And now the infamous INET complexity quiz!

Various superstar PhD students here in action:

- Parth Goel on ABM for policy analysis in India, and

- Valentina Antonaccio on modelling climate induced migration.

It’s our annual @inet-complexity.bsky.social away day!

Off to the China visa centre today ahead of trip to Beijing to discuss power sector reforms.

Using systems mapping to tell some dynamic stories about how high renewable power systems, decarbonisation policies, and market reforms might interact.

More in the coming months…

We find rising inequality between countries in terms of renewable technology costs. And that countries with lower emissions and in the global south face higher costs.

V serious justice and equity issue.

Fantastic week in Delhi talking about systems mapping, agent-based modelling, and the energy transition.

Really great work being done at WRI India and TERI, as well as engaged students joining from across India.

Very energising!
