Abstract
Regional Energy Strategic Modelling (RESM) aims to develop and test a system dynamics tool that could be used by a Regional Energy Strategic Planner (RESP) to deliver socio-economic development of regional decarbonisation pathways across Britain.
The RESM will place vulnerable consumers at the core of its decision-making, whilst establishing a top-down approach to deliver more coordinated local energy planning which is cognisant of the needs of a modern, flexible multi-vector national transmission system. This first-of-its-kind project aims to deliver the first regional energy plan for North East England, establishing joined up thinking between gas, electricity and water distribution networks.
