  4. Abstract:
  5. Optimal allocation of resources for R&D on new energy technologies is an important issue in the process of development of energy system models. In this study, a model of R&D planning in energy sector has been developed and it is then linked to the energy system model. Energy system model is used as a tool for the technology assessment and prioritization of new energy technologies is evaluated with the help of this model. Based on the economic and environmental impact of new technologies, the optimal allocation of resources for R&D of new technology is estimated with the help of the R&D planning model. The conceptual formulation of the model and its integration with the energy technology assessment model will be described and the basic methodology of the model shall be outlined. Thereafter, the application of the model will be explained through the analysis of energy R&D planning in Iran. The long term development of energy sector in Iran shall be reviewed based on the results of energy system model and the impact of new technologies shall be evaluated. Thereafter, the optimal profile of R&D for developing the appropriate energy technologies shall be presented. This profile will be concluded from the results of R&D planning model. Finally, the applicability of the energy R&D planning model and its contribution to the profession of energy modeling shall be concluded. © 2005 IEEE
