Impacts of Digitalization and Societal Changes on Energy Transition: A Novel Socio-Techno-Economic Energy System Model

“…Furthermore, the absence of retrospective data [8], the need to capture emerging energy behaviors [9], and the unfamiliarity of some consumer groups with internet-based services [10] contribute to increasing the challenges in assessing the implication of ICT applications over a long time horizon. To quantify the effect that the digital transition will have on future energy targets, an analysis that is robust in assessing changes in user behavior and the implications for the changing behaviors on the energy supply and demand sectors, accounting for cross-sectoral interdependencies, is needed [11].…”
