Where onshore wind meets forests: electricity system planning with ecologically graded forests

Muhammad Shahzad Javed, Marianne Zeyringer, Johannes Rahlf +1

Onshore wind is expected to supply much of the growth in renewables, yet its expansion increasingly extends into forests, where wind generation and forest conservation act as compe…

The electricity system value of the local acceptance of onshore wind in Europe

James Price, Guillermo Valenzuela-Venegas, Oskar Vågerö +11

The large-scale deployment of wind power is central to Europe`s energy transition but faces challenges due to its social and environmental impacts on communities. Here we assess ho…

Planning for climate neutrality in the Nordic power sector: Insights from a non-harmonised comparison of eight energy system models

Emir Fejzić, Will Usher, Ida Græsted Jensen +12

The Nordic countries have adopted ambitious climate targets that require far-reaching power-sector transformations, making energy system modelling an important input to long-term p…

Engaging young people for a more inclusive national energy transition: A participatory modelling framework

Muhammad Shahzad Javed, Karin Fossheim, Maximilian Roithner +4

Participatory research in energy system modelling can generate bottom-up knowledge to explore co-designed future net-zero energy system scenarios. However, it often fails to facili…

Beyond costs: Mapping Norwegian youth preferences for a more inclusive energy transition

Muhammad Shahzad Javed, Karin Fossheim, Paola Velasco-Herrejón +5

Environmental movements and climate strikes have made it apparent that youth feel excluded from the ongoing energy transformation process, highlighting the crucial need for their e…

Balancing Act: The Cost of Wind Restrictions in Norway's Electricity Transition

Maximilian Roithner, Paola Velasco Herrejon, Koen van Greevenbroek +5

To meet its commitments under the Paris Agreement and reduce its dependency on energy imports, the pace, and scale of renewable energy deployment across Europe must increase dramat…

Little to lose: the case for a robust European green hydrogen strategy

Koen van Greevenbroek, Johannes Schmidt, Marianne Zeyringer +1

The EU targets 10 Mt of green hydrogen production by 2030, but has not committed to targets for 2040. Green hydrogen competes with carbon capture and storage, biomass and imports i…

Trading off regional and overall energy system design flexibility in the net-zero transition

Koen van Greevenbroek, Aleksander Grochowicz, Marianne Zeyringer +1

The transition to net-zero emissions in Europe is determined by a patchwork of country-level and EU-wide policy, creating coordination challenges in an interconnected system. We us…

Spatio-temporal smoothing and dynamics of different electricity flexibility options for highly renewable energy systems -- Case study for Norway

Aleksander Grochowicz, Fred Espen Benth, Marianne Zeyringer

In this article, we investigate mismatch of renewable electricity production to demand and how this is affected by flexibility options on the supply side. We assess the impact of s…

Intersecting near-optimal spaces: European power systems with more resilience to weather variability

Aleksander Grochowicz, Koen van Greevenbroek, Fred Espen Benth +1

We suggest a new methodology for designing robust energy systems. For this, we investigate so-called near-optimal solutions to energy system optimisation models; solutions whose ob…
