Loreta Stankeviciute
is a Phd student at EPE since November 2004. She holds an EDF scholarship.
Her research focuses on the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions constraints
and their impact on the European electricity sector in the short,
medium and long term.
Two factors will be decisive for the future of the European electricity
system: on the one hand, it is the emergence and the reinforcement
of the GHG emission constraints, which will be imposed by the compliance
with the European Directives, on the other hand, it is the necessity
of the new wave of the investments for the renewal and the expansion
of production capacities in Europe. For evaluating these impacts,
the global model of prospective outlook of energy systems POLES will
be validated, improved and used in order to simulate the set of structural
scenarios and variants for the CO2 emission constraint. It is especially
important to build the coherent pictures from these scenarios of what
could be the European carbon market in the short and medium term,
taking into consideration the trajectories-objectives of long term
(global emission trajectories declined to the European level).
Loreta Stankeviciute is a graduate in Master of Science in Environmental
Sciences from Lund University and holds an engineer degree from Vilnius
Technical University.
