Strategy development for energy systems analysis

The Energy Systems Catapult (ESC) aims to help UK businesses to develop products and services to serve future energy systems.

ESC asked E4tech for support with the strategy for its Whole Systems Strategy Analysis function, through identifying how scenario modelling has translated into roadmap development for different energy sectors and technologies in the UK.

To do this, we reviewed over 150 scenarios, transition pathways, and roadmaps in the UK energy sector to identify common themes, approaches, actors, as well as any gaps in coverage of the sector. We then explored how this type of information could be used in identifying areas for investment, and informing policy decisions.
