Multi-country evidence on societal factors to include in energy transition modelling
Nature Energy, Published online: 21 February 2025; doi:10.1038/s41560-025-01719-7Mitigation scenarios are required to account for societal factors. Fisch-Romito et al. integrate factors related to infrastructure, actors’ decision-making and socio-institutional context into a national energy model, and, using hindcasting, show how this can improve the modelled pathways.
