In this paper, we introduce the combination of an energy-process model with the geometric distributed lag demand, called the energy-GDL process model, as well as its solution technique. In an energy-GDL process model, the demand is represented by a function of the prices not only in the current...

The Waterloo Energy Modelling System (WATEMS) is a spreadsheet-based tool for the creation and maintenance of mathematical programming models of energy supplies and demands. Unlike the approach of general purpose matrix generators, WATEMS restricts the modeller to network constraints and just a...

We discuss a model that involves the use of linear programming to calculate the least costly configuration of the energy system in the province of Ontario in Canada for the year 2021. We identify some desirable changes in energy technologies and fuels, compared with the present, and we analyze...
