9 Methodological Tools: Economy Name IMACLIM-R Input variables / Exogenous parameters Output variables - input-output coefficients - prices - production capacities - quantities of output - saving rate - exports/imports - public policies (debt, public investment, fiscal system) - allocation and level of investments - capital intensity - income - labor productivity - final demands - growth parameters - evolution of public debt (increasing returns to scale, productivity growth, autonomous and endogenous technical change) Type of model/ Internal calculations recursive general equilibrium (including static equilibrium and dynamic relations for capital growth, technical change, demography, etc.) Level of Aggregation flexible in number of sectors and countries.

10 Methodological Tools: Energy Demand Name MAED Input variables / Exogenous parameters Output variables Type of model/ Internal calculations Level of Aggregation - social factors: demography (pop), useful energy demand parametric model useful energy: - equipments: energy efficiency, - specific use of - energy forms - thermo uses: ind, res, - prices - fuels for transport: - fuels for motors - non-energet. Use - coke

11 Methodological Tools: Energy Supply Name MESSAGE Input variables / Exogenous parameters Output variables Type of model/ Internal calculations Level of Aggregation - useful energy - consumption of resources, - inter-temporal - electricity - prices: primary energy primary, secondary, final energy, optimization model - gas and final energy, technology, imports, exports, stocks - biomass operation costs - needs for investment - coal - emissions, environmental - oil and derivates - sugar cane, - alcohol,

23 Conclusion: Additional Policies Energy efficiency in industry and transport Natural gas in industry + residential and commercial sectors Hydropower potential to be tapped Ethanol: domestic production + exports Biodiesel in transport sector Renewable power generation in remote areas (access to electricity for rural population) No major negative impacts are expected, instead, employment generation associated to biofuels and energy efficiency are the main positive macroeconomic impacts anticipated in this scenario.
