In Europe, the ongoing renewable expansion and delays in the planned grid extension have intensified the discussion about an adequate electricity market design. Against this background, we jointly apply an agent-based electricity market model and an optimal power flow model to investigate the...

Electricity markets are currently going through a phase of agitating transition, which is mainly characterized by an increasing share of fluctuating renewable energies. Among policy makers, this has led to growing concerns about generation adequacy and often to the introduction of different...

France wants to become carbon-neutral by 2050. Renewable energies and nuclear power are expected to make the main contribution to this goal. However, the average age of nuclear power plants is approaching 37 years of operation in 2022, which is likely to lead to increased outages and expensive...

Machine learning and agent-based modeling are two popular tools in energy research. In this article, we propose an innovative methodology that combines these methods. For this purpose, we develop an electricity price forecasting technique using artificial neural networks and integrate the novel...

Anfang 2019 wurde beim Umweltbundesamt das Regionalnachweisregister ins Leben gerufen, mit dessen Hilfe Energieversorger die Regionalität einer Stromlieferung gegenüber ihren Kunden ausweisen können. Doch auch ohne Regionalnachweisregister wird teilweise mit der Regionalität von Stromtarifen...
