Title: Questions and answers

Content: h1 Questions about this wiki

* Why do we ask for a few words about who you are?

h1 Questions about how the tool works

* Why doesn't the spreadsheet work in older versions of Microsoft Excel or in other spreadsheet programs such as open office
* How can one see the costs sections of the analysis on the webtool?
* Could you put links to the underlying trajectories onto the wiki?

h1 Questions about the analysis

* How is bioenergy treated?
* How is shale gas treated?
* Why have you included the total cost of vehicles?
* I expected altering the level of insulation to make a bigger difference
* On the "Energy flows" tab of the webtool, why do you show losses from thermal plants but not from other technologies such as renewables?
* You appear to have costs and cost ranges for 2010 and 2050, what are the costs you use for the intervening periods?  
* Have you used a discount rate What have you used if so?
* Why are you using total costs to society rather than tax, subsidy and costs to consumers?
* The calculator uses an average CO2 emissions factor for solids, liquids and gas, how did you reach this value?

h1 Questions about copying the tool

* May I copy the tool and adapt it for my country or my purposes?
