Integrated Assessment Models
 IAM: (Wikipedia Definition)
Integrated assessment modelling (IAM) or integrated modelling (IM) [a] is a term used for a type of scientific modelling that
tries to link main features of society and economy with the biosphere and atmosphere into one modelling framework.
William Nordhaus
(Wikipedia)
 Strengths (what it is useful for)
 Systemic view (more or less )
 What-if scenarios
 Global energy / economy /
climate coupling
 Limits
 Not a forecast engine
 Feedback loop:
 Policy is a parameter that get
optimized from “outside”
 Heavy use of time discount
(when used for optimization)
IAM examples
• DICE (Nordhaus & al)
• ISGM (MIT)
• ACCL (Banque de
France)
• IMACLIM (Cired)

MIT Integrated Global System
Modeling (IGSM) Framework
The IGSM framework consists primarily of
two interacting components—the
Economic Projection and Policy Analysis
(EPPA) model and the MIT Earth System
model (MESM). The EPPA model simulates
the evolution of economic, demographic,
trade and technological processes involved
in activities that affect the environment
at multiple scales, from regional to
global.
The Social Cost of Carbon Explorer is a
data tool that allows users to generate
updated estimates of the social cost of
carbon (SCC), which is the dollar
estimate of the economic damages from
emitting one additional ton of carbon
dioxide into the atmosphere. The SCC
Explorer is powered by the open-source
RFF-Berkeley Greenhouse Gas Impact
Value Estimator (GIVE) model which iis
based on Four modules: Socioeconomic,
Climate, Damages, Discounting (for SCC)
IMACLIM (Cired)
IMACLIM-R is a hybrid recursive general
equilibrium model of the world economy
that is split into 12 regions and 12
sectors. The base year of the model is
2001 and it is solved in a yearly time
step. IMACLIM-R is built on the GTAP-6
database that provides, for the year
2001, a balanced Social Accounting
Matrix (SAM) of the world economy. Like
any conventional general equilibrium
model, IMACLIM-R provides a consistent
macroeconomic framework to assess the
energy-economy relationship
It represents the interactions between
sectors and countries over time
through the clearing of commodities
markets
A tool to build climate change scenarios to
forecast Gross Domestic Product (GDP), modelling
both GDP damage due to climate change and the
GDP impact of mitigating measures. It adopts a
supply-side, long-term view, with 2060 and 2100
horizons. It is a global projection tool (30
countries / regions), with assumptions and results
both at the world and the country / regional level.
Five different types of energy inputs are taken
into account according to their CO2 emission
factors., Total Factor Productivity (TFP), which is
a major source of uncertainty on future growth
and hence on CO2 emissions, is endogenously
determined,

 System Dynamic: (Wikipedia Definition)
System dynamics (SD) is an approach to understanding the nonlinear behavior of complex systems over time using
stocks, flows, internal feedback loops, table functions and time delays.
 Highlights from LtG (World3)
 The human economy is now using many critical resources and producing
wastes at rates that are not sustainable. Sources are being depleted. Sinks
are filling and, in some cases, overflowing.
 There is such an enormous amount of coal that we believe its use will be
limited by the atmospheric sink for carbon dioxide. Oil may be limited at
both ends
 World3 is a model designed to explore the behavior modes of an
interconnected, nonlinear, delayed-response, limited system. It is not
intended to spell out an exact prediction for the future or a detailed plan for
action
 Gaya Herington, “Five Insights for avoiding Global Collapse”
 Post-validation of LtG model, 30 years later …
 Earth for All: A Survival Guide for Humanity
 Two novelties included in the model are the Social Tension Index and the
Average Wellbeing Index.
Approximative difference between IAMs & SDEM
• IAMs are data-driven (calibrated from past data)
• Risk of overfitting when projected in the next century
• SDEM are designed from « first principles »
• Crude calibration / focus on orders of magnitude

Global Warming Impact : The Unknown Unknown
 A synthesis of hundreds of
published research articles
 Compared to the trajectory of economic
growth with no climate change, their
average projection is for a 23 percent loss
in per capita earning globally by the end
of this century
 Which means that if the planet is five
degrees warmer at the end of the century,
when projections suggest we may have
as many as 50 percent more people to
feed, we may also have 50 percent less
grain to give them
 We will, almost certainly, avoid eight
degrees of warming; in fact, several
recent papers have suggested the
climate is actually less sensitive to
emissions than we’d thought, and
that even the upper bound of a
business-as-usual path would bring
us to about five degrees, with a likely
destination around four.

Energy Resource Model (M1)
M1 captures the answer to the questions « How much fossil resources do we have ? At which costs? »
Four categories
 Oil
 Natural Gas
 Coal
 Clean (hydro/solar/wind/nuclear)
Each resource is defined through:
 For fossil energies, its inventory chart
(available Toe according to sell price)
 For clean energies, a growth potential curve
(max capacity in the future year, according to
manufacturing and resource constraints)
 A “max capacity” (max yearly output)
 A constraint about the speed at which this capacity
may evolve + a heuristic formula that adjusts the
capacity each year

M1: Energy Production
Parameters
Equations (functions & differential state)
Data Model
Two kinds of sources of primary energy (e):
• FossilFuels :Oil, Goal, Gas
• One combined “Clean” (nuclear & renewable)
Energy sources are described through the max
capacity (that varies), the yearly output (depending on
supply-demand) and, for fossil fuels, the known
reserves
The main component of M1 is the Supply equation that
describes output as a function of price
Supply(e:Fossil,p,Cmax) = min(Cmax, max(0,Oe(1) * min(1,(Cmax / Ce(1))) *
(Pe(1) + (p – Pe(1)) * sensitivity(e)) / Pe(1))
State Variables:
• Oe(y): output (production) in Gtoe
for energy e at year y
• Ce(y): max capacity in Gtoe for energy e
• Ae(y): added capacity for energy e
through transfers (M3)
• tOe(y): total output in Gtoe from years 1 to y
• Pe(y): price in $ for 1 toe for energy e at year y
• UDz(y): demand (unconstrained consumption) for
zone z of energy e
• Gz(y): gdp for zone z on year y
• maxCapacityGrowth(e,y) : for clean energy y, expected max caoacity in Gtoe that may be added during
year y (yearly production)
• Inventory(e,p) : expected reserves (at year 1) for fossil fuel e with a market price p
• threshold(e) : part of current reserve when suppliers of e reduce their output to match reserves (strong
influence on PeakOil date)
• targetMaxRatio(e) : expected ratio between (max) capacity and output
• maxGrowthRate(e): percentage of capacity that can be added at most in a year for fossil e
• sensitivity(e) : price sensitivity factor for energy e
• co2perTon(e) : CO2 emissions to produce one toe of energy e
Supply(e:Green,p,Cmax) = min(Cmax,
(Cmax * targetMaxRatio(e) * (p / (Pe(1) * (1 + ( G(y-1) / G(1)) * sensitivity(e)))
Capacity(e:Fossil,y,p) =
min( min(expectedOutput(e,y), Ce(y – 1) * (1 + maxGrowthRate(e)) + Ae(y-)),
Ce(y – 1) * ( Inventory(e,p) - tOe(y – 1))/ threshold(e)))
Capacity(e:Green,y,p) =
min(expectedOutput(e,y), Ce(y – 1) + maxCapacityGrowthRate(e,y) + Ae(y-1)),

Data-Driven Parameters

Energy Consumption Model (M2)
M2 captures the answer to the question
« How much energy is needed for the economy at a given cost ?»
The heart of this model is (for each source & each zone)
a histogram of value production:
 Decomposition of value product (Y axis)
 Over “segments” of energy usage (X axis), sorted by energy
intensity
 This (virtual) decomposition is the base for telling how each world
zone will react to price increases
The net behavior is represented by four curves :
 Economy dematerialization trend (kW/$)
 Cancelation (% of activity that stops because price is too high)
 Economic loss due to cancelation (GDP impact of cancel)
 Margin reduction
In addition, we represent the expected efficiency gains:
 “Savings“ (energy efficiency) – reduction of consumption at iso-activity
 Savings are a “policy” (decision ahead of time that gets implemented)
 Substitution towards another form of energy (using the matrix provided by M3)
 The last two options triggers associated investments
Energy redistribution policy is a factor that lowers the pain of cancellation but
reduces the economic efficiency
Energy consumption for a given price
decreases according to cancelation
(upper histogram), energy savings and
substitution (M3: one energy source to
another)

through “homogeneous slices” to state 4 beliefs:
Energy density, cancel, GDP & margin impact
• M2 factors efficiency gains through technology
through the “saving” parameter for each zone

Energy Transition Model (M3)
M3 captures the answer to « How fast can we substitute one form of primary energy to another ? »
Substitution matrix
 Oil to Coal to Gas to Clean
 6 flows (N x N-1 / 2)
 A substitution matrix as 6 coefficients (share of
energy consumption that should be transitioned),
depending on year (policy)
 The matrix takes into account the “source to vector”
possible paths (cf. illustration) – It should also factor
the constraints from natural resources such as steel.

GDP Model (M4, World Economy)
M4 represents the question:
« which GDP is produced from investment, technology, energy and workforce ? »
Description
Economy is seen as a set of productive assets that
require energy and human capital to operate
Economy growth require investments that are a
fraction of results
We use a crude exponential growth model
• Output is linked to energy (cf. M2 + redistribution)
• Demography is factored through energy consumption
• Assets grow as a result of investments
• Energy transition investments are subtracted from total investments to
compute growth investments
• GW Crises are modeled two ways : a reduction of productive assets and as
”redirections of zone policies” (M5)
• The model computes the consumption without savings that drives the GDP and
the consumption with savings that drives CO2 emissions
• This model is applied to 4 “Blocks” : US, CN, EU, RoW

M4: Physical versus Immaterial GDP
 The model uses “current dollars” as monetary unit (for GDP and energy price)
 “2100 dollars” is an abstract notion …
 High GDP growth in the past 30 years reflects the growing importance of “immaterial”
economy
 The “CCEM4” model (4th iteration) adds two outputs to evaluate the “material” side:
Steel production (proxy of material goods) Wheat production (proxy of Agriculture)

Ecological Redirection (M5)
M5 answers the question « What kinds of redirection should we
expect from the IPCCs global warming consequences ?»
Bruno Latour’s redirection concept tells that this is a non-
linear coupling.
There is no “point A to point B” trajectory, but reactions along
the way, based on the catastrophic events that will unfold
M5 is made of three components:
 A simple projection from IPCC to link CO2 output (from M2-M3) to
expected temperature rise (using RCP 4.5, 6 and 8.5)
 A random, discrete function that define “pain thresholds” as CO2 &
temperature rise
 A redirection model (very naïve) with three components
 Increase into energy redistribution (feedback to M2)
 Increase CO2 tax (versus planned trajectory)
 Economic crisis (feedback to M4)
 Production capability damaged by warming
(e.g. agriculture)
 Workforce disruption (from strikes to massive death tolls of
natural catastrophes and wars)

model
Impact of price
elasticity parameters
Very large influence of projected GDP, less on CO2 emissions
Moderate influence since energy price is mostly a signal in CCEM to adjust
supply and demand (feedback loop on steel price)

Sensitivity Analysis : Fossil Fuel Reserves The amount of fossil energy
is a key driver to the global
warming
The impact is high for US and
Europe, less for China who
rely on coal and green energy
The speed at which green
energy capabilities can be
added (belief) is critical in
the low fossil fuel scenario
The other critical belief is
the speed of the possible
energy transition (switching
“primary sources”) since
fossil energies is close to 80%

High Fossile Reserves

Sensitivity Analysis : Carbon Tax Carbon tax works to reduce
the output of fossil energy,
resulting in improved
warming …
At a strong cost on GDP
growth …
T$ 224 -> T$ 209 -> T$ 175
(2100 GDP)
Because of its energy density,
the Chinese economy would
be the most impacted:
T$ 69 -> T$ 52 -> T$ 20
This simulation with a
homogeneous Carbon tax
throughout the world is
probably unrealistic
The relative positioning of
Zone economies (without
taxes and with energy) is a
belief (input parameter)

4. Next Steps

Global Warming Impact : The Unknown Unknown
 A synthesis of hundreds of published research articles
 Compared to the trajectory of economic growth with no climate change, their average projection is for a 23 percent
loss in per capita earning globally by the end of this century
 Warmer oceans can absorb less heat, which means more stays in the air, and contain less oxygen, which is doom
for phytoplankton—which does for the ocean what plants do on land, eating carbon and producing oxygen—which
leaves us with more carbon, which heats the planet further. And so on. These are the systems climate scientists call
“feedbacks”; there are more
 Which means that if the planet is five degrees warmer at the end of the century, when projections suggest we may
have as many as 50 percent more people to feed, we may also have 50 percent less grain to give them
 We will, almost certainly, avoid eight degrees of warming; in fact, several recent papers have suggested the
climate is actually less sensitive to emissions than we’d thought, and that even the upper bound of a business-
as-usual path would bring us to about five degrees, with a likely destination around four.
 “Climate tipping points - too risky to bet against”
 Lenton & al, Nature 2019
 Main reference for Stern, Stiglitz & Taylor
 Politicians, economists and even some natural scientists have tended to assume that tipping points in the Earth
system — such as the loss of the Amazon rainforest or the West Antarctic ice sheet — are of low probability and
little understood. Yet evidence is mounting that these events could be more likely than was thought ….
 Models suggest that the Greenland ice sheet could be doomed at 1.5 °C of warming, which could happen as soon
as 2030. Thus, we might already have committed future generations to living with sea-level rises of around 10 m
over thousands of years. …. At 1.5 °C, it could take 10,000 years to unfold3; above 2 °C it could take less than
1,000 years

IPCC AR6 (2023) Climate Change & its Working Group
WG2 & WG3: full of surprising beliefs …
Scenarios & RPC
• P127 : Shared Socio-Economic Pathways
summary in box SPM1 page 10
• 50-55 GtCO2-eq in 2030 – iso 2015, to be confirmed 
Impact (WG II)
• Close to zero « dollar impact figures » - cf page 14.
Why the world listen to « crazy optimistic IAM »
simulations  ….
Mitigation
• Solar and Wind Mitigation potential for 2030 seems over-estimated (CCEM Belief #2)
page 27 : 8 GtC02 saved in 2030 => remove 2.7 Gtep fossil (average)
=> 10 times the capacity added from 2010 to 2020 (all clean energies combined)
• Page 54 : simplistic view of energy costs (without vector or storage impact)
• Zero recommendation of CO2 tax (same comment about IAMs)

Global Warming Impact and SCC (Social Cost of Carbon)
 Social Cost of Carbon
 Wikipedia: The social cost of carbon (SCC) is the marginal cost of the impacts
caused by emitting one extra ton of carbon emissions at any point in time.
The purpose of putting a price on a ton of emitted CO2 is to aid people in
evaluating whether adjustments to curb climate change are justified.
 Range of price : 50$ to 500$/t (100-200$/t is the current preferred estimate)
 Link with companies “benchmark price” of CO2
 ”Comprehensive evidence implies a higher social cost of CO2”
 Rennert & al, Nature 2022
 SCC at 185$/t, mostly agriculture and mortality
 Very wide dispersion of agro-impact (FUND model,
from Canada to Southeast Asia)
 SCC is computed by Monte-Carlo (naïve) simulation
 Simulations are based on GIVE model
 Damages (simple interpolation of published tables )
– Health (Cromar et al), Agriculture (Moore et al),
Energy dropdown (Clark et al),
Coastal impacts (small, cf Diaz)

Social Cost of Carbon (SCC) and IAMs
 “The economics of immense risk, urgent action and radical change:
towards new approaches to the economics of climate change”
 Stern, Stiglitz and Taylor, 2022
 Our first task in this paper is to argue that, as a methodological approach, the optimization framework embodied in
IAMs is inadequate to capture deep uncertainty and extreme risk, involving potential loss of lives and livelihoods
on immense scale and fundamental transformation and destruction of our natural environment
 Damage functions, where impacts can be immense and there are large irreversibilities (the importance of which is
limited in the absence of uncertainty), non-linearities, and complex feedback effects, giving rise to tipping points
 The absence of a scientific basis to estimate probabilities of outcomes associated, say with climate change of 3.5
degrees Celsius, well beyond anything experienced, combined with the sensitivity of IAM analyses to those
probabilities, in turn has profound implications for the policy relevance of IAMs: they provide no guidance on how
to resolve differences in key judgements around risk and uncertainty
 The conservative/incomplete nature of impact assessment in IAM
is well-documented
 Swiss Re Institute
 -11% in 2050 at +2C, -14% at +2.6C, -18% at +3.2C
 Rule of thumb applied to Moody’s model : x 10 
 Moody’s “The Economic Implication of Climate Change”, 2019
 For US, equivalent to Nordhaus’s finding !
+1.5C : 0.7% impact on GDP, 2C: 1.3%,4C:3.6%
 The world map is interesting

CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism)
and Game Theory
 a policy tool designed by the European Union to mitigate the risk of carbon
leakage, where companies might move carbon-intensive production to
countries with looser emission constraints, or where imported goods are
cheaper because they are produced with higher carbon emissions, compared
to goods made within the EU. Here's a breakdown of how CBAM works:
 CBAM requires importers of certain goods into the EU to pay a carbon price. This price is intended to be equivalent to the carbon price that
would have been paid if the goods were produced under the EU's carbon pricing rules
 The mechanism calculates the carbon cost based on the greenhouse gas emissions embedded in the imported good
 During the initial phase, companies importing goods into the EU will need to start reporting emissions for these goods. Eventually, they will
have to comply by purchasing carbon certificates corresponding to those emissions
 Critical for Michelin, especially because of the two steps process (raw materials
before finished goods) which receiving heavy criticism (CBAM is not adopted yet)
 How can players influence each others ? To promote cleaner energy sources ?
 Positive (part of model) : Balance of Trade export economy growth
 Protectionism and trade barriers : key, but hard to evaluate (2024 goal for CCEM v5)
 CBAM : better (more specific) but difficult to implement

 E.g.; experimental/evolutionary validation of TIT-for-TAT strategy in a repeated prisoner dilemma game
 Developed for Telco market competition simulation (3G, 4G, Free) and other complex SD models

Playing the « Warming Game »
 Policies (tactical parameters for GTES = BR in game theory)
 Linear function from pain to two percentages [min%,max%]
 Strategy = goals for each zone
 GDP, Pain level, World temperature (vector of weight that defines the goals of zones)
 GTES will look for a Nash Equilibrium between the four players that maximizes the
weighted goals
Example of Questions :
 What is the benefit of an “EU green policy” facing D. Trump and Xi Jinping ?
 Is there an anticipation benefit (“suffer earlier, suffer less”) ?
 What are the levers for player to influence each others (trade barriers, CBAM, …) ?

• Carbon tax will not be adopted uniformly
• CBAM tools will be required
• (climate) Crisis will occur and are
necessary to change
• Energy transition is a critical factor,
• Thus a “2050 carbon-neutral ambition”
is a sound goal for enterprises

Fossil Energy Input Parameters (Oil, Gas, Coal)
// inventory : use 2020 numbers + 2010_2020 consumption (40Gtep)
// in 2010 : inventory at 193, 2020 : 242 (+45 +40 consumption)
// key design : inventory at current price in 2010 = 70% of reserves ?
// we add +50GTep if price go very high (hard case = conservative)
Oil :: FiniteSupplier( index = 1,
inventory = affine(list(400,193.0), list(600, 290.0),
list(1600, 350), list(5000, 450.0)),
capacityGrowth = 6%, // adding capacity takes time/effort
threshold = 193.0 * 90%,

production = Oil2010,
co2Factor = 3.15, // 1 Tep -> 3.15 T C02
co2Kwh = 270.0, // each kWh yields 270g of CO2

steelFactor = 10%) // part of investment that is linked to steel
Major Open Questions
1. Inventory (Reserves = f(price))
• Growth of Coal is unclear
• Reserves’ estimates seem to stabilize
2. Price sensitivity parameters
• Define the energy selling policies
• Price is only a signal in CCEM
3. Known knowns 
• Second eye is welcome to check for
mistakes
• Google + Web as the source

Clean Energy (Nuclear, Hydro, Solar, Wind)

list(1000,0.15),list(6000,0.3)),
horizonFactor = 110%, // steers the capacity growth
production = Clean2010,
capacityMax = Clean2010 * 110%,
sensitivity = 50%, // expected price growth expressed
as % of GDP growth
investPrice = 11.0, // nuclear =
1000e/(MWh/y), green = 800-1500e/MWh (will go down)
price = 550.0, // 50e/MWh (nuc/ charbon) -> 80e in 2020
co2Factor = 0.0, // What clean means :)
co2Kwh = 0.0,
steelFactor = 40%) // typical for 1MW wind: 3.2Me cost,
// 460T steel, 1.7Me cost of steel
1. Growth capacity ( = f(price))
• Disputed topic
• Question of steel / raw materials
• But price of solar is going down …
• Shared with other energies
• Influence on price trajectory
3. Known knowns 

1. Energy Transition Matrix
• A key parameter ! Defines which
energy transition is feasible
• Must be realistic about the
change of energy vector …
2. Energy Efficiency in the future is
a belief …

1. Economy data
• GDP / investments (harder)
• Balance of Trade between 4
Blocks
2. Energy Investments
• Not so easy to consolidate …
• And to forecast (cf. previous)
3. Iron density of GDP growth
• Very hard to find a consensus
between Economists
• To be discussed with O. Vidal

1. CO2 accumulation model
• Naïve but sufficient
• Warming from CO2 extracted
from IPCC
2. Impact from Warming
• A key hot topic with no consensus,
hence a key belief
• My average of various papers
3. Pain from Warming impact
• Computed but not used yet for
retroaction
• Hence the sensitivity is arbitrary
