The role of grid extensions in a cost-efficient transformation of the European electricity system until 2050
Fürsch, Michaela; Hagspiel, Simeon; Jägemann, Cosima; … - 2012
As an attempt to fi ght global warming, many countries try to reduce CO2 emissions in the power sector by significantly increasing the proportion of renewable energies (RES-E). A highly intermeshed electricity transmission grid allows the achievement of this target cost-efficiently by enabling...
