Adding value with CLEWs: modelling the energy system and its interdependencies for Mauritius

This research paper demonstrates the utility of an integrated analytical approach—linking climate, land use, energy, and water (CLEWs) systems—by comparing it to separate assessments in a case study focused on Mauritius.

• The paper argues that while climate, energy, water, and land-use systems are closely integrated, policy-making typically occurs within separate institutional entities using disconnected assessments of individual resource systems.
• Using Mauritius as a case study, the research shows that an integrated assessment approach reveals dynamics that separate assessments overlook, specifically regarding the value of ethanol generation, the impact of rainfall reductions, and future land-use changes in scenarios extending to 2030.
