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...

A flexible coupling of power and heat sectors can contribute to both renewable energy integration and decarbonization. We present a literature review of model-based analyses in this field, focusing on residential heating. We compare geographical and temporal research scopes and identify...

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. We find that flexible electric heaters generally...

Im Kontext der Energiewende stellt sich die Frage, ob elektrische Speicherheizungen einen Beitrag zur verstärkten Nutzung der fluktuierenden Wind- und Solarenergie und zur Emissionsminderung im Raumwärmebereich leisten können. Im Rahmen eines europäischen Forschungsprojekts wurde am DIW...
