Description

Description

This repository contains the scenario parametrization for the European Energy Vision 2060 (EU EnVis-2060) scenarios, which have been created by the European research projects Man0EUvRE (funded by the CETPartnership) and iDesignRES (funded by the European Commission). The data is formatted in the IAMC data format (see https://pyam-iamc.readthedocs.io/en/stable/data.html). 

The underlying raw data, including all sources and assumptions used for each data point can be found at the Global Energy System Model (GENeSYS-MOD) data repository (see https://github.com/GENeSYS-MOD/GENeSYS_MOD.data). 

 

Alongside the scenario parametrization, there is also included a short report about the qualitative storylines, the workflow, and some key assumptions as part of Deliverable 1.2 of the Man0EUvRE project, as well as the Q2Q (qualitative to quantitative) matrix used in the process of the parametrization.
