1. Background
1.1 Purpose and intended use
The En-ROADS simulator is a simple energy system model intended for interactive scenario exploration. It helps users to think about:
Dynamics of capital stock turnover
Growth, energy intensity and carbon intensity (elements of the Kaya identity) as drivers of emissions
Implications of technological lock-in to particular technologies
Effective combinations of supply-side vs. demand-side, or technology-driven vs. incentive-driven policies
The scale of economic and emissions changes required to meet climate goals
In the interest of simplicity, the model includes only simple structures for economic feedbacks, primarily the effect of energy prices on the growth rate of the aggregate economy and the impacts of climate on the economy. Due to the lack of rigour to date in calibration of these feedbacks, it is not yet suitable for exploring optimal tradeoffs between mitigation and climate impacts.
2. Model structure overview
2.1 Simulation method
En-ROADS simulations run from the year 1990 through the year 2100. Model values are updated every 0.125 years (∆t) and reported every 0.25 years. The very short ∆t is necessary to avoid model error resulting from the stiffness in the system, i.e., both short and long term dynamics.
The model is an ordinary differential equation system, solved by Euler integration. No intertemporal or short-term equilibrium is assumed. Decisions about energy sources and intensities in the model are represented by simple heuristics with myopic expectations.
En-ROADS simulator Model Reference Guide
2.2 Scope & detail
The model represents key processes in the energy system for a single, global region. Distinctions among regions are obviously important in the real world, but would considerably complicate the simple accounting framework of the model, particularly by introducing trade issues, rendering it less useful for rapid scenario experimentation. Figure 2.1 summarizes the energy flows through the system.

3. Formulation of Demand1
3.1 Population, GDP, and Capital
The demand sector defines the global energy demand for mobile (transportation), residential and commercial, and industry end uses, all of which may be met by electric and non-electric carriers. The model determines the energy demand according to the stock of energy-consuming capital and its associated energy requirements.
Capital grows according to GDP as calculated by specified population scenarios and GDP per capita rates. The capital-output ratio is assumed to be fixed such that capital and GDP rates are equivalent. However, this assumption is no longer valid if the sensitivity parameters of feedback to capital-
1 In this section sub-models are written in bold, and model variables are written in italic.
En-ROADS simulator Model Reference Guide
output ratio are changed from the default of 0. Energy requirements are embodied in the capital stock at the time of investment, which introduces a lag between the energy intensity of new capital and the average energy intensity of the capital stock.
The energy intensity of new capital is governed by a response to the average market price of energy carriers and an exogenous user-specified technology trend.
The demand sector includes energy intensity of new and average energy consuming capital, which is disaggregated into three vintages, original energy requirements of each vintage, and the actual energy requirements of each vintage accounting for retrofits. The model structure is shown in Figure 3.14 through Figure 3.8. Capital and energy requirements of that capital are disaggregated by end use (residential & commercial, industry, and mobile), as well as by carrier (nonelectric and electric). The nonelectric carrier is further disaggregated by fuel type (coal, oil, gas, and biofuels). The model carefully tracks final and primary energy demand, where the former is the energy needed to meet demand and the latter is the energy needed to be generated to meet demand accounting for thermal efficiency that is less than 100% and other losses.

3.2 Fuel and Carrier Choice
Desired capital is met with electric and nonelectric energy consuming capital. The nonelectric capital is fuel-dependent. The choice between the nonelectric and electric carriers is made in the Carrier choice sector, while the choice between each fuel type for the nonelectric carrier is made in the Fuel choice sector, shown in Figure 3.6 and Figure 3.7.
Shares of fuels and shares of each carrier are allocated on the basis of the relative attractiveness of options according to a logit-type choice function, e.g.,
Share[Electricity] = Attractiveness[Electricity]/(Attractiveness[Electricity]+Attractiveness[Fuels])
Attractiveness is an exponential function of cost (adjusted for end-use efficiency) and a network effect. The network effect captures the impact of the availability of infrastructure (e.g. fueling points for vehicles) on the attractiveness of choosing a particular carrier.
Depending on the costs and sensitivity parameters (which determine cross-elasticities), observed market shares may not correspond with shares that one would expect on the basis of cost alone, assuming equal utility of end-use energy services provided. In that case, differences are presumed to be attributable to shadow prices associated with energy costs that are not directly observed, like the (currently high) cost of batteries in electric vehicles. These unobserved shadow prices are represented explicitly to reconcile shares with costs while providing a level playing field for energy services. Costs associated with electricity use may be reduced by a user-specified technology intervention (Future electrification barrier reduction rate).

3.3 Feedbacks to Capital and GDP
Several feedbacks to the demand sector exist, and are reflected in the model structure according to user-specified sensitivities to these feedbacks. Specifically, the three factors affecting capital that we considered to be most relevant include the rate of improvement of energy intensity of new capital, energy costs, and temperature change. These three factors affect capital through three primary feedbacks, i.e., to the rate of change of GDP per capita, the capital output ratio, and the fractional shutdown of existing capital. The GDP per capita rate affects the GDP, which in turn affects the desired amount of capital. GDP per capita growth could be hindered by required improvements in energy intensity of new capital at a rate greater than the default BAU, by energy costs greater than initial costs, and/or by temperature change. The capital output ratio could increase as the global GDP per capita approaches that of the Developed countries. It is also vulnerable to these three factors, as each could cause less of the GDP to come from capital-intensive sectors. Existing capital may also be discarded early according to the sensitivity of temperature change. Accordingly, there would be eight sensitivities of interest, all of which are controlled by the user.
1. GDP per capitaa) Sensitivity of GDP per capita to annual energy improvement rate;b) Sensitivity of GDP per capita to energy cost;c) Sensitivity of GDP per capita to temperature change
2. Capital output ratioa) Sensitivity of capital output ratio to GDP per capita;b) Sensitivity of capital output ratio to annual energy improvement rate;c) Sensitivity of capital output ratio to energy cost; and d) Sensitivity of capital output ratio to temperature change.
3. Early discarding of existing capitala) Sensitivity of capital discard rate to temperature change; andb) Effect of energy cost on capital discard of each vintage.
The demand-side feedbacks affect new and existing capital, but the degree and direction of the feedback is not necessarily intuitive.

3.4 Energy Intensity of New Capital
In the Demand sector, energy requirements are embodied separately for each fuel and for electricity. Energy intensity of each new unit of capital drives the embodied requirements. Technological improvements and price of energy affect the energy intensity of new capital. The technological effect defaults to the historically observed improvements, assuming those persist into the future. However, the user may change those rates of improvement. Price effects are determined according to the long term demand elasticities for electricity and for each fuel and the relative costs to the reference levels. The indicated price effects are delayed over time.

4. Formulation of Supply
4.1 Supply of Extracted Fuels, Delivered Fuels, and Electricity Generation
There are three main supply chains to capture the stock and flow of supply capacity of extracted fuel (coal, oil, gas, and biofuel), delivered fuel (coal, oil, gas, and biofuel), and electricity production from each of the electric paths (coal, oil, gas, biofuel, nuclear, hydro, renewables, and new, plus CCS paths of each coal, oil, gas, and biofuel). The model assumes that each extracted fuel is available only for its respective delivered fuel type. Each delivered fuel is available for nonelectric and electric use. Table 4-26 through Table 4-27 define these sources and groupings of sources.
The capacity and utilization and cost of extracted fuels affect the market price of extracted fuels, which feeds into the variable cost of delivered fuels. As such, the market price of extracted fuels affects the capacity, utilization, and market price of delivered fuels, which in turn feeds into the variable cost of electric producers using those fuels. Accordingly, the costs of delivered fuels affect the capacity and utilization of those electricity sources.
Section 5 details the market clearing and utilization of delivered fuels and electricity sources.
Figure 4.23 shows the structure of the sector. Energy supply capacity represents the installed base of usable capital. It depreciates via a constant fractional rate, without age vintaging of the stock. The profitability, however, affects the rate of depreciation. Capacity must go through the development phase and then constructed before it can be used, introducing a delay between initiating and completing the acquisition of new capacity, represented by the Capacity under development stock and the Capacity under construction stock, respectively. The amount of capacity that is planned for construction accounts for the total capacity needed to meet the energy demand, including transmission and delivery losses, plus a reserve margin and expected growth of energy requirements. The Desired capacity addition rate uses the desired capacity to be added for each carrier and the fraction of each carrier to be supplied by each energy path. This rate is adjusted by dividing by the capacity factor of each resource, requiring more of each energy path to be constructed to get the actual desired supply. The constructed supply is then multiplied by the capacity factor to yield the actual capacity. While the Actual Supply Capacity represents the amount of energy from each path that can be dispatched, the Energy Supply Capacity is the amount of energy that is constructed.
The rate of capacity completion is constrained by Development industry capacity. This structure captures supply chain constraints, for example the fact that if wind turbine orders double overnight, completion of new turbines cannot also double immediately. It takes time to acquire labor and machinery and build up other aspects of the necessary supply chain. This has two consequences: with increasing pressure to construct capacity, the effective lead time increases, and the cost of new capacity rises.

4.2 Drivers of Cost of Supply
Several factors affect the cost of each supply source, including, A baseline or reference cost, a learning-by-doing effect from the accumulation of experience in capacity installation, a reduction in cost due to the accumulation of R&D an exogenous user-specified cost reduction from technological breakthroughs, cost of fuels as determined by the delivered fuel market price and efficiency of fuel use resource constraints, source subsidies/taxes, emissions cost from carbon pricing, a premium on non-dispatchable electricity sources, when their market share is high A “pipeline overheating” premium from supply chain constraints on capacity installation,
Section 4.1.
Figure 4.27 and Figure 4.37 show general structure of these many sources driving the source cost, and thus the cost effect attractiveness. Model structures to calculate the inputs, i.e., tech effect, dispatchability effect, pipeline effect, and emissions cost, are shown in Figure 4.28 through Figure 4.32.

4.2.2 Resource Constraints
The Resource Constraints sector addresses the potential limits to available energy resources and the effects those limits may have on supply costs. The resource effect cost is a function of the depletion effect on cost and the supply curve effect on cost.
The depletion effect is dynamic, with cost increasing as cumulative production grows. This captures cost escalation with the depletion of fossil fuels. It is possible to discover unconventional resources, thereby reducing the depletion effect; however, it is assumed that the unconventional resources have a different carbon intensity, adjusted by the user. Biomass is not limited by depletion but rather by the supply constraint, which reflects the limit of production of energy from a source from the saturation of production opportunities. These resource constraints affect the extraction costs of fuels, resulting in a greater market price of extracted fuels. In turn, a greater market price of extracted fuels drives up the market price of delivered fuels for nonelectric use and increases the cost to produce electricity from the thermal paths with and without CCS.
The supply curve constraint also affects the cost to produce the electric only paths, i.e., nuclear, hydro, renewables, and new tech. Supply limitations for these paths affect the O&M and capital costs, capturing, for example, the escalation in cost of wind power that occurs as the cheapest sites are exploited first.

4.3 Embodied Supply Costs and Efficiencies
The embodied costs of supply are modeled in the Embodied Supply Costs sector. These costs factor into the utilization of energy capacity in the Market Clearing and Utilization sector. Embodied costs represent the actual physically-imposed costs, which are locked in at the time of capacity investment, i.e., new capacity development. Variable costs include operation and maintenance (O&M) and fuel costs. The fuel costs for delivered fuels are the extracted fuel costs. The fuel cost for each electric source requiring fuel is the market price of fuel divided by the embodied thermal efficiency of the source; fuel prices for the primary electric paths are 0. Unit profit, which is the market price less the variable costs, may be adjusted by a tax/subsidy and/or carbon tax to the producers of delivered fuels. As in the Supply sector, the construction pipeline is explicit but without vintaging of capital as there is in the demand side; costs are assumed to be well-mixed. All inputs to this sub-model are determined in other sub-models.

4.4 Electric Supply Choice
As in the Carrier and Fuel Choice sectors, the fraction of new investment allocated to each of the electric energy sources is a function of its attractiveness relative to that of the other sources. Attractiveness synthesizes cost effect, a network effect (normally inactive), and the effect of a performance standard, as shown in Figure 4.36.
4.4.1 Cost Effect Attractiveness
The cost, adjusted by any source subsidies/taxes drives the cost attractiveness of each electric path relative to the other electric paths. The cost attractiveness for each nonCCS/CCS couple is nested within the cost attractiveness of all the electric paths.

4.4.2 Performance Standard, Network Effect Attractiveness, and Other Non-Cost Policies
The performance standard effect is a function of a specified carbon intensity threshold and the carbon intensity of each energy source resource, defined in Section 7. The performance standard creates a soft threshold, beyond which sources with high emissions intensity (e.g., coal) are greatly diminished in attractiveness and are effectively eliminated from the investment mix. The network effect is a function the share of each energy source. The structures of these effects are shown in Figure 4.38. The effect of non-cost policies, Figure 4.39, aims to capture any legislation or rule demanding no new investment in a specified source for a percentage of the global energy needs.

5. Market Clearing and Utilization Formulation
The Market and Utilization sector uses a market clearing theory to balance supply and demand given costs, prices, and assumed market attributes. In summary, the model includes the following:
1. Extraction capacity and price of extracted fuels.
2. Supply/demand/price of each fuel, which can either be used for elec or nonelec consumption. The variable costs include the extracted fuel price from 1.
3. Supply/demand/price of electricity, where the variable cost includes the market price of delivered fuels from 2.
4. For each delivered fuel, the recent market price to the consumer relative to expected market price to the consumer adjusts the reference demand. The reference demand is the sum of the long term demand for nonelectric consumption accounting for noncost policies (Section 3.5) and the demand planned for electricity, factoring fuel losses and thermal efficiencies. The adjusted reference demand is what feeds into the market clearing of each fuel.
5. For electricity, the recent market price to the consumer relative to expected market of the consumer price adjusts the reference demand, i.e., the long term demand accounting for noncost policies (Section 3.5). This adjusted reference demand is what feeds into the market clearing of electricity.
5.1 Market Price of Extracted Fuel
The market price of extracted fuels depends on the utilization and price effects as well as the cost of extraction, which depends on technological cost improvements and overheating of capacity (4.2.1), and resource constraints (Section 4.2.2). Subsidies and taxes could adjust the profit margin (5.2.2), thereby affecting the extraction capacity and utilization of that capacity. That capacity is defined in Section 4.1.

5.2.2 Tax and Subsidy Adjustments to Market Price
The model assumes that a carbon tax and all source tax/subsidy adjustments of each fuel will be passed along immediately to the consumer of that fuel. As such, the adjustment is applied directly to the consumer. On the electric production side, the source adjustment is passed along immediately to the electric consumer of each resource. The aggregate cost of electricity to the consumer is then the weighted average of the market price for each resource and the amount of energy produced.

5.2.3 Ratio of Actual to Expected Energy Costs to Consumers
As defined in Section 3.3, the early discarding of energy consuming capital can be vintage-specific and depends on the ratio of intensity of each vintage to the total. The actual cost to consumers to use energy consuming capital is a function of the current market price to consumers of that energy and the embodied energy intensity of that capital. The expected energy cost to consumers is the embodied market price to consumers of that energy and the average embodied intensity.

7. Emissions Formulation
Energy drives the primary source of greenhouse gases (GHGs), of which CO2 is the largest fraction of total CO2 equivalent annual emissions. However, En-ROADS models the emissions more generally of well-mixed GHGs, including CO2, CH4, N2O, PFCs, SF6, and HFCs, the source of each potentially from energy production, energy-consuming capital, agriculture, and waste. The overview of this sector is shown in Figure 7.51. Section 7.1 through 7.3 provide information on each of the types of emissions. Land use CO2 emissions are currently handled separately, as discussed in Section 7.4.

7.1 Emissions from Energy Production
Energy production emissions include those from production capacity, production capacity construction, and from production use. Each of these sources applies to extracted fuel, delivered fuel, and electricity generation from each power source. As shown in Figure 7.52, emissions from energy use depend on the energy intensity, the efficiency of, losses from, and energy produced by each source, i.e., primary energy. The emissions intensity is a measure of GHGs emitted per amount of energy produced. Energy production capacity emissions default to CH4; energy production construction emissions default to CO2; and energy production use emissions default to CO2, CH4, and N2O. However, each phase of production is a potential source of each GHG, subject to the user’s assumptions.
7.2 Emissions from Energy Consuming Capital
Emissions from energy consuming include those from the end use capital, the construction of that capital, and the use of that capital. Consumption capital capacity and use emissions default primarily to PFCs, SF6, and HFCs. However, industry end use capital also emits CH4 and N2O. The construction of energy consuming capital defaults to CO2 emissions only. However, each phase of end use capital is a potential source of each GHG, subject to the user’s assumptions.
7.3 Emissions from Agriculture and Waste
Emissions from agriculture and waste depend on the production ratio, i.e., how much is produced, and the GHG intensity of that which is produced. While agriculture and waste sources default to emit only CH4 and N2O, they are also a potential source of each GHG, subject to the user’s assumptions.

7.4 Land Use CO2 Emissions
As shown in Figure 7.67, emissions from land use and land use change and forestry (LULUCF) are defined by the bounds of the specified Business as Usual (BAU) trajectory and the least probable trajectory based on a maximum likely reduction rate. Reductions reflect global results curbing deforestation and growing more trees. The trajectory from BAU is defined by the Target percent below BAU of LULUCF in two phases.
The BAU of LULUCF is taken from the default C-ROADS reference scenario. Specifically, the default BAU of LULUCF uses historic data from FAO (2016) through 2012 and assumes the global net emissions follow that of the IPCC’s RCP8.5. The BAU of other GHGs is based on the IPCC’s A1FI emissions scenario. Both variables are inputted into the En- ROADS data model as data variables and then into En-ROADS as data variables.
7.5 Specified Emissions
It is also possible to directly test the effect of varying CO2 and other GHG emissions through specified emissions reductions starting and stopping in given years.

8. Carbon cycle
8.1.1 Introduction
The carbon cycle sub-model is adapted from the FREE model (Fiddaman, 1997). While the original FREE structure is based on primary sources that are now somewhat dated, we find that they hold up well against recent data. Calibration experiments against recent data and other models do not provide compelling reasons to adjust the model structure or parameters, though in the future we will likely do so.
Other models in current use include simple carbon cycle representations. Nordhaus’ DICE models, for example, use simple first- and third-order linear models (Nordhaus, 1994, 2000). The first-order model is usefully simple, but does not capture nonlinearities (e.g., sink saturation) or explicitly conserve carbon. The third-order model conserves carbon but is still linear and thus not robust to high emissions scenarios. More importantly for education and decision support, neither model provides a recognizable carbon flow structure, particularly for biomass.
Socolow and Lam (2007) explore a set of simple linear carbon cycle models to characterize possible emissions trajectories, including the effect of procrastination. The spirit of their analysis is similar to ours, except that the models are linear (sensibly, for tractability) and the calibration approach differs. Socolow and Lam calibrate to Green’s function (convolution integral) approximations of the 2x CO2 response of larger models; this yields a calibration for lower-order variants that emphasizes long-term dynamics. Our calibration is weighted towards recent data, which is truncated, and thus likely emphasizes faster dynamics. Nonlinearities in the C-ROADS carbon uptake mechanisms mean that the 4x CO2 response will not be strictly double the 2xCO2 response.
8.1.2 Structure
The adapted FREE carbon cycle (Figure 8.69) is an eddy diffusion model with stocks of carbon in the atmosphere, biosphere, mixed ocean layer, and three deep ocean layers. The model couples the atmosphere-mixed ocean layer interactions and net primary production of the Goudriaan and Kettner and IMAGE 1.0 models (Goudriaan and Ketner 1984; Rotmans 1990) with a 5-layer eddy diffusion ocean based on (Oeschger, Siegenthaler et al., 1975) and a 2-box biosphere based on (Goudriaan and Ketner 1984).
In the FREE model, all emissions initially accumulate in the atmosphere. As the atmospheric concentration of C rises, the uptake of C by the ocean and biosphere increases, and carbon is gradually stored. The atmospheric flux to the biosphere consists of net primary production, which grows logarithmically as the atmospheric concentration of C increases (Wullschleger, Post et al., 1995), according to:
En-ROADS simulator Model Reference GuideEq. 1
NPP = net primary production Ca = C in atmosphereNPP0 = reference net primary production Ca,0 = reference C in atmosphereb = biostimulation coefficient
Because the relationship is logarithmic, the uptake of C by the biosphere is less than proportional to the increase in atmospheric C concentration. Effects of the current biomass stock, and human disturbance are neglected. The flux of C from the atmosphere to biomass decreases with rising temperatures. We assume a linear relationship, likely a good approximation over the typical range for warming by 2100. The sensitivity parameter, set by the user, governs the strength of the effect. The default sensitivity of 1 yields the average value found in Friedlingstein et al., 2006.
It is worth noting that this formulation, though commonly used, is not robust to large deviations in the atmospheric concentration of C. As the atmospheric concentration of C approaches zero, net primary production approaches minus infinity, which is not possible given the finite positive stock of biomass. As the concentration of C becomes very high, net primary production can grow arbitrarily large, which is also not possible in reality. Neither of these constraints is a problem for reasonable model trajectories, though.
The Goudriaan and Ketner and IMAGE models (Goudriaan and Ketner, 1984; Rotmans, 1990) have detailed biospheres, partitioned into leaves, branches, stems, roots, litter, humus, and charcoal. To simplify the model, these categories are aggregated into stocks of biomass (leaves, branches, stems, roots) and humus (litter, humus). Aggregate first-order time constants were calculated for each category on the basis of their equilibrium stock-flow relationships. Charcoal is neglected due to its long lifetime. The results are reasonably consistent with other partitionings of the biosphere and with the one-box biosphere of the Oeschger model (Oeschger, Siegenthaler et al., 1975; Bolin, 1986).
Eq. 2
Cb = carbon in biomass b = biomass residence time
En-ROADS simulator Model Reference GuideEq. 3
Ch = carbon in biomass h = humus residence time = humidification fraction
The interaction between the atmosphere and mixed ocean layer involves a shift in chemical equilibria (Goudriaan and Ketner, 1984). CO2 in the ocean reacts to produce HCO3– and CO3=. In equilibrium,
Eq. 4
Cm = C in mixed ocean layer Cm,0 = reference C in mixed ocean layerCa = C in atmosphere Ca,0 = reference C in atmosphere
= buffer factor
The atmosphere and mixed ocean adjust to this equilibrium with a time constant of 1 year. The buffer or Revelle factor, , is typically about 10. As a result, the partial pressure of CO2 in the ocean rises about 10 times faster than the total concentration of carbon (Fung, 1991). This means that the ocean, while it initially contains about 60 times as much carbon as the preindustrial atmosphere, behaves as if it were only 6 times as large.
The buffer factor itself rises with the atmospheric concentration of CO2 (Goudriaan and Ketner, 1984; Rotmans, 1990) and temperature (Fung, 1991). This means that the ocean’s capacity to absorb CO2 diminishes as the atmospheric concentration rises. This temperature effect is another of several possible feedback mechanisms between the climate and carbon cycle. The fractional reduction in the solubility of CO2 in ocean falls with rising temperatures. Likewise for the temperature feedback on C flux to biomass, we assume a linear relationship, likely a good approximation over the typical range for warming by 2100. The sensitivity parameter that governs the strength of the effect on the flux to the biomass also governs the strength of the effect on the flux to the ocean. For both effects, the default sensitivity of 1 yields the average values found in Friedlingstein et al., 2006.
En-ROADS simulator Model Reference GuideEq. 5
= buffer factor Ca = CO2 in atmosphereb = buffer CO2 coefficient Ca,0 = reference CO2 in atmosphere0 = reference buffer factor
The deep ocean is represented by a simple eddy-diffusion structure similar to that in the Oeschger model, but with fewer layers (Oeschger, Siegenthaler et al., 1975). Effects of ocean circulation and carbon precipitation, present in more complex models (Goudriaan and Ketner, 1984; Björkstrom, 1986; Rotmans, 1990; Keller and Goldstein, 1995), are neglected. Within the ocean, transport of carbon among ocean layers operates linearly. The flux of carbon between two layers of identical thickness is expressed by:
Eq. 6
Fm,n = carbon flux from layer m to layer n e = eddy diffusion coefficient
Ck = carbon in layer k d = depth of layers
The effective time constant for this interaction varies with d, the thickness of the ocean layers. To account for layer thicknesses that are not identical, the time constant uses the mean thickness of two adjacent layers. Table 8-76 summarizes time constants for the interaction between the layers used in C-ROADS, which employs a 100 meter mixed layer, and four deep ocean layers that are 300, 300, 1300, eand 1800 meters, sequentially deeper. Simulation experiments show there is no material difference in the atmosphere-ocean flux between the five-layer ocean and more disaggregate structures, including an 11-layer ocean, at least through the model time horizon of 2100.

8.2 Other greenhouse gases
8.2.1 Other GHGs included in CO2equivalent emissions
En-ROADS explicitly models other well–mixed greenhouses gases, including methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and the fluorinated gases (PFCs, SF6, and HFCs). PFCs are represented as CF4-equivalents due to the comparably long lifetimes of the various PFC types. HFCs, on the other hand, are represented as an array of the nine primary HFC types, each with its own parameters. The structure of each GHG’s cycle reflects first order dynamics, such that the gas is emitted at a given rate and is taken up from the atmosphere according to its concentrationnd its time constant. Initialization is based on 1990 levels according to C-ROADS 3.008. The remaining mass in the atmosphere is converted, according to its molecular weight, to the concentration of that gas. The multiplication of each gas concentration by the radiative coefficient of the gas yields its instantaneous radiative forcing (RF). This RF is included in the sum of all RFs to determine the total RF on the system.
For those explicitly modeled GHGs, the CO2 equivalent emissions of each gas are calculated by multiplying its emissions by its 100-year Global Warming Potential. Time constants, radiative forcing coefficients, and the GWP are taken from the IPCCs Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) Working Group 1 Chapter 2. (Table 2.14. Lifetimes, radiative efficiencies and direct (except for CH4) GWPs relative to CO2).
In addition to the anthropogenic emissions considered as part of the CO2 equivalent emissions, CH4, N2O, and PFCs also have a natural component. The global natural CH4 and N2O emissions are based on MAGICC output, using the remaining emissions in their “zero emissions” scenario. The global natural PFC emissions are calculated by dividing Preindustrial mass of CF4 equivalents by the time constant for CF4. Figure 8.70 illustrates the general GHG cycle. Historical and projected emissions of the well-mixed GHGs other than CO2 for a chosen reference scenario are taken from C-ROADS. These emissions are inputted into the En-ROADS data model as lookup tables and then into En-ROADS as data variables.
able 8-79 provides the general equations for the other GHGs, with each gas modeled as its own structure. The units of each gas are: MtonsCH4, MtonsN2O-N, tonsCF4, tonsSF6, and tonsHFC for each of the primary HFC types. To calculate the CO2 equivalent emissions of N2O, the model first converts the emissions from MtonsN2O-N/year to Mtons N2O/year.
CH4 is unique in that there are additional natural emissions from permafrost and clathrate and additional anthropogenic emissions due to the leakage of CH4 from natural gas.

8.2.2 Montréal Protocol Gases
Rather than explicitly modeling the cycles of the Montreal Protocol (MP) gases, whose emissions are dictated by the MP, En-ROADS uses the calculated RF for historical and projected concentrations for the default RS in C-ROADS. These RFs are inputted into the En-ROADS data model as lookup tables and then into En-ROADS as data variables.

En-ROADS calculates the cumulative CO2 and CO2eq with the initial value taken as the 1990 C-ROADS value starting in 1850. Cumulative emissions are determined through the simulation. The trillionth ton is a marker of cumulative emissions above which a two degree future is far less likely.

9. Climate
9.1 Introduction
Like the carbon cycle, the climate sector is adapted from the FREE model, which used the DICE climate sector without modification (Nordhaus 1994). The DICE structure in turn followed Schneider and Thompson (1981).
The model has been recast in terms of stocks and flows of heat, rather than temperature, to make the physical process of accumulation clearer to users. However, the current model is analytically equivalent to the FREE and DICE versions.
FREE and DICE used exogenous trajectories for all non-CO2 radiative forcings. This version adds explicit forcings from CH4 and N2O.
9.2 Structure
The model climate is a fifth-order, linear system, with three negative feedback loops. Two loops govern the transport of heat from the atmosphere and surface ocean, while the third represents warming of the deep ocean. Deep ocean warming is a slow process, because the ocean has such a large heat capacity. If the deep ocean temperature is held constant, the response of the atmosphere and surface ocean to warming is first-order.
Temperature change is a function of radiative forcing (RF) from greenhouse gases and other factors, feedback cooling from outbound longwave radiation, and heat transfer from the atmosphere and surface ocean to the deep ocean layer (Figure 9.76 and Eq. 7 & 8).
Eq. 7
Tsurf = Qsurf/Rsurf
Tdeep = Qdeep/Rdeep
Qsurf = ∫ (RF(t) – Fout(t) – Fdeep(t) )dt + Qsurf(0)
Qdeep = ∫ Fdeep(t) dt + Qdeep(0)
T = Temperature of surface and deep ocean boxes Fdeep = heat flux to deep ocean Q = heat content of respective boxes RF = radiative forcing R = heat capacity of respective boxes Fout = outgoing radiative flux
Eq. 8
Fout(t) = Tsurf
Fdeep(t) = Rdeep*(Tsurf-Tdeep)/τ
= climate feedback parameter τ = heat transfer time constant
Radiative forcing from CO2 is logarithmic of the atmospheric CO2 concentration (IPCC TAR WG1, 2001, Table 6.2). Forcing from CH4 and N2O is less than the sum of RF from each
En-ROADS simulator Model Reference Guide
individually to account for interactions between both gases. Forcing from each F-gas is the product of its concentration and its radiative forcing coefficient; the total forcings of F-gases is the sum of these products, as are the forcings from MP gases derived. The sum of other forcings, which include those from aerosols (black carbon, organic carbon, sulfates), tropospheric ozone, defaults to an exogenous time-varying parameter The values use a composite of GISS other forcings, 1880-2011, adjusted to the same mean as MAGICC A1FI-MI over 1880-2011 (Hansen et al., 2005; Wigley, 2008). RCP85 other forcings apply thereafter. The user, however, may instead choose to input projected Other Forcings categorized as 1) solar and albedo forcings; 2) ozone precursor forcings; and 3) organic carbon, black carbon, and biological aerosol forcings. The user may input each of these categories as a lookup table over time, but defaults to the MAGICC A1FI values. Mineral and land forcings, equivalent to the solar and albedo forcings and taken from MAGICC A1FI for 2010 to 2100 as a constant -0.4 watts/meter2, are not included in RCP other forcing values; accordingly, these are added to the RCP other forcings, yielding the adjusted other forcings. It is the adjusted other forcings that are included in the total radiative forcing.
The equilibrium temperature response to a change in radiative forcing is determined by the radiative forcing coefficient, , and the climate feedback parameter, . Equilibrium sensitivity to 2xCO2eq forcing is 3C in the base case.

10. Calibration and Initialization
En-ROADS bases all of its parametric defaults and ranges on several sources, all compiled in two Excel worksheets, i.e., En-ROADS Supporting Data A.xlsx and En-ROADS Supporting Data B.xlsx, both of which are linked with this document. The former includes data for commercialization and development times, progress ratios, efficiency, reserves, flow constraints, emissions, materials, and person years with all sources cited. The latter includes historical energy intensity data with all sources cited.
En-ROADS calibrates GDP, energy intensity, carbon intensity, and GHG emissions to historical available data provided by IEA, Hyde, WEO, and BP, and to projected values provided by WEO, EMF22 models, EMF27 models, RCP, and SRES scenarios. Figure 10.77 through Figure 10.85 show the data structures to determine the initial settings and calibration sets. Several figures show the historical fit, followed by figures showing comparisons to EMF projections. Sensitivity analyses, using random triangular distribution, tested the effects of varying parameters as noted in Table 9.1. The results of these are shown in Figures 9.14-9.17. Following those, Figures 9.18-9.23 Show comparisons of results using the model default values for primary energy demand by resource. The model imports EMF27 Reference scenarios and EMF22 data for Reference and for four reduction scenarios, i.e., 1 = 4.5 W/m2 stabilization, 2 = 3.6 W/m2 stabilization, 3 = 3.6 W/m2 overshoot, and 4 = 2.7 W/m2 overshoot. Stabilization indicates the goal is achieved and maintained, whereas overshoot indicates the goal is exceeded but then achieved. The radiative forcings correspond roughly to a future of 650 ppm, 550 ppm, and a 450 ppm, respectively. For each of the EMF reduction scenarios, EnROADS responds to similar emissions pathways with comparable emissions trajectories.
