policy role
Although GINFORS-E can be used for forecasting, the model is mainly used for evaluating the impacts of policy scenarios, changes in assumptions such as international energy prices or another change to model variables. The model can be enlarged to include more detail on interesting datasets, currently e.g. on the bioeconomy and energy technology goods.
The analysis is mainly forward looking (ex-ante), but can also inform implementation or evaluate previous developments ex-post.
