous and flat regions • Biomass division • Apply highly detailed GIS data • Accurate harvest costs • Accurate transport distances • AB • C • D • E • F • G • H • I • K • M • N • O • S • T • U • W • X • Y • Z • AC • BD • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • – • Stockholm • Uppsala • Södermanland • Östergötland • Jönköping • Kronoberg • Kalmar • Gotland • Blekinge • Skåne • Halland • Västra Götaland • Värmland • Örebro • Västmanland • Dalarna • Gävleborg • Västernorrland • Jämtland • Västerbotten • Norrbotten

  9. Spatial energysystemsmodels • Spatial aspects in BIO-SE model: • Regional division • Supply of biomass sources • Separate mountainous and flat regions • Biomass division • Apply highly detailed GIS data • Accurate harvest costs • Accurate transport distances

  10. Conclusions • Prospective energy system modelscanbeused to analyze the development of energysystems • Spatial information may be integrated into prospective energy system models • Increases model accuracy and the scope of analysis • Opens up for further multi-disciplinary studies
