CAKE at the EU Conference on Modelling

On the 24th and 25 th of November 2021  CAKE/KOBiZE/ IOŚ-PIB team has a chance to participate in a conference organized by the EC Competence Centre on Modelling (CC-MOD) entitled “2021 EU Conference on modelling for policy support: collaborating across disciplines to tackle key policy challenges”. During the two days of the conference  the representatives of CAKE participated actively in the two panles, where they presented some results of the work made out at the LIFE Climate CAKE PL project.  

On the 24 th November 2021 during the Session 4: Modelling complex systems for policy, Maciej Pyrka, LIFE Climate CAKE PL – CGE modelling expert presented a presenation entitled “Effects of the Border Tax Adjustment in the EU until 2030”.

During the conference M. Pyrka presented the main results of the CAKE analysis on the effect of the CBAM (Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism) on the GHG emissions in the context of more stringent EU climate policy until 2030. M. Pyrka presented also the main scenarios  and sectors covered by the analysis included in the report, as well as methodology and main results of modelling concerning the impact on the production in the EU in the sectors covered by border tax and impact on prices and volumes of imports to the EU.

On the  25 th of November 2021 during the Session 6: Multidisciplinary approaches, integrated assessment and model linkages,  Jakub Boratynski oraz Jan Witajewski – Baltvilks, LIFE Climate CAKE experts had the opportunity to present a presentation on the models used in the work carried out under the LIFE Climate CAKE PL project entitled “The use of an integrated modeling approach (CGE, sectoral) to support developing long-term climate strategies up to 2050”. During the presentation, Jakub Boratyński presented in detail the principles of combining individual models used by CAKE,  MEESA (energy model), d-place general equilibrium model (CGE), transport model (TR3E) and the agricultural model (EPICA). The presentation at the conference also covered some selected results concerning the EU ETS and the energy sector, as well as for sectors not covered by the ETS (the so-called non-ETS). Jan Witajewski – Baltvilks presented the results in terms of the costs of energy transformation for Poland.
