Long-duration electricity storage needs for coping with Dunkelflaute events in Europe

Martin Kittel, Alexander Roth, Wolf-Peter Schill

Coping with prolonged periods of low availability of wind and solar power, also referred to as variable renewable energy droughts or "Dunkelflaute", emerges as a key challenge for…

Power sector effects of green hydrogen production in Germany

Dana Kirchem, Wolf-Peter Schill

The use of green hydrogen can support the decarbonization of sectors which are difficult to electrify, such as industry or heavy transport. Yet, the wider power sector effects of p…

Reducing energy system model distortions from unintended storage cycling through variable costs

Maximilian Parzen, Martin Kittel, Daniel Friedrich +1

Energy model distortions may unknowingly appear and represent unrealistic and non-physical effects that can mislead optimal model decisions. A prominent misleading effect is uninte…

Accounting for spatiality of renewables and storage in transmission planning

Leonard Göke, Mario Kendziorski, Claudia Kemfert +1

The current governance process to plan the German energy system omits two options to substitute grid expansion: First, placing renewables closer to demand instead of where site con…

Techno-economic criteria to evaluate power flow allocation schemes

Fabian Hofmann, Alexander Zerrahn, Carlos Gaete-Morales

We develop novel quantitative techno-economic evaluation criteria for power flow allocation schemes. Such schemes assign which nodes are responsible for which proportion of power f…

Optimal supply chains and power sector benefits of green hydrogen

Fabian Stockl, Wolf-Peter Schill, Alexander Zerrahn

Green hydrogen can help to decarbonize parts of the transportation sector, but its power sector interactions are not well understood. It may contribute to integrating variable rene…

An open tool for creating battery-electric vehicle time series from empirical data -- emobpy

Carlos Gaete-Morales, Hendrik Kramer, Wolf-Peter Schill +1

There is substantial research interest in how future fleets of battery-electric vehicles will interact with the power sector. To this end, various types of energy models depend on…

Frequency and duration of low-wind-power events in Germany

Nils Ohlendorf, Wolf-Peter Schill

In the transition to a renewable energy system, the occurrence of low-wind-power events receives increasing attention. We analyze the frequency and duration of such events for onsh…

On the economics of electrical storage for variable renewable energy sources

Alexander Zerrahn, Wolf-Peter Schill, Claudia Kemfert

The use of renewable energy sources is a major strategy to mitigate climate change. Yet Sinn (2017) argues that excessive electrical storage requirements limit the further expansio…
