Systems Modelling for Energy Policy addresses the strong and apparently countervailing themes dominating energy policy in the current decade: \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003econcerns about global warming have stimulated an intense and methodologically diverse level of analytical activity aimed ultimately at greater international co-ordination in policy and planning\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003esimultaneously we are witnessing a worldwide trend away from planned national energy policies to new market structures\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e To accommodate these shifts in focus, more comprehensive analytical procedures are needed to address technical challenges in handling large models whilst smaller, policy-specific behavioural models may give greater insight to the strategic challenges involved in maintaining focus on key industry restructuring issues for which past data is not available. This volume provides a comprehensive and up-to-date reference to the range of issues and modelling alternatives that a systems perspective gives to the analysis of energy policy. Practitioners, analysts and researchers will find new studies and comparative modelling insights in this book which are not easily accessed elsewhere.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePartial table of contents:\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Systems Modelling for Energy Policy (D.
