The macro-calibration takes place in modules/29_CES_parameters/calibration/
. The calibration itself is in the file preloop.gms
.
The aim of the calibration is to provide the efficiency parameters of the CES tree for each time step and each region. Efficiency parameters have a strong influence on the level of energy that the CES-tree demands from the energy system module. In order to avoid ad hoc assumptions on the level of these parameters, the new macro-calibration procedure loads exogenous energy demand pathways and ensures that a baseline REMIND run will meet these trajectories.
This documentation is focused on the implementation. For a practical guide on how to calibrate, refer to the tutorial ‘Calibrating CES Parameters’ in the tutorials
folder.
The CES tree in Remind consists of a tree of nested CES production functions of the form
\(V_o = \left( \sum_{i} \xi_i \left( \theta_i \delta_i V_i \right)^{\rho_o} \right)^{1/\rho_o}\)
where \(V_o\) is the output quantity (quantity
in the code) with the output node index \(o\), \(V_i\) are the input quantities with the input node index \(i\), \(\xi_i\) is the income share (xi
), \(\theta_i\) the efficiency parameter (eff
), \(\delta_i\) is the efficiency growth (effGr
), and \(\rho_o\) (rho
) is a parameter derived from the substitution elasticity.
‘Nested’ means that each output of one CES node serves as one of the inputs to the node above, up to the last level. The uppermost level of the tree is GDP (inco
), the lowest ones (the ‘leaves’ of the tree) are called primary production factors (ppf
). They include final energies (ppfen
), different capital stocks, and labour (lab
), which is a direct input to inco
. Consequently, ppf only serve as input to a CES function and there are no CES functions in the tree with ppf as their output. Nodes which are neither ppf nor the top node are called intermdiate production factors (ipf
).
In the following, the term ‘efficiency parameters’ will be used collectively for the parameters \(\xi_i\), \(\theta_i\) and \(\delta_i\) (income share, efficiency and efficiency growth). By combining all three into \(\alpha_i = \xi_i \left( \theta_i \delta_i )^{\rho_o}\), the CES function could be simplified to
\(V_o = \left( \sum_{i} \alpha_i V_{i}^{\rho_o} \right)^{1/\rho_o}.\)
However, we keep the split into the three components for the following reasons:
The derivative of the CES function with respect to one of its input quanities \(V_i\) can be calculated as
\(\frac{\partial V_o(V_1,..., V_i,...,V_n)}{\partial V_i}\) \(= \xi_i \theta_i \delta_i \ V_o^{1 - \rho_o} \ \left(\theta_i \delta_i V_i\right)^{\rho_o - 1}.\)
The CES function is a homogenous function of degree one. This entails (following Euler’s homogeneous function theorem) that the output is equal to the sum of derivative times quantity of each input
\(V_o = \sum_{i} \frac{\partial V_o}{\partial V_i} V_i\)
This motivates to interpret the derivative of \(\frac{\partial V_o}{\partial V_i} =: \pi_i\) as the price of \(V_i\) in terms of \(V_o\). We denote it by \(\pi_i\). The output is then equal to the sum of inputs valued at their price, i.e.
\(V_o = \sum_{i} \pi_i V_i.\)
In Remind, the elasticities of substitution and thus \(\rho\) are prescribed ad-hoc. The quantities \(V\) are variables which are optimized in a run (except for labour). The efficiency parameters are determined in the calibration. More precisely,
The calibration adapts the efficiency parameters of the CES function so that precribed target trajectories for all inputs to the CES tree (FE and capital) and output (GDP, named inco
) are met.
The target trajectories are usually provided by EDGE models for the different sectors.
The calibration works in several iterations, each consisting of one Remind run. In each iteration, the efficiency parameters are adjusted such that the target trajectories are met with the prices of the primary production factors (ppf) from the previous iteration. So the two steps of an iteration loop are:
Each iteration only differs from the others in the prices that are provided to the calibration. They represent the feedback from the energy system module. The assumption is that by adjusting the efficiency parameters in each iteration, the efficiency parameters and prices converge towards a stable coherent value.
The following paragraphs describe the calculations happening in each of the iteration i.e in preloop.gms
. They can be summarized in five steps:
These steps are now described in more detail.
Ppf prices are computed from CES node quantities which are read in from the previous iteration from an input.gdx
file. In the first iteration, there is no previous iteration, but a file from a previous different run can be used instead, provided that the structure of the CES tree is the same, such that all needed quantities were computed in that previous run.
In the first iteration, for a new CES tree structure, there is no gdx file from a previous run that could provide directly the CES node quantities needed for calculation of prices. Therefore, exogenous prices must be provided. Switch cfg$gms$c_CES_calibration_new_structure
to 1 in config/default.cfg
in case you want to use exogenous prices for the first iteration (If you have a new structure and do not set this switch to 1, you will get an error, as not all necessary prices are found).
For other iterations, or if the structure is the one from the input.gdx
, the equilibrium prices will be computed. They are computed as the derivative of GDP in terms of each ppf input: The prices \(\pi_i\) are calculated as in the formula obove. They are derivatives of a node with respect to its direct input nodes in the level below \(\partial V_o / \partial V_i\). What we want, however, is the derivative of GDP (the topmost node) with respect to the ppf (the nodes at the very bottom). So we apply the chain rule: The derivatives of each level of the CES-tree must be multiplied to obtain the desired derivative of GDP w.r.t. ppf. As an example, if one branch of the CES tree is inco
- en
- industry
- cement
- eekcement
, then the price of eekcement
is calculated as
\(\frac{\partial V_{inco}}{\partial V_{eekcement}} = \frac{\partial V_{inco}}{\partial V_{en}} \frac{\partial V_{en}}{\partial V_{industry}} \frac{\partial V_{industry}}{\partial V_{cement}} \frac{\partial V_{cement}}{\partial V_{eekcement}} = \pi_{en} \pi_{industry} \pi_{cement} \pi_{eekcement}\)
We do this as a propagation from the top node (inco
) down the whole tree, where we iteratively calculate each derivative of inco
as the product of all derivatives above the node, so e.g. we first compute \(\frac{\partial V_{inco}}{\partial V_{industry}} = \frac{\partial V_{inco}}{\partial V_{en}} \frac{\partial V_{en}}{\partial V_{industry}}\) and then, using that value, we calculate \(\frac{\partial V_{inco}}{\partial V_{cement}} = \frac{\partial V_{inco}}{\partial V_{industry}} \frac{\partial V_{industry}}{\partial V_{cement}}\), and so on, until we obtain ppf prices on the last level in terms of GDP.
Afterwards, the prices of the intermediate production factors (ipf
) are set to one, since they are now already factored in at the ppf level. Setting ipf prices to one means that the prices \(pi_i\) of ppf
in terms of their direct output correspond to their price in terms of GDP. (In later steps, efficiencies will be adapted to fit these newly prescribed prices.)
In a subsequent step, prices are then smoothed in the early years of the model.
Ppf quantity target trajectories are given as input to the calibration, but ipf trajectories are not given. We determine them from the equation
\(V_o = \sum_{i} \pi_i V_i \qquad \forall o \in \text{ipf}\)
which was derived above. We have calculated all prices and the quantities at ppf level, so we can move up the CES tree level by level from the ppf to compute quantities for ipf. We don’t do this for the last level inco
, as it would yield a trajectory for income
which differs from the one we prescribed. We will deal with that later.
We have computed prices in step 1 which we precribe. Now we have to ensure that the derivatives of our CES functions are equal to these new prices. We do this by adjusting the efficiencies. We set the efficiency growth to one to simplify the computation. (We will later split this efficiency into a time-constant 2005 efficiency and a time-dependent efficiency growth.) The total efficiency now consists of the two parameters income share \(\xi_i\) and efficiency parameter \(\theta_i\). Inserting this simplification \(\detla_i=1\) into the CES derivative yields
\(\pi_i = \xi_i \theta_i \ V_o^{1 - \rho_o} \ \left(\theta_i V_i\right)^{\rho_o - 1}\)
which we can transform to
\(\xi_i \theta_i^{\rho_o} = \pi_i \frac{V_i}{V_o} \left(\frac{V_o}{V_i}\right)^{\rho_o}\)
As stated above, the split of the total efficiency into \(\xi_i\) and \(\theta_i\) is not needed for mathematical reasons. Here, this means that we have to degrees of freedom to fulfill one equation, the system is underdetermined and we have different combinations of \(\xi_i\) and \(\theta_i\) that fulfill it. We choose
We use these values to update the efficiencies \(\xi_i\) and \(\theta_i\) of all nodes except for lab
.
The top level (out: GDP; in: Labour, Aggregated Energy and Capital) is a special case: The quantity trajectory of the output inco
is prescribed exogenously. The quantity trajectories of capital and labour are also prescribed, as they are ppf. From the last steps, we know the quantity and price of energy, as well as the (equilibrium) price of capital.
The labour price will be the adjustment variable. So we don’t use the equilibrium price from the last iteration for labour, instead we solve the equation
\(V_o = \sum_{i} \pi_i V_i\)
for the new price of labour. From this, we can compute the efficiencies for labour as in the step above. (From the information given in this tutorial, switching this step with the previous one would make sense. However, some consistency checks are performed in between, which makes this order necessary.)
The efficiency growth, which was set to one for simplicity, is now re-introduced: For all inputs but capital, the changes over time of \(\xi\) and \(\theta\) are put into \(\delta\). \(\xi\) and \(\theta\) are thus made constant at their 2005 levels. The efficiency growth parameter captures both the growth in efficiency and in the income share. So, this is the only time-variant parameter.
\(\delta_i(t) = \frac{\theta_i(t)}{\theta_i(t_0)} \left(\frac{\xi_i(t)}{\xi_i(t_0)}\right)^{1 / \rho_o}\)
on all CES nodes.
The CES nest cannot be calibrated on two levels lying one upon the other, as prescribing an additional quantity trajectory would make the equation system over-determined. Recall that we already calibrate to two levels above each other (ppf and inco), but we resolved the over-determined system by introducing the additional degree of freedom of labour price.
Currently, in the industry part of the tree, both the subsector outputs (members of industry_ue_calibration_target_dyn37
) and the ppf are calibrated to. This works in the following way (this documentation is only for the case c_CES_calibration_industry_FE_target == 1
):
The ‘main’ calibration described above is only carried out down to the UE level. Everything below is left out at first. The part of the tree below UE is then treated in a separate calibration, which follows after the main one in preloop.gms
under the label Beyond Calibration
. The same steps as the one above are carried out for this. For this lower part of the tree, the UE are the topmost nodes and the ppfen and ppfkap are the inputs. Since the labour price is missing as an additional degree of freedom to match the trajectroy of the topmost node, a different approach is taken: All ppfen (not ppfkap) input prices are mutliplied with the same factor (the ratio of prescribed to computed UE quantity, minus the ppfkap share), such that the quantity trajectories are met for UE.
Putty-Clay is currently mainly used in the buildings module.
It is possible to introduce segments of the CES tree which are subject to putty-clay dynamics, i.e. the model at time t
will substitute between increments of the variables. The aggregate level of the variable will be the sum of the increment from the CES and the depreciated past aggregate level. This mechanism limits the extent to which the energy demand can be reduced in response to higher energy prices.
To treat some CES sections as putty-clay, the set items should be included to in_putty
and ppf_putty
for the lowest level of the putty-clay section. In addition, depreciation rates should be defined for the putty variables. For consistency, it is advisable to use identical depreciation rates for inputs and outputs in the same CES function.
Currently, the calibration script has not been tested for a putty-clay structure that is in the beyond_calib
part.
The Powerpoint file attached gives some more explanations.
To implement perfectly complementary factors, you should include the factors in the set in_complements
. In addition, the elasticity of substitution between these factors should be set to INF
(which is counter-intuitive). Prices of complementary inputs are set to 1, so that the output is equal to the sum of inputs (reason why the substitution elasticity should be INF), which makes sense for energetic entities. It would however be possible to change this (by choosing another elasticity of substitution) without harming the calibration.
In the model, the complementary factors are subject to a constraint (q01_prodCompl
or q01_prodCompl_putty
), so that each variable is computed by multiplying a key variable of the CES function by a given factor. The calibration computes this factor for each period.
Normally, the elasticities of substitution are prescribed as an ad-hoc guess in the according modules.
However, for some CES nodes (currently only in the services_with_capital
realization of the buildings module), it is estimated with technological data instead.
To this end, equations are defined in the file equations.gms
, and a corresponding model minimizing an error is solved in preloop.gms
to best fit the data. The according section is labeled “compute elasticities of substitution” in the source code.
