    Risking the HN hug of death here, but my own prototype of a car miles model inspired by the David&#x27;s approach can be found at <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;trafred.cardiff.ac.uk&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;trafred.cardiff.ac.uk&#x2F;

      Oh, very interesting. Not sure it&#x27;s working correctly though: set everything to ambition level 4, which takes us to net zero minus 4. Then, the following knobs have no effect: efficiency, nuclear power, carbon intensity, solar (!) and wave &amp; tidal. That can&#x27;t be true, so I think it&#x27;s buggy
