Mobility Modelling Workshop
 
Location and date(s) of workshop:
Paris, 10 March 2006
   
   
Contact(s):
   

Background:

The International Energy Agency (IEA) and its network are interested in completing and publishing a major transportation sector analysis in 2007. The IEA Mobility Model (MoMo) model, including improvements and analysis conducted to date, could form a key part of the basis for the analysis and report. The IEA’s Energy Technology Perspectives (ETP) optimisation model analysis could contribute the transport sector report. The proposed analysis may have important implications and benefits for MoMo partners.
