The TIMES-GEO model is an open-source, global energy system model covering energy systems dynamics for 31 regions of which 16 countries and 15 regional aggregates. The model has been developed by University College Cork and E4SMA in the context of the CHIMERA project. The model finds the least-cost pathway to explore the evolution of the world’s energy system for electricity, transport, industry, buildings, energy-related agriculture, and novel fuels like hydrogen, e-fuels, and bioenergy to reduce emissions and meet mitigation targets.
More information can be found on the TIMES-GEO Documentation.
The list of developers, contributors and reviewers is described in the Acknowledgements section.
TIMES-GEO has been developed by University College Cork and E4SMA S.r.l. under the framework of the Chimera project (Multi-model innovations in Integrated Assessment Modelling of Global, Chinese, and Irish energy-economy-environment-climate systems investigating deep decarbonisation pathways from the Paris Agreement to the United Nations sustainable development goals) funded by the Science Foundation Ireland and National Science Foundation of China.

This model has been built to better inform increased global mitigation ambition.
