The role of hydro power, storage and transmission in the decarbonization of the Chinese power system

Hailiang Liu, Tom Brown, Gorm Bruun Andresen +2

Deep decarbonization of the electricity sector can be provided by a high penetration of renewable sources such as wind, solar PV and hydro power. Flexibility from hydro and storage…

Impact of CO2 prices on the design of a highly decarbonised coupled electricity and heating system in Europe

K. Zhu, M. Victoria, T. Brown +2

Ambitious targets for renewable energy and CO2 taxation both represent political instruments for decarbonisation of the energy system. We model a high number of coupled electricity…
