Understanding how energy, land, water, and climate systems interact is essential for designing coherent and resilient policy pathways. Yet many modelling tools treat these systems in isolation, limiting our ability to capture cross-sectoral trade-offs and synergies. The EU Horizon Europe project DIAMOND is organising a webinar to introduce the nexus model CLEWs-EU to the modelling community...
Artificial intelligence (AI), automation, and the Internet of Things are among the most significant drivers of change worldwide. Given myriad uncertainties for the future, multi-disciplinary research is crucial to understanding developments in this space going forward. A Special Issue in Energy and Climate Change welcomes accessible, decision-relevant research geared toward informing solutions and strategies relevant...
We are happy to announce the public release of the final version of NEMESIS-World! NEMESIS-World constitutes the first-of-its-kind publicly available, global, multi-country, multi-sector, recursive dynamic macroeconomic model to analyse the interplay of climate and economic policies. It is a system of interconnected economic models covering 22 world regions, dedicated to studying issues related to economic development, competitiveness, employment,...
We are happy to announce the public release of the final version of one of our targeted models CLEWs-EU! The final version of the CLEWs-EU model, developed within the DIAMOND project, provides a fully open-source tool to examine in an integrated and internally consistent way the EU’s energy, land, and water systems. It explores the...
The DIAMOND consortium is proud to announce an important milestone: the first draft open releases of six integrated assessment models (IAMs) that are emblematic in both scientific and policy processes. These early releases mark a step forward in the project’s mission to provide robust, transparent, and accessible tools for the global climate change mitigation research...
We are delighted to announce a new call for papers for a special issue in Futures. Given the global reach of integrated assessment models (IAMs) and other analytical tools, the political implications of mitigation and climate impact modelling as a means of projecting and designing futures have in particular been much discussed. This special issue...
On May 13, 2025, the project coordination partner, ICCS, had the pleasure and honour of hosting a guest lecture on the latest scientific evidence on climate change, by the Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), Sir Jim Skea, at the premises of National Technical University of Athens. Many academics and researchers from...
The General Assembly 2024 of the European Geosciences Union (EGU24) took place in Vienna, Austria and online, in April 14–19, 2024. Constituting one of the most prestigious conferences on climate science, the event welcomed more than 20,000 participants, with numerous presentations, sessions, and posters. The project had strong presence at the conference, with DIAMOND colleagues...
