Different carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies likely play a significant role in the decarbonisation of energy systems. Identifying cost-optimal energy system transitions that guarantee security of energy supply throughout the process is an important challenge, as reliable access to...

This paper uses a whole-system approach to examine different strategies related to the future role of the gas grid in a low-carbon heat system. A novel model of integrated gas, electricity and heat systems, HEGIT, is used to investigate four key sets of scenarios for the future of the gas grid...
