Where to Find ICEC? - Screening 2442 Systems for Interparticle Coulombic Electron Capture

Fabian L. Hofmann, Elena M. Jahr, Elke Fasshauer

Interparticle Coulombic Electron Capture (ICEC) provides an environment-assisted pathway for electron attachment that can compete with photorecombination. Here, we present the firs…

Leveraging the Existing German Transmission Grid with Dynamic Line Rating

Philipp Glaum, Fabian Hofmann

The integration of large shares of wind and solar power into the power system benefits from transmission network expansion. However, the construction of new power lines requires lo…

Enhancing the German Transmission Grid Through Dynamic Line Rating

Philipp Glaum, Fabian Hofmann

The German government recently announced that 80\% of the power supply should come from renewable energy by 2030. One key task lies in reorganizing the transmission system such tha…

Price Tracing: Linking Nodal Prices in Optimized Power Systems

Fabian Hofmann, Markus Schlott

Optimizing the total cost of power systems is a common tool for network operation and planning. Besides valuable information about how to run and possibly expand a power system, th…

Carbon Leakage in a European Power System with Inhomogeneous Carbon Prices

Markus Schlott, Omar El Sayed, Mariia Bilousova +3

Global warming is one of the main threats to the future of humanity and extensive emissions of greenhouse gases are found to be the main cause of global temperature rise as well as…

Tracing prices: A flow-based cost allocation for optimized power systems

Fabian Hofmann

Power system models are a valuable and widely used tool to determine cost-minimal future operation and investment under political or ecological boundary conditions. Yet they are si…

Techno-economic criteria to evaluate power flow allocation schemes

Fabian Hofmann, Alexander Zerrahn, Carlos Gaete-Morales

We develop novel quantitative techno-economic evaluation criteria for power flow allocation schemes. Such schemes assign which nodes are responsible for which proportion of power f…

The effect of inhomogeneous carbon prices on the cost-optimal design of a simplified European power system

Markus Schlott, Fabian Hofmann, Changlong Wang +2

Carbon prices are one of the most prominent methods to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions and have been adopted by several countries around the world. However, regionally diffe…

Principal Flow Patterns across renewable electricity networks

Fabian Hofmann, Mirko Schäfer, Tom Brown +3

Using Principal Component Analysis (PCA), the nodal injection and line flow patterns in a network model of a future highly renewable European electricity system are investigated. I…

On the challenge to improve the density response with unusual gradient approximations

J. Garhammer, F. Hofmann, R. Armiento +1

Certain excitations, especially ones of long-range charge transfer character, are poorly described by time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) when typical (semi-)local fun…

PyPSA-Eur: An Open Optimisation Model of the European Transmission System

Jonas Hörsch, Fabian Hofmann, David Schlachtberger +1

PyPSA-Eur, the first open model dataset of the European power system at the transmission network level to cover the full ENTSO-E area, is presented. It contains 6001 lines (alterna…

The final spin from binary black holes in quasi-circular orbits

Fabian Hofmann, Enrico Barausse, Luciano Rezzolla

We revisit the problem of predicting the spin magnitude and direction of the black hole resulting from the merger of two black holes with arbitrary masses and spins inspiralling in…
