Adriaan Nuijten Bratislava, March 2006Slide 7 Introduction (3) STEPs objectives To develop, compare and assess possible scenarios for the transport system and energy supplyTo develop, compare and assess possible scenarios for the transport system and energy supply To assess and evaluate the impacts of the scenariosTo assess and evaluate the impacts of the scenarios To use these results to assist in future decisions in the field of land use, transport and energy supplyTo use these results to assist in future decisions in the field of land use, transport and energy supply

Adriaan Nuijten Bratislava, March 2006Slide 8 Introduction (4) STEPs will attempt to answer questions such as What are maximum achievements toward substitution of fossil fuels, in terms of:What are maximum achievements toward substitution of fossil fuels, in terms of: –energy consumption by energy type –greenhouse gas emissions (CO2) –share of fossil and renewable energy Which measures have to be taken to achieve the targets?Which measures have to be taken to achieve the targets? What are the transport impacts of the scenarios on mobility patterns at European, national and local level and their secondary effects?What are the transport impacts of the scenarios on mobility patterns at European, national and local level and their secondary effects? What will be non-transport impacts?What will be non-transport impacts?

Adriaan Nuijten Bratislava, March 2006Slide 12 Introduction (6) Outcomes Phase One: Baseline Research A review of the current state-of-the-art in transport and energy supply Development of a conceptual framework for the effects of the broader socio-economic and technological environment on the use of energy by transport

Adriaan Nuijten Bratislava, March 2006Slide 13 Introduction (7) Outcomes Phase Two: Scenario Definition Scenarios were defined in two dimensions: Energy AvailabilityEnergy Availability –including fuel price growth Policy DimensionPolicy Dimension –what policies to adopt to tackle the challenges of the coming 25 years

Adriaan Nuijten Bratislava, March 2006Slide 14 Introduction (8) Scenario definition Policy dimension split into 4 policy packages:Policy dimension split into 4 policy packages: –No policy intervention (i.e. leave to free market) –Business as Usual –Technology Investment –Demand Regulation Energy Availability follows 2 options:Energy Availability follows 2 options: –Unrestricted Energy Supply –Energy Scarcity

Adriaan Nuijten Bratislava, March 2006Slide 15 No policies, just fuel price Business as usual Demand Regulation Technology invest- ments Mix of Measure- ments Unrestricted energy supply A-1A0A1A2A3 Energy scarcity B-1B0B1B2B3 Pro-active policy behaviour C-1C0C1C2C3 Scenario coherence Yellow:simulated by all models Blue:simulated by selected models

Adriaan Nuijten Bratislava, March 2006Slide 16 Introduction (9) Phase three: Modelling Aim: to use existing models to assess the impacts of the scenarios at two spatial levels:Aim: to use existing models to assess the impacts of the scenarios at two spatial levels: –3 European models –5 regional contexts Existing models used because:Existing models used because: –Results can be viewed in comparison with other modelling exercises –Allowed a wider range of contexts to be considered rather than spending resources on development of new models
