Enhanced Modeling of GHG Emissions and Mitigation in NEMS Component Design Report

The Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM), together with OnLocation, has developed a custom version of the National Energy Modeling System (NEMS), “FECM-NEMS”, that includes additional representation of energy- and industry-sector GHG emissions and mitigation options beyond those represented in the U.S. EIA's NEMS. Compared with GHG emissions published by the EPA in their Inventory of U.S. GHG Emissions and Sinks: 1990-2021, FECM-NEMS endogenously represents 81% of gross U.S. GHG emissions; however, the remaining 19%, as well as LULUCF-sector emissions and removals, are still required to properly model net-zero GHG scenarios, which requires an accounting of all GHGs. Considering recent technological advances to mitigate CO2 and non-CO2 emissions, the Office of Carbon Management (OCM) within FECM had tasked OnLocation with creating this component design report (CDR) to address the gap in GHG representation. This report describes how FECM-NEMS could incorporate missing GHG emissions (including LULUCF-sector emissions and removals) and engineered processes for GHG mitigation.
