The role of photovoltaics in a sustainable European energy system under variable CO2 emissions targets, transmission capacities, and costs assumptions

Marta Victoria, Kun Zhu, Tom Brown +2

PyPSA-Eur-Sec-30 is an open-source, hourly-resolved, networked model of the European energy system which includes one node per country as well as electricity, heating, and transpor…

Impact of climatic, technical and economic uncertainties on the optimal design of a coupled fossil-free electricity, heating and cooling system in Europe

K. Zhu, M. Victoria, G. B. Andresen +1

To limit the global temperature increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius, fossil-free energy systems will be required eventually. To understand how such systems can be designed, the current…

The role of storage technologies throughout the decarbonisation of the sector-coupled European energy system

Marta Victoria, Kun Zhu, Tom Brown +2

We use an open, hourly-resolved, networked model of the European energy system to investigate the storage requirements under decreasing CO emissions targets and several sector-…

A validated high-resolution hydro power time-series model for energy systems analysis

Hailiang Liu, Gorm Bruun Andresen, Tom Brown +1

We expand the renewable technology model palette and present a validated high resolution hydro power time series model for energy systems analysis. Among the popular renewables, hy…

The role of hydro power, storage and transmission in the decarbonization of the Chinese power system

Hailiang Liu, Tom Brown, Gorm Bruun Andresen +2

Deep decarbonization of the electricity sector can be provided by a high penetration of renewable sources such as wind, solar PV and hydro power. Flexibility from hydro and storage…

Impact of CO2 prices on the design of a highly decarbonised coupled electricity and heating system in Europe

K. Zhu, M. Victoria, T. Brown +2

Ambitious targets for renewable energy and CO2 taxation both represent political instruments for decarbonisation of the energy system. We model a high number of coupled electricity…
