    Solution concept Partial equilibrium (price elastic demand)
    Solution method Simulation
    Anticipation Simulation modelling framework, without foresight. However, a simplified version of the energy/climate part of the model (called FAIR) can be run prior to running the framework to obtain data for climate policy simulations.

    In addition to resources like energy carriers and agricultural products, some other commodities have been explicitly modeled in the IMAGE framework.
