Energy Scenarios for East Asia, 2005–2025

Sergey Paltsev and John Reilly

Chapter 7 in From Growth to Convergence, 2009, pp 211-242 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The East Asian region is among the fastest-growing regions of the world and its share of the global economy and of energy use has increased substantially over the past 30 years. Thus, continued economic growth in East Asia will strongly affect the world demand for energy. The goal of this chapter is to provide several illustrative scenarios of economic development and energy use in the region. For this purpose the MIT Emissions Prediction and Policy Analysis (EPPA) model (Paltsev et al., 2005) is used. It is a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the global economy, and has been widely used to study climate change policy and its implications for energy system and technology development.
