Energy-Climate Models

Energy-climate models are advanced computer simulations that analyze how energy systems and climate variables interact over time. They help predict future climate changes by taking into account factors like greenhouse gas emissions, energy consumption, technology development, and policy options. These models assess the impacts of different actions on global temperatures, greenhouse gases, and energy needs, guiding policymakers in making informed decisions. Essentially, they serve as virtual laboratories to understand potential futures, enabling us to plan for sustainable energy use while minimizing climate risks.
