The feasibility of the energy-only market in a highly renewable European power system

The Netherlands policy on electricity steers towards a carbon neutral power generation in 2050. Among<br/>the studies that focus on long term power system research, none use the starting point of a 100%<br/>renewable power system in 2050. It is unknown if such a system is technically feasible given the<br/>variability of wind and solar. The...

Modeling the interplay between storage and flexibility in power systems

The need for a more resource-efficient and low-carbon electricity sector has boosted the integration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in power systems, especially of wind and solar energy. However, their intermittent output hinders the match of electricity demand and supply which is required for the smooth operation of the electricity grid....
