Case Study "Novel flexibility options in the German electricity grid"

Germany has stated to achieve climate neutrality by 2045. The electricity sector thereby places a major role. Renewable technologies like solar and wind power produce electricity at low costs, but only provide electricity intermittently. This poses challenges to the grid operation which results in a need for flexibility options. In this case study, the influence of two novel flexibility technologies on the German electricity system in 2045 are examined using the method energy system optimization.
