On start-up costs of thermal power plants in markets with increasing shares of fluctuating renewables
Schill, Wolf-Peter; Pahle, Michael; Gambardella, Christian - 2016
The emerging literature on power markets with high shares of fluctuating renewables suggests that more frequent start … fluctuating renewables quadruples between 2010 and 2030. We find that the overall number of start-ups decreases by a third, while … slightly and remains below 1%. Several overlapping effects drive these results. The expansion of fluctuating renewables alone …

Designing a global energy system based on 100% renewables for 2050 - GENeSYS-MOD: An application of the open-source energy modelling system (OSeMOSYS)
Löffler, Konstantin; Hainsch, Karlo; Burandt, Thorsten; … - 2017
This paper develops a path for the global energy system up to 2050, presenting a new application of the open source energy systems model OSeMOSYS to the community. It allows quite disaggregate energy and emission analysis: GENeSYS-MOD (Global Energy System Model) uses a system of linear...

Emission pathways towards a low-carbon energy system for Europe: A model-based analysis of decarbonization scenarios
Hainsch, Karlo; Burandt, Thorsten; Kemfert, Claudia; … - 2018
The aim of this paper is to showcase different decarbonization pathways for Germany and Europe with varying Carbon dioxide (CO2) constraints until 2050. The Global Energy System Model (GENeSYS-MOD) framework, a linear mathematical optimization model, is used to compute low-carbon scenarios for...
