We study the performance of different regulatory approaches for the expansion of electricity transmission networks in the light of realistic demand patterns and fluctuating wind power. In particular, we are interested in the relative performance of a combined merchant-regulatory mechanism...

Adequate extension of electricity transmission networks is required for integrating fluctuating renewable energy sources, such as wind power, into electricity systems. We study the performance of different regulatory approaches for network expansion in the context of realistic demand patterns...

Wasserstoff ist ein Schlüsselelement, um Klimaneutralität zu erreichen. Besonders für die Dekarbonisierung der Industrie und bestimmter Verkehrssektoren stellt er eine wichtige Ergänzung zur direkten Elektrifizierung dar. Um die künftig hohen Bedarfe zu decken, werden Importe nötig sein....

Using electricity for heating can contribute to decarbonization and provide flexibility to integrate variable renewable energy. We analyze the case of electric storage heaters in German 2030 scenarios with an open-source electricity sector model. Making customary night-time storage heaters...
