Abstract

This paper reviews a time‐dynamic linearprogramming modeling system designed for quantitative analysis of worldwide energy resource development and processing activities over a 25 ‐ 30 year time horizon. The model includes explicit representation of exploration and production operations for energy minerals, as well as of the downstream supply, conversion and distribution of different energy forms, accounting for interfuel substitution. The uses of this model, which include forecasts of resource development, assessment of new technologies and analysis of energy policies, are discussed. The paper outlines a series of smaller, national or regional energy planning models which can be derived from the worldwide LORENDAS modeling structure and tailored to the needs of individual developing countries.
