Open Source Models Use for Country's NDC's

[Mark Howells]

Dear All: Very happy to point to this piece of work ... with more to follow. Countries continue turning to Open-Source models to develop their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC)'s. See below:

Rodríguez-Arce, M., Angulo-Paniagua, J., Victor-Gallardo, L., Roccard, J., Quirós-Tortós, J., Alexander, K. and Howells, M. (2026) ‘Integrated climate, land, energy, and water framework to support the Nationally Determined Contribution updating process’, Energy Strategy Reviews. Available at: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2211467X26002853

What is extra nice about this, is that it is not led by European / US / etc groups. But have been led by country teams that have built their own capacity.

Best, Mark
