Gcam Go 3.6 〈100% NEWEST〉

Traditional Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) like GCAM offer robust long-term scenarios but remain inaccessible to local policymakers due to high computational demands and steep learning curves. This paper introduces GCAM Go 3.6 , a portable, Python-based micro-simulation engine that distills GCAM’s core sectoral dynamics (energy, water, land, and economy) into a lightweight, interactive interface. GCAM Go 3.6 enables real-time scenario analysis on a standard laptop or tablet, supporting rapid policy prototyping at city, state, or utility scales. We validate the tool against the full GCAM 6.0 reference scenario, achieving <3% deviation in global CO₂ trajectories by 2050 while reducing runtime from hours to under 3 seconds. We demonstrate its utility via two case studies: (1) optimal EV charging infrastructure for Austin, Texas, and (2) water-energy trade-offs in Gujarat’s solar farms. GCAM Go 3.6 is open-source and designed for non-expert users.

It features a very clean, simplified UI that is easy to navigate, though it lacks the advanced "Pro" settings (like XML configs) found in full GCam versions. gcam go 3.6
