Work description
The UK TIMES energy system model has been developed by UCL and BEIS over the last seven years. It is a sophisticated cost-optimisation model of the energy system covering both the supply and demand sides of the economy. It models all greenhouse gases, including land use emissions. It has provided important evidence to underpin government plans to tackle climate change, for example in the Clean Growth Strategy and the net zero target decision and has underpinned scientific publications.
There are now plans to develop a UK TIMES (UKTM) v2.0. For the development of UKTM v2.0 (from 10 February 2021 to 31 March 2021).
This was procured via the direct award on CCS framework RM3745 Lot 6: Education.
