Beyond 2050: From deployment to renewal of the global solar and wind energy system

Joseph Le Bihan, Thomas Lapi, José Halloy

The global energy transition depends on large-scale photovoltaic (PV) and wind power deployment. While 2050 targets suggest a transition endpoint, maintaining these systems beyond…

Modeling Technological Deployment and Renewal: Monotonic vs. Oscillating Industrial Dynamics

Joseph Le Bihan, Thomas Lapi, José Halloy

This study proposes a new model based on a classic S-curve that describes deployment and stabilization at maximum capacity. In addition, the model extends to the post-growth platea…

Self-organization versus top-down planning in the evolution of a city

Marc Barthelemy, Patricia Bordin, Henri Berestycki +1

Interventions of central, top-down planning are serious limitations to the possibility of modelling the dynamics of cities. An example is the city of Paris (France), which during t…
