Environmental Modelling (World Bank EM Model) Course trains participants from government agencies and the utility industry on how to use the World Bank's Environmental Manual (EM) Modeling program. It provides participants with an opportunity to simulate the EM model using the data collected locally. The EM is a computerized decision support system which identifies especially the tradeoffs between costs and environmental impacts of different energy technologies. It can track down the emissions and costs, for example: comparing the existing power supply system in a country, region or specific energy project to alternative options to deliver the same energy service (end-use), electricity for commercial customers, or process heat for industrial customers.
