Suggested Scope of Presentations:

·        Brief summary of recent changes in your country’s energy sector, including a description of recent key changes in energy supply and demand.

·        An update, if useful, on national concerns regarding energy and environmental security, and presentation of national plans (in general) to address those concerns, focusing on any changes in plans or government/popular approaches to energy and environmental security since the last meeting.

·        A summary of the assumptions and methods used to model the impacts of a Regional Alternative path on each country’s energy sector, as well as a summary of any key changes made to the each LEAP model.

·        A summary of the results of the modeling of the Regional Alternative path, and an analysis of their implications for each country.

·        Any special topics of concern that bear upon the modeling or implementation of a Regional Alternative path (and the energy cooperation activities that it includes).

·        Other topics, analysis, conclusions, or “next steps” that participants feel will be of interest to the AES project effort.

Country Data Set Analysis and LEAP training

Regional Data Set Analysis

Closing Discussion and Remarks

 8:30             Tea/Coffee

8:45 – 12:30            Working Session with Country Datasets and Alternative Pathways

NOTE: The intent is that this Working Session be used by participants as an opportunity to present specific aspects of their datasets and National or Regional Alternative Paths that they particularly want group feedback on and/or wish to ask questions about.  Also, Regional Alternatives will be discussed and Regional Pathways will be flushed out and finalized. This time also could be used to work on datasets with the help of other participants and trainers, or to receive additional training in LEAP.  In some cases participants will work in small groups, and in some cases the whole group may review a LEAP dataset on the overhead screen.  Participants should come to this session prepared to present their dataset, ask questions, and request assistance on whatever modeling questions they have.

12:30 – 13:30            Lunch

13:30 – 16:30             Continue Working with Country Datasets, and Review Regional Aggregation of Results

NOTE: It is expected that this session will generally continue the format and topics of the morning session.
