Ideal, long-term approach: Bottom-up Community Top-down Modellers

provide list with best-guess input data run models & provide results request specific technology data feedback on results regarding feasibility, portfolio and costs

Goal: More realistic representation of policy space. Based on the Memorandum of Common Understanding from Oslo: www.ipcc-wg3.de/scenario-memo

Short- & Long-term Coordination of Scenarios

  • “Ideal” iterative process between bottom-up &

top-down is too late for SRREN

  • A new coordination body is needed
  • The catalytic role of the IPCC requires a

continuous interaction between IAMC and IPCC

  • At the SRREN Expert Meeting in Oslo a list of

modelling topics were developed

  • For AR5 more model comparison exercises are

needed

Role of IAMC as seen from IPCC perspective

The IAMC is the professional scientific body for Integrated Assessment. For IAMC it is important to:

  • have clear rules of participation
  • be transparent
  • be representative of scientific community

slide-10

  • Discuss new challenges for AR 5
  • Decide what scenarios are

required for AR5 – IAMC communicates this to the scientific community

  • Sharing information

Ex-post clustering of scenarios defines a storyline for each cluster. Clustering is essential to derive policy relevant messages.

Issues to be covered by modellers:

  • Limited availability of technologies
  • Uncertainty
  • Delayed participation
  • Bottom-up & top-down integration
  • Hindcasting
  • Timing of policy instruments
  • Multiple policy instruments for multiple market failures

(“price-only-crowd” vs. “technology policy is needed”)

Almost Final Remark

The IPCC is the honest broker between experts and decision makers in business, politics and civil society. The IPCC should be policy relevant without being policy prescriptive.
