Export to calendar

Due to pandemic situation, the IEW board and Fraunhofer ISE have decided to hold the conference as a full virtual conference from Monday, June 14, to Thursday, June 17, (one additional day!). To cover all time zones of the participants, the program, now avialable, is split over different time slots during the four days.

The IEW is a leading conference for the international energy modelling community. In a world of environmental and economic constraints, energy modelling is an increasingly important tool for addressing the complexity of energy planning and policy making. The IEW provides a venue for scholars and researchers to compare modelling tools, discuss modelling advances for emerging energy sector issues, and observe new trends in the global energy sector.

A (non-exclusive) list of potential conference topics is:

  • Reaching net-zero emissions: modelling the transition; sectoral modelling enhancements and linking Nationally Determined Contributions and Sustainable Development Goals with long-term decarbonisation strategies
  • Emerging markets and decarbonisation: modelling future energy services, synthetic fuels and resources analysis for the energy sector in transition
  • Managing power system transitions: addressing flexibility and system aspects for the integration of variable renewables; market design; integrated modelling looking at future energy systems and dealing with short-term issues
  • Technology insights: role of technologies in the energy transitions (e.g., CCUS and negative emission technologies, hydrogen, energy efficiency in demand and supply)
  • Cities and digitalisation: analysing the transition in cities and the impact of smart and digital technologies on the future energy system
  • Socioeconomic analysis of the energy transition: employment, skills, health, investments, consumer bills, integrating behaviour in energy models

The Programme with the list of Keynote speakers is now available on the conference website. 

Registration and detailed information can be found on the conference website: IEW 2021
