An integrated, long-term economic, energy-market and emissions policy model
In 1980 the US Congress passed legislation creating the National Acid Precipitation Assessment Program (NAPAP), a 10-year research program. NAPAP is a multiagency effort and its organization includes an Interagency Science Committee, an Interagency Policy Committee, and seven task groups. The focus of this paper is on the NAPAP Integrated Model Set (IMS). The IMS must reflect the state-of-science in modeling and must be documented and compared with other approaches in the literature in a NAPAP State-of-Science report. The IMS has been developed for use in the NAPAP assessment planned for 1990. The components of the IMS include economic and energy scenario driver modules, sectoral energy use and emissions models, feedback loops, and integration connections. Each of the model components and the economic and energy drive modules and the integration approach have undergone third party review. 19 refs., 10 figs., 5 tabs.
