Anticipation |
REMIND represents a number of energy conversion technologies using bioenergy as feedstock. If REMIND is run stand-alone, bioenergy resource potentials are represented as time-dependent and region-specific supply cost-curves derived from MAgPIE (Klein et al. 2014). To account for the sensitivity of resource potentials to carbon pricing, REMIND uses different supply curve parameterizations in baseline and climate policy scenarios. Direct and indirect GHG emissions (CO2 and N2O) induced by bioenergy production are accounted for using specific emission factors.
Alternatively, the coupled REMIND-MAgPIE system allows for a detailed analysis of the impacts of bioenergy use for climate change mitigation and land use.
