IMACLIM China

The Network’s modelling activity on China is a joint effort of CIRED and 3E of Tsinghua University. It currently builds on the co-supervision of two Chinese PhD students that respectively develop the core IMACLIM-CHN model and its extension to distributive issues via household disaggregation. Activity started in 2016 with the 4-month visit of one PhD student at CIRED to work on hybridisation of the national accounting and energy balance data of year 2010. Another 4-month visit targeted on household survey data treatment for the purpose of calibrating income classes extended from March to July 2017.
