REMIND (Regional Model of Investments and Development) (Marian Leimbach 2010; Luderer et al. 2012; Bauer et al. 2012a; Bauer et al. 2012b; Luderer et al. 2013) is a global multi-regional model incorporating the economy, the climate system, and a detailed representation of the energy sector. It solves for an inter-temporal Pareto optimum in economic and energy investments in each model region, fully accounting for inter-regional trade in goods, energy carriers and emissions allowances. REMIND allows for the analysis of technology options and policy proposals for climate change mitigation.
