Preliminary case studies of economy and energy profiles for Ireland during 1979-1990. Final report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6857583

Illustrated is the complete follow-through from the input/output model EXPLOR to the energy demand model (EDM) and the energy flow optimization model (EFOM). The results of the 1985 case study for Ireland have been optimized by means of the EFOM model and software. Optimal final energy flows are compared with the non-optimum initial flows using the minimal total cost of energy supply as the criterion. Six economic profiles for the years 1980 and 1985 are compared with 1974 figures, and EDM results by fuel type and demand vector are considered. The methodology involved in updating and projecting EURECA (European energy consumption analysis) Ireland data based on thirteen exogenous variables is described.
