Abstract

This article is a companion to “ETSAP-TIAM: the TIMES integrated assessment model. part I: model structure”. It contains three sections, presenting respectively: the simplified formulation of the TIMES Linear Program (Sect. 1), the details of the computation of the supply demand equilibrium (Sect. 2), and the Endogenous Technology Learning Formulation (Sect. 3). The full details of these three formulations are available in the complete TIMES documentation at www.etsap/org/documentation.
