Abstract
Energy policy models are playing an increasingly important and visible role in
supporting both private and public energy policy research and decision making. As
importance has increased so too has the need for model review and assessment to
assist in establishing model credibility for users and those affected by model-based
policy research. Toward this end EPRI has sponsored the M.I.T. Energy Laboratory
in a one-year project to assess two important energy system models, the
Baughman-Joskow Regionalized Electricity Model and the Wharton Annual Energy
Model, and to identify and analyze organizational and procedural issues in the
model assessment process.
