      abstract = {Southeast Asia is at a time one of the most vulnerable  region to the impacts of a changing climate, with millions  of its inhabitants still trapped in extreme poverty without  access to energy and employed in climate-sensitive sectors,  and, potentially, one of the world’s biggest contributors  to global warming in the future. Fortunately, major  Southeast Asian countries are also implementing policies to  improve their energy and carbon efficiency and are  discussing if and how to extend these further. The present  study aims to assess the implications for energy  consumption, energy intensity and carbon intensity in the  Southeast Asia region of a set of short-term and long-term  de-carbonization policies characterized by different  degrees of ambition and international cooperation. The  analysis applies two energy-climate-economic models. The  first, the fully dynamic Integrated Assessment model WITCH,  is more aggregated in the sectoral and country  representation, but provides a detailed technological  description of the energy sector. The second, the ICES  Computable General Equilibrium model, offers a richer  sectoral breakdown of the economy and of international  trade patterns, but is less refined in the representation  of technology. The joint application of these two  complementary models allows the capture of distinct and key  aspects of low- carbon development paths in Southeast  Asia.},
