policy support

policy role

The model is tailored to chargers for mobile phones and other small devices but could be adapted to be applied to any product, which could be valuable across a range of product policies such as Ecodesign, Energy Labelling, Ecolabel, GPP. It’s main purpose is to simulate the markets (flows) and stock of a particular product which lends itself primarily to policy formulation, i.e. establishing a baseline and policy options and their impacts. It could also be used to assist in the monitoring of implementation or ex-post evaluation of policies.
