EFDA: Enerfy Fusion Development Agreement
(from 2006 to 2007)

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

The objective of EFDA project was to develop ad update the EFDA Times Model: from the definition of the new model trade structure, to the construction of the first draft of input file describing trades. The old version of EFDA model template has been the starting point to manage the commodities involved (dry natural gas, liquefied natural gas, crude oil, coal, uranium, electricity) into the new trade schemes in order to change the previous structure, describing import/export from/to a global region for each country, into a new structure describing trade as matrix among the countries.

Report gives an overview of EFDA model trade structure review and a description of excel files including data and assumptions, elaborations, results extraction, and moreover it remarks some open issues to be solved in order to obtain a powerful model.
Deliverable is part of the EFDA Technology Workprogramme 2006, Field : Tritium Breeding and Materials, Area : Breeding Blanket
 

LAME ACTIVITIES

The activities have been mainly devoted to the following items:

a) the set up of links with the other teams involved in the project;

b) the review of the existing documentation of the energy trades (bilateral and global markets) between the 15 regions described in the EFDA-TIMES model.
