This paper presents a case study of deliberative energy modelling focused on the future of electricity in Saskatchewan, Canada. Participants included representatives from the provincial electricity utility and from environmental organizations. These diverse social actors participated in defining the desired scope and output of the model, providing data and insights that were incorporated into the model, and conducting extended peer review of modelling assumptions and design. Participants then attended a face-to-face workshop to co-create scenarios for Saskatchewan's electricity future using an interactive version of the electricity futures model. The interactive model served as a platform for discussing the social, environmental, and economic impacts of competing scenarios. Post-workshop analysis indicates that the deliberative energy modelling process contributed to participant learning, increased trust and communication amongst participants, reinforced the idea that wind energy could play a greater role in the Saskatchewan electricity system, and contributed to an increased focus on deliberative engagement at the Saskatchewan electricity utility SaskPower. The process did not, however, lead to consensus on the proportion of electricity that could be provided by renewable energy in Saskatchewan.

萨斯喀彻温绿化网格:以协商能源模型为例

本文以加拿大萨斯喀彻温省的电力未来为例,介绍了一个审议性能源模型的案例研究。参加者包括省电力公司和环境组织的代表。这些不同的社会行为者参与了定义模型的期望范围和输出,提供了合并到模型中的数据和见解,并对模型假设和设计进行了扩展的同行评审。然后,参与者参加了一个面对面的研讨会,使用交互式的电力期货模型,共同为萨斯喀彻温省的电力期货创建场景。交互式模型充当了讨论竞争情景的社会,环境和经济影响的平台。车间后的分析表明,协商性能源建模过程有助于参与者学习,增强参与者之间的信任和交流,强化了以下观点:风能可以在萨斯喀彻温电力系统中发挥更大的作用,并有助于人们更加关注于萨斯喀彻温省电力公司SaskPower。但是,该过程并未就萨斯喀彻温省可再生能源可提供的电力比例达成共识。
