Bridging the climate to energy data gap: simulated annealing for representative climate year selection
Bram van Duinen, Karin van der Wiel, Jean Thorey +1
Energy system models are increasingly dependent on representative climate input. Yet, a fundamental mismatch persists between the hundreds of simulated years often used in climate…
Leveraging Climate Services to Build Climate Resilient Power Systems
Laurent Dubus, Alberto Troccoli, Aron zuiker +1
We explore the crucial interplay between climate change and power system planning, highlighting the urgent need to systematically integrate climate information into energy system s…
Uncertainties within Weather Regime definitions for the Euro-Atlantic sector in ERA5 and CMIP6
Lotte Hompes, Swinda K. J. Falkena, Laurens P. Stoop
Certain Weather Regimes (WR) are associated with a higher risk of energy shortages, i.e. Blocking regimes for European winters. However, there are many uncertainties tied to the im…
Evaluation of 'Dunkelflaute' event detection methods considering grid operators' needs
Benjamin Biewald, Bastien Cozian, Laurent Dubus +2
Weather conditions associated with low electricity production from renewable energy sources (RES) can result in challenging 'dunkelflaute' events, where 'dunkel' means dark and 'fl…
