Finding the generation mix with the lowest total system cost for deep levels of decarbonisation is critical for electricity consumers and taxpayers, who together need to cover the costs of the entire electricity system. MEGS is an electricity system scenario tool designed to explore options to...

Using electricity for heating can contribute to decarbonization and provide flexibility to integrate variable renewable energy. We analyze the case of electric storage heaters in German 2030 scenarios with an open-source electricity sector model. We find that flexible electric heaters generally...
