What is ENPEP-Balance? • One of approximately 8-10 other models by Argonne • ENPEP-BALANCE is a nonlinear equilibrium model • Simulation approach allows ENPEP-Balance to determine the response of various segments of the energy system • Relies on a decentralized decision-making process • Creates an equilibrium model represented by the energy network. Ministry of Energy, Jamaica, W.I.
ENPEP Energy System Equilibrium Ministry of Energy, Jamaica, W.I.
Main Objective of ENPEP Module To simulate the energy market and determine the energy supply and demand balance over a long-term period of up to 75 years. For Jamaica’s case, the period 2005 – 2030 is used. Ministry of Energy, Jamaica, W.I.
Major Characteristics • Applications • Energy policy analysis • Energy market projections • Natural gas market analysis • Carbon emissions projections • Projections of criteria pollutants (SO2, NOX, etc.) • Carbon mitigation studies • ENPEP features • price-elastic demands • fully integrated economic cost calculations • enhanced error reporting • visible structure created Ministry of Energy, Jamaica, W.I.
Jamaica Energy Network A complete energy network for a country or region may consist of a large number of sectoral energy networks. Jamaica’s network topology includes various sectors*: • Bauxite Industry • Domestic Energy Market • Residential Consumers • Refinery • Oil Distribution • Electricity Generation • Distribution • Imports • Sugar Industry *The Ministry established an “ENPEP Working Committee” to modify the existing network and present a network topology that is highly reflective of existing energy systems.

Limitations of the Model • Solution generated year-by-year and is said to be “myopic”, which for short term oriented energy market may actually be an advantage. • Demand-driven • Not set up with sufficient detail • Can be insensitive to price • Ease of use in the Windows interface conceals the sub-models. “ENPEP-Balance is a tool – and a tool should be used wisely” Ministry of Energy, Jamaica, W.I.
ENPEP Summary • Framework for developing institutional capacity • government and non-government organizations • agencies • Model is adaptable and can be viewed as a planning tool • developing the country’s long-run energy strategy • generating scenarios according to user specifications • necessary to informing policy decisions. • Jamaica’s case study created an appropriate energy network • Analyses both energy and environmental systems Ministry of Energy, Jamaica, W.I.
