Hourly emission factors and marginal costs of energy carriers are determined to enable a simplified assessment of decarbonization measures in energy systems. Since the sectors and energy carriers are increasingly coupled in the context of the energy transition, the complexity of balancing emissions increases. Methods of calculating emission factors...

The substitution of fossil fueled final energy consumption through electrical appliances and processes (electrification), in combination with an increased share of emission free electricity production, poses a promising deep decarbonization strategy. To reveal the effect of high demand‐side electrification rates on the transmission grid and electri...

An understanding of the surrounding energy system is necessary when using the system expansion approach for an emission assessment of sharing and reuse concepts for electric vehicle batteries. In this context it is shown that existing energy system modelling results can be used for assessing the marginal effect of a load change on CO2 emissions for...

The electrification of fossil fueled processes and applications is frequently quoted as an essential component for the deep decarbonization of the German energy system. A prerequisite for decarbonization through electrification is low-emission electricity. In the German case, this leads to the so-called "electrification dilemma", as both a reductio...

The expansion of capacities in the German transmission grid is a necessity for further integration of renewable energy sources into the electricity sector. In this paper, the grid optimisation measures 'Overhead Line Monitoring', 'Power-to-Heat' and 'Demand Response in the Industry' are evaluated and compared against conventional grid expansion for...

Etwa die Hälfte aller energiebedingten Treibhausgasemissionen in Deutschland sind der Energiewirtschaft zuzuschreiben. Die Reduktion dieses Bestandteils ist schon seit Jahren ein zentraler Baustein der energiepolitischen Agenda zur Erreichung der Pariser Klimaschutzziele. Der Ausbau der Erneuerbaren Energien stellt dabei nur eine Maßnahme zur Reduk...

A prerequisite for the further integration of renewable energy sources into the German electricity sector is the expansion of transmission network capacities. In this study, an approach to relieve the German transmission grid by regulating the wind power development is evaluated for the year 2030. Compared to a reference scenario, the development o...

Feasible scientific usage of transmission grid data requires a node-edge-model with georeferenced information (location of substations or positioning of power lines) and specific electric parameters of each included element. The paper summarizes available data sets for existing and future line sections of the European transmission grid. The develop...

Am 18. Mai 2016 hat die Bundesregierung ein Paket zur Förderung der Elektromobilität beschlossen. Diese Entscheidung wurde bereits im Vorfeld kontrovers diskutiert, insbesondere die Frage nach der volkswirtschaftlichen Sinnhaftigkeit der Förderung. Mit diesem Faktencheck wollen wir zum besseren Verständnis des Themas Elektromobilität beitragen sowi...
