Can Optimal Dispatch Models Recreate Reality? A Retrospective Analysis of Europe's 2022 Energy Crisis Using PyPSA-Eur
Lukas Karkossa, Marco Saretta, Frederik Erhard Gullach +1
Electricity prices result from the complex interplay of supply and demand, which depends on variable renewable energy production, fuel costs, CO price, and grid bottlenecks.Bet…
Exploring carbon dioxide removal strategies to help decarbonise Europe using high-resolution modelling
Ricardo Fernandes, Alberto Alamia, Sina Kalweit +1
The electrification of energy demand across sectors, powered by solar and wind generation, is the best strategy for achieving carbon neutrality. Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strate…
Near-optimal solutions for carbon capture, conversion, storage, and removal strategies
Sina Kalweit, Ricardo Fernandes, Alberto Alamia +1
Achieving climate neutrality in Europe requires rapid electrification alongside carbon management strategies for residual emissions. Existing analyses of the European energy system…
Shifting burdens: How delayed decarbonisation of road transport affects other sectoral emission reductions
Elisabeth Zeyen, Sina Kalweit, Marta Victoria +1
In 2022, fuel combustion in road transport accounted for approximately 21% (760 million tonnes) of CO2 emissions in the European Union (EU). Road transport is the only sector with…
Endogenous transformation of land transport in Europe for different climate targets
Sina Kalweit, Elisabeth Zeyen, Marta Victoria
Road transport is responsible for about a quarter of Europe's greenhouse gas emissions, making its transformation a crucial part of Europe's overall decarbonization goals. Current…
