Anticipation

Fossil energy resources are subject to depletion based on physical production of related fuel in the previous period. Because C³IAM solves on a five-year time-step we approximate depletion in intervening years by multiplying the production of each fuel resource by a factor of five. As follows:

$R_{fossil,r,t}=R_{fossil,r,t-1}-5X_{fossil,r,t-1}$

Where R represents fossil energy resource (including coal, oil, and gas) in region r, X represents the production of fossil energy in the previous period.
