DREAM GreenREFORM-EU

Who builds this

About

GreenREFORM-EU is built and maintained by DREAM, an independent Danish institute of about thirty people who develop and run economic models.

Lineage

DREAM builds MAKRO, the macroeconomic model used by the Danish Ministry of Finance, and GreenREFORM, the climate and environmental model used in Danish climate policy, including the work of the expert group on green tax reform.

GreenREFORM-EU descends from that work. It was developed for finance ministries, planning bureaus and emissions agencies in EU Member States under the European Commission's Technical Support Instrument, and generalised under version 2.0.

The DREAM model family drawn as connected discs: DREAM, MAKRO, REFORM, SMILE and GroenREFORM, with GreenREFORM-EU as the largest and newest
DREAM runs a family of models, each drawn as a filled disc in its own colour. GreenREFORM-EU is the newest of them, and the only one built to be calibrated outside Denmark.

Funding

Version 1.0 was funded by the European Commission through the Technical Support Instrument. Version 2.0 was funded by the KR Foundation. The Danish benchmark data set was produced by Statistics Denmark.
