Abstract:
In this talk, Dr. Pete Barbrook-Johnson will present research using methods from systems thinking and complexity economics to model the energy transition. In particular, he will show how both systems mapping and agent-based modelling can be applied to policy questions. Pete will show examples of these methods being used, comment on challenges in their use, and plot some future directions.

Bio:
Pete Barbrook-Johnson is a social scientist, economist, complexity scientist, and systems thinker. He regularly uses research methods such as agent-based modelling and systems mapping in his applied environmental, energy, and public health research and policy analysis. He teaches on a range of undergraduate and masters courses, focussing on the economics of environmental change, and the use of complexity and systems sciences in environmental issues.
Recent work highlights include:
His book on systems mapping, a practical guide written with Dr. Alexandra Penn.

A library of new economic modelling case studies. Pete led the production of this large report with colleagues from China, India, Brazil, the EU, and UK. It presents a range of new economic modelling approaches being used to understand and inform policy on the energy transition.
