Sessions
Energy and the economy are deeply intertwined yet the models typically employed for energy analysis treat the energy sector in isolation while lacking the capability to robustly represent the U.S. economy. This talk introduces the SLiDE.jl package, which leverages U.S. economic data to assess economic implications of energy infrastructure planning to answer these and other questions.
