E-biofuels reduce the cost of achieving emissions targets in hard-to-electrify sectors
Yunlong Zhang, Markus Millinger, Fredrik Hedenus +2
Renewable liquid fuels are essential for achieving emissions targets for hard-to-electrify sectors such as aviation and shipping. While biofuels and synthetic e-fuels have been wel…
Chasing the eternal sun: Does a global super grid favor the deployment of solar power?
Xiaoming Kan, Fredrik Hedenus, Lina Reichenberg
The One Sun One World One Grid (OSOWOG) initiative advocates the development of a global Super grid for sharing renewable energy, especially solar energy. This study evaluates the…
Through energy droughts: hydropower's ability to sustain a high output
Hanna Ek Fälth, Fredrik Hedenus, Lina Reichenberg +1
Previous research has raised concerns about energy droughts in renewables-based energy systems. This study explores the ability of reservoir hydropower to sustain a high output and…
Are biofuel mandates cost-effective? -- an analysis of transport fuels and biomass usage to achieve emissions targets in the European energy system
Markus Millinger, Lina Reichenberg, Fredrik Hedenus +3
Abatement options for the hard-to-electrify parts of the transport sector are needed to achieve ambitious emissions targets. Biofuels based on biomass, electrofuels based on renewa…
Renewable levelized cost of energy available for export: An indicator for exploring global renewable energy trade potential
Xiaoming Kan, Lina Reichenberg, Fredrik Hedenus +1
Renewable energy resources are widely available, yet they are unevenly distributed globally. In a renewable future, countries lacking high-quality renewable resources may choose to…
Deep decarbonization and the Supergrid, prospects for electricity transmission between Europe and China
Lina Reichenberg, Fredrik Hedenus, Niclas Mattsson +1
Long distance transmission within continents has been shown to be one of the most important variation management strategies in renewable energy systems, where allowing for transmis…
An autopilot for energy models -- automatic generation of renewable supply curves, hourly capacity factors and hourly synthetic electricity demand for arbitrary world regions
Niclas Mattsson, Vilhelm Verendel, Fredrik Hedenus +1
Energy system models are increasingly being used to explore scenarios with large shares of variable renewables. This requires input data of high spatial and temporal resolution and…
The cost of a future low-carbon electricity system without nuclear power for Sweden
Xiaoming Kan, Fredrik Hedenus, Lina Reichenberg
To achieve the goal of deep decarbonization of the electricity system, more and more variable renewable energy (VRE) is being adopted. However, there is no consensus among research…
