Cascading Failures and Critical Infrastructures in Future Renewable European Power Systems
Maurizio Titz, Franz Kaiser, Johannes Kruse +8
The world's power systems are undergoing a rapid transformation, shifting away from carbon-intensive power generation to renewable sources. As a result, electricity is being transp…
Mind the Temperature Gap: The Role of Pit Thermal Energy Storage in a Sector-Coupled Energy System with High-Temperature District Heating
Caspar Schauß, Amos Schledorn, Tom Kähler +3
Pit thermal energy storage (PTES) provides large-scale thermal storage capacity in district heating systems, supporting flexibility on both daily and seasonal scales. Most existing…
Pursuing decarbonization and competitiveness: a narrow corridor for European green industrial transformation
Alice Di Bella, Toni Seibold, Tom Brown +1
This study analyzes how Europe can decarbonize its industrial sector while remaining competitive. Using the open-source model PyPSA-Eur, it examines key energy- and emission-intens…
REMIND-PyPSA-Eur: Integrating power system flexibility into sector-coupled energy transition pathways
Adrian Odenweller, Falko Ueckerdt, Johannes Hampp +8
The rapid expansion of low-cost renewable electricity combined with end-use electrification in transport, industry, and buildings offers a promising path to deep decarbonisation. H…
H and CO Network Strategies for the European Energy System
Fabian Hofmann, Christoph Tries, Fabian Neumann +2
Hydrogen and carbon dioxide transport can both play an essential role in climate-neutral energy systems. Hydrogen networks help serve regions with high energy demand, while excess…
Benefits from Islanding Green Hydrogen Production
Christoph Tries, Fabian Hofmann, Tom Brown
In wind- and solar-dominated energy systems it has been assumed that there are synergies between producing electricity and electrolytic hydrogen since electrolysis can use excess e…
Cost optimal scenarios of a future highly renewable European electricity system: Exploring the influence of weather data, cost parameters and policy constraints
David P. Schlachtberger, Tom Brown, Mirko Schäfer +2
Cost optimal scenarios derived from models of a highly renewable electricity system depend on the specific input data, cost assumptions and system constraints. Here this influence…
Synergies of sector coupling and transmission reinforcement in a cost-optimised, highly renewable European energy system
T. Brown, D. Schlachtberger, A. Kies +2
There are two competing concepts in the literature for the integration of high shares of renewable energy: the coupling of electricity to other energy sectors, such as transport an…
