Security of supply during the energy transition: Evaluating the adequacy of the Dutch energy system during the transition to a zero-carbon energy system in a realistic scenario

The climate change is evident and a big contributor to the negative effects of the climate change is the energy production sector. Therefore, the energy production must shift towards a more environment friendly mix. Changing our energy sources to mostly renewable energy sources comes with many challenges. <br/>The way the current Dutch...

Cross-border effects of capacity mechanisms in interconnected power systems

The cross-border effects of a capacity market and a strategic reserve in interconnected electricity markets are modeled using an agent-based modeling methodology. Both capacity mechanisms improve the security of supply and reduce consumer costs. Our results indicate that interconnections do not affect the effectiveness of a capacity market,...
