A model that provides a systematic framework for mapping trends and anticipating change in energy needs, particularly as they correspond to alternative scenarios for socioeconomic and technological development. It takes into account different types of energy forms (including traditional fuels) in all economic and consuming sectors/subsectors at end-use level. MAED was designed to help energy analysts and decision makers in analyzing future energy demand for building sustainable energy systems. It is a simulation model, best applicable for the medium and long term analysis at country or regional levels, based on the bottom up scenario approach. It reflects the structural changes in energy demand, by means of detailed analysis of social, economic, and technological factors.
