This deliverable provides a short description of all updates made to the BVCM toolkit in Phase 2.The Phase 2 updates to the BVCM toolkit can be broadly grouped into 4 types: improvement to the optimisation model, improvement in model settings, improvement in the technology representation, and improvement in the resources representation.
These updates constitute a significant improvement to the BVCM toolkit. In general, the updates: ensure a wider, more detailed representation of possible bioenergy pathways raise the overall data quality and level of confidence in the model improve the user interface increase the options for use cases and scenariosOverall, the BVCM model delivered at the end of Phase 2 provides a very robust tool to identify promising resource - technology combinations to be considered for acceleration by theETI.
