Procedure to develop LCS scenarios
(1) Establish the framework
(3) Socio-economic scenario
(4) Collection of low-carbon measures
(5) Estimating a snapshot using ExSS
(6) Developing a roadmap
(7) Setting quantitative information of measures
(8) Estimating a roadmap using BCT
Base year, target year, area, lcs target etc.
Narrative scenario, Socio-economic parameters in
the target year
Information of low-carbon measures
Socio-economic variables, Energy demand, GHG emissions, LC measures
Schedule of measures, Input resource, GHG emission reduction in every year
Indirect measuresRelations between
measuresGrouping into actions
Input resource, Integrated effect, Shortest periodEarliest starting year
Upper bound of resource
(2) Collection of the base year information
Socio-economic statistics, Energy statistics, etc

Phase 1. Extended Snapshot Tool (ExSS) A static, accounting type model
Consists of simultaneous equations with about 6000 variables
Mainly for local LCS scenarios, but can be applied for initial analysis of national ones.
It describes relations between;– Demography, Life style, Economic activity, Transport demand– Energy demand & supply side technology, – Energy consumption and CO2 emissions from all activities within
boundary (similar with “Geography Plus”)
Quick calculation (approx. 1 min. GAMS) Can be used with other models

Phase 2: Backcasting Tool
Based on constraints and input information of measures, BCT estimates,– Schedule of measures– Emission reduction pass– Annual input resource (financial and human)
It also considers time needed for R&D, developing financial mechanism, social decision making, etc.
Integrated effect is also considered. 9

Lessons learned (Local gov.)
Difficulty of imaging far future for stakeholders
Training of local officers– At least one full-time officer – Whose background is engineering– Two years (Must be shorten)
Leadership of the mayor (governor) Collaboration of various bureau of local government
Stakeholders tend to think the estimation result is fixed number and can not be changed any more
17
Lessons learned (Technical)
Data is NOT always necessary for Designing future (Future data does not exist!)
Boundary: Similar with “Geography Plus”– Which boundary can reduce the emissions
most?
Stakeholders wanted to develop ONE scenario
18
Lessons learned (Researchers)
Local researchers must do modeling and scenario development. (Not me!)
At least 2 local researchers should be involved– A senior researcher who is influential to the
government– A young and smart researcher who is good at
quantitative modeling
