In this paper, we develop the game-theoretic electricity market model ElStorM that includes the possibility of strategic electricity storage. We apply the model to the German electricity market and analyze different realistic and counterfactual cases of strategic and non-strategic pumped hydro...

In this paper, we develop the game-theoretic electricity market model ElStorM that includes the possibility of strategic electricity storage. We apply the model to the German electricity market and analyze different realistic and counterfactual cases of strategic and non-strategic pumped hydro...

We develop a game-theoretic electricity market model that allows analyzing strategic electricity storage in an imperfect market setting. We apply the model to Germany and examine different cases of strategic and non-strategic pumped hydro storage operation. We find that introducing storage...

The so-called traffic light coalition is facing a challenge: it has set ambitious energy policy targets, but can only achieve them if the pace of the energy transition is increased significantly. To contribute to the current energy policy debate, the Ampel-Monitor Energiewende (Monitor of the...

Grüner Wasserstoff aus erneuerbaren Energien soll künftig fossile Energieträger in bestimmten Anwendungen in der Industrie und im Verkehr ersetzen, die nicht direkt elektrifizierbar sind. Laut Nationaler Wasserstoffstrategie soll ein Teil des künftigen Wasserstoffbedarfs inländisch durch...

Der Ersatz fossiler durch erneuerbare Energieträger ist ein wesentlicher Baustein der Energiewende. In bestimmten Bereichen soll künftig grüner Wasserstoff eine wichtige Rolle spielen. Dies geht auch aus der überarbeiteten Nationalen Wasserstoffstrategie hervor, die die Bundesregierung...

Replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources is one cornerstone of the energy transition. In certain sectors, green hydrogen will play an important role in the future, as is envisioned in the revised National Hydrogen Strategy recently presented by the German Federal Government. This...

Wie für Deutschland stellt die Energiewende auch für Frankreich eine große Herausforderung dar. Dieser Bericht gibt einen Überblick über die kurz- und langfristigen Ziele sowie die derzeitigen Entwicklungen und Trends der Energie- und Klimapolitik in Frankreich. Es zeigt sich, dass die...

The energy transition is a major challenge for both Germany and France. This Weekly Report provides an overview of the short- and long-term goals as well as current developments and trends in France's energy and climate policy. It reveals that France is largely on track with its greenhouse gases...
