Description :
Sustainable development policy is examined for the Belfast Matropolitan Area using a range of linked aggregate and disaggregate models. Energy trade-offs are modelled for both private dwellings and traffic-related energy sources. Land-use policies can achieve significant reductions in the second type energy consumption and modest reductions in the first type energy use. But the development policy needs to achieve the acquiescence of the consumer.
