International Energy Workshop 2014

The International Energy Workshop (IEW) is one of the leading fora for the international energy modelling research community. Researchers from IIASA's Energy and Ecosystems Services and Management Programs will present new work.

The International Energy Workshop (IEW) is one of the leading conferences for the international energy modelling research community. In a world of environmental and economic constraints, energy modelling is an increasingly important tool for addressing the complexity of energy planning and policy making. The IEW provides a venue for analysts to compare quantitative energy projections, to understand the reasons for diverging views of future energy developments, and to observe new trends in global energy production and consumption. The now annual IEW was first co-hosted in 1981 by IIASA and Stanford (Read More).

The 2014 Annual workshop, hosted in Beijing by the Energy Research Institute (ERI) and the China University of Mining and Technology, Beijing (CUMTB).
