The spatial distribution of future renewable capacities is a key determinant for developing appropriate grid expansion plans. This is particularly relevant for onshore wind energy. Existing studies mostly extrapolate future installations based on existing capacities and available sites. As wind...

The recent energy crisis in Europe has underlined the importance of a fast replacement of fossil fuels like natural gas by green energy carriers. Great hopes for quick decarbonisation mostly rest on two technologies, hypothesized to form a "perfect match": Combined heat and power (CHP)...

The profitable exploitation of asset portfolios in the European electricity markets has become more challenging in recent years. This is particularly true for combined heat and power (CHP) generation units that are often facing must-run conditions due to heat demands that need to be satisfied....

To ensure sustainable green hydrogen (H2) production, the European Union (EU) has introduced regulatory frameworks, such as the Delegated Act on Renewable Hydrogen. These regulations aim to ensure positive environmental effects through green hydrogen by establishing criteria of additionality, as...

Facing the intertwined challenges in the energy sector of achieving net-zero carbon emissions and integrating renewable energies, there is a pressing need for innovative solutions that are also capable of addressing inefficiencies in existing coordination frameworks. Therefore, this paper...

Accurate forecasting of solar PV generation is critical for integrating renewable energy into power systems. This paper presents a multivariate probabilistic forecasting model that addresses the challenges posed by imbalanced data resulting from day and night-time periods in solar photovoltaic...

Reaching Germany's PV expansion goal requires regulatory instruments that promote new investments in PV rooftop installations complementing other environmental measures and enhancing coordination among stakeholders and alongside the building lifecycle. In great regional detail, this paper...

Electromobility has achieved a significant breakthrough in recent years, and numerous studies have been carried out in this field. However, the focus has mainly been on technical aspects, and current economic analyses and derived policy implications are based on these technical aspects. With the...

In European intraday electricity markets, a systematic zigzag pattern can be observed, characterized by alternating maxima and minima at the shift of hourly products. This price formation contradicts the fundamental understanding, that prices to are a monotonously increasing function of residual...
