How to use models to make informed policy decisions: Tracking progress towards Fit for 55 and REPowerEU
The goal of the workshop series is to facilitate exchange on the current challenges in relation to the use of modelling tools in each stage of the policy cycle, design, planning and evaluation.
This second policy workshop focuses on the monitoring interface from the perspective of policy makers and modellers. It discusses how such interface could be improved in the future.
Using the new EU Energy Directive as a framing policy, the examples presented and discussed in the workshop will illustrate how counterfactual analyses can support decision making processes on energy taxation and subsidies. The presentations will also shed light on the challenges of multilevel governance structures involving local, national and EU levels, often with disconnected goals and challenges.
The framing policy questions are as follows:
-
How to use models to make informed policy decisions (decide on what to do and how to do it at various levels)?
-
How to use models to evaluate policy decisions (monitoring and evaluation)?
