Increasing the share of renewable energy in gross final
energy consumption is one of the core targets of the European
Union`s climate and energy policy towards 2050. In order to
allow transition to a renewable energy based society and to
reinforce a sustainable future development, strengthening the
most appropriate policy strategies is the primary key aspect.
Latvian district heating systems are historically
characterized with high share of imported natural gas. At the
same time there is an important potential of locally available
biomass resources. A system dynamics model was developed
in order to look for the best environmentally and economically
feasible policy strategy to accelerate transition from fossil to
renewably sound economy in energy systems with large
impact of non-renewable energy resources.
