We examine the effects of future renewable expansion in Germany on residual load and renewable surplus generation for …, decreasing biomass flexibility and decreasing load. On average, most surpluses occur around noon and in spring time. Whereas the … surpluses in the first place by making thermal generators more flexible. Afterwards, different flexibility options can be used …

Increasing utilization of renewable energy sources (RES) is a priority worldwide. Germany has been a forerunner in the … deployment in Germany until 2030. To this end, we use a novel model, the 'Sectoral Energy-Economic Econometric Model' (SEEEM …). SEEEM is an econometric multi-country model which, for Germany, contains a detailed representation of industries, including …
